Why use an after-sun moisturizing lotion and how to choose it?
Sunbathing is always a pleasant and sometimes even memorable moment. A pleasure that should not make you forget the risks associated with sun exposure. While your skin takes on a lovely golden tan, UVA and UVB rays can cause it irreparable damage. That’s why Corine de Farme recommends that before every tanning session, you always use sun protection and afterwards, an after sun moisturizing milk.
Why use an after sun moisturizing milk?
A few decades ago, the era of intense tanning and tanning oils seemed like it would last forever, but today, everyone knows that sun rays, over repeated exposure, can be harmful to the skin.
UVA rays, in particular, penetrate deep into the epidermis. They are partly responsible for skin aging and the premature appearance of fine lines on the face and body.
UVB rays, on the other hand, are the sun rays that trigger tanning. By stimulating melanin production, this process gradually colors the skin, exposure after exposure.
So, in addition to effective sun protection to avoid sunburn, after sun moisturizing milk soothes the skin and helps it stay soft and supple, otherwise it risks becoming dry and tight.
How to choose your after-sun moisturizing lotion?
To choose your after-sun moisturizing lotion wisely, remember this: your soothing care should always contain moisturizing agents to rehydrate skin dried out by sun exposure, antioxidant agents to prevent skin aging, and soothing, anti-inflammatory, and skin-regenerating agents.
On the other hand, since you will be using it every day, your after-sun moisturizing lotion should never contain ingredients from the list of controversial substances declared harmful to health, such as zinc oxide, parabens, or PEG. If it is free from synthetic fragrances and colorants, that’s even better.
Finally, the best after-sun moisturizer for you will be the one you prefer to apply. In fact, your texture preference is an important criterion when choosing the best product. A cream or balm may be more moisturizing for dry skin, while a gel, milk, or lotion will be perfect for normal to combination skin.
