The importance of masks during summertime

At-home masks are the secret to speeding up the process of improving a specific problem: lack of moisture, lack of lipids for purification, plumping wrinkles, toning, tightening pores, soothing the skin and reducing redness or regulating excess sebum, etc.

Each mask has a specific property and can be applied in a personalized way according to the areas to be treated.

For example, a combination skin type could use the live mask on the median area, where there is a lot of sebaceous secretion and an accumulation of blackheads, and the visolastine + mask, essential for rehydration, on the rest of the face, neck and décolleté.??

Before using the mask, it's essential to cleanse the skin thoroughly with a cleansing milk, then apply a gentle exfoliating agent such as P50 lotion to optimize penetration of the mask's active ingredients. This is why we recommend that you apply your mask in the evening during the summer months.?

In summer, it's very important to clean the skin twice in the evening to remove the particles that SPF creams can leave on the skin's surface. The new Lait dermo S from Biologique Recherche is ideal for this summer period, as it contains the soothing agents needed after exposure to the sun.

Also, in summer, we perspire more due to the heat, so hydration levels are lower, and we need to counter this by using a moisturizing mask for seborrheic skin or a relipidant mask for dry skin. The must-have from Biologique Recherche, suitable for all but acne-prone skin, is the Vernix cream mask, which has regenerating, repairing, and moisturizing properties, and restores the lipid barrier. Use as a night cream without rinsing 1 to 2 times a week.?

There's no limit to the frequency with which you can use masks in summer to counter the damaging effects of UV exposure, but we recommend at least 2 to 3x/week, as opposed to at least 1x/week the rest of the year!?
