Piz Buin After-sun

Our brand of the month for August, Piz Buin, specializes in sun protection.

But the brand isn't solely focused on sun protection! Piz Buin is also an expert in after-sun care, essential for maintaining skin health and, perhaps, extending that beloved golden tan 🤩

After-sun care can serve various purposes: hydrating, soothing, refreshing the skin, and prolonging the tan. Let's get to know each of them better:

✨ Hydrate: After sun exposure, the skin loses moisture, becoming dehydrated, dull-looking, and often uncomfortable, with a tight sensation. Piz Buin's after-sun products are enriched with various moisturizing and humectant ingredients, such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid, or aloe vera extract;

✨ Soothe: If you've been following us, you already know that sun exposure can cause damage and irritations to the skin, like mild sunburn, sun allergy, among others. That's why soothing and reparative after-sun care is essential in these cases! Piz Buin products are rich in calming ingredients like panthenol and aloe vera extract, as well as antioxidants that repair sun-induced skin damage, such as Vitamin E;

✨ Refresh: Did you neglect your protection and end up with a sunburn? Don't worry, it happens! Piz Buin products are packed with ingredients that can relieve redness, soothe the sensation of heat and burning, and reduce inflammation, such as aloe vera and mint extracts;

✨ Prolong the Tan: All the aforementioned ingredients, with their hydrating and repairing actions, help the skin maintain its moisture, consequently extending the tan. Piz Buin has after-sun care products focused on prolonging the skin's golden hue, with hydrating ingredients and a very special ingredient called Tanimel. Tanimel is an active ingredient derived from the Ononis plant, common in Europe. This active ingredient helps maintain the stability of skin melanin production, both during and after sun exposure. Skin melanin production increases by up to 133%, resulting in a deeper and longer-lasting tan.

Continuing on the topic of tanning, and since there's still plenty of summer to enjoy, here are some tips for achieving a beautiful and, above all, healthy tan:

👉 Avoid the hottest hours for sun exposure: typically between 10 AM and 4 PM, the UV index is highest and carries greater risks to skin and health. Opt for early morning or late afternoon sun exposure, and don't forget your...

👉 Sunscreen! Sun protection is crucial at all times of the day and should never be forgotten. Choose broad-spectrum sunscreens suitable for your skin type;

👉 Hydration, hydration, hydration. Moisturize your skin with creams, lotions, or serums of your choice, and keep your body hydrated by drinking plenty of water;

👉 Healthy diet: A diverse and healthy diet, rich in antioxidants like tomatoes and oranges, helps in recovering skin from sun damage. Speaking of antioxidants, foods high in beta-carotenes such as carrots, beets, and pumpkins enhance skin tanning.

Whatever your after-sun goal may be, Piz Buin has the answer to all your needs.
