5 Skincare Tips to Try After a Long Day Outside in the Sun
July 20, 2022TIP #2: Moisturize Your Skin
Excess sun exposure can be incredibly drying for the skin. After cleansing, add moisture back into your skin with a hydrating facial cream, like the CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion with Sunscreen. Pro tip: Apply your moisturizer while your skin is still slightly damp to help seal in the moisture. If you’re heading to bed, you may want to opt for a moisturizer without sunscreen, like the Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Omega Rich Botanical Night Cream.TIP #3: Reach for Aloe
Dealing with sunburn? Help soothe it with aloe vera. The gel not only helps hydrate the skin but also offers a cooling shield and sensation for temporary relief. Plus, it’s incredibly refreshing. Try the Versed Dew Point Moisturizing Gel-Cream formulated with aloe juice extract.TIP #4: Use a Hydrating Sheet Mask
If you’re looking for extra hydration, reach for the Garnier SkinActive Moisture Bomb Hydrating Sheet Mask. The formula offers a cooling sensation to the skin and provides an extra boost of moisture. To use, press the mask onto clean skin, sit back and relax. After 15 minutes, remove the mask and massage any remaining serum into the skin.
TIP #5: Give Back to Your Lips
Start off your post-sun lip care routine with a lip scrub that can help buff away dead cells from skin’s surface. Follow up with a hydrating lip conditioner like the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm to protect and soothe a dry, uncomfortable pout.
