How do you get smooth skin?
Over the years, the production of collagen and elastin decreases, making the skin thinner and less resistant to external aggressors. Fortunately, good habits and facial skincare can help to keep your skin smooth and your face glowing.
Follow each of the essential steps in a facial care routine to get smooth skin:
- Makeup removal and/or facial cleansing to remove impurities.
- Exfoliation or peeling treatment. By removing dead skin twice a week, you’ll improve the skin's texture and make it smooth and silky.
- Hydrating and smoothing treatments adapted to your needs (anti-wrinkle serum, eye contour treatment, smoothing cream, firming cream, etc.)
In terms of skin care, opt for smoothing creams and anti-ageing treatments containing vitamins A and E and hyaluronic acid to illuminate the complexion and smooth skin texture.
Another essential beauty step is to prevent photoageing through moderate sun exposure and effective sun protection.
Finally, for women looking for perfectly smooth skin, treat yourself to a few touches of . Choose a fluid foundation, such as Couvrance Fluid Foundation Correctors, which will not accentuate fine lines. You can also brighten and even out your skin tone with a 3-in-1 skincare product, such as a tinted cream, which will keep your skin hydrated. Finally, if you need to, restore colour to dull skin with our Sun and Healthy Glow Mosaic Powders.
How do you apply a smoothing cream?
Applying a smoothing cream is the third step in your skincare routine, after cleansing and exfoliating.
Before applying the cream, to enhance the benefits of the smoothing base and improve your complexion’s radiance, you can spray a fine mist of our Thermal Spring Water Spray all over your face. Gently massage in small circular movements to soften the skin. And dry the excess water by dabbing with a towel.
Smoothing day cream
In the morning, opt for a winning duo with hydrating and protective formulas: serum and smoothing cream.
If you have uneven skin texture, choose A-Oxitive Day Smoothing Water-Cream for a glowing, radiant result without compromising on comfort. If you prefer face cream with an immediate firming effect, the Physiolift Day Smoothing Cream smooths out established wrinkles and firms dry skin thanks to hyaluronic acid. For normal to combination skin, our laboratories have developed a lighter texture: Physiolift Day Smoothing Emulsion. Finally, the Physiolift Protect Smoothing Protective Cream SPF 30 provides high protection against the sun's UV rays in addition to these smoothing ingredients.
Apply these smoothing creams in two steps. First, gently rub the smoothing cream into your skin. Then use the palms of both hands to apply pressure to your face, from the neck to the temples, like suction cups. Your skin will then look toned and radiant.
Smoothing night cream
At night, your skin is protected from external aggressors: take advantage of your sleep to regenerate and pamper it!
A-Oxitive Day Smoothing Water-Cream is also very suitable for the evening routine of women over thirty. It helps to correct frown lines and loss of elasticity while you sleep. An alternative is the A-Oxitive Night Peeling Cream to refine the skin texture, reduce unevenness and detoxify the skin barrier.
For women with more pronounced wrinkles the Physiolift Night Balm firms the skin, reduces wrinkles and relaxes the features.
Your evening beauty routine is also an opportunity to take care of the fragile eye area with a soothing eye contour cream. From the A-Oxitive range, there’s A-Oxitive EYES Soothing Eye Contour Cream. This helps you to wake up with fresh, bright eyes. From the Physiolift range, Physiolift EYES Wrinkles, Puffiness, Dark Circles smooths the skin around the eyes and fills in wrinkles.
Just a dab of one of these localised soothing creams is enough. Tap it lightly with your fingertips around your eyes, concentrating on the crow's feet.
