Choosing your moisturizer

It is THE flagship product of any self-respecting beauty routine. The moisturizer is nothing more and nothing less than our skin's daily guardian angel.

Its primary function is to maintain optimal skin hydration levels. Why is it so important? For our comfort, first of all (no one likes having tight skin); but also to prevent signs of skin aging (wrinkles, fine lines, etc.).

Because well-hydrated skin is skin that is better equipped against external stress factors that precipitate the appearance of signs of aging.

Add to that a handful of targeted active ingredients, a texture adapted to your skin type and a sensoriality that you like... And you get a high-performance and pleasant moisturizing cream that you will enjoy using every day. 😉

#1 Choose your day moisturizer.

The day cream for the face is applied in the morning. This is the final step in your skincare routine, after double cleansing, lotion, serum and eye contour.

Its role is above all protective. It is there to regulate the insensible losses of water that we are all faced with.

It is generally boosted with synergistic substances to help the skin strengthen its natural defenses. Whether you live in the city or in the countryside, whether you are 20 or 60, one thing is certain: it is essential to feeling good about yourself!

The diversity of formulas on the market today makes it possible to target any beauty fantasy.

#2 Choosing your night cream.

The night cream is there to help the skin “recover” from the day. It supports its cellular regeneration (which peaks around 1 a.m.!) Because it is during the night that the skin repairs itself, particularly in the event of pigment spots, imperfections or sunburn.

The night cream supports the skin in this delicate process. Often more concentrated in active substances than day moisturizing cream, it can target specific beauty concerns: anti-aging, enlarged pores, redness, etc.

Some emulsions are reserved for nighttime use, because they contain very active substances known to be photosensitizing. This is the case for retinol and AHAs, for example.

In this situation, remember to apply an SPF the next morning!

#3 Bonuses to layer on top of your moisturizer.

Remember: moisturizer is not an end in itself. It is even more effective and adapted to your needs if it takes place in a well-thought-out routine beforehand.

You can of course go straight to makeup after applying your cream. Some of them also make excellent makeup bases.

But in most cases, it is preferable to consider a little “topping” to make a difference in the beauty and comfort of your skin.

UV alert? Hop, sunscreen!

The sun may not shine all year round - accelerated skin aging is a threat present 365 days a year.

Even without living in the tropics, an SPF is a decisive element in protecting your skin from free radicals generated by some of the sun's radiation.

Dry skin alert? Hop, an oil on top of my cream!

Some particularly dry skin finds it difficult to be satisfied with a moisturizer.

To preserve their comfort for longer, you can layer a facial oil on top of your cream. Its lipids will help to “seal” hydration and strengthen the skin barrier.
