Aftersun

Soothing and hydrating the skin after sun exposure is vital for effective repair. Ingredients such as aloe vera gel, glycerin, panthenol (Vitamin B5) and shea butter help reduce inflammation and restore lost moisture. Partner with us to develop exceptional and effective aftersun formulations.
