What beauty routine should you adopt after your holiday to regenerate your skin and restore the right level of moisture? Here are our tips for healthy, glowing skin.
1. Cleansing
After weeks of exposure to sun, wind and salt water, the skin can accumulate impurities and residues. Start your post-holiday routine with a deep but gentle cleansing of the skin. Use an effective cleanser that removes impurities without irritating or drying out the skin.
For gentle cleansing, try our Postbiotic Cleansing Foam.
2. Exfoliation
Exfoliation is essential to remove dead cells and impurities in the top layer of the skin and promote cell renewal. After the summer, opt for gentle exfoliants that act in depth without irritating. A good exfoliation, as well as leaving the skin clean and soft, prepares it for subsequent treatments.
For a revitalising body exfoliation try our Sugar Body Scrub.
3. Moisturising
The sun and high temperatures can dehydrate the skin, making it dry and dull. To restore hydration, it is advisable to use ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, which acts on maintaining the skin's water balance, as well as having tissue repairing and regenerating properties. In addition to applying specific products, such as serums and creams, it is also important to moisturise from within, drinking plenty of water and eating a healthy diet rich in seasonal fruit and vegetables.
For deep hydration, try our Hyaluronic Active Serum in combination with our Hyaluronic Active Cream.
4. Antioxidants
After the prolonged photo-exposure of summer, the skin needs support to counteract the production of free radicals, which lead to unpleasant consequences such as wrinkles and spots.
This is why it is essential to include in your post-holiday beauty routine products containing antioxidants that can counteract skin ageing and oxidative stress. Vitamin C, vitamin E and polyphenols are valuable ingredients for their ability to restore the skin barrier and prevent premature ageing.
For an antioxidant action on the skin try our Vitamin C Active Serum.
5. Sun protection
Even though summer is almost over, protecting yourself from the sun remains essential. UV rays can damage the skin at any time of year, so it is important to use sunscreen before any prolonged exposure to the sun. Protecting the skin not only prevents premature ageing, but also helps maintain a healthy, radiant appearance over time.
For UVA and UVB protection try our Face Cream SPF 50+.
