Summer is a magical season: the sun feels wonderful on our faces, our mood gets a positive boost and we want nothing more than to be one with nature. With the switch to warmer temperatures, it's an excellent time to take your skincare to the next level. With some small tweaks and additions to your daily routine, you'll help keep your skin looking its best.
1. Too much sun is no fun
Even if you protect your skin sufficiently against bright sunlight, it can still go seriously wrong every now and then. This is where Himalaya 29°N-81°E, our universal first aid balm comes to the rescue! Apply a layer of the balm to the burned, red spots. This will provide an instant soothing effect.
For a burnt nose and cheeks, the Kissed by a Rose serum is a match made in heaven. Mix a few drops of the serum with your day and night cream for extra care and repair after prolonged exposure to UV light.
2. Sun's out, legs out
A good start is half the battle. By properly exfoliating your skin before going out into the sun, you can enjoy your sun-kissed look much longer. With only two CÎME products you can make your own scrub at home.
Step 1:
Take a handful of the Magnificent Mandarine body scrub and add a few drops of l'Huile by CÎME.
Step 2:
Gently massage onto the skin in circular motions.
Step 3:
Rinse. You can also finish with a moisturizer such as the Green Tea Therapy body lotion for extra moisture.
3. Skinimalism is hot
Dry lips, eyebrows out of control or forgot to apply your highlighter?
Le Baume by CÎME, with its soft chamomile scent, is your new best friend for a natural, dewy look. This balm not only nourishes but also repairs and protects the dry or irritated spots on your skin.
In addition, you can also use this multipurpose balm for an extra glowy touch on your cheekbones, to shape your eyebrows or to repair chapped lips. An all-in-one saviour that easily fits in your bag for a quick fix on the go.
4. Full body skincare this summer
After a pandemic, it is impossible to imagine our handbag without a disinfecting alcohol gel. Even if we use it more often, must of us still do. And all that alcohol, washing and rubbing can make your hands very dry.
Despite the hands being the body part that ages quickly without nourishing care, they are the most forgotten part of a skincare routine. A shame, but not for long anymore!
Our For Your Hands Only hand cream is compact, absorbs quickly and protects your skin from harmful external influences. Moreover, the hand cream immerses you in a delicious and subtle summer scent of apricot kernels.
5. Relieving sheet masks
Whether you use it for a fancy mini facial at home, to repair the damage of the sun/airco or just for that summer party where you want to look your best. Sheet masks & roses are a treat for your skin!
Step 1:
Spray some refreshing Rosée de Roses on a tissue and make an opening at the level of your nose.
Step 2:
Place the tissue on your face and enjoy 15 minutes of pure indulgence.
Step 3:
Remove the tissue and moisturize your skin with your favorite CÎME day and night cream.
6. The perfect summer cocktail for your body
Excessive summer heat can dehydrate your skin, so it’s important to keep it moisturized during the summer. Summer also means more time in air-conditioned environments. Artificially cooled rooms have dehumidified air, which dries your skin.
Green Tea Therapy, our firming body lotion, provides the perfect summer cocktail to keep your entire body moisturized. The unique blend of green tea, curcuma and chiuri butter will deeply nourish and restore your skin’s elasticity. These powerful ingredients in the formula prevent the breakdown of collagen and protects the skin from the damaging effect of free radicals, keeping your skin youthful and soft.
