the 3 must-have summer treatments

In small quantities, the sun is beneficial: it plays a vital role in the synthesis of vitamin D (bone calcification) and helps alleviate certain skin diseases (psoriasis, eczema, vitiligo, etc.). However, after 10 to 15 minutes of exposure, the effects of UVA and UVB are extremely harmful: appearance of brown spots, formation of deep wrinkles... and what we are going to treat today: drying of the skin and hair , which can lead to desquamation (the famous peeling skin).

Here are the 3 ultra-moisturizing and nourishing treatments to adopt to revitalize and strengthen the skin and hair before and after exposure to the sun. It's also the best way to prolong your tan.

Rich in natural moisturizing and firming active ingredients, this natural body treatment firms and revitalizes the skin. Its fluid texture hydrates the skin, while leaving a non-greasy finish.

In just a few weeks, the skin is visibly firmer, more hydrated, more luminous! And stronger against the sun!

Honey nourishes and protects against skin aging by promoting the elimination of free radicals. Brown algae extract stimulates cell tissue synthesis & prevents elastin degradation.

Apply morning and evening with upward circular massages.

ORGANIC FIRMING BODY TREATMENT

39€

The ideal facial treatment to hydrate the skin and achieve a tanned complexion WITHOUT exposure to the sun! Moisturizing and subtly self-tanning, it illuminates your skin for a naturally golden complexion without sun and without health risks!

Apply to the entire face preferably in the evening for a visible effect the next morning. Wash your hands thoroughly after application. Renew the application until you reach the desired tan and space out the applications to maintain the tan. For fair skin, use every other evening. For the most uniform shade possible, do not hesitate to exfoliate the skin the day before application.

Please note, this treatment does not intervene in the process of melanogenesis, it does not cause the formation of melanin (as during a real tan in the sun) and therefore does not constitute protection against damage from UV rays. In case of exposure, sunscreen is essential.

ORGANIC SUN CARE

Our iconic multi-function treatment is an essential in our summer kits!

The vegetable oils chosen (sesame, apricot kernel, jojoba) are the richest in complex fatty acids, capable of slipping through the stratum corneum and improving the quality of the intercellular cement. Once applied to the skin and hair, the dry oil literally “nourishes” them by supplying them with essential fatty acids (omega 3, 6, 9), antioxidants and vitamins A, D, E.

Our multi-function oil can be used in various ways:

1. As a nourishing treatment for the body (penetrates very quickly into the skin, without any greasy finish, and leaves the skin hydrated, nourished, and ultra-luminous).
Our dry oil is rich in complex fatty acids which improve the quality of the intercellular cement of the epidermis (this cement being lipidic in nature)

2. As a pre-shampoo mask (leave on for at least 30 minutes before shampooing, or ideally leave on overnight) for deeply nourished hair.

3. A few drops on the ends of the hair after shampooing to discipline it, nourish it and give it shine.
