This week’s Beauty 101 is all about looking after skin post-sun exposure. Using an after sun treatment not only protects skin from dehydration and damage, but it can also help prolong a tan. From lotions and rich creams to light gels and sprays, look out for ingredients such as aloe vera, vitamin E and rosehip to help nourish sun-stressed skin.
Dr. Hauschka After Sun is a rich, cooling lotion that helps the skin to recover and can help to prolong a tan after a holiday. The readily absorbed lotion contains carrot and rosehip, as well as moisture-rich extracts of ice plant and quince seed.
