In spring, I wake up my skin and prepare it for summer by promoting lymphatic drainage, purification and skin breathing.
These are 3 essential steps you shouldn't neglect in your skin care routine to keep your skin healthy, smoother, suppler and healthier.
It will then be better able to resist environmental variations, UV rays, stress and disorders of all kinds.
In spring, our bodies are on the alert, adapting to changes in the cycle, and our skin can be more sensitive (especially as the return of pollen and fine particles doesn't really help!
really help!)
At this time of year, it's not uncommon to see the return of certain skin conditions and chronic inflammations such as acne, urticaria, eczema...
To give your skin all the resources it needs and support cellular processes, I invite you to take good care of your skin!
FOCUS ON LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
WHAT IS THE LYMPHATIC SYSTEM?
Lymph is a transparent liquid (like the one found in blisters when you burn yourself) which is found in a network secondary to the blood system and circulates throughout our body.
Like the digestive, nervous and respiratory systems, the lymphatic system performs functions essential to our good health, and is linked to certain organs and lymph nodes (spleen, thymus, tonsils, lymph nodes...).
Among other things, it frees the body from the waste products, bacteria and dead cells that can accumulate there, and also plays a very important role in immunity (it enables the circulation of white blood cells, the true “guardians” of our immunity), hormonal circulation and the maintenance of blood pressure.
Poor lymphatic drainage can therefore have multiple repercussions on the body, amplifying problems such as edema, heavy legs, cellulite, venous problems, skin imperfections...
It therefore makes sense to support the lymphatic system to help it do its job properly.
HOW TO PERFORM LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE AS PART OF YOUR SKIN CARE ROUTINE?
Lymphatic drainage takes the form of very gentle massages to maximize the effects of your skincare treatments by boosting the diffusion of active ingredients, as well as promoting the circulation of fluids throughout the body (and even the face!).
Simply take advantage of your skin care rituals to perform a body and face massage.
You can use techniques such as facial sculpting to perfect this moment of well-being and self-care. Some of our accessories can also help you acquire these good practices: sodalite gua-sha or rock crystal and aventurine mushroom are
perfect for the face!
They help stimulate the lymphatic network and prevent swelling (such as bags under the eyes), while stimulating microcirculation to revive radiance. Your complexion is visibly fresher and smoother, and you're perfectly relaxed!
For the body, opt for the anti-cellulite brush (it visibly improves skin texture!) or the loofah glove before using a moisturizer.
SKIN PURIFICATION AND OXYGENATION
Cleansing the skin is an essential part of your daily hygiene, and one of the basic habits for clean, healthy skin that's ready to receive additional care.
Cleansed of the impurities that clog pores, the skin barrier can fully play its protective role and adapt more easily to external aggressions.
At the start and end of the day, it's a step not to be neglected, to remove dead cells, dust and any microbes that may have remained on the surface...
In the morning and evening, Oceau Marine recommends removing make-up and cleansing the skin with Rose Cleanser rinse-off cream.
Its natural active ingredients (seawater, Damask rose and hibiscus) are invaluable for deep cleansing, tightening pores, limiting inflammation and activating cell repair.
By purifying your skin, you also improve cellular oxygenation: “skin respiration” is activated and toxins are more easily evacuated.
SKIN HYDRATION
Whatever the nature of your skin (normal, dry, oily or combination), daily moisturizing is essential.
You regulate it every day from the inside by drinking enough water (the amount to be adapted according to your age and specific needs) and from the outside by using moisturizing products that respect your skin's sensitivity.
Oceau Marine's seawater-based skin care products are particularly nourishing and revitalizing, accompanying you in your daily routines to deeply moisturize and revitalize your skin.
Rich in minerals and trace elements of marine origin, our products are real hydration boosters.
As isotonic seawater is perfectly tolerated and assimilated, it can be used on all skin types, even the most fragile! It would be a shame to go without it...
