When you are out flaunting yourself on the beaches and in the pools of your holiday destinations this year, remember that day protection is only half of the key to a successful tan once you are home. How often have you come out of the sun during the day and felt itchy? You ignore it and just feel it is tightness from the day of toiling on the sand. You need to use an after sun to replace the moisture lost during the day. Otherwise that glorious tan you spent so much money to achieve will flake off 2 days after your return. I have applied aftersun now for about 15 years, even during days in our British sun and think I must have tried most of the brands. I have now found the ideal brand and want to share it with you. E45 After Sun Lotion is by far the best at replacing the skin's natural defences.
E45 have been reknowned for years as a leader in skin care. Not only in adults but in Children too. When choosing your after sun, it is better to opt for a skin care specialist rather than a supermarket "own brand". Obviously the Skin care specialist is going to have many more years of caring for skin and much more knowledge.
The lotion is not sticky or thick like many alternatives on the market. The cheaper and less well known brands tend to be too thick and unable to be absorded by the skin. I like the consistency of E45 more to Baby Lotion and my skin absorbs it quickly and efficiently. No worries about your clothes sticking to your body when you go out. Give it 10 minutes and your skin should have absorbed enough to replenish the day's activities.
I find that E45 also helps with slight burning by the sun as is it soothes and eases the pain. In fact, it is one of the recommended products that www.skinpatient.com mention when treating sunburn due to its soothing properties. This is all thanks to the Aloe that is contained within the cream. This is nature's natural occuring answer to pain relief and skin damage.
Because it is a skin specific cream, it is gentle on your skin and causes no irritation at all. It simply soothes without causing an extra rashes or itches.
At £4.99 for 200ml it is an average priced product. It is more expensive than the various own brand products but more towards the lower end of the named brands. I highly recommend using it to anyone that wants to give their skin some extra protection after sun exposure.
