It is well known that sunbathing makes you feel better. But make sure your skin does not suffer! A few precautions will keep your skin beautiful and healthy.

A sticky cream is not really pleasant, especially if you are about to do sports. Garnier offers its Ambre solaire, sweatproof and resistant to water, it also protects from the sun.

Taking care of your skin does not stop at protecting it, you should also think about after-sun products. The pharmaceutical French brand Bioderma released their Photoderm cream to moisturise your body so it does not become dry once you are back home. Ideal to recover from sun damage.

If you do not have the time to get out and enjoy the weather, you can try selftan. Sprays, creams, oils, you can always find the best one for your needs. For people who simply do not have the time, St. Tropez revolutionised selftan with a lotion you apply under the shower. The instructions are clear: wash yourself, evenly spread the lotion on your body, wait 3 minutes then rinse. You can adapt the tan by using it more or less frequently.
