What is a moisturiser?
A moisturiser is a product designed to provide hydration to the skin. It contains ingredients such as humectants and emollients that help retain moisture in the skin, prevent dryness and keep the skin soft and supple. Moisturisers are suitable for daily use and can be used at any time, not just after sun exposure.
What is an After Sun?
An After Sun is a product specifically formulated to soothe, moisturise and repair the skin after sun exposure. It usually contains ingredients such as aloe vera, calendula and vitamins to help soothe redness, irritation and dryness caused by the sun. After sun provide immediate relief and are ideal for restoring skin after intense sun exposure.
The right choice
The choice between a moisturiser and an aftersun will depend on the condition of your skin and your specific needs. If your skin does not have significant redness or irritation after sun exposure, a light moisturiser may be sufficient to keep it hydrated and healthy. .
