Exfoliate
Start your sun care routine by exfoliating your body 1 to 3 times a week. Natural sea salt scrub particles from Zeeland and upcycled calcite granules in our Deep Salt Body Scrub remove dead skin cells, resulting in a more even tan.
The body scrub is enriched with hemp seed oil, which is rich in omega fatty acids. This formula moisturizes and strengthens the skin, leaving it soft and comfortable. The subtle Voyage Vétiver scent with sea salt, sage, and vetiver notes instantly puts you in a vacation mood.
Protect
Protect your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays with sunscreen. Use the Mineral Sun Protection Face in your morning skincare routine to instantly protect your face from the sun. With a mineral sunscreen, you are directly shielded from UV rays - no half-hour waiting time is required, unlike regular chemical sunscreens.
Also, always check the UV index of the day to determine whether you need to apply the Mineral Sun Protection Body in SPF 30 or SPF 50 to your body. If you're spending the whole day outside, reapply every two hours and try to avoid the sun when the UV index is at its highest, usually between 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM.
Our mineral sun protection is enriched with golden seaweed and sea algae. These ingredients are rich in vitamins and minerals to improve skin hydration and prevent premature skin aging. The 100% vegan formula is water-resistant, non-greasy, and leaves no white residue on the skin.
Hydrate
Taking care of your skin after sun exposure is just as important as protecting it beforehand. Restore, hydrate, and soothe the skin with the Dry Body Oil. The formula is enriched with golden seaweed, sweet almond oil, and upcycled prickly pear oil, which are rich in vitamin A and E. It's ideal for nourishing the skin after a day in the sun. The aftersun absorbs quickly into the skin, providing long-lasting hydration with a silky glow.
