Always apply sunscreen according to the directions on the packaging, and consider pairing it with shade, hats, and protective clothing when spending time outdoors.
Many formulas include hydrating ingredients to help keep skin feeling soft while colour develops. Always read and follow the usage instructions for an even-looking result.
Using a gentle moisturiser regularly can support soft, supple-feeling skin long after your time in the sun.
What is after sun care used for?
After sun products are designed to soothe and hydrate skin after time in the sun or after using tanning products, helping to reduce feelings of dryness or tightness.
Can I use after sun care every day?
Yes. Many after sun lotions and gels can be used as everyday moisturisers, especially on areas that feel dry or exposed. Always follow the instructions on the pack.
Do tanning products dry out my skin?
Some tanning products may feel drying if skin is not moisturised. Many modern formulas include conditioning ingredients, and using body lotion or after sun care as part of your routine can help maintain soft-feeling skin.
How can I keep my skin feeling soft after being in the sun?
Apply a hydrating lotion, cream, or gel after sun exposure or swimming, then continue to moisturise daily. Combine this with your chosen sunscreen and general sun-smart habits to support comfortable, cared-for skin.
