:Caucasian skin is the one that ages the fastest. Why so much injustice? Because it is the thinnest but also the most sensitive (whether normal, mixed or dry) to external aggressions (wind, cold, sun, pollution). There, it is urgent to increase the resistance of the skin and to protect it to limit the appearance of spots, redness and wrinkles. All while signing a “non-aggression” pact.
• The idea:We favor extreme softness by limiting contact with tap water (limestone =dehydration) and using micellar water or a leave-in milk adapted to your skin type (dry, combination, oily) .
• The good gesture:We use soft cotton and we make delicate gestures by touching (we do not clean our sink but our face!) so as not to wrinkle this large fragile. We (re)learn to take time and exaggerate the softness until the last cotton must be perfect.
• We love it:a pioneer in the field and highly tolerant, the darling of make-up artists cleanses the face and eyes, decongests, soothes and even protects against waterproof make-up. Créaline H2O, Bioderma, from €4.35
• The idea:before the age of 40, hydration is one of the major axes of anti-aging. By ensuring the right level of water, we prevent aging in the long term but we also avoid the small wrinkles of dehydration which shoot down the mine from midday
• The right gesture:we draw a super moisturizing serum that is suitable for all skin types. And slip it on like lingerie under your day cream.
• We love it:its texture to die for is matched only by its moisturizing properties. A revisited must that fills us with… “the skin”. Hydra Life Sorbet Serum, Dior, €69.50
• The idea:protect your skin and boost its defenses against internal (stress, cigarettes, bad food, etc.) and external (light, UV, pollution, cold) oxidative attacks. So many silent attacks that bring the epidermis back with full force into aging...
• The right gesture:we choose a serum overdosed in anti-oxidant active ingredients (vitamin C, A, E, polyphenols, etc.), which can be used in the evening, in the morning or both. Bonus:this radiance booster, armed against pollution, also has a preventive action on dark spots and wrinkles.
• We love it:a natural and advanced formula boosted with 58% active and anti-oxidant concentration, to strengthen the skin, act on dark spots, boost cell renewal and correct skin texture. Bio-Perfecteur C Corrective Serum, Complex €27.98
• The idea:if we have a vital need for sunlight (in particular to synthesize vitamin D), we do not lose sight of the fact that it is the main cause of skin aging. And not only in summer:all year round, the skin needs to be protected from (invisible) UV rays, but also from visible light, which contributes to the appearance of pigment spots.
• The right gesture:This is THE most important rule! We systematize the use of an SPF over our day cream, 25 in winter and 50 in spring. We try to reapply it at least once a day, without forgetting the eye and lip contour as well as the décolleté.
• We love it:its light texture like the wind whose SPF 50 UVB-UVA and the concentrate of anti-pollution plant extracts place the skin under high protection. Multi-Protection Screen SPF50 UV Plus, Clarins.
• The idea:very thirsty, Caucasian skin needs to constantly raise the water level. The best ally? The magic moisturizing mask to plump up skin on the kneecaps.
• The right gesture:When? Twice a week (or more if needed). How? 'Or' What ? You can handle it as you wish by leaving it on for 5 to 10 minutes in the morning before leaving or in the evening before going out, or by leaving it to act all night.
• We love it:for its micro and macro algae which have a triple hydration, radiance and anti-oxidant effect. Algenist Radiance Algae Mask c/o Sephora, €49.50
Very fair skin blush for nothing. It's even worse if they provoke their epidermis with scrubs, too much sun, sudden changes in temperature, bearded people... We test the specific anti-redness ranges:formulated with plant extracts, they have a background that inhibits the stimulation of the vessels and an immediate action that limits redness.
