What is After Sun Care?

After sun care refers to skincare products formulated to soothe and repair the skin after UV exposure. These products are designed to calm overheated skin, reduce dryness and replenish moisture lost through sun exposure and heat. Ingredients such as aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, ceramides, vitamins A, C and E, and cooling botanical extracts help support recovery, maintain hydration and prevent peeling or long-term dehydration. After sun care is an important part of a complete sun protection routine and helps keep the skin soft, comfortable and healthy.

Why is After Sun Care Important?

Sun exposure can deplete the skin’s moisture barrier, increase oxidative stress and lead to redness, irritation and long-term dryness. Without proper aftercare, the skin may peel, feel tight or become more sensitive to environmental factors. After sun products help replenish hydration, soothe heat-affected skin and support barrier repair. Consistent after sun conditioning also enhances the appearance and texture of the skin, helping maintain softness and comfort following UV exposure.

How to Use After Sun Gels, Lotions & Serums

  • Apply generously to clean, dry skin after sun exposure.
  • Massage into the skin until fully absorbed.
  • Reapply as needed to relieve dryness or discomfort.
  • For an enhanced cooling effect, place gels or lotions in the fridge before use.
  • Use daily during holidays or periods of regular sun exposure.
