TAKING CARE OF YOUR SKIN IN SUMMER
Even if our complexion shows a radiant glow with a pretty tan, the skin is nevertheless put to the test during the summer season.
The skin’s protective barrier (the hydrolipidic film) is weakened by heat and UV rays: UVA rays accelerate skin aging and UVB rays are responsible for sunburn. Throughout the summer, the skin can also be attacked by swimming or air conditioning, which dry out the epidermis.
Signs of fatigue in distressed skin can include redness, unusual dehydration (or even dryness), or tightness.
To avoid these inconveniences, it is essential to adapt your beauty routine to the summer.
Here are a few tips to adopt for a radiant complexion.

Here are a few tips to adopt for a radiant complexion.
THE FACE
The ideal morning reflex is to gently cleanse the skin of the face to wake it up while eliminating toxins and excess sebum released during the night.
The bonjour-bonsoir cleansing gel combined with the tender lotion is the ideal duo for fresh and radiant skin.
In order to maintain good skin quality throughout the day or after long exposure, hydration plays an essential role: replenish your skin with the essential beauty solution, followed by the hydra-glow sorbet, this hydration-boosting cream gel!
To sport an even tan and optimize skin hydration, let’s reconcile with exfoliation, often wrongly perceived as too aggressive. The immediate radiance scrub is perfect for dry, normal to combination skin in search of a glow.
Skin with imperfections also needs to use a gentle scrub like the minutie grain-free exfoliating nectar, which helps prevent skin thickening (a natural defense phenomenon against the sun) and prevent breakouts after the holidays.
After a suitable scrub, you can also indulge in the express hydrating mask for a thirst-quenching effect.
In the evening, don’t forget to remove your makeup!
The epidermis needs to breathe and oxygenate during the night.
So, rid it of impurities, traces of makeup, sand, sunscreen, and pollution with the tender milk for fans of light milk, the gentle cleansing milk, or the minutie cleansing nectar if your skin is dry, very dry, or fragile.
THE BODY
Just as much as for the face, hydration is essential for the body as well: after prolonged exposure to the sun, the risk of peeling skin is high.
The only way to avoid this inconvenience: avoid sunburn but also exfoliate, hydrate, and nourish!
To exfoliate, use the 2-in-1 Scrub to even out your tan and promote hydration.
To nourish the skin, the aerial oils provide a veil of nutrition with a dry finish.
They have the advantage of coming in 3 fragrances to suit every mood: fresh, fruity, and gourmet.
Finally, the Essence d’Estime from the nutrition & light range are the summer stars for preserving and enhancing the skin.
In addition to hydrating and nourishing the skin, the Soirée d’été Essence d’Estime has the triple advantage of preparing the skin for tanning, soothing it after sun exposure, and prolonging the tan.
For an iridescent effect, the Luminessence Essence d’Estime is perfect!
And for an extra touch of freshness, the Vert Mandarine Care Water hydrates the skin while leaving a gentle citrus scent in its wake without the risk of sunspots.
And of course, protect yourself from the sun by avoiding exposure between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m., always apply a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 to 50 (even when it’s cloudy!), and don’t forget to drink water regularly.
