Best post-sun skincare routine: 3 powerful products to repair and restore your skin
After some time in the sun, your skin needs more than a cool-down. It needs hydration, barrier repair and gentle renewal. Sun exposure can leave skin feeling tight, dry and looking dull - especially if your barrier takes a hit.
The good news? With the right post-sun skincare routine, you can recover your glow fast and keep skin strong, smooth and resilient. These three powerhouse products are exactly what your skin needs after sun exposure.
Step 1: Repair and Strengthen with Ceramide Fix Base Build Moisture Milk 8%
If your skin feels sensitive, dry or inflamed after sun exposure, it’s time to rebuild your barrier. This moisture milk is a lightweight, leave-on formula powered by 8% active ingredients - featuring ceramides, ectoin and niacinamide.
It helps restore your skin’s natural defences, boosts moisture retention and soothes visible redness. Think of it as a toner-essence hybrid that gets your skin back to baseline.
Why it’s perfect post-sun:
- Ceramides help repair and reinforce the skin barrier
- Ectoin protects against environmental stressors
- Niacinamide supports a more even tone
- Biolin prebiotic supports your skin’s microbiome
Use morning and night after cleansing for barrier support you can feel.
Step 2: Rehydrate Deeply with Hyaluronic Fix Concentrate
Sun exposure depletes your skin’s water levels fast, making it look dull and feel tight. This hydrating concentrate delivers intense moisture with a four-part hydration complex: multi-weight hyaluronic acid, polyglutamic acid, tremella extract and hydrating peptides.
Your skin drinks it up instantly and stays hydrated for hours - leaving it smooth, plump and perfectly prepped for whatever comes next.
Why it works:
- Multi-weight hyaluronic acid targets multiple layers of the skin
- Polyglutamic acid boosts moisture retention
- Tremella extract is a natural hydrator with antioxidant benefits
- Fragrance-free, alcohol-free and suitable for sensitive skin
Apply on damp skin after Moisture Milk to lock in hydration all day.
Step 3: Resurface Overnight with Glycolic Fix Skin Reviver Extreme 8%
Once your skin has had time to recover (at least 48 hours post-sun), it’s time to gently exfoliate. This overnight facial in a bottle helps buff away dead skin cells and dullness to reveal smoother, brighter, more even-toned skin by morning.
With 8% glycolic acid, lactic acid and soothing actives like aloe, squalane and prickly pear, it refines texture without compromising hydration. It's the perfect reset button for skin that's lost its glow.
Why it’s essential:
- 8% glycolic acid exfoliates to reduce roughness and boost clarity
- Lactic acid helps improves tone and texture
- Aloe vera and arnica calm and hydrate
- Squalane supports a healthy moisture barrier
Use 2 to 3 times per week at night. Always apply SPF the next morning.
