1. Exfoliate for a better tan

Your vacation departure is imminent? One week before packing your suitcase, indulge yourself to a body scrub at the Anne Semonin Spa! Get rid of the dead cells: your skin will be soft and smooth, ready to receive the benefits of the sun! At arrival, gently continue with the Nude Body Scrub. This exfoliator combines white sand from Bora Bora, rose quartz powder and white hibiscus extract in a sublime nourishing texture. Use it twice a week: this is "the" solution to get an even tan and a pretty glowy skin!

2. Stay hydrated from head to toe

Well hydrated skin means skin that is better protected and stronger against the drying effects of heat, air conditioning, sun ... After your shower, apply the Moisturizing Milk on your body: with its light texture and its formula based on soybean oil, candelilla wax and seaweed extracts, Memoires d'Été Hydrating Body Lotion is simply perfect! Once or twice a week, in the evening only, use a Gel Mask on your face. This energizing treatment is enriched with marine trace elements and essential oils: it will restore your skin’s radiance and emphasize your beautiful, tanned complexion. !

3. Consume beautiful skin foods

The more colorful your plate, the richer it is in vitamins! In summer, stock up on seasonal fruits and vegetables, starting with sun-kissed tomatoes! Rich in vitamins A, B3, B6, C, E, K, they also contain copper, manganese, potassium and lycophene, a powerful antioxidant. Also enjoy eggplant, zucchini, melons, peaches, apricots ... In addition to vitamins, they are rich in water and moisturize your skin from the inside out.

4. Cleanse your skin well

No way to ignore this essential beauty gesture during the holidays! Under the effect of the wind, sea water, sunscreen, and perspiration, our face needs to get rid of the sebum and impurities accumulated during the day. For perfectly cleansed skin, use the Oligo Cleansing Gel! Its soap-free formula is enriched with red algae: it will leave your skin fresh and clear without attacking or drying it out.

5. Adopt the right serum

The needs of your skin are different from season to season. With its "all-in-one" action, the Phytarosa Serum is a real summer must-have! Its beautiful formula with vegetable oils does not contain essential oil: you can therefore use it as a day care product, to prepare the skin for the sun and enhance your tan and in the evening, it will soothe and deeply nourish. Alone or under your day cream, the choice is yours! To optimize its action, start the application 30 days before the exposure to the sun.

6. Protect yourself with sun filters

Whether it's sunny or not, UV rays are very powerful in the summer. In town, in the mountains or by the sea, do not forget to well protect your skin, even if you are already tanned. Otherwise, beware of burns and accelerated skin aging! At Anne Semonin, the Oligo Protect Cream contains an SPF 30 sun filter, which acts as a real anti-UVA and UVB shield. Its formula also contains marine extracts to strengthen the epidermis and maintain an optimal level of hydration. It keeps the skin supple and perfectly hydrated. For the body, choose a sun cream with at least a SPF 30. Do not forget to reapply regularly! !

7. Limit the exposure to the sun

The sun's rays on our skin are good for our health. They boost our mood and help metabolizing the Vitamin D, which is essential for preventing osteoporosis, strengthening immunity, etc. But in excess and without precautions, the action of UV rays can be harmful: burns, accelerated skin aging, even skin cancer. To preserve the skin, avoid exposure between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m., when the sun is at its zenith. Protect your face with a hat. And remember that sand and water are powerful reflectors, which amplify the action of the UV.

8. Prolog your glow until late September ...
