Give your skin the glow and radiance it deserves for the holidays

Light, radiance, and glow, even in the heart of winter

Looking for a complexion as radiant as the festive lights adorning the streets in December? The holiday season is just around the corner, bringing with it the desire for luminous skin that captures the light. Yet, winter often takes its toll, leaving skin looking dull. Fortunately, a few simple steps and the right products are all you need to unveil a glowing complexion. Follow our guide to give your skin the radiance it truly deserves!

Understanding your skin's needs

In winter, skin often faces harsh conditions. The cold outside, combined with dry indoor heating, can weaken the skin barrier and lead to dehydration. Add to this the stress of holiday preparations, lack of sleep, and indulgent meals, and you have the perfect recipe for a dull complexion!

But don’t worry: with the right routine and carefully selected products, you can not only protect your skin but also restore its radiance and vitality.

Glow Routine: The Night Before, the Big Day, and the Day After

A long-term glow routine

Before diving into the Les Huilettes routine to adopt before the celebrations, let’s take a quick look at other ways to achieve radiant skin in time for the holidays.

Hydration, Sleep, and Vitamins

First and foremost, it can’t be said enough: drink water! Staying hydrated is essential for healthy skin and a glowing complexion!

To do this, drinking water or herbal teas is ideal for detoxifying the body and awakening your skin’s natural radiance. Why not try the "Beautiful Skin" infusion with natural aromas of Fennel, Cardamom, Verbena, and more? Drinking is a simple, relaxing ritual that benefits your skin, helping you glow naturally!

Next, get enough sleep and eat healthily! Yes, lack of sleep and an unbalanced diet are both factors that contribute to dull skin. A regular sleep routine (7-8 hours per night) allows the skin to regenerate, and a healthy diet helps maintain a luminous complexion. Especially before the holidays, opt for colorful and vitamin-rich meals!

Yoga and Facial Exercise

For well-being, we recommend self-massage, which helps release tension and stimulates microcirculation, improving the skin’s oxygenation and enhancing its natural radiance. You can use your fingers or a Gua Sha tool for this.

Finally, let’s not forget that stress plays a major role in the appearance of dull skin. A few minutes of deep breathing or yoga can help stimulate circulation and oxygenate the cells.

1. The night before the celebration: prepare and nourish your skin

To reveal a glowing complexion, it’s essential to properly prepare your skin the night before!

And for that, we have exactly what you need: our exfoliating SCRUB!

Scrub is a 100% natural exfoliator ideal for the body, but it can also be used on the face. It helps remove impurities and dead skin cells that dull the complexion, thanks to cane sugar. It provides an effective yet gentle exfoliation, leaving a soft, protective layer on the skin.

Your skin will then be detoxified and receive a boost of radiance from Oregano. It will also be nourished and protected thanks to Coconut and Roman Chamomile.

Exfoliate gently

To use SCRUB on your face, apply it to damp skin for a gentle exfoliation.

Upon contact with water, the balm emulsifies. Gently massage and then rinse with lukewarm water

Its unique fragrance of Green Mandarin, Chamomile, and Lavender provides relaxation and well-being, offering the promise of a spa experience at home.

Next, let's move on to moisturizing your skin, and for that, use our universal emulsion CREAM!

Moisturize generously

To hydrate your skin, CREAM is the perfect ally. It contains natural hyaluronic acid with powerful moisturizing properties.

We’ve optimized its formula to create a 100% active cream. We replaced water with Barley Sprout Water, which is rich in micronutrients, vitamins, and minerals. We selected Pomegranate, Plum, and Sunflower plant oils for their antioxidant and protective properties, and Calendula, a natural source of retinol, for its smoothing benefits. Finally, Shea Butter adds nourishment!

With its smooth, non-greasy texture that allows for quick absorption, our universal emulsion can be used both morning and evening.

Apply a small amount to the entire face and neck on clean, dry skin.

You can also choose to combine CREAM with the serum of your choice to enhance immediate hydration.

2. The big day: enhance with Day and Mask

On the day of the event, the goal is to reveal a radiant complexion and ensure perfect makeup longevity.

Step 1: Cleanse and prep your skin

You can start with a gentle cleanse using the extra-gentle soap!

Gentle and hydrating, it cleanses while respecting the most delicate and sensitive skin.

It is formulated with plant oils of Olive, Coconut, Castor, Sunflower, and Shea butter, known for their nourishing, protective, and regenerating properties.

On damp skin, lather the soap and gently massage.

Rinse off, and the result: perfectly clean and soft skin!

Step 2: A boost of radiance with MASK

For an instant "wow" effect, apply MASK. With its unique formula, 100% natural in origin, it helps you get rid of all impurities. This purifying and detoxifying mask rebalances the skin's microbiome with the Prebiotic from Chicory, while tightening the pores. Additionally, it reduces imperfections thanks to Zinc Salt!

You may be wondering where its green color comes from? Well, it’s thanks to the chlorophyll in the formula! It’s invigorating and has protective properties.

Apply a thin layer of the mask on clean skin, then leave it on for 5 to 10 minutes. Massage and rinse with clear water. The mask transforms into a milk, leaving the skin soft and smooth.

In just a few minutes, you’ll have purified skin thanks to the essential oils of Peppermint and Tea Tree, and your skin will be glowing, ready to capture the light!
