Unless you’ve been living on the moon, you’ll know just how essential it is to protect the skin from the sun’s damaging rays on a daily basis, although it when you jet off on a foreign holiday to hotter climes, protecting your skin is even more important.

Before stepping out of their hotel and heading off to the beach or to see the sights, most holidaymakers apply their choice of sunscreen then think nothing of it for the rest of the day.

However careful you may be about applying sunscreen before stepping outdoors though, there are occasions when this one layer of sunscreen might not be adequate- and this could lead to sunburn.
Sometimes, sunburn isn’t immediately noticeable, though, and it’s only when you step inside that you really start to see and feel it.

Applying Dermalogica After Sun Repair can help to soothe skin and help to repair the damage caused by the sun’s rays though, so you don’t have to sit in your hotel room painfully suffering.

Dermalogica After Sun Repair brings irritation and redness down too- which can make the condition a lot less noticeable.

So, wherever you may be jetting off to, don’t jet off without this little gem.

Many of us have experienced an unfortunate case of sunburn in our lives, and for most it has been a turning point when it comes to protecting skin from the sun’s harsh rays.

Directly exposing skin to UV rays can quickly result in sunburn- and as well as not being the most desirable look around, it can have many serious lasting effects.

In addition to being key contributor to skin cancer, exposure to the sun’s rays can also result in premature skin ageing and the appearance of pigmentation in the future- and it’s safe to say that no tan is worth risking any of this for.

Some of the most common reasons for sunburn include an SPF which is too low, forgetting to reapply sunscreen after water exposure and simply forgetting to apply a sunscreen altogether.

Whether you are at home or abroad, applying an effective after sun can really help to soothe skin. Dermalogica After Sun Repair is a fantastic product which can help sun exposed skin in a number of ways.

In addition to soothing skin, Dermalogica After Sun Repair also helps to repair damage, rehydrate, and also speed up skin’s recovery.

Even though we’re now slap-bang in the middle of summer, there are still some individuals who have yet to sort out their summer skin care regime, and for those who are guilty of this it’s important that it is addressed as soon as possible.

There are several reasons why some people are still solely using the same skin products which they use all year round- from lack of time to confusion- and as there are so many different sun protection products on the market nowadays, it certainly isn’t difficult to get confused.

Although it’s important to keep skin protected from the sun’s harmful rays whatever time of year it is, it’s even more important during the summer months, as skin is far more likely to burn.

Addressing your summer skin care situation doesn’t mean that you have to throw out all of your old products though- you should simply tailor your regime to suit different scenarios.

When you’re out and about in the summer sun- whether sunbathing or shopping- it’s vital to adequately protect exposed areas of the body. Failing to do so could result in long term skin damage (not to mention the potential health implications).

We all know the extreme importance of applying adequate sunscreen when we’re out and about in the sun, although it’s fair to say that most of us have suffered from an unfortunate bout of sunburn at some point or another.

There are several reasons why sunburn is given the opportunity to strike- including falling asleep in the sun, sun protection wearing off due to swimming and sports, and generally just being caught unaware.

More often than not, we’re not aware that we’re suffering with sunburn until a little while later- and when sunburn takes hold the pain can be absolutely unbearable. This is when it is imperative that you invest in a good after sun product- as not only can they help to soothe skin and therefore ease pain, they can also help to prevent redness and any dreaded skin peeling afterwards.

As usual, when it comes to fantastic after sun products, Dermalogica leads the way when it comes to effective and affordable products- and Dermalogica After Sun Repair has been something of a Godsend for many people who have been burnt by the sun’s harsh rays.

Dermalogica After Sun Repair works best when applied as soon as possible after sun exposure, and in addition to calming burnt skin, it also helps to rehydrate.
