Tanned or not, sun cream is your best ally

Tanned skin exposed to the sun without sunscreen is tantamount to using... SPF2, i.e. non-existent protection... So rather than tempting the arrival of a nasty sunburn that could eventually turn into a tan, and above all to reduce the risk of skin cancer, we take the lead with a high level of sun protection.

Mineral sunscreen with anti-aging protection: SPF50 Mineral Drops Niacinamide + Green Tea Invisible Sunscreen Odacité 

The easy-to-carry clean duo : Sun Care Face Cream SPF50+ & Sun Body Cream SPF50+ Oh My Cream Skincare

Choosing the right niche for exposure

What's best? Make an appointment with the sun, preferably before 12pm or after 4pm. As for duration, expose yourself gradually, depending on your phototype and location. As a guide, fair skin can become sunburnt in 15 minutes if the sun is extreme!

Exfoliate to boost radiance

To restore and prolong a luminous, even, long-lasting tan (and before applying self-tanner), the trick is to remove dead cells from the skin's surface. For the body, as for the face, once or twice a week is more than enough. And don't forget to include an exfoliation session before your vacation, for a more harmonious tan.

Tinkering with self-tanner

To avoid being tempted by the sun's excesses and give your skin a pretty summer glow, apply The Classic Hint of Summer Self-Tanning Glow Rudolph Care. To apply this self-tanner to the face, mix a few drops directly with your daily moisturizer (one squeeze is all it takes). And for each area of the body (arms, legs, chest...), mix a pump with a body cream such as the Lait Hydratant Oh My Cream Skincare, a fluid milk with a gentle oat and coconut fragrance, ideal for nourishing and moisturizing your skin this summer.

Bonus: this radiant self-tanner is also ideal for reducing swimsuit marks;-)

The exfoliating tip that boosts circulation

For a detoxifying ritual that will do you good even on vacation, grab your Dry Body Brush Oh My Cream Skincare ! This dry massage stimulates lymphatic circulation and removes dead skin, leaving you with smooth skin and light legs. And to avoid over-exfoliating your skin, don't perform your dry massage before exfoliation, or on the same day!

Choosing the right supplement

If you want to bask in the sun with complete peace of mind, opt for a multi-action supplement that boosts your skin's hydration, protects it from the harmful effects of the sun and brings out its radiance with the cult nugget L'Essentiel Peau Combeau. The ideal ally to prepare skin for the sun by strengthening its natural defenses and preventing imperfections!

Moisturize to make your tan last

There's no getting around it: skin dehydrates faster in the sun. To avoid damaged, dull skin and keep your pretty glow, drink more water throughout the day and saturate your skin with moisturizing formulas after exposure for a plump oval and soft skin.  

For the body : theAfterglow Body Oil Huile Corps Éclat Goop Beauty for oil fans who also want to boost their skin's glow.  

And to soothe after sun exposure: Aftersun Shimmer Sorbet Après-Soleil Éclat Rudolph Care, an ultra-fresh, soothing after-sun treatment that leaves the skin with a lovely golden glow while moisturizing.

For the face : To moisturize your skin, add the Moisturising Mask Susanne Kaufmann, an intensely nourishing mask that softens, repairs and smoothes features for plumped-up skin all summer long!

For skin lacking water: Baptise Gelée Ultra-Hydratante Antipodes, this ultra-moisturizing gel quenches the thirst of all skin types, leaving a light, comfortable finish.

Sublimate with sun powder

We're not reinventing powder... though! This great classic remains a must-have for enhancing or even creating a beautiful tan from scratch. Apply Bronzing Powder Oh My Cream Skincare Bronzing Powder by drawing a 3 on each side of the face (cheeks, chin and forehead) and your skin is subtly golden.
