Cleansing, the foundation of healthy skin

Let's face it, skin cleansing is often considered a chore we'd like to do without. Yet there's no more important step to healthy, radiant skin. If there were only one thing to keep in mind, it would undoubtedly be this one!

Cleansing your skin doesn't simply mean lathering it up, which isn't for everyone. It's about finding the right gestures and skin care products for each type of skin, to cleanse thoroughly and gently. Here are a few tips to help you in this key stage...

WHY SHOULD YOU CLEANSE YOUR FACE PROPERLY?

Our skin is our body's first line of protection and defense. No matter which part of the body we cleanse, the principle is always the same: it's all about removing accumulated deposits, waste and impurities.

In the case of the fragile skin of our face, it's essential to rid it of dust and pollution, dead skin, make-up and excess sebum. If not removed, these elements can accumulate in the pores and clog them.

After careful, respectful cleansing, your skin will be clear and your complexion radiant. The ritual of cleansing the skin is a moment of care that shouldn't be rushed. In addition to the feeling of well-being, a gentle massage will stimulate blood microcirculation and promote cell renewal.

MAKE-UP REMOVAL & CLEANSING, THE BASIS FOR HEALTHY SKIN

Soap is pleasant and cleansing, but preferably for the hands. It has a tendency to destroy the natural hydrolipidic film that protects the skin.

As for tap water, if it is too hard, it contributes to drying out the epidermis.

For facial cleansing, it is important to choose gentle cleansing products, containing soap- and alcohol-free ingredients of natural origin, and adapted to your skin type . Discover our Oligo Cleansing Gel for effective cleansing that respects your skin's balance.

This also applies to oily skin, which may appear healthier and less shiny after washing with soap, but on which the destruction of the hydrolipidic film also has an impact.

MORNING OR EVENING SKIN CLEANSING?

Double cleansing is essential. Morning cleansing is the basis of daily skin care, while evening cleansing removes all the impurities that have accumulated on the skin throughout the day.

Cleansing and evening skin care help todeeply regenerate the skin during the night, but we must never neglect the importance of our lifestyle. A poor diet, smoking and irregular sleep can alter the complexion and dull the skin.

So getting enough sleep, eating a balanced diet that includes plenty of fruit and vegetables, drinking enough water and avoiding sources of oxidation (tobacco, sun, etc.) are essential to our general well-being, and consequently to that of our skin.

OUR ADVICE:
Formed from a mixture of sebum, fatty acids and water, the hydrolipic film is a natural protective mantle that insulates the skin from potential external aggressors (UV, pollutants...). It acts like a shield. The balance of this precious film must be respected. Find out more about the hygiene products and water quality you use every day.
