Hello Sunshine: how to protect yourself completely from the sun

Translation: machine translated
Putting on sun cream should be a daily routine as natural as brushing your teeth. Wherever you spend the summer - on the beach or in town - all kinds of surfaces, sand, water or concrete, reflect the sun's rays. Don't underestimate the importance of good sun protection and prevent premature skin ageing. Here are some of our favourite products for body, face and hair, so that you're perfectly equipped.
To do before and after sunbathing
The face
Skincare
Make-up
Even make-up fights against harmful rays. A good day cream and suitable products will help protect you from UVA and UVB.
Lips
These little lip balms are compact and practical. They offer optimum protection against UVA and UVB rays in all weathers and have a satin effect. There are also natural variants, like those from Laboratoires de Biarritz, developed in collaboration with surfers and designed for extreme weather conditions. If you fancy a touch of colour, use lipsticks with sun protection. Simply apply them over the balm. They beautify while protecting your lips.
The body
Protect your body from sunburn by applying sun cream. Depending on your preference, opt for the tube, stick or spray version. It protects the most sensitive areas such as the décolleté and hands, is generally water and sweat resistant and sometimes even has an anti-ageing effect.
Hair
Your hair deserves protection from the rays too. Use a protective spray before exposure; it also works as a styling product. Your hair will shine and feel softer. Also wear a hat to cover your head and avoid sunburn.
After sunbathing
After-sun care is the key to a long-lasting tan. The more attention you pay to your skin, the happier you'll be with your tan. Your hair will also need extra care after a dip in the pool or ocean. If you've had a bit too much sun, we recommend using natural remedies such as aloe vera gel or plain yoghurt and tomato slices. Spread this copiously over the redness and leave the skin to cool.

After Sun
No sun protection is 100% effective. Even if you spend the day in the shade, under a parasol or umbrella, the bare areas of your body still receive up to half the UV rays. So it's a good idea to buy basic accessories such as swim shirts and a hat. And if you want a golden complexion without exposing anything to the rays, there are some excellent self-tanners to apply evenly to the face and body.
