In the morning: a good care for a beautiful makeup base

In the morning, before applying your makeup, it's crucial to prep and protect your skin so it's ready to face the day. Here are the essential steps for creating a beautiful makeup base.

A gentle cleansing to prepare your skin

For clean, well-prepared skin, start with gentle cleansing, a fundamental step in any beauty routine. This essential step prepares your skin for a good makeup base while preserving its natural balance.

For gentle cleansing in the morning , opt for the HYDRA+ Gentle Cleansing Gel which eliminates night sweats and prepares the skin for the skincare routine and makeup.

If your skin is combination to oily, choose AC CONTROL Purifying Cleansing Gel , enriched with glycerin to moisturize and zinc gluconate to regulate excess sebum. Your skin is soft, clean, and balanced all day long.

Apply a cream that moisturizes, protects and prepares for makeup

Once your skin is cleansed, apply a moisturizer suited to your skin type (see our tips for choosing the right day cream ) that hydrates and protects your skin from external aggressions. If you have dehydrated skin, opt for a moisturizer like HYDRA+ Radiance Moisturizing Serum.

Choose lightweight, non-comedogenic textures if you have blemish-prone skin. This will perfectly prepare your skin for makeup application, while also leaving it comfortable and radiant.

Massage to smooth and boost microcirculation

For even more effective skincare application, incorporate gentle massage movements when applying your cream. By massaging with light strokes or applying gentle pressure, you promote better absorption of your skincare products, stimulate microcirculation , and preserve your skin's natural radiance. Gently massaging the skin also helps smooth features and create a more even base for applying your makeup.

Your skin is now ready to receive your makeup, whether light or heavy.

In the evening: repair and comfort your skin

Evening is the perfect time to deeply repair and nourish your skin after a busy day. It's an opportunity to give your skin all the nutrients it needs to regenerate overnight . A good evening routine not only eliminates impurities that suffocate your skin, but also prepares for cell regeneration .

Remove makeup and cleanse without damaging

The first step in your routine is essential: remove your makeup and cleanse your skin . This will remove all traces of makeup and impurities accumulated throughout the day. Choose gentle products that are suited to your skin type:

For reactive skin, you will find CALM+ Soothing Micellar Water,
For sensitive, dehydrated or even dry skin, you will find HYDRA+ Gentle Cleansing Milk or HYDRA+ Gentle Cleansing Gel according to your preferences.
For combination to oily, acne-prone skin, you will find AC CONTROL Purifying Micellar Water or AC CONTROL Purifying Cleansing Gel

Apply a restorative care suited to your skin type

Once your skin is clean, all you have to do is prepare for cellular regeneration, the natural skin repair process that occurs while you sleep. Our skin repairs itself 8 times faster at night than during the day. Always choose a skincare product that meets your skin's specific needs:

Combination/oily skin : opt for AC CONTROL Anti-Imperfection Balancing Treatment , which balances sebum production and helps reduce the appearance of imperfections. Its formula enriched with Lysine dendrimer, an active ingredient that rebalances the C.Acnes bacteria responsible for imperfections and Roucou extract known to correct excess sebum, combined with hydrating and soothing active ingredients such as niacinamide and glycerin, your skin is hydrated all night long for a fresher complexion and a more balanced microbiome.

Reactive skin : To soothe discomfort, CALM+ Soothing Cream will be your best ally. Enriched with natural soothing and moisturizing active ingredients like allantoin and glycerin, combined with plum oil, which strengthens the skin's barrier function, it immediately calms feelings of overheating.

Dry skin : Choose the HYDRA+ Rich Radiance Cream, which intensely hydrates your skin thanks to glycerin that hydrates and prevents dryness and its polyglucoside complex that optimizes cell renewal and awakens the skin's radiance. If your skin needs a hydration boost, the HYDRA+ Flash Radiance Mask can be applied in the evening in a thin layer as a night mask. A combination of Erythritol that instantly boosts hydration and bio-active water (Betaine, Inositol and Taurine) that stimulates the skin's moisture flow and intensely hydrates over the long term.

Mature Skin : AH3 Global Anti-Aging Cream is ideal for mature skin looking for complete care. Its formula, composed of a trio of hyaluronic acids, works deep down to plump, smooth, and redensify the skin while you sleep.

Atopic skin : DA PROTECT Emollient Face Cream provides immediate relief for very dry and uncomfortable skin. Its formula, enriched with linseed oil, shea butter, and beeswax, intensely nourishes and rebuilds the weakened skin barrier.

Skin with dark spots : MELA Anti-Dark Spot Night Cream with Gentle Peeling is specially designed to work during sleep, when cells are renewing themselves.
