Why I love YL’s LavaDerm After Sun Spray

Low tox legends!!

I have been using YL’s Lavaderm After Sun Spray recently (on friction burns on my back from rolling on a hard ball on concrete to release fascia…. a bit too zealously!)… and I am stunned by how well it works. It’s like lavender on steroids in spray form.

It’s lightweight, absorbs properly, with no stickiness or grease. The spray format makes it easy to apply everywhere, including your back, and it soaks in fast. It also works just as well in winter for dry, tight, or reactive skin, so it’s not just a summer thing.

If you have had too much sun exposure, it pulls the heat out of the skin straight after sun exposure and actually hydrates rather than just feeling soothing in the moment. The skin doesn’t go dry or tight later, and there’s a noticeable difference the next day: smoother, more even, less reactive.

What it is:
A menthol and aloe after-sun spray that cools, soothes, and rehydrates. It’s designed for sun exposure but works just as well for:

• Irritated skin

• Bites

• Burns, including 3rd degree burns, before seeking medical attention

• Skin ulcers

• Boils

• Cuts, Scraps, Wounds

• Nappy rash

• Itchy dry skin

• Allergies

• Hot and flushed skin post-exercise

The spray format means no rubbing into already warm or sensitive skin, which is great for large areas and for kids.

Menthol gives immediate relief, and aloe and glycerin rehydrate after sweating. Lavender, helichrysum, and spruce make it calming to the skin.

What makes it different:
Combines instant cooling, hydration, and barrier repair in a single step. It includes lipid support, which most after-sun products skip entirely, and it’s alcohol-free, so it doesn’t dry out the skin after that initial cooling hit. Absorbs easily with no residue.

What others say:
“Cooling without stickiness.” “Feels instantly soothing.” “Easy to use, no mess.” “Summer essential, beach bag staple.” “Better tolerated than thick creams, especially for kids.”
