PACKAGING
The product comes in a medium pale blue, which to me suggests that it is cooling. It has the product description in a darker blue writing and subheadings in white writing. It has a small yellow strip, but apart from that, that ... ...the top part rounded off. It has a flip top lid that makes it easy to open and to close. I do like this packaging. The blue does stand out, and it does look pretty smart in appearance. I have noticed that the photo shows a white bottle, but it has been sold in a blue bottle for a couple of years now.
PRICE
This aftersun cost me £3.90 in the co-op. I think this price does vary from place to place, but I thought that this was ... more
There is nothing worse than sunburn. It hurts, it burns and it makes your skin feel all sore and dry and nasty. Luckily there are things that can take the sting out of it.
PRODUCT Ambre Solaire After Sun is an amazing product that you use after exposure to the sun whether you have burnt or not. If you are not burnt, it rehydrates and refreshes the skin, making it feel really soft and smooth. It is really cooling and soothing, which is lush after you get all hot and bothered. If you have burnt it also does all of the above and you skin will feel much calmer than it did.
What is really good about this product is that it is really moisturising, so helps to prevent peeling and prolong the tan. There is nothing worse than getting a nice tan, burning slightly, then peeling all over and ruining it all. With this aftersun, it can be stopped.

PACKAGING The product comes in a medium pale blue, which to me suggests that it is cooling. It has the product description in a darker blue writing and subheadings in white writing. It has a small yellow strip, but apart from that, that is it. It comes in a long bottle, with the top part rounded off. It has a flip top lid that makes it easy to open and to close. I do like this packaging. The blue does stand out, and it does look pretty smart in appearance. I have noticed that the photo shows a white bottle, but it has been sold in a blue bottle for a couple of years now.
PRICE This aftersun cost me £3.90 in the co-op. I think this price does vary from place to place, but I thought that this was very reasonable for the product that I was purchasing and especially as it is more than just an average moisturiser.
WHERE TO BUY FROM You can buy this aftersun in numerous places. Boots, Superdrug, Co-op, Tescos and local chemists are to name but a few. There are loads of places to buy aftersun, as it is a very popular product to buy.
OTHER BENEFITS This product contains Aloe Vera, a well-known plant, that’s extract is very beneficial to the skin. Aloe Vera is well known for its cooling and calming properties. The aftersun is also non-greasy, so there are no more problems with clothes sticking to you afterwards.
APPLICATION This product can be used anytime after exposure to the sun, but is at its best after you have had a bath or shower as it locks in the moisture the water has put in your skin. Put it generously over all of your skin and you should see the benefits.
SMELL This product smelt very lovely. It reminds me of warm summer holiday evenings, but that may just be because I take it on holiday every year! It is quite a fresh smell.
WHAT DID I THINK OF IT? I am very impressed with this product. This and one other aftersun (in a future opinion) are my absolute essentials when going on holiday or even at home (I live right next to the sea with some lovely beaches). It is very fast absorbed and even a minute after application there is no trace of the aftersun on my skin, just softer and more soothed skin. I absolutely love it.
ADVANTAGES There are many advantages to this product. They include the fact that it is easily absorbed, very cooling, contains aloe Vera, non-greasy, smells nice, high quality and reasonably priced.
DISADVANTAGES I cannot think of any real disadvantages to this product apart from if you are really and truly badly sunburnt, it won’t provide an instant magical cure for it.
OVERALL I am very impressed with this product and will continue to use it for years to come. I recommend it to all people, as it is suitable for all of the family. One last note, Do not use this before you go into the sun as it does not protect your skin from sunburn, it just cools it down afterwards.
Advantages: no peeling, works quick, absorbs and softens skin Disadvantages: slightly sticky
...snap open and the typical Garnier logo. It is a hydrating milk which to me sounded good because I can't stand these sticky creams for after sun that just don't loose the greasiness.
So, what it aims to do is soothe and rehydrate every 12 hours. It has cactus extract which to me didn't sound very cooling but I was so desperate for the redness to go down. I found it quite useful that on the back of the bottle it has some answered questions. It claims ... ...being someone who usually uses Garnier products I was really impressed with this product. In the past a lot of my after suns have been really greasy and also they have not seemed to cool down the skin but sting it. I tried using moisturiser on my skin after returning home from the sun but it just doesn't work after sun is definitely what you have to use as it cools down the skin instantly.
I would say this product should be used anytime you are ...

Advantages: cools, moisturises, basically does everything it says Disadvantages: none, it's great
Every summer it is the same. I forget my painful lobster-style sunburn of the previous year and convince myself I am suddenly immune to the suns rays and don't need sun cream. The result? Painful lobster-style sunburn! This year I desperately sought something to soothe my skin...
Ambre solaire after sun skin soother comes in a 200ml light blue bottle. Presumably this colour choice was to make us think of the lovely cooling effects of the product ... ...which are the words "After sun skin soother. Cools and moisturises the skin. Natural extract of aloe vera." Good enough for me, so I parted with my cash and rushed back home to apply the lotion.
The lotion is quite runny and easy to apply. It immediately feels very cool on the skin, soothing the pain of your sunburn straight away. It makes your skin smell lovely too. It doesnt leave your skin or your hands feeling greasy and sticky after you've ...

As I am due to go on holiday next month I went to buy my usual Ambre Solaire After Sun Skin Soother in readiness for the 'scarlet, lobster- like moments' that are bound to occur every evening!!
Surprise surprise this 200ml bottle of magic was reduced to £1-50 in my local chemist - obviously the best time to buy as it usually costs £7 in the height of summer.
This product does everything it says it does, its soothes sunkissed skin on contact and ... ...help to prevent the skin from drying out and peeling.
It contains aloe vera which explains the cold feel as it touches the skin - I remember an african market trader approaching me once clutching a large leaf of the aloe plant, he applied it to my chest saying 'you need this'! My family just cracked up laughing but when I realised what it was I knew I did need some so bought the real thing!!!!!
But I digress, This soother also contains guanosine ...
