How to Care for Your Skin After Sun Exposure

Caring for your skin after exposure to the sun.
10 Aug 2020

In summer, your skin is exposed to harsh conditions. Sun, sand, wind, salt water ... all of these factors can damage and irritate the skin. The solution for regeneration: applying a restorative aftersun skincare product.


After sun, rehydrate at the end of the day with lotion

To protect the hydrolipidic film and the protective barrier of the epidermis, application of an after­sun skincare product is an essential summertime routine. Enriched with lipid replenishing agents, Posthelios smooth restorative gel helps this film to repair itself. Apply it to all areas exposed after your evening shower. Your skin will be nourished and hydrated, supple and soft.


Soothe redness after sun burn

Even though we all know the importance of effective protection to prevent solar erythema, better known as sunburn, sometimes our skin is red and hot after a day at the beach. To soothe this reaction, Posthelios is enriched with soothing agents to provide immediate relief.


Choose the right protection to prevent sunburn

With the Anthelios range, you get a high protection factor with textures suited to all skin types and all conditions of exposure.


To prolong your tan when you return

Lastly, don't forget that using aftersun care can will help create a gradual and even fade of tan. Daily use of an after­sun skincare product such as Posthelios, for up to several weeks after your vacation, will help you maintain your healthy glow.


The benefits of La Roche­-Posay's Thermal Spring Water

To soothe skin that has been irritated by the sun, Thermal spring water by La Roche-­Posay is also an ideal solution. Its unique combination of minerals and trace elements gives it properties that are naturally anti­oxidant and soothing.
