Essential skincare for the vacation of your dreams !

Beauty, Tips

It's finally summer vacation ! Throw your swimsuits, bikinis, pareos, sundresses, hiking outfits galore in your suitcase. To finish things up, you just need to fill a toiletry bag with your favorite skincare products. No need to make it too heavy: a few essentials are enough. Let us tell you the ones you need !

Staying Hydrated : the Basics

On vacation, the first thing you want to do is relax ! And what better way than making sure your skin is looking radiant, nourished, and hydrated ? In the summer, your skin does not need very oily skincare. Nevertheless, it still has to maintain its acid mantle, so here is some advice :

  • Drink at least 1.5 l of water daily (more if you are getting physical exercise or spending a lot of time in the sun).
  • Apply moisturizing and protective skincare in the morning and evening to pamper your skin.
  • Keep a reparative care product close, to be applied after overdoing it in the sun, staying out too long, or insufficiently protected.

Protect Yourself from the Sun for Radiant Skin

The must of the must ? Sunscreen ! Choose one according to your skin color (the lighter your complexion, the higher SPF required) and the weather conditions. However reactive your skin gets when exposed to the sun, you should always use sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or above. Apply it in the morning, after moisturizing, then every two hours if you stay outside. Don’t forget, if you want the beautiful tan you have been dreaming about for months without damaging your skin, avoid going out in the sun between noon and 4PM.

Don’t have much room in your suitcase ? For your face, opt for one of our Tinted Sun Creams. These are genuinely two-in-one skincare products, replacing your BB cream while keeping you protected from the sun. Just the thing for preventing unsightly pigmentation spots and a perfectly uniform complexion !
