Summer is coming to an end, the holidays are behind us. During this period, your skin has been subjected to harsh ordeals: exposure to the sun, chlorine, salt and sand. This summer cocktail weakens your skin. Result? It is dehydrated, dry and tight.
Discover how to care of your skin and repair it after the summer.
Moisturising
Moisturising is the key to repair our skin and above all to prevent it from turning into crocodile skin. Moisturizing starts from inside, drink regularly throughout the day (about 2 L per day).
Start moisturizing your skin as soon as you shower using our Washing Cares enriched with Shea Butter. After your shower, moisturize your body with one of our Shea Body Milks or for the driest skin, use our Shea Butters to repair your skin.
To moisturise your face, apply a treatment in the morning and also in the evening before going to bed. This is because at night our skin cells regenerate and it is therefore just as important to apply a treatment in the evening as it is in the morning.
If your skin is dry and tight, apply our Shea Hydra Mask once a week.
Scrubs
Remember to exfoliate your body and face once a week to prevent your skin from peeling. For your face, opt for a gentle exfoliation so as not to damage your skin.
Food
For radiant skin, a water-rich diet is essential.
So, eat cucumber! It is 96% water and is low in calories, you can combine it with tomato which is also full of water and vitamins.
Watermelon is the food richest in water, it also has vitamins and minerals, so why deprive yourself of it?
Favour lipids that help to nourish the skin depth. Favour omega 3 and 6 found in fish, especially salmon and tuna, but also in oils such as walnut and rapeseed oil. Be careful to consume them in moderation.
Also take vitamin E. A powerful antioxidant, vitamin E helps to moisturise the skin but above all to fight against the signs of ageing. It is notably found in oilseeds such as almonds, hazelnuts and walnuts but also in avocado.
