Why we like it
The Moda Team Review
If your hair is doing this — your hair feels dry, rough or sun-exposed, and your usual routine is not giving it enough comfort — SU Aftersun Cream is the Davines step I would talk through with you. It gives a softer, replenished feel after sun exposure while keeping the finish hydrated, fresh and summer-ready.
Read full stylist notes
The client who arrives at their September appointment with dull skin and mentions their skin always looks tired by the end of summer. They care for their hair religiously but think of their post-beach skin care as an afterthought. The SU Aftersun Cream takes two minutes and addresses the same free radical damage their hair products are addressing — it’s the natural extension of the same conversation. Davines’ SU family covers both hair and body in summer because the exposure affects both. Carrying the Aftersun Cream means clients can build a complete post-sun routine from a single brand they already trust for their hair. The Bitter Orange Extract is Regenerative Organic Certified™, sourced from a named farm in Sicily — consistent with the supply chain standards across the full SU line.

Questions? We get them.
Good to know.
The questions we hear most about this product. If yours isn’t here, a real stylist will answer.
Ask ModaCan I use the Davines SU Aftersun Cream on my face as well as my body, or is it too heavy for facial skin?
Yes, Davines formulates and positions it explicitly for both face and body. The formula is fast-absorbing and non-greasy, so it does not feel heavy on facial skin. If your face tends to be particularly oily or reactive, start with a small amount to assess your skin’s response.
I usually just use my regular body lotion after a beach day. What does the Davines SU Aftersun Cream do differently?
Yes, the difference is the Bitter Orange Extract’s antioxidant action, which neutralises UV-caused free radicals that a regular moisturiser does not address. Post-UV skin is also more permeable and receptive than normal skin, so the actives in an after-sun formula penetrate more effectively. A regular lotion moisturises; this one also neutralises the free radical load.
Does the Davines SU Aftersun Cream help with the tightness and mild redness from sun exposure, or is it purely moisturising?
Yes, it addresses both. The Bitter Orange Extract has anti-inflammatory properties that calm redness and the tight, sensitised feeling that follows sun exposure. It is not a treatment for sunburn, but for normal post-sun skin stress and tightness it provides meaningful comfort in addition to hydration.
I have sensitive skin that reacts easily. Is the Davines SU Aftersun Cream safe to use, or should I check with my dermatologist first?
Yes, the formula is designed for post-sun use and is generally well-tolerated. For specific skin conditions or diagnosed sensitivities, it is always worth checking with your dermatologist before introducing a new product. The formula is free from parabens and aligns with Davines’ clean formulation standards.
I usually forget to moisturise until my skin is completely dry after a shower. Does it still work if applied to dry skin?
Yes, it works on dry skin. The best absorption happens on slightly damp skin when the barrier is more permeable, but dry skin application is still effective — the cream absorbs quickly and does not sit on the surface. You will notice a difference either way; damp skin just maximises the result.
