• No shine for my skin
Under the effect of heat, the sebaceous glands of the skin rush. The parade: a matifying care whose active ingredients absorb the excess of sebum. A rebound effect during the day? One leaves his bag of mattifying leaves. As fine as silk and powdered with rice, they are patted on the forehead, the wings of the nose and the chin.

• An umbrella for the face
Yes to the breaks on the terrace or to the chat of friends on a lawn but with a minimum of protection. There is a tendency to believe that UV radiation is less harmful in the city than on the seashore. Error: our skin is still bombarded with UV. And in the long run, fine lines and brown spots appear slyly. Hence the importance, in summer, never to go out without applying a day care integrating an SPF. Recommended minimum rating: 15. Light and sensitive skins will target a higher SPF.

The ambient air absorbs the moisture released naturally by the skin and malmates the skin barrier which no longer plays its protective role. To avoid having dehydrated skin on the return of his colleagues, morning and evening, an "irrigation" strategy is put in place. Simplissime: just choose a moisturizing cream full of hyaluronic acid and mineral water soothing and regenerating.
