How much sunscreen should you use on your face?

Use a generous amount so your entire face is covered. For ECOOKING's Daily Sun Shield, that's about a teaspoon every morning. A layer that's too thin provides less protection than the factor stated on the bottle.

How often should you apply sunscreen in the sun?

Reapply after swimming, sweating and towel-drying, and during a long day in the sun. ECOOKING’s Sunscreen Face has been tested so that you can swim for 2 x 20 minutes before you need to reapply, if your skin air-dries.

Does self-tanner protect against the sun?

No. The colour from a self-tanner sits in the top layer of the skin and does not protect against UV rays, so you still need to use sunscreen.

When should you use sunscreen on your face?

Every day all year round when you go outside. Even on grey days and in winter, some of the sun's rays get through and can cause pigmentation spots and early wrinkles.

Sun care

Q: Which cream can be used after sun exposure?

After a day in the sun, the skin benefits from a cooling and moisturising aftersun. ECOOKING’s fragrance-free aftersun soothes and cools the skin and is AllergyCertified. If your skin is sunburnt with blisters, seek advice from a pharmacist or doctor.

Sun care is everything your skin needs when it comes to the sun: sun protection for face, body and lips, aftersun care and self-tanner for a glow without the sun.

Sun care and protection all year round

The sun’s UVB rays can burn the skin, and UVA rays penetrate deeply, even on cloudy days and through windows. They cause the skin to age prematurely and develop pigmentation spots. That’s why protecting your face from the sun every morning is the most effective anti-age care you can give your skin. Sunscreen Face and Sunscreen Body are available with SPF 30 or 50, are fragrance-free and water-resistant, and absorb quickly without leaving a greasy or white residue. Daily Sun Shield with SPF 50 is ultra-light and very water-resistant, so it stays on when you swim, sweat or exercise. See the full range of sunscreen.

Day cream with sun protection

If you want moisturisation and sun protection in one step, Firming Cream SPF 50 with SPF 50 is a day cream for mature skin, while Pigmentation Cream SPF 30 with SPF 30 also helps even out skin tone. See also day cream with SPF.

Sun stick and lips

Sun Stick protects the small areas sunscreen can easily miss: the hair parting, tip of the nose, ears and backs of the hands. It is fragrance-free and water-resistant and easy to use on children. Lips have almost no protection of their own, so Sun Balm protects against UVA and UVB and cares for dry lips with a fresh hint of mint.

After-sun care

After a day at the beach or in the garden, skin needs cooling moisture. Fragrance-free aftersun soothes and cools the skin and moisturises it with nourishing oils and organic aloe vera. It is AllergyCertified and dermatologically tested. See more under aftersun.

Sunscreen before or after day cream?

Sunscreen is the last step in your morning skincare routine. Apply day cream first, let it absorb for a couple of minutes, then apply sunscreen on top. Wait another moment before applying makeup. If you use a day cream with SPF, it serves as both cream and sun protection, but remember that you need a thick enough layer. Daily Sun Shield is a good base for makeup.

Self-tanner: glow without the sun

Self Tanning Mousse gives the body an even, sun-kissed colour, and you mix Self Tanning Drops into your cream so you can decide how intense the colour becomes. Both are fragrance-free and provide colour with natural DHA from sugar beet or sugar cane. Remember that the colour from a self-tanner does not protect against the sun, so keep using sunscreen.
