While warm summer days invite us to spend more time outdoors, prolonged time in the sun can leave your skin and hair feeling the effects of dehydration and UV stress. Gentle and effective skin care after sun exposure is the key to restoring comfort and balance.
Your post-sun routine should focus on calming, hydrating and replenishing what the elements have taken away. As pioneers in certified organic beauty, we have spent decades perfecting gentle formulas that work to support and nourish - perfect for helping your skin and hair recover after a day in the elements.

Start with a gentle cleanse
After a day outdoors, your skin needs to be cleansed of sunscreen, sweat and environmental pollutants - but it also needs to be treated with care. Sun exposure can make your skin more sensitive, so a harsh, stripping face wash is the last thing you need.
Instead, choose a cleanser that purifies without upsetting your skin's delicate balance. Our Scent Free Cleanser has a soft, creamy consistency that feels instantly calming. This COSMOS Organic certified cleanser is clinically proven to be kind to sensitive skin and effortlessly melts away make-up and SPF, leaving your face feeling soft and comfortable - never tight.

Your skin can lose a significant amount of moisture when exposed to the sun, leading to a feeling of tightness and the appearance of fine, dehydrated lines. The best way to counteract this is by layering hydration back into your post-sun skin care routine.
Start with a dedicated serum. A few drops of our Scent Free Hyaluronic Booster Serum pressed into clean, slightly damp skin will deliver an intense moisture boost. This fragrance-free formula uses Hyaluronic Acid to plump and hydrate without irritation.

It isn’t just your face that needs attention. An effective after sun lotion will cool and calm the skin on your body, reduce redness and help to prolong the life of your tan by preventing peeling.

Rich in Aloe Vera, it provides deep hydration to soothe sun-warmed skin, and contains Inositol, which is clinically proven to reduce tan fade by 50%.

Revive sun-stressed hair
Just like your skin, your hair can be damaged by UV rays, sea salt and chlorine. This can weaken its protein structure, leaving it looking and feeling dry, brittle and frizzy. A strengthening shampoo and conditioner are vital to restore its health and shine.
Our Protein-Boost hair care range is specifically designed to fortify and repair. The Protein-Boost Shampoo & Shower Wash cleanses gently while delivering strengthening Quinoa Protein to the hair shaft.
