Moisturizer

The choice of the facial cream depends primarily on skin type (nourishing for dry skin, lightweight for oily skin, soothing for sensitive skin...), even though other factors are also taken into account (ingredients, texture, seasonality...).

For optimal skin hydration and protection, it is recommended to apply your daily moisturizing cream, morning and evening.

According to skin type classifications, it is not strictly necessary to change your facial moisturizer each season. However, it can be beneficial to choose a richer cream in winter and a lighter formula in summer.

Heavy or so-called comedogenic creams can sometimes clog pores and cause blemishes, especially on skin prone to imperfections. Therefore, it is crucial to choose a facial cream suited to your skin type.

It is recommended to use products specifically formulated for the face because the skin in that area is thinner and more sensitive.

It is recommended to apply your body cream immediately after showering, on still slightly damp skin, gently massaging until completely absorbed.

For dry skin, it is recommended to use a body cream rich in oils and plant butters—such as shea butter or avocado oil—and occlusive agents to effectively retain hydration.

The moisturizing cream is generally used after cleansing and, when applicable, after applying a serum. Applied to slightly damp skin, it helps to retain water in the epidermis more effectively. In the morning, it should be followed by sun protection.

Adequate hydration helps to plump the stratum corneum, which can mitigate the appearance of dehydration-induced fine lines. This effect is primarily due to increased water content and skin smoothing.
