Best practices to make your summer glow last

Are you proud of that lovely tan that you patiently cultivated throughout the summer? Make it last! Of course, your tan is inevitably destined to disappear as the cells of your epidermis renew. That being said, there are (fortunately) some beauty tips to keep you looking good as fall approaches. The essential trio to apply with your eyes closed: exfoliate, hydrate, enhance. Here are our favorite “clean” treatments to have tanned skin, even at the start of the school year.

A scrub, to increase the intensity of your tan

What's more satisfying than a good exfoliation session? Practiced according to the rules of the art, it offers instant results on the softness of the skin and the radiance of the complexion. Only once it is free of its thin layer of dead cells can your skin reflect light to its maximum capacity. There's nothing like it to give a youthful boost to your summer tan!

Face side

Turn to a rich scrub to support your skin's natural repair process. Don't forget that she is still freshly battered by the sun: she probably yearns for more softness.

The good choice of the season: the Jojoba Pearls exfoliating cream from Odacité , with a cashmere skin effect for 30 seconds flat. Its exclusive exfoliating complex melts into a cream texture that refines, hydrates and refreshes the radiance of the complexion with the softness of a caress.

Don't like exfoliating grains or pearls? Treat yourself to a “tutti frutti” moment of well-being with the Miracle mask from Evolve beauty . Formulated with fruit acids and Peruvian maca, this marmalade-style peel brightens and revitalizes out-of-breath skin with a tropical scent.

Body side

Generously nourish your glow with Evolve's Tropical blossom body polish. Its base of exfoliating sugar crystals is bathed in a cocktail of sweet almond oil and Tahiti monoi to provide extreme comfort to skin lacking suppleness. When rinsed, it leaves the skin full of the scent of the islands, enveloped in a protective film which enhances its natural reflections.

An intensely moisturizing treatment, to satin your tan

Hydration helps keep skin looking fresh and radiant. It is even more important on tanned skin. It allows both to satin its copper color and to plump its surface, often dried out by UV rays. Moisturizer is not the only option! Mask, serum, oil: combine them to multiply the benefits of your post-tanning routine.

Face side

Combination to oily skin? After cleansing, spray a few pumps of La Canopée Mediterranean Flower Moisturizing Mist. It lightly hydrates and refreshes the skin. Follow with The Glow cream from This Place , enriched with organic CBD of Swiss origin and hyaluronic acid. It awakens tired complexions and prevents skin imperfections without leaving a greasy finish.

Normal to dry skin? Combine the Absolution Superfood Booster with the Beau Jour Cream to boost the radiance of your complexion. Designed to be combined on a daily basis, these two treatments offer optimal bioaffinity with the skin to revive it without weakening its ecosystem. For more radiance, add a few drops of a satin oil on top of your cream: Oryza Lab Beauty Oil.

Body side

If you haven't already done so, adopt the Holi(wash) + Body(balm) duo from Agent Nateur now. The first is an anti-aging shower gel, with an exfoliating and delicately nourishing action, which infuses the skin with comfort and radiance during the cleansing phase. The second is a bomb of sensuality with patented active ingredients, equipped with a balm-in-serum texture which fills the skin with light with a satin finish.

Makeup, to highlight your summer glow

When the facial tan fades, there is always makeup to recreate the illusion of a vacation tan. It's time to take out the bronzer powders, champions of a healthy glow! Don't hesitate to complete your look with a highlighter to accentuate the contrasts. You can also add a pretty apricot or coral blush to highlight your tanned cheekbones.

Rest assured: “healthy glow” does not necessarily mean “disco ball”. For a warm, natural look, you need to find the right balance between matte products and subtly iridescent finishes. Ilia Beauty's NightLite bronzer has the merit of combining the dullness of velvet and the discreet shine of mother-of-pearl. Its fine texture warms the complexion with an almost imperceptible silky finish.

Your touch of radiance: the Ilia Illuminator, practical thanks to its stick format. Ideally, choose it in the Cosmic Dancer shade: a warm gold just what you need to enhance your return from the beach look. Apply it to the tip of the nose, the top of the cheekbones and all the protruding parts of the face (bridge of the nose, temples, cupid's bow) to bring out your natural tan.

Your touch of color: the essential Lip2Cheek from RMS in Smile shade (a modern, supercharged coral), a safe bet for all skin tones. Place on the rounded part of your cheeks and even on your lips for a complexion bursting with life, coupled with a delicious glow.
