Suncare
Sunscreen serves as a vital protective barrier, effectively absorbing or deflecting ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. Specifically targeting UVA and UVB rays, known factors for skin damage leading to sunburn, premature ageing and potential skin cancer, sunscreen plays a crucial role in preserving the skin's health. As well as providing SPF coverage, the daily use of sunscreen protects the skin against environmental aggressors like pollutants. Daily application of suncreen helps to reduce the visibility of wrinkles and pigmentation, with products targeting the lip and eye area.

SPF, Sun Protection Factor, a numerical indicator of how effectively a sunscreen protects against UVB rays, the primary cause of sunburn. Higher SPF numbers offer greater protection:
- SPF 15: Blocking 93% of UVB rays, suitable for minimal sun exposure.
- SPF 30: Blocking 97% of UVB rays, the recommended daily defense for most skin types.
- SPF 50+: Blocking 98% or more of UVB rays, ideal for extended sun exposure or sensitive skin.
Aftersun is a must-have for any summer getaway, or winter escape to the sun. It can help to soothe and cool the skin after sun exposure, relieve the pain and discomfort of sunburn, and prevent further damage to the skin. Whether you're planning a day at the beach, a hike in the hills, or simply spending time in your garden, it's important to protect your skin from the sun's harmful UV rays. Aftersun can help you do just that.
