Your skin takes a hit every time you spend time in the sun. Bioderma Photoderm After-Sun Gel-Cream gives your skin the recovery it needs after UV exposure. This lightweight, fast-absorbing formula cools your skin on contact, replenishes lost moisture, and helps restore your skin's natural balance.

Key Benefits

  • Instant cooling comfort: Calms and soothes your skin immediately after sun exposure.
  • Deep hydration: Glycerin and Mannitol replenish moisture lost during UV exposure.
  • Barrier support: Helps restore your skin's natural protective function after sun stress.
  • Lightweight texture: Gel-cream absorbs quickly with no greasy residue on face or body.
  • Sensitive skin friendly: Dermatologist-tested formula suitable for the whole family.
  • Tanning enhancement: Helps maintain and prolong your natural tan while skin recovers.

Key Ingredients

Glycerin: A classic skin-friendly humectant that draws moisture into your skin and keeps it there. Mannitol and Xylitol: Natural sugars that help protect skin cells from oxidative stress caused by UV exposure. Rhamnose: A plant-derived sugar that supports your skin's natural repair process after sun. Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate: A licorice-derived active known for its ability to calm redness and reduce post-sun irritation. Laminaria Ochroleuca Extract: A marine algae extract that helps shield skin cells and supports recovery at the surface level.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Bioderma Photoderm After-Sun safe for sensitive skin?
