7 tips for skin care after sun rays

Although towards the end of summer, the days at the beach are still warm and pleasant, nature walks continue to bring joy, and outdoor classes are still filled with light and carefree moments. But do you know how to take care of your skin after relaxing sunbathing? Imagine: you're coming home after a favorite day at the beach. You are hot, maybe the skin is slightly red and you feel discomfort. What to do?

Skin care after exposure to the sun is one of the important elements to preserve both its beauty and the achieved tan. The right approach will not only relieve temporary discomfort, but also help keep your skin healthy in the long run.

Today we're going to reveal 7 expert tips for keeping skin soft, smooth and radiant, even after long hours in the sun. These recommendations will change the way you perceive body care during summer days.

Tip 1: Cool the skin

The first thing you should do after a day in the sun is to cool down your body. Why is it so important? Heat trapped in the skin can continue to damage it even after you've gone into the shade.

Cooling the body also helps reduce inflammation. Lowering body temperature stimulates blood vessels to constrict, thus reducing redness and swelling. The result? Faster recovery and reduced risk of peeling.

Here's how to cool your skin more effectively:

Start with a cool shower. The temperature should be pleasant.

After you get out of the bath, apply Cooling Aftersun Sun Like.

Sun Like Cooling After Beach Gel Lotion is specially formulated not only to help you restore your skin's comfortable temperature, but also to take care of its beauty. It contains several extremely valuable active ingredients, including aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, mint extract and urea. In this way, it deeply hydrates, soothes and has been proven to reduce the unpleasant "stretched skin" effect.

Tip 2: Moisturize the skin abundantly

It is a known fact that the sun's rays disrupt the barrier function of the skin. This increases transepidermal water loss, which leaves the skin dry. That's why post-beach hydration is key to your skin's health and comfort.

Use rich Hydrating Aftersun Sun Like. Apply it right after a cool shower, before your body is completely dry. In this way, you will keep the moisture level of your skin optimal and protect it from drying out. Pay special attention to areas that have been directly exposed to the sun. Gently massage the lotion until it is completely absorbed. Repeat the process at least twice a day for better results.

Tip 3: Use soothing skin care ingredients

Nature has gifted us with many ingredients that can relieve and soothe the skin after the summer sun. The most effective ones that we included in the moisturizing lotions after the beach are hyaluronic acid, urea, aloe vera and calendula.

Hyaluronic acid is a substance that is synthesized naturally by our body. It has the ability to hold a huge amount of water. In this way, it hydrates the skin and helps it look more vibrant. In addition, it stimulates healing processes and reduces inflammation in the skin.

Urea is another natural element in our body, but it's also a star ingredient in after-sun products. Just like hyaluronic acid, it also attracts and holds water molecules, aiding hydration. In addition, urea helps valuable active ingredients in cosmetic products to penetrate deeper into the skin.

Aloe is very rich in antioxidants. Its anti-inflammatory properties provide quick relief from redness and irritation. You'll find it as an active ingredient in our After Beach Cooling Gel Lotion.

The marigold, with its bright orange flowers, is not only beautiful, but also extremely useful. It supports the regeneration of skin cells and has a powerful anti-inflammatory effect. This makes it ideal for after sun use. It is for this reason that we have enriched Sun Like After Beach Hydrating Lotion with calendula extract.

Using these natural ingredients will not only soothe your skin, but also help it regenerate, leaving it soft, smooth and healthy.

Tip 4: Avoid further irritation

After intense sun exposure, your skin is more sensitive than usual. At this point, it is extremely important to protect her from further irritation. Here are some guidelines:

- First, avoid rough fabrics. Dress in soft, breathable clothing made from natural fabrics, such as cotton or silk. They will allow your skin to "breathe" and reduce friction.

- Second, be careful with hot water. While a hot shower may be tempting, it will further dry out your skin.

- Third, postpone epilation and exfoliation. These treatments can be too aggressive for your already sensitive skin. Wait at least a few days for the skin to fully recover.

- Finally, be careful with perfumes. Many of them contain alcohol, which can further irritate the skin. If you like fragrance, choose a light body lotion with a delicate fragrance.

Tip 5: Nourish the skin with antioxidants

Skin care starts with your diet. Antioxidants are your secret ally in the fight against sun damage. They help neutralize free radicals that form in the skin when exposed to UV rays.

How to get more antioxidants into your diet? First and foremost, eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins C and E. Brightly colored fruits such as blueberries, raspberries, and pomegranates are excellent sources. Don't forget green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale.

Tip 6: Be careful with sun exposure in the coming days

You should keep in mind that your skin needs time to recover. In the days after, it is especially important to be careful with re-exposure to the sun's rays.

If you must go outside, take extra precautions. Wear light but covering clothing. A wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses are a must. And of course, don't forget the sunscreen!

Choose one with a high SPF (at least 30, preferably 50) and apply it liberally and often. Don't be fooled into thinking you've already got a tan and don't need protection. On the contrary, your skin is even more vulnerable at this point. The Sun Like Hydrating Lotions are especially suitable for these cases. They are enriched with a complex of vitamins A and E - powerful antioxidants that protect the skin from damage.

Plan your activities to avoid the most intense sun - usually between 10am and 4pm. If you must be outside at this time, seek shade and take frequent breaks indoors.

Tip 7: Build a complete body care routine

Our last tip is perhaps the most important: build a complete skin care routine for your body.

It should not be limited to the days after the beach. Make sun protection part of your daily routine. Even on cloudy days or when you spend most of your time indoors, UV rays can still reach your skin.

With these tips, you'll not only alleviate the immediate effects of sunbathing, but you'll also build valuable skin care habits. And never underestimate the power of consistency—regular care is the key to healthy, glowing skin all year round. Your body will thank you, and you'll be looking beautiful and radiant long after the summer days are over.
