Skin:everything you need to start right away #3

Taking care of the neckline

Why is this important? Neck and décolleté are an extension of the face and, if we are not careful, these areas (thin and very exposed) tend to be covered with brown spots and to wrinkle in a “sharpei” way from the age of 30. So we get into the habit of stretching out our serums, day and night creams, our mask,

etc until the birth of the breasts.

I'll get started right away:express ironing

How to straighten a “sun pleat”? By applying a moisturizing (or anti-wrinkle) serum to the neck and

low-cut. Run a towel under hot water, wring it out and unfold it over it. Remove it as soon as it has cooled:plumped, lifted skin guaranteed.

My allies:anti-dark spots overdosed in vitamin C.

Remove makeup religiously

Why is this important? Because, during the day, the pores get clogged (dust + polluting particles + sweat + sebum) while at night, the skin regenerates. For it to be able to detoxify, it must therefore be completely cleansed of the impurities that suffocate it.

I'll get started right away:full oil make-up removal

Fast and effective, it is suitable for all skin types (even sensitive and oily), as it dissolves impurities and the most stubborn make-up on the eyes (without stinging!). Another advantage:its fluid texture can be massaged with the fingers, and that, the epidermis loves it. Pour a little make-up remover oil between your hands, massage the entire face dry, emulsify with water, then rinse. Magic:it is eliminated in the form of milk and leaves the skin clean as ever.

My allies:sensual make-up removers to turn drudgery into pleasure.

Oxygenate (regularly)

Why is this important? Beautiful skin is skin that breathes. The greater the influx of oxygen, the more your metabolism is boosted:circulation is stimulated, cells regenerate, eliminate toxins... Long-lasting fresh complexion guaranteed.

I'll get started right away:I breathe in yoga mode

At home or at work, treat yourself to an oxygen break, morning and evening and before each meal (=avoid overindulging), ideal for allowing the whole body to breathe and relieve stress. We sit comfortably, mouth closed, we put the thumb on the right nostril, we inhale for a long time by the left until filling the lungs, we block the breath for 2 seconds by closing both nostrils, then we exhale slowly through the nostril right by pressing the left nostril. Breathe in again through the right nostril and so on (2 to 5 minutes).

At what age should you invest in your first anti-wrinkle cream?

It is on average around 30-35 years old that the need for "targeted" care is felt, when cell regeneration begins to slow down and wrinkles hit the encrust. We start with a treatment based on “muscular” active ingredients (peptides, vitamins, etc.) which helps to reboost elasticity, while preventing the furrows from widening. Before treating yourself to a complete line, you can already opt for a concentrated serum:it optimizes the moisturizer (and it shows immediately).
