Although I try every year not to get sunburnt I always do at some stage and this is the gel I use when that happens. I keep mine in the fridge so that when I put it on it is extra cooling and refreshing. It soaks into my skin quickly and gives instant relief. I have found that putting this on helps my sunburn to go away faster, as it really helps to take to heat out of it. This is a must have for me every year.

Tips: Keep it in the fridge
Despite my best efforts, I'll still get burnt. Love this product, it really does give instant relief. When kept in the fridge, it makes it even better at cooling, soothing and taking the sting out of a burn. I usually apply, let it sink in, and follow with another application 20 minutes or so later, to really kickstart the cooling and healing effects. This is a great product, doesn't seem to have a smell and is really pleasant to use.
Tips: Keep in the fridge
i went out for a walk on the beach with my dogs on a cloudy overcast day a few weeks ago but still managed to get a bit burnt and this gel is amazing at healing, hydrating and instantly soothing painful sunburn!
Tips: Lather it!
This works well but apart from being a reputable brand and the non greasy feeling aloe vera gel is just as good yes it is soothing and calms the hot sore skin but a little does not really go a long way so I think for the price and amount you get just aloe gel is a better alternative. A handy container easy squeeze and cool blue colour having it sit on the lid makes is handy for instant use and getting the last of the product yes I would use again but it is branded and so your paying for that. A good cause though.
I got this from the warehouse just this summer gone and still have most of it left. I didn't use it as religiously as i meant to, but nonetheless I'm pretty impressed with the product. I've applied this on my little girl as well as myself after a day at the beach or outdoors and it does give a nice cooling relief to the skin! its very moisturizing as well without being greasy or sticky! I highly recommend it.
My partner and I use this every summer! Your skin just slurps it up and feels hydrated again in seconds. Avalible at the supermarket and very affordable. Can't go wrong.

Tips: Store in fridge for extra cooling
Love the product, for the price and amount of quality I got I think it was totally well worth it. The gel has a nice cooling, rehydrating effect, which helped my skin feel refreshing. Love the product it is definitely well worth trying
I try to avoid getting burnt, but my skin is fair which means at least once a year I seem to get burnt without even trying.
Cancer Society's After Sun Gel is a great thing to have in the cupboard or in the fridge as a way to soothe and improve those burns. It instantly soothe the skin with its cooling gel, it also seems to reduce irritation and I swear then skin heals faster too. But that could just be me imagining things.
But it really is a great product for soothing and hydrating the skin.
Packaging-wise it comes in a tube that makes the product easy to get out and is easy to store. The packaging also looks soothing which adds to its appeal from a marketing point of view.
Tips: You don't have to be burnt to use it, it can also calm down other skin irritations or just cool down overheated skin.
As someone who is very prone to getting sunburnt, i'm always looking for products to relieve the pain. This product is the best i've found. It leaves skin feeling cool and refreshed and doesn't feel oily or heavy. Unlike other after sun products, the effects don't wear off quickly. Would definitley use again.
