After Sun

Amazing

Advantages: Refreshing feel, ease of use
Disadvantages: None!

I first bought this gel when my doctor changed some of my medication which resulted in rather sudden and severe acne. I needed a moisturiser that would not aggravate it and would even help it get better; after researching on the internet I decided on this. I got it on eBay for a few pounds. At first I applied too much but it was fairly easy to wipe off the excess and rub the correct amount in. It did not irritate my poorly skin and even helped it ...
...I got badly sunburnt and needed something to cool and refresh my skin as well as help it heal, I simply coated my skin in this and let it sit on top for a few hours. Bliss. I now use it daily as a moisturiser as I believe that natural ingredients are best when it comes to cosmetics, plus it's fantastic as I have oily/combination skin and it mattifies very well without drying. It works incredibly well as a makeup remover too, simply generously coat ...

Review of Banana Boat Aloe Vera Gel

Better of with Johnstons!

Advantages: nice packaging, smooth moisturiser
Disadvantages: expsensive, smelly, orange!

My mum treated me to this in the airport on our way on holiday. If you have read any of my reviews you will know I love my fake tan!! Unfortunatly I am not a huge fan of the sun and after a short while sun bathing I tend to prefer the shade, so this seemed perfect becuase it's aftersun and it has a slight tanning agent in it. When I was younger I used to take Johnstons holiday skin and use that as an after sun moisturiser while topping up my tan! ...
...activating it's not so nice. It didn't really have much of a cooling aftersun effect and to be honest was more really like a moisturiser than anything else. I was really disappointed in the colour, it made me quite orange. For the price, it's not worth it. In my opnion this a glorified version on Johnston Holiday Skin except the price is higher! If your willing to spend this for fake tan... get yourself some fake bake! ...

Review of Clarins After Sun Moisturiser with Self Tanning Action

Soooo sooothing!!!!!!!!!

Advantages: Really soothes hot skin
Disadvantages: A bit pricey

...This product is by Clarins and as you may well imagine it does not come cheap. I am not saying that if you do not buy this your tan will not be good with an ordinary product, but if you want a little luxury you might be able to afford while browsing around the duty free before jumping on your flight or if you find an offer while walking around Boots or a department store, keep this in mind as I feel it will not disappoint you. The price for this ...
...find a tester in a Clarins counter, (they are widely spread) but furthermore for the lovers of this smell Clarins has created a body spray for the summer which has the same packaging (orange in colour though to remind you of the summer!!) of the Eau Dynamisante. If you want to know more about Clarins just go on www.uk.clarins.com I would reccomend this product only because in a way I find this unique and very pleasant to use and it gives me good ...

Review of Clarins After Sun Ultra Soothing Gel

Cover Me In Cream

Advantages: Fresh fragrance, soothing, easily absorbed, non-greasy, good value for money
Disadvantages: None that I can think of

...I did indeed find it. Nivea Sun Sensitive After Sun Lotion, claiming to cool and soothe. During the evening I smothered hubby and myself a number of times, and the relief it brought was enormously comforting. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ So, about this Nivea Sun Sensitive After Sun Lotion stuff? Well, mine is a 200ml bottle. The appearance of said bottle is a little plain, but I do often feel costs are kept down by keeping fancy packaging ...
...bottle is white, sporting the Nivea logo, and some deep blue writing. The screw cap is pale blue. The lotion itself is a very pale yellow, and the consistency I'd say somewhere between double cream and salad cream - nicely fluid, but not runny to an extreme. The smell is quite fruity, best described as a light citrus aroma to my mind, which is a pleasant change to the often floral or generally ‘cosmetic’ smells of similar products. The ...
