The end-of-year holidays mean big meals, rich in sugar and fat, unusual alcohol consumption and shorter nights. Changes in our diet and lifestyle are inevitably reflected on the face. Imperfections appear (spots, redness) and your complexion suffers (drawn features, dull complexion).
The skin then reacts by producing more sebum , which promotes the appearance of imperfections.
It is also a time when we wear makeup more regularly and in a more sophisticated way. Makeup removal is not always very effective (late bedtime, fatigue, etc.). Impurities then stagnate in the pores and on the skin.
Here are our tips for getting back glowing skin, a clearer complexion and beautiful skin texture after the holidays!
👉 Hydrate deeply
With the excesses of the holidays, our skin is dehydrated. The skin needs to regain its radiance and suppleness thanks to better hydration which allows to eliminate toxins that can cause imperfections.
The skin is composed of approximately 65% water. Hydration of the body is therefore the basis of healthy skin . It is necessary to drink plenty of water or sugar-free and alcohol-free drinks to provide sufficient water intake at the epidermis level and avoid drying out. The recommendation? 1.5L of water per day even in winter !
👉 Nourish your skin
Using nourishing products will help regulate sebum production . If your skin is well nourished, it will be less inflamed and produce less sebum. The pores will therefore be less clogged with dead skin cells, which will reduce the development of acne.
For this, our Emporte-Moi SOS stick balm will be your best ally! Thanks to its ultra-nourishing, non-sticky, 100% natural and certified organic formula, its 9 super-ingredients, it is THE treatment your skin needs every day and even more so during this period!
Our advice to not break our beauty routine : Apply it as a night cream! All over your face before going to bed!
👉 Detoxify your skin to combat skin imperfections

👉 Exfoliate your skin
Facial exfoliation helps, among other things , remove dead skin that can dull the complexion, release impurities accumulated on the skin and clogged pores.
Our Suspended Exfoliate-Me washing treatment is therefore the perfect ally for exfoliating your skin and fighting acne. It is both a gentle exfoliant thanks to organic plum kernel powder but also a very nourishing treatment, 8% superfatted thanks to organic coconut, avocado and olive oils, and organic shea butter that it contains. As it is preservative-free , 100% natural and organic with a 100% natural fragrance, it is respectful of your skin.
Please note: It is not recommended to do scrubs when you have white or red spots, despite what you might think, this promotes skin irritation and will aggravate existing lesions. On the other hand, if you have microcystic acne, the grain scrub will have a cleansing action!
👉 Find a balanced diet
So opt for a balanced diet to allow your skin to regenerate properly.
A diet rich in fruits and vegetables can help maintain healthy skin along with increased vitamin C intake. Avoid fatty and sugary foods that can cause blemishes.
We also recommend that you drink green tea which has a draining action and helps eliminate impurities!
