There are those who tan in a flash and... those with fair skin, those who have made sunburn an inevitability and beautiful tanned skin an unattainable dream. Yes, all phototypes are unequal when it comes to the sun, and some skins have difficulty synthesizing the precious melanin that gives them their famous tan. So what if this summer, at last, you could get a tan? Before, during and after, discover our special light-skin program!
Before you go on vacation
A few weeks before and as soon as the first rays appear, we start by exfoliating: in addition to smoothing the skin by exfoliating dead cells, it gives the skin more radiance. This applies to the body as well as the face. Sensitive skin on the face? We're thinking of exfoliating it with our Exfoliating Powder Oh My Cream Skincare, once or twice a week. For the body, where the epidermis is thicker, we can use grains like with our Revitalizing Body Scrub Patyka. Two weeks before exposure to the sun, prepare your skin with a dietary supplement: We want... a sublime tan Atelier Nubio prepares the skin for the sun, stimulating tanning while protecting the skin from free radicals. The result: a harmonious, long-lasting tan and boosted defenses against the sun's rays. Ideal for sensitive skin with a tendency to burn, or if you're prone to the notorious sun allergy...

Finally, apply a light self-tanner to body and face with The Classic Hint of Summer Self-Tanning Radiance Rudolph Care, once every three days, to maintain a natural-looking result.
