TANNING AND SUN CARE CATEGORY – Sunbathing can be a supreme pleasure and a perfect opportunity to relax, but without proper care and protection, sun rays can seriously damage your skin and overall health. We all love that wonderful feeling of warmth on the skin and that summer, tanned complexion that gives us confidence, but the line between healthy sunbathing and permanent barrier damage is very thin. Here you will find carefully selected products that allow you to expose yourself to the sun carefree, while preserving your skin, deeply hydrating it, and preventing premature aging and drying out.
Our offer covers absolutely every step of your time in the sun – from reliable protection before going outside, to products that accelerate and enhance a bronze tan, all the way to soothing care that cools and regenerates the skin after sunbathing. We haven't forgotten the often neglected parts of the body, like lips and hair, which suffer equally under the influence of UV rays, salt, and wind. Each of the products in this category is clinically tested and formulated to provide you with a luxurious feel, top safety, and a dream tan.
What can you find in this category?
- Sunscreens with SPF protection: Protection starts with the right cream. From creams with SPF 30 for shorter stays in the sun, to SPF 50 and SPF 100 which are ideal for very sensitive skin. They protect against UVB rays (burns) and UVA rays (aging).
- Tanning oils and accelerators: If you want to achieve an intense bronze tan quickly, here you will find oils and accelerators with natural ingredients (coconut oil, argan, shea butter). The bronze color comes faster, and the skin remains soft and hydrated.
- After-sun lotions and milks: After a whole day in the sun, lotions with aloe vera and panthenol soothe, hydrate, and regenerate the skin. They prevent peeling, irritation, and the feeling of tightness.
- Lip balms with UV protection: Lips are especially sensitive and crack quickly. Our balms with UV protection not only shield against harmful rays but also hydrate and defend lips from wind and salt.
- UV protection hair sprays: UV rays can make hair dry and lifeless. These sprays protect hair from the sun, salt, and chlorine, keeping it shiny and healthy even after the beach.
Why are these products the right choice for you?
Each of the products is carefully selected to provide you with the best possible protection and care. They do not contain harsh chemicals, but rather nutrients that help restore and hydrate. Whether you are looking for a high-SPF cream, an oil for fast tanning, or a soothing lotion, here you will find a product that perfectly suits your needs.
Pharmacist's advice
Many people make a huge mistake by applying only "tanning oils" (which often have no or very low SPF) during the hottest part of the day. If you use tanning accelerators without SPF (like tanning jams and marmalades), be sure to apply a lotion with a sun protection factor (SPF 30 or 50) 15 minutes before them. Apply the oil only when the skin absorbs the protection, and avoid direct sun between 11 AM and 4 PM.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Do hair sprays with UV filters really work and do they make the hair greasy?
Yes, UV rays break down keratin in the hair, making it brittle and causing color fading. Protective sprays create an invisible film around the hair shaft. Modern formulas are extremely light (often water-based or dry oils) and are designed not to weigh down or make the hair greasy.
2. How long does a tan last and how to maintain it?
A tan is actually the skin's defense mechanism and gradually fades as cells renew (usually 2 to 4 weeks). To prolong it as much as possible, daily, deep hydration is key. That is why after-sun lotions are ideal because they cool the skin, prevent peeling, and preserve the bronze color significantly longer.
