Dr. Barbara Sturm Aloe Vera Gel ($80)
If you want an after-sun lotion that's so cool it'll give goosebumps, we have just the thing. This Dr. Barbara Sturm Aloe Vera Gel is made of 90 percent pure aloe leaf juice, which offers intensive soothing, hydrating, and cooling benefits to the skin. It's also formulated with panthenol, or vitamin B5, which hydrates the skin from the inside out. To make this product even more effective, we suggest applying it right when you get out of the shower so you can lock in even more moisture. Oh, did we mention it smells great, too?
Customer Review: "My aunt brought this on a family trip and it was very soothing on our skin that was irritated by too much sun and heat. We applied this in the afternoon and stayed on nicely and reapplied before dinner cause the whole resort was outside. It does feel cooling and we left it in the fridge to stay cool. It also doesn't leave any tackiness!"
