WHAT TEXTURE OF CARE TO CHOOSE TO HYDRATE MY BODY?

All skin types require regular hydration to avoid discomfort, tightness and fine lines. However, fat requirements to strengthen the surface hydrolipid barrier vary depending on skin type and seasons. The goal is to find the right balance between hydration and lipids, adapting products accordingly, from the lightest to the richest treatments.

Knowing how to determine the needs of my skin based on its appearance:

In order to meet your body's needs, it is essential to determine the specific requirements of your skin. These needs may include hydration, nutrition, repair, firmness and tone.

- If your skin is rough and has a crocodile-like appearance, it is considered dry. This condition can be chronic and result from genetic or environmental factors such as the use of unsuitable skincare products, exposure to extreme temperatures or prolonged exposure to hot water. To treat dry skin, it is recommended to use products rich in lipids which nourish and protect the skin barrier.

- If your skin is irritated , tingly, and tight, it is dehydrated. Dehydration is usually a temporary condition, often caused by environmental factors such as cold weather, wind or exposure to the sun. To treat dehydrated skin, the use of moisturizing products is recommended, as they help retain moisture in the skin.

- If your skin seems loose and lacks tone , this indicates a lack of firmness and tone. With age, collagen production decreases in quality and quantity, leading to a loss of skin tone and firmness. Factors such as sun exposure, smoking, alcohol consumption, and oxidative stress can accelerate this skin aging process. To counter this sagging, the use of firming and sculpting products is recommended, in addition to a healthy lifestyle.

Choose the treatment texture adapted to your concerns

- The creams are ideal for normal to dry skin . Their creamy texture, richer than that of milks, requires a light massage to promote their absorption. For example, Nohèm moisturizing cream is an ultra-concentrated option that combines hydration and firming effect. Massage it for better penetration and to stimulate blood circulation.

- Balms and butters are suitable for dry, damaged and sensitive skin. These nourishing and repairing products leave a light oily layer on the surface of the skin for a few minutes. For example, our ultra -repairing multi-purpose balm offers effective repair, soothing action, and deep nourishment for the most needy areas. Its melting texture is easy to apply by heating the product in the palm of your hand.

- Oils are intended for very dry skin. They provide fatty acids to limit the evaporation of water, vitamins, and antioxidants to slow down skin aging. For example, our magic oil from Africa is a concentrate of moisturizing and repairing active ingredients for supple and comfortable skin. It penetrates easily and creates a protective film on your skin. This option is ideal for dry skin and people suffering from eczema or psoriasis to space out their attacks.
