Amazon Essentials After Sun Gel with Aloe, Lidocaine and Menthol, 16 Fluid Ounce (1 Pack) (Previously Amazon Basics)

LOVE THIS STUFF! It’s a little sticky at first but dries quickly and then an ice cold cooling sensation starts as well as the numbing. Works quickly and helps tremendously with sunburn! I even use it after I use Nair or Veet and it prevents irritation. It does have a strong menthol scent at first but the smell fades after a few minutes.

Excellent value for money—this is inexpensive but works very well. The effectiveness is excellent for soothing skin after sun exposure. The aloe, lidocaine, and menthol ingredients provide a cooling and calming feel, while the texture spreads easily without feeling overly sticky. The 16 oz size is generous, and the overall quality is very good for the price. Cheap, effective, and one of the best options I have used. non greasy, good fragrance.

Soothing, cooling, and moisturizing on your fried skin!

I recently bought this for an upcoming family vacation. The gel provides a cool, refreshing sensation upon application and definitely helps relieve the discomfort from sunburn. The aloe and menthol combination is especially soothing, and I appreciate that it’s not greasy or sticky. The pure Aloe, Lidocaine, and Menthol, and it works wonders for soothing sunburned skin. However, I deducted one star because the product was open when I received it, which was a bit concerning. Thankfully, it seemed to still be safe to use, but better packaging could definitely improve the experience. Overall, I’m happy with the product’s effectiveness, and I’d recommend it for anyone needing quick sunburn relief! If you have teens who swear they don’t need sunscreen this is for you lol 😂 We have a big family so the size made it easy to throw into any bag.

I’ve had shingles/induced PHN on my left torso for 5 years now and although I initially bought this to help with some sunburn, I saw a review that mentioned PHN as well. (PHN = postherpetic neuralgia) It really does take the edge off my PHN for hours using just a little bit. What a great surprise 😎 Great for sunburn and PHN in my opinion.

Made my skin feel so much better after spending way too much in the sun, and the fast delivery was a life saver

Every year my nose burns so BAD I look of the red nosed reindeer. This product is for after getting too much sun and dealing with sunburn. Even really bad sun burns feel better with this--I mean the kind that make you dread moving and you can feel the heat coming off it. Easy to use just squeeze on hand and pat on. Good size for the price it isn't greasy but does have the feeling of a cooling pain relieving aloe. 100% recommend. Quick absorption so doesn't feel slimy for long.

Feels so cool on a sunburn.
