Let’s face it — no matter how militant you are about taking care of your skin or how much sunscreen you slather on before stepping foot outside, sometimes sunburns happen. After all, you’re not a vampire, and when the sun is blazing you can’t very well just hole up indoors and wait for a perfectly pretty day to pass for the sake of your skin. So whether you’re purposely basking in the sun (I won’t judge), or just suffering from some accidentally scorching, you can still help out your thirsty skin after the fact with after-sun lotions!
After-sun lotions help soothe burns and prevent worsening conditions like peeling or blistering, and revive dried, parched skin to keep it soft and moisturized despite prolonged exposure. For example, Estee Lauder’s Bronze Goddess lotion contains aloe butter and coconut butter to relieve, hydrate, and enhance the appearance of a tan rather than a lobster-hued burn. Hampton Sun’s After Sun moisturizer, available at Sephora, provides a cooling sensation upon application for extra relief! So the next time you’re suffering from a sunburn, don’t forget to help salvage your skin with a soothing product!
