How do you take care of your skin in summer to avoid blemishes?

The cold cream textures and cocooning skincare products of winter days are a thing of the past... Summer has arrived, and it's time to replace our comforting routine with lightweight cosmetics combining intense hydration, a cooling effect and sun protection against UV rays! But be careful, because the change of season also means free rein for imperfections. So for a pimple-free summer, discover our beauty tips to help your skin make the transition as smoothly as possible...

Why change your skincare routine in summer?

Summer is the ideal time to adapt your skin care routine to keep your skin hydrated, give it a real burst of freshness while protecting it from the harmful effects of the sun and preventing back-to-school imperfections. Because in this summer season, with rising temperatures, repeated bathing, not to mention perspiration and heat, water tends to escape from the tissues,and the skin is thirsty, very thirsty... And the phenomenon is exacerbated when we travel, as the often over-air-conditioned transport also takes its toll on our skin. The secret? Opt for a routine with airy formulas and a beautiful skin effect. Mistmist, serum, gel cream, we opt for water-laden textures for a fresh complexion and to put potential skin problems to rest.

Gestures to revive radiance and avoid a dull complexion

Before leaving on vacation, we treat ourselves to an exfoliation treatment. What's the point? With fewer UV rays, it's the perfect time to get rid of dead skin cells

Night serum or exfoliating mask: adapt to your skin:

  • Exfoliating Powder Oh My Cream Skincare: the perfect complexion powder! Soft to the touch, it transforms into a creamy mousse on contact with water to refine skin texture and reveal a fresh, luminous complexion. A must-have for skin prone to imperfections and pigmentation spots. 
  • Glycolactic New Skin Radiance Mask Ren Skincare: This orange gel mask is perfect for restoring radiance to normal to combination skin. Rinsed off, it leaves skin clean and smooth. We also like the combination of glycolic acid and lactic acid, which simultaneously treats brown spots.
  • Good Genes Sunday Riley: This multi-functional serum is the ideal complexion perfector! Smoothing and anti-imperfections, it reduces all skin problems: small pimples, dilated pores and blackheads, while boosting the complexion's radiance! It's the ideal alternative for those who don't have the patience to leave a mask on, as it works overnight while you sleep!

Purify and detoxify with a gentle mask

We complete our exfoliating ritual with the application ofa gentle purifying mask to detoxify the skin, prevent the appearance of imperfections and dislodge the last dead cells responsible for a dull complexion.

  • Charcoal Detox Mask Patyka: With its non-drying texture and 3 key active ingredients, this detoxifying charcoal mask unclogs pores while purifying the skin and reducing skin marks. The ideal ally for combination to oily skin!

  • Clarifying Mask Masque Clarifiant Tata Harper A solution for skin types requiring deeper cleansing, this enzyme-enriched purifying paste for problem skin purifies, calms inflammation and combats excess sebaceous secretions, without drying out the skin.

  • Cleansing Mask Oh My Cream Skincare: With its creamy texture and fresh eucalyptus fragrance, this mask cleanses and purifies the skin to reduce imperfections, absorb excess sebum and impurities and restore skin comfort. 

#seo: summer floral mist

Adopt floral water: the essential boost of freshness

It's the ultimate refreshing gesture, but above all it's the ally of oily skin. Indeed, by cleansing your oily skin in the morning, you risk damaging the hydrolipidic film and inviting your skin to produce even more sebum to compensate for the lack of a protective barrier. The solution for cleansing oily skin in the morning? Floral mist! Unlike a simple rinse-off toner, floral water is a real hydration booster, moisturizing every cell layer.

  • CoQ-10 Toner Coq-10 Indie Lee: this pre-serum lotion balances skin pH to boost hydration and protection against pollution.

  • Le Beau Reset Ulé: The spray to have in your bag for a hydration boost that brightens the complexion. On the skin's menu: Ulé plant extract, Pure Botany Blend to prevent skin ageing, and hyaluronic acid to intensely quench the epidermis!

  • Purifying Balancing Lotion Patyka: An option for blemish-prone skin, we love this formula developed by Patyka, the French brand of organic face care products. Alcohol-free and boosted with prebiotics and sweet mint floral water, it reduces shine and blurs imperfections, while smoothing and refining skin texture.

Opt for the right moisturizers

To take good care of your skin, change your day care for a lighter, less oily formula. The aim: to avoid overloading the skin as the seasons change.

  • Active Moist Dermalogica: Packed with water (thanks to hyaluronic acid) and non-comedogenic, this light cream preserves the elasticity of normal to combination skin, without lipid overload.

  • Aquarius Pore Purifying Clarity Cream Crème Clarifiante Purifiante Herbivore: This regulating moisturizing cream combines blue chamomile with zinc to moisturize, soothe and rebalance blemish-prone skin. A complete formula for pimples, hydration and soothing in a single gesture!

  • Baptise Gelée Ultra-Hydratante Antipodes: With botanical extracts from New Zealand, this featherweight, ultra-moisturizing gel quenches the thirst of all skin types, while improving hydration for a plumped, smoothed oval!

#seo: clean sun creams

Choosing the right sun protection for the city

Anticipate summer lunches on the terrace by choosing the right non-comedogenic sun cream for your skin , to avoid pimples. You can also kill two birds with one stone, since protecting your skin from the sun is also an anti-wrinkle measure that prevents skin ageing and preserves its firmness.

  • Sun Care Face Cream SPF50+ - Patyka Patyka: Combining high protection and high tolerance, this universal sun cream protects the skin from UVA and UVB rays while soothing and moisturizing the skin, all without a trace of white!

The back-to-school routine for pimples

With UV rays, our skin thickens to better protect itself, accumulating sebum and dead cells beneath the horny layer. When the skin returns to its normal thickness at the end of the vacations, pimples, micro-cysts and shine reappear... The right back-to-school anti-blemish routine to adopt ? Twice a week, we cleanse our skin with Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant to eliminate dead cells and boost radiance. We also add a purifying serum to our routine with Age Bright Clearing Serum Dermalogica. And to complete the routine, we recommend a course of Microbiote & Peau Atelier Nubio.
