Prepare your skin for the arrival of summer

Tip #2 : When and how should I use a body scrub ?

In summer, body scrubs are essential for luminous skin and a harmonious tan. Use them once or twice a week to eliminate dead cells and get smoother, revitalised skin.

Our tips :

• When waxing, exfoliate the day before to soften the skin and reduce pain.
• Before exposure to the sun, exfoliate the day before to remove all impurities and ensure an even tan. Always use sun protection if you are going to be in the sun.

Contrary to popular belief, you can exfoliate skin that is already tanned, but this will in no way take away the tan, as it is a pigmentation process activated by the synthesis of melanin. Your skin will therefore be rid of the impurities accumulated during the summer, which will prolong and enhance your tan.

Adjust the frequency of exfoliation according to your skin type :

• Normal skin : Once or twice a week is enough to eliminate dead cells and maintain smooth skin.
• Dry and dehydrated skin : Exfoliate every fortnight to avoid irritating the skin while still enjoying the benefits of exfoliation.
• Combination to oily skin : Once a week is ideal to control excess sebum without causing overproduction.
