Because we care about our skin and our health, we know that there's nothing more damaging to our skin than unprotected exposure to UV rays. But even armed with that knowledge, and many of us will find ourselves with a touch of redness or sunburn at some point during the summer no matter how responsible we are about using sun protection. Spontaneous invitations to outdoor events, losing track of time between sunscreen applications or even just underestimating how much sun protection we really need are all factors that can lead to unexpected sun burn. So what should you do if you suddenly come in from a day at the pool and realize that you've accidentally gotten too much sun and have an unflattering red glow? Here are some tips to help you recover when you've accidentally spent too much time in the sun!
When your skin is sunburned, the first step in soothing your skin and help it to heal is dealing with severe dehydration. When you've overexposed your skin to the sun's UV rays, those rays have literally cooked your skin. A great choice to topically hydrate and soothe the minor discomfort (or even severe pain) associated with your sunburn is Murad Redness Therapy®. While Redness Therapy was developed specifically for those with Rosacea and Rosacea-like skin symptoms, the gentle moisturizers work well to soothe dry, sun burnt skin as well. These gentle formulas won't irritate. Redness Therapy formulas combine mint to soothe and cool with aloe to hydrate skin and minimize discomfort. Rely on Murad Redness Therapy to get instant topical hydration and relief.

Eat Your Water! Stat!
After overexposure to the sun, your skin is significantly damaged and dry. In fact, your entire body will be dehydrated. To help both your skin and your body to recover, you need to rehydrate as quickly and effectively as possible. Maximize hydration by eating your water in the form of fresh fruits and vegetables, one of the helpful hints for living and looking younger in Dr. Murad's best-selling book, The Water Secret. The water trapped in the cellular structure of fruits and vegetables means a nice gradual release into your system so you'll stay hydrated more consistently for a longer period. Start hydrating immediately after sunburn to minimize the discomfort and long term impact of sun damage.
Load Up the Antioxidants
UV rays damage your skin in a number of ways. They break down collagen and weaken elastin, meaning leading to the appearance of lines and wrinkles. UV rays also damage the cells that product the skin pigment melanin, damage that leads to the formation of age spots and sun spots. However, there are skin care steps that you can take to help to minimize this skin damage. UV rays create free radicals in your body, which break down collagen, elastin and melanin. Because antioxidants can combat and destroy free radicals to minimize that damage, combine a topical regimen of antioxidant rich skin care products, such as Murad Environmental Shield®, with an antioxidant-rich diet—a healthy skin diet—to help prevent damage from accidental sun damage and to help minimize any free radical damage that your sun exposure has caused.

Minimize the Appearance of Redness or Pinkness
Finally, your accidental overexposure to the sun probably means that your face has a pink (or even red) tint to you'd like to tone down. But instead of reaching for a heavy, skin-smothering foundation to try to cover it up, reach for a moisturizer to that's designed to sooth and visually neutralize your redness. Because green tones cancel visual perception of red tones, Murad Correcting Moisturizer SPF 15 has a green-neutralizing tint that will calm the appearance of redness on your skin.
While we all do our best to avoid sunburn and sun damage, accidents do happen—when they do, and you experience over-exposure to UV rays this summer, use these tips to minimize and control the damage!
