Sunburn Relief and Repair Reviews

I’m grateful that BH had a listing for this after-sun gel so I knew about it, but devastingly sad to find out it has been discontinued. After hunting shelves of chemists randomly for a few months to find some, I decided to contact Hamilton to see if they could help me find somewhere local that stocked it. That’s when I got the devastating news. So when I found it I literally bought 6 tubes and am so glad I did, in fact I might get more.

This is the BEST SUNBURN/AFTER-SUN TREATMENT since the ol’ blue Solarcaine gel (which I haven’t seen in Australia for a very long time). It may even be better, I wish I could compare the two.

Hamilton Sunburn Relief & Repair is instantly cold and refreshing when applied, has low viscosity so it doesn’t drag on your stinging skin, doesn’t leave a sticky residue (again preventing further trauma to sore skin) and it continues to cool the skin long after it has dried. It also has no scent, which as the owner of a scentsitive nose is always a bonus.

I’d like to say I won’t have a need for this gel, but sadly I do. I’m yet to find a good body sunscreen that is gentle on ridiculously sensitive skin, spreads easily, actually prevents sunburn and doesn’t wash off with sweat/water, so getting burnt is inevitable for me at some stage each summer (and other times of the year). Even Hamilton’s trusty sunscreens, which used to be my saviour, now give me a rash :(

So I’m very glad that I now have an after-sun solution that doesn’t exacerbate the pain.

This gel kicks every aloe vera and other complex after-sun potion, lotion and gel right back where they belong—that is the “I don’t care how good your marketing is, if it doesn’t deliver I don’t buy it”.

I hope it is being discontinued because Hamilton have developed something even better, because I’ve only just found it and my stocks won’t last forever.
