Double cleansing for beautiful skin

Cleansing your skin properly every day helps keep your skin looking beautiful, radiant and healthy for a long time . In fact, skin that is completely free of all its impurities regenerates better overnight. Also, applying skincare products to perfectly clean skin will be much more effective because the active ingredients contained in the products will be better absorbed by the skin.

Double cleansing involves first removing makeup from your face using an oil or cleansing milk . This removes excess sebum and makeup from your skin. Then, you need to deeply cleanse your skin with a gentle cleanser , such as Léonia's Gentle Cleansing Gel with White Tea . This second step removes any remaining pollution, sebum, and perspiration that has accumulated during the day. Double cleansing allows your skin to breathe and regenerate better.

Daily hydration to bring comfort to the skin

Once the skin is perfectly cleansed, moisturizing is the essential step to maintain radiant skin . For 100% effective hydration, it is essential to apply a serum concentrated in active ingredients then a moisturizer which will lock in these active ingredients and bring more comfort to the skin .

One scrub and one mask per week

Every 28 days, the skin renews itself. But, over the years, this process slows down. To boost cell renewal, it is important to exfoliate once or twice a week . Using a gentle exfoliant removes dead skin and unclogs pores. The skin is thus freed from dead cells that dull the complexion, essential for a radiant complexion!
After exfoliating, your skin is ready to receive care. This is the perfect time to apply a mask : hydrating, nourishing, balancing, radiance-enhancing... Choose a mask based on your skin type and current skin concerns.

Healthy diet and plenty of water

Having bright, healthy skin also starts with what you eat! Choose fruits and vegetables , especially those rich in beta carotene , a powerful antioxidant. They are found in sweet potatoes, carrots, pumpkin, apricots, mango, etc. Also, include fish and seafood, which are rich in Omega 3 .
To hydrate the skin from the inside out and improve the elimination of toxins, drink 1.5 to 2L of water per day . Another tip: drink organic tea ! Hot or iced, it provides a significant amount of antioxidants for the body and skin. Hydration is a simple but essential step that purifies the body and brightens the complexion.

Restful sleep

Having a very short night's sleep often means waking up with a pale, tired complexion . Indeed, sleep is essential for a beautiful complexion, because it is during the night that the skin and cells regenerate. The same goes for dark circles and puffiness that mark fatigue and aging. A good night's sleep is therefore essential for a bright, radiant complexion.
