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 ...

Review of Nivea After Sun Lotion Sensitive

Banish the burn

Advantages: Soothes skin, moisturises and refreshes
Disadvantages: None really

...had with me my trusted Nivea After Sun Spray. Nivea is a well known brand that supplies many different products for many different skin types. If needing any assistance with these products nip into your local chemist and more often than not they'll be able to help you (well I'm very lucky to have this where I live) The Nivea After Sun Spray is fantastic because it's suitable for all skin types and leaves it feeling soft, smooth and completely refreshed ...
...and vitamin E that help to repair the skin and aloe vera to soothe it and relieve the burning. It also helps to continue to moisturize your skin and enhance your tan after you get back from holiday if you continue to use it for another two weeks. I find this more helpful than using moisturizer with the aloe vera and vitamins in it my tan has lasted longer than ever before. ~~Application~~ The fantastic thing about this product is the ease of application. ...

Review of Nivea After Sun Spray

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

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

After sun and bath...

Advantages: Moisturising
Disadvantages: None

Hawaiian tropic complete care after sun after bath I tend to buy a lot of the Hawaiian tropic products when we go abroad because i like the smell and they remind me of holidays spent in the sunshine. I had never tried this one before but decided it was worth a go because I have never had any problems with the products before. WHAT DOES IT DO? Since this doesn't just market itself as an after sun, but rather as complete body care, i am expecting ...
...small price MADE BY... Hawaiian Tropic Inc The website www.htropic.com has lots of informatioon about the products and looking after your skin in the sun VERDICT This aftersun has a lovely soothing feeling when applied after a shower when i have spent time in the sun. It is easily absorbed by my skin and leaves no sticky residue. Although it doesn't smell like the sun oils which I am so fond of, I do like the smell, and because it is so easy ...
