Tips for skin care after sunbathing

Enjoying the sun is one of our favorite activities during the summer months and holidays. However, at the same time, the warm rays of the sun, sea water and wind leave behind traces such as dry, sensitive and irritated skin. Although products with SPF factor are an important step in protecting against the negative effects of the sun, at the end of the day your skin needs deep and quality hydration!

How to care for your skin after sunbathing , which products to choose and how to maintain a tan after sunbathing – find out below.

Skin care after sunbathing

After sun exposure, proper care plays a major role in preserving your skin and your bronzed complexion. Let the first step in your summer beauty routine be a lukewarm shower that will stimulate circulation and won’t dry out your skin further. After showering, it’s time to moisturize! Dry skin caused by heat, seawater, and wind is the biggest enemy of maintaining a perfect summer tan in the long term.

Body Hydro Calm lotion is the ideal choice when your skin needs deep hydration. This lightweight, soothing body product with its antioxidant protective formula strengthens the skin’s resistance while soothing and balancing it. The result is visibly smoother skin after just one use! We recommend using Body Hydro Calm all year round, not just during the summer months.

Due to the lack of moisture, the skin is more prone to aging and wrinkles in the summer and needs regeneration. After Solar Repair is a high-quality refreshing and emulsifying after-sun cream with a skin regeneration complex. The cream contains ectoine , an ingredient that activates natural recovery processes and protects against skin aging caused by sun exposure, and hyaluronic acid, which cools and relaxes the skin after sun exposure. After use, the skin is balanced, relaxed and regenerates faster.

Alleviating sunburn

Excessive sun exposure most often results in burns, uncomfortable and painful redness that needs to be treated with special anti-inflammatory products. After a burn occurs, the affected area should first be cooled with lukewarm or cold water, and then a product should be applied to relieve redness, burning and irritation.

Calming Silver Spray is an ideal SOS product for soothing irritated skin.

It contains micro silver and neurocosmetic anti-stress ingredients that quickly soothe irritated skin, relieve irritation, itching and inflammation. After showering, spray directly onto affected areas up to several times a day if necessary.

The most important measure to protect against sunburn is to avoid sun exposure between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. and to regularly and thoroughly apply a product with a sun protection factor . Excellent protection against the harmful effects of UVA/UVB and IR-A rays and HEV light is provided by ZO Skin ‘Broad-spectrum Sunscreen’ mineral sunscreen, ideal for dry and sensitive skin.

Provide facial skin with deep hydration

In addition to a quality protective cream, it is important to provide deep hydration to the facial skin, and one of the leading products here is Zo Skin ‘Recovery Creme’ – a rich moisturizer for a firmer skin structure. This cream deeply hydrates the skin and at the same time stimulates its natural hydration, restores the skin barrier and returns the skin to its smoothness, elasticity and softness.

From the same product line comes ‘Hydrating Creme’ , a cream that is suitable for very dry skin, and in addition to relieving inflammation and reducing skin redness, it improves natural hydration.

To restore deep hydration, we also recommend the HydraFacial treatment , which provides long-term health to the skin and is adaptable to the specific needs of all skin types, and we also recommend a chemical skin peel to remove dead cells formed after sun exposure.
