Long live good weather and warmth! We've emerged from hibernation, eagerly anticipating the sunshine we've missed so much. We dream of feeling the sun's rays warming our skin and finally getting our fill of natural vitamin D. Now is the time to prepare our skin for the beautiful season, so we can welcome summer with confidence.
Skin's Needs in Summer
First, it's essential to understand the skin's needs. Let's see how it reacts to summer heat. In summer, the skin tends to produce more sebum, which can lead to shine and imperfections. Moreover, intense sun exposure can cause premature skin aging and hyperpigmentation. It is therefore crucial to adapt your beauty routine to address these challenges.
The Basics
Cleansing:
So, we continue to cleanse our skin thoroughly with our multi-action cleansing balm. We cleanse our face at the end of the day to deeply remove sweat, dirt, and sunscreen residue to maintain healthy skin. Our balm, with its sebum-regulating action, helps combat the harmful effects of solar radiation and soothes the skin after sun exposure.
Exfoliation:
Exfoliation is often an overlooked step in skincare, but it is crucial. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells and prevents sebum buildup, which causes minor imperfections. Gently exfoliate your skin once or twice a week, or less, depending on your skin sensitivity.
Hydration:
Hydration helps combat dryness, even in summer! Intense heat,
increased humidity, and air conditioning can disrupt the skin's moisture balance, leading to dryness and a dull complexion. Even though summer brings its share of sebum, it is still necessary to hydrate and nourish your skin. Indeed, sebum production indicates that our skin is dehydrated. For all these reasons, at Yanél cosmetic nutritive, we are aware of the importance of hydration. With our universal balm containing grapeseed oil and mango butter, your skin will be hydrated, soothed, plumped, and protected from external aggressions (sun, wind, humidity).
Summer Makeup
In summer, it's important to adjust your makeup routine. After your basic skincare, your skin is ready for our nutritive foundation. Apply the product to strategic areas such as the forehead, nose, cheekbones, and chin. Using our dampened plant-based sponge, gently blend for an even finish. If certain areas require more coverage to conceal redness, for example, it is possible to apply a second layer specifically to these areas.
In some cases, the foundation color may need to be adjusted to better match your tan. Don't hesitate to ask for advice!
For combination or oily skin, it is recommended to finish with our mattifying loose powder to set makeup and control shine for up to 9 hours. The mattifying powder and Yanél nutritive cosmetic foundation offer SPF 30 sun protection, just like our makeup range. Therefore, an additional sunscreen is not essential unless there is prolonged sun exposure.
Finally, your skin is ready for a radiant summer. Yanél nutritive cosmetic is
always by your side to enhance your natural beauty while protecting the
planet.
