Memorial Day is our first glimpse into summer and it’s easy to forget to wear sunscreen! After sun skin care is important, especially now that we are moving closer to summer.
So what do you do with sunburned or irritated skin? Soothe it with SeabuckWonders! Our Body Lotion and Facial Cream are the perfect lotions for after sun care- even if you didn’t get a burn.
That’s because sea buckthorn oil is full of omegas that can rehydrate the top layers of skin. Also, it's got antioxidants that help fight free radicals set loose by sun damage. Our lotions do not leave a greasy residue behind but they do provide moisture. For severe sunburns try our Sea Buckthorn Berry Oil Dropper Bottle. For centuries, people used sea buckthorn berry oil on wounds and burns. The berry oil has up to 35% omega-7 which provides amazing cellular support. It contains vitamin E, an amazing antioxidant. Sea buckthorn oils even have anti-inflammatory properties. That comes in handy when you are suffering from a sunburn. You may apply sea buckthorn berry oil to burned skin. Just be sure to clean the area with soapy water first to remove any trapped bacteria. The oil comes from the bright orange berries of the sea buckthorn. The bright orange color remains vibrant even after extracting the oil. So, keep that in mind when doing an after sun burn treatment. You should take every precaution to prevent sunburn from happening in the first place!
Did you know that May is National Skin Cancer Prevention Month?
Sun damage causes long term effects. Skin cancer will usually not appear until after years of sunburns. Not to mention wrinkles and sunspots! So cover up and stay hydrated. Don’t forget- sea buckthorn oil or products are not a substitute for sunscreen! Sea buckthorn is amazing for your skin and even has some anti-radiation properties. It just doesn’t work the same way as sunscreen. The skin cells will have a better chance of staying hydrated and healthy if you remember to do two things. Drink plenty of water every day and have a great source of balanced fatty acids in your diet.
