Spring Escape: The Essentials to pack in Your Beauty Bag

Your outdoor getaways are starting, but your skin is under stress? Time to protect and comfort it with your Les Huilettes travel kit

Spring escape: what to pack in your skincare travel bag

With the long weekends of May just around the corner, the urge to get away is stronger than ever—sea, countryside, city... Each destination promises its own set of discoveries, but also new challenges for your skin. Between exposure to the first rays of sun, increased pollution from travel, temperature changes, and the fast pace of activities, your skin can quickly become vulnerable. The result? Tightness, dehydration, dullness, irritations, and blemishes. It's essential to adopt a suitable routine to keep your skin glowing and protected.

Why is a weekend skincare kit essential?

May marks the return of sunshine and outdoor moments, but these conditions can put your skin to the test. Temperature changes—like cool mornings and hot afternoons—or direct sun exposure can disturb your skin's balance. Too much sun can accelerate skin aging, promote dark spots, and increase the risk of skin cancer.

Did you know sunlight has unsuspected benefits?

While the sun is often seen as a skin enemy, it also offers some surprising benefits. Moderate sun exposure stimulates vitamin D production, which plays a key role in cell regeneration and strengthening the skin's immune system. Sunlight also boosts blood circulation and gives your complexion a natural radiance.

Morning routine for glowing skin

With long weekends come more outdoor activities. Whether lounging in the sun or exploring new places, your skin deserves extra attention. Here are the key steps to protect your glow:

STEP 1: PREP YOUR SKIN

In the morning, start by spraying MIST all over your face. This botanical mist instantly hydrates while providing a refreshing sensation. With its floral scent of Melissa, Rose, and Geranium, it soothes your senses and protects your skin from dehydration and daily aggressors.

STEP 2: NOURISH & SHIELD

Next, apply SENSITIVE serum-in-oil to deeply nourish and strengthen your skin. Rich in Camellina, Pomegranate, and Sunflower oils, this formula calms and protects the skin against external stressors. With added Sea Buckthorn and Olive, it promotes cell renewal and radiance. Thanks to Beta Carotenes, your complexion looks luminous again.

STEP 3: HYDRATE INTENSELY

To relieve tightness from sun and wind exposure, apply the CREAM. Formulated with natural hyaluronic acid and shea butter, it offers intense hydration and immediate comfort—ideal for climate-exposed skin.

Pro tip: For an extra nourishing effect, mix a dab of CREAM with 1–2 drops of SENSITIVE serum before application.

FINAL STEP: PROTECT VULNERABLE AREAS

Before heading out, don’t forget your sunscreen and sunhat. UV rays are particularly strong this time of year. A high SPF 50+ organic sunscreen is a must to protect against UV damage and dehydration.

Evening routine after outdoor adventures

After a full day outdoors, it’s time to cleanse and rehydrate to restore your skin's balance and glow.

STEP 1: CLEANSE GENTLY

Start with CLEANSE, our 100% natural cleansing oil. It melts away sunscreen, impurities, and pollution without stripping your skin. With Coconut, Jojoba, and Oregano, it purifies while leaving skin soft and comfortable.

STEP 2: REPAIR

In the mountains or the city, dry air can disrupt your skin. Replenish and repair with SENSITIVE, the ideal serum for calming and deeply nourishing post-exposure skin. It revives suppleness and radiance overnight.

STEP 3: DEEP HYDRATION

Finish with CREAM to seal in moisture and create a soft protective cocoon. Your skin stays soothed, nourished, and radiant.

STEP 4: TARGETED RELIEF

For extra nourishment and repair on exposed zones, use RESCUE balm. Packed with Shea Butter and Coconut Oil, this multi-purpose balm intensely soothes, regenerates, and comforts your skin all day long.

Special tip for long weekends

Before your getaways, treat yourself to a moment of calm with a cup of VITALITÉ infusion. A blend of Rose, Melissa, and Hibiscus, it revitalizes the body, boosts your energy, and naturally brightens your complexion.
