You may not immediately see the effects of overexposure to the sun. According to scientific studies, the skin actually keeps burning, long after your sun exposure has ceased, and in case you forget to cover up and apply sunscreen, the resulting sunburn can be painful as well as dangerous. It may actually take up to 24 hours before the full damage is visible. First-degree sunburns cause redness and will heal, possibly with some peeling, within a few days. These can be painful and are best treated with cool baths and moisturizers. Ingredients such as cucumber, yoghurt, aloe vera, are all known for their soothing & healing properties making them ideal to treat sunburn. Here’s a few of our tried & tested after-sun treatments that won’t reverse the damage, but will help with the heal.
