If you’re one of the lucky ones going out to the beach this long weekend, make sure you tan right. Nobody likes to waste a good tan to peeling, so make sure you take along a good after-sun cream to keep your skin hydrated and moisturized after baking in the sun all morning.

We recommend Bioderma’s Photoderm Apres-Soleil, it is tried and tested and has done miracles to keep a girl from looking like a potato-skinned fried lobster. Apply it regularly after sun-exposure.

Our reader Carine Sabbagh suggested an organic alternative that has no chemicals added and is far cheaper. Our reader Carine Sabbagh recommended this product when she read our post on Bioderma’s after-sun lotion and we absolutely love it. She recommends Nefertari’s After Sun Lotion, made of chamomile and calendula flower, both known for their healing and soothing qualities. It also has beeswax and gum Arabia, all natural and organic ingredients that ensure hydration and soothing without worrying about added chemicals.Available on Nefeterari’s website for LE 60.
