SUMMER AFFAIR AFTER SUN Tan Extender Lotion

This year, the AFTER SUN Tan Extender Lotion will make your summer adventure even better, extending it far into the autumn. With the power of carefully chosen natural after-sun skin care ingredients, it will ensure excellent effects that are truly welcome in the summer:

• calms skin irritation after sunbathing,
• pleasantly refreshes and deeply moisturises,
• promotes faster regeneration of sun-damaged skin,
• the added self-tanning activators provide a gentle tan and help extend it – even without sunbathing,
• regular after-sun care reduces unwanted skin peeling and itchiness,
• the skin is left smooth, wonderfully soft and conditioned.

• CONCENTRATED ALOE VERA GEL is naturally rich in substances such as vitamins A, C and E, amino acids, minerals and active substances. It supports the transport of active substances to the dermis, improving skin hydration and regeneration. Its healing formulation calms the skin after sunbathing and supplies it with an abundance of moisture.

• PANTHENOL: known in the cosmetics world as a “deep skin penetrator” as it delivers moisture to deeper skin layers, resulting in greater elasticity and softness. In addition to the moisturising function, panthenol also has a highly regenerative action, which makes it very important in after-sun skin care, because it moisturises and calms burned, itchy skin.

• INDIAN SENNA: Indian senna seed extract is well-known in Ayurvedic medicine. It’s a plant alternative to hyaluronic acid, as it stimulates the synthesis of hyaluronic acid and collagen in the skin, ensuring improved long-term hydration, appearance and structure.

• DHA SELF-TANNING ACTIVATOR (DIHYDROXYACETONE) or the ingredient that gives colour to the skin. DHA is obtained from glycerol through microbial fermentation and is the simplest ketonic form of sugar. It’s generated in the body in the process of metabolising carbohydrates, which is why it’s natural to the human body. DHA reacts with amino acids in the outermost layer of the epidermis (stratum corneum), which creates a reaction that produces pigments (melanoidins) which give our skin a darker colour.

• ERYTHRULOSE: another 100% natural self-tanning activator that works similarly to DHA, but provides a significantly more natural and even tan. Its action is slower, as erythrulose takes longer to react with the skin’s proteins (the colour develops within two days), but the self-tanning effect lasts longer. Your tan fades much slower and more evenly, keeping the natural tan look throughout.

If you’d like to keep your skin perfectly tanned for as long as possible, use the lotion consistently, every day, especially after exposure to the sun.

Apply the lotion to washed skin, using circular motions to evenly massage it in until completely absorbed. Remember: massage accelerates absorption into the deeper skin layers, so your efforts here will be rewarded. The more the lotion absorbs into the skin, the longer it will stay hydrated, nourished and beautifully conditioned.
