After Sun Products: Lotions, Oils, Gels, Mousses, and More
After a long day at the beach, you’ve probably felt your skin tight from all the sun and salt, or noticed it becoming irritated and red. A simple way to fix this is by quickly applying a good after-sun to soothe, hydrate, and provide that overall relief that only the best after-sun products can give. Discover after-sun options from Darling, Evy, Esthederm, St. Barth and many more!
How Does After Sun Work?
Many people use after-sun, but few know its exact benefits for the skin. Beyond soothing and hydrating, the best after-sun products contain antioxidants that help prevent free radical damage and minimize the effects of too much sun exposure. Free radicals form when UV rays hit the skin, accelerating cell aging. A good after-sun packed with antioxidants can fight free radicals and reduce their impact. Remember: step one in protecting your skin is using the best sunscreens with hydrating ingredients and high SPF. Step two is using a great after-sun to restore moisture and relief after sun exposure.
How to Apply After Sun (and Maximize Results)
Applying your after sun the right way ensures you get the most out of it. Here are some tips for using it on irritated skin:
- Pick the right after sun. Look for an after-sun that fits your needs: anti-aging, soothing, refreshing, or hydrating? Choose based on your skin type (dry, normal, oily, or sensitive).
- Extra coolness. For an even cooler effect, keep your after-sun in the fridge and apply it chilled!
- Be gentle. Use light, circular motions when applying to avoid rubbing your skin.
- Frequent application. Apply after-sun shortly after sun exposure for best results. Cleanse your skin gently, pat it dry, and apply generously. Reapply as needed when your skin feels tight.
After Sun Lotion: What You Need to Know
After sun lotions are one of the most popular post-sun products. But what exactly is an after-sun cream? Also called "body milk" or "creams" it’s a creamy product designed to soothe the skin after sun exposure. Its texture is smooth and easy to apply, thicker than a mousse but less fluid than oils. These creams are usually nourishing and moisturizing, helping to restore the skin’s lipid barrier. If your skin feels red, opt for a cooling gel. If it feels dry and cracked, go for an after-sun cream to restore softness.
