Enjoying the summer sun a little too much lately??
We at HDHQ in Dorr, Michigan, has been enjoying warm, summer-like weather this week! With winter and a cold spring barely behind us, it can be easy to experience sunburn, especially if you are out of the routine of applying sunscreen.
But don’t worry: we have several options at HD Soap for sunburn relief!
-
Try a cooling soap (like Cucumber Mint From Scratch) or a calming soap (like Relax From Scratch); both are soothing to hot, painful skin.
-
Our Kaolin Clay Paste contains aloe to alleviate the pain from mild burns, in addition to three types of clay to help draw out the pain and redness as well.
-
If your skin is peeling, try exfoliating gently with one of our From Scratch Sugar Scrubs which can help regenerate new skin cells below the surface. These are also very moisturizing, which is also important for sunburned skin!
-
Did you know that epsom salt can help relieve sunburn? Plus our Bath Bomb, Mini Bath Bombs, and Fizzy Salts are also moisturizing! This is especially effective when your sunburn is painful to the touch. Grab one with lavender essential oil in it for extra relief!
-
Another great product to grab when you need sunburn relief is our Lavender Hand Sanitizer. It contains both aloe and glycerin (which are cooling, calming, and soothing), plus of course the extra benefit of lavender essential oil.
-
Our Lotion Bars (even the Sunscreen Lotion Bar!) are excellent to apply if you have gotten burned. Again, those with lavender are extra helpful; one of our favorites is the Clear Your Mind formula.
-
Balms are a MUST for sunburn. It is incredibly important to keep your skin hydrated. Some of our favorites for skin repair are Lanolin, Lanolin and Lavender, the Calendula Balm Stick, and Lavender (also available in a stick!).
-
Our Sage Toner can instantly cool you down (and it may help minimize redness!), and our Relax Toner is also calming and soothing. Either one of these will feel great to spray on your sunburn. Bonus: keeping them in the refrigerator gives them even more cooling power!
Hopefully you have at least one of these products around your home if you are sunburned, but if not, check out our website and stock up so you have some of these amazing products on hand!
