Sunscreen, repellent stick, hiking trip, evening out, camping, beach or canoeing: the right products matter, but how you use them matters just as much.
This page brings together ARDESUN practical guides to better apply products, avoid common mistakes, and adopt the right outdoor practices. The objective is simple: less ambiguity, less waste, more common sense.

We don't want to fill this section with fluff. Here, each guide must answer a real question: how to apply it, when to reapply, which areas to target, what to avoid, how to combine sunscreen and insect repellent, and how to adjust your routine based on the situation.
The section will gradually be enriched with short, practical, and verifiable articles, linked to ARDESUN products when useful.
01
The first ARDESUN guide explains how to use a mosquito repellent stick: amount to use, areas to target, the face, children, storage, and mistakes to avoid.
02
Sunscreen protection also depends on the amount applied, the regularity of reapplication, and proper practices after swimming, sweating, or towel-drying.
03
When using sunscreen and mosquito repellent, the order of application is important. This topic deserves a clear, no-nonsense guide.

04
This guide compares DEET-free alternatives (icaridin, IR3535, PMD/Citriodiol, citronella), details what will change in France in 2026, and uses the ARDESUN repellent stick as a concrete example throughout the guide.
Protecting yourself from mosquitoes without DEET: the complete guide
A protective product does not replace common sense. Sunscreen does not allow you to stay exposed indefinitely. A mosquito repellent does not create an invisible bubble around you. And a stick format is not used exactly like a spray or a cream.
This is why this section exists: to explain the proper uses, limitations, precautions, and real-world applications in simple terms. When a product has an advantage, we say so. When it has a limitation, we say so too.
This page also serves as a link between practical advice and ARDESUN products. The idea is not to push a product on every line, but to allow the reader to easily find the right sheet when a topic interests them.
Solid, non-spray formula, designed for direct application to exposed areas. Ideal for summer outings, hiking, evenings outdoors, or camping.
Sunscreen for face and body, mineral filter with zinc oxide, texture designed for outdoor use. Apply generously and reapply according to exposure.
This page is intentionally simple at first. It will be enriched over time based on customer questions, field feedback, and actual ARDESUN product usage.
The next guides may cover very concrete topics: the amount of sunscreen to apply, application on children, conservation of solid sticks in summer, order of sunscreen/repellent application, choosing the right format for a hike, or even preparing an outdoor bag for the family.
