i would recommend products from kiehl's. they are AWESOME. i use their facial products. my skin's quite smooth and healthy thanks to the fact that their creams don't overdry or clog your pores with oil, and you get a nice glow as well.

i should warn you though, the products are on the pricey end...but it's worth it.

trust me, you'll love the creams/lotions.

I heard Aloe is great, and also reduces redness (sunburns, dryness, red acne spots that normally take six months to go away, and even can help scars, sometimes eliminating them completely if they're fresh).

I am going to get some tomorrow since I'm very sunburn prone and I know I'll have to be out more than usual in August.

I second Kiehls... or even Origins if you don't have access to kiehls. Origins is really easy because you can go, get some products, test them out for a few days and return them if they don't work out. I don't have a seller of Kiehls near me so I do mail order with them.

L'Occitane shea butter lotions are amazing. If you can shell out for them, they're my favorites.

My favorite is La Mer, but it's really, really expensive. However, it's unbelievably amazing.

cocoa butter is really good. it can be expensive,but there are cheap brands - go to your local pharmacy/drug store and you can get an amount that lasts you a month for around $3.

olay facial cremes are the best. they don't clog pores, have sunscreen, and seriously, if you use it every day for a month, your skin will look the best its ever been.
