Details & care

What it is: A modern take on the after-sun gels you grew up with.

What it does: The gel is alcohol and dye-free, features an ARQUISTE designed fragrance, and has a nonsticky, watery feel that quenches, cools and soothes sunburned skin. The formula rehydrates and rejuvenates sun-exposed and burned skin while cooling and soothing. It can help prevent peeling and prolong a summer glow. The formula will keep skin feeling soft, luxurious, and smooth. It is non-sticky, watery feel that's fast absorbing. It also features a custom quenching and vivid fragrance from the award-winning ARQUISTE parfumeur.

Key ingredients:
- Niacinamide: a powerful moisture-regulating agent to lessen transdermal water loss
- Glycerin and prickly pear: a rejuvenating boost of hydration
- Allatoin, hyaluronic acid and tremella mushroom: a revitalizing blend of premium skin-restoring ingredients

How to use: Apply lavishly on the skin after sun exposure or whenever needed. Refrigerate for added relief and cooling effect. For external use only. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.

Great relief when you’ve had too much sun

So cool and refreshing after a day of sun when you forgot to apply sunscreen or missed a few places. Our favorite after sun relief!

After sun

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a cosmetologist with over 17 years experience, working in various areas of the beauty industry. I have focused mainly on skin care since 2014. I love skin care, and I especially love sun care! I love trying new sunscreens and sun protection products. Unfortunately I found both the After Sun Gel, and the Baby Oil SPF from Vacation Inc to be irritating to my skin. I’m not sure if it’s the fragrance, but that is what I’m thinking maybe caused the irritation. My skin felt itchy and a bit inflamed after using these products. I’m disappointed because the After Sun Gel has so many wonderful, soothing ingredients, but it does have a strong fragrance. The Baby Oil SPF also has a strong fragrance.I was so excited to try these products, but I will pass them along to a friend who will hopefully be able to enjoy them! I would love to see Vacation Inc. make fragrance free products. **This review was created through an educational promotional event hosted between the brand and beauty experts.**

Beach vacay in a bottle

It smells so nice and feels so nice. The smell reminds me of going to a nice sit down restaurant at the beach after you took a quick shower from swimming all day in the ocean. 10/10 would definitely recommend

Stayed in the sun a little too long?

Smelled so good, actually helped my skin absorb the burn and turn it into a tan. Doesnt pill up easily and no tacky sticky feeling like the supermarket blue gel. Also thank you for no lidocaine in this.

A fun retro after sun product

Very similar to the aloe Vera gel you get at the Asian supermarket in texture. A light gel after sun lotion with a unique scent
