May is a month of transition where we go from mild temperatures to higher temperatures. With these few variations, our skin can have a hard time keeping up and we have to adapt our skincare habits.
In a previous article, we showed you our spring beauty routine. Today, and in addition to this one, we bring you new skincare tips to best manage these temperature variations. For most of us, warmer days mean more sweating. It is around this subject and this problem that I am going to suggest that you create your routine today. What if we renamed this one: “the anti-perspiration routine!”. We are all concerned ! So let's go ;)
Why do we sweat?
Perspiration, also called sudation, is the evacuation of sweat. This is evacuated through the pores of our skin. Its primary role is to participate in our thermoregulation , thus reducing our body temperature. This phenomenon is therefore intended to prevent our body from overheating, for example during high temperatures and/or sports activities. We can also speak of sweating of emotional origin, when it is caused by stress.
Perspiration is made up of liquid, 99% water. It is also made up of minerals, antibodies, waste products and lactic acid. Its pH is acidic and is between 4 and 6.
To give you an idea, we have over two million sweat glands on the surface of our body, these participating in the production of sweat. It's the excretory duct of this gland which leads to our pores.
As you will have understood, sweating is therefore a natural and inevitable phenomenon for the proper functioning of our body. Excessive, however, it can become embarrassing for us and others... That's why we give you some tips to better understand it!
Stages 1 :
This is the essential of this routine! Our deodorant contains natural ingredients, effectively absorbing sweat, fighting bacteria that cause body odor and masking it.
This deodorant balm recipe can be poured into a stick, unmolded into a solid deodorant bar, or rubbed by hand under the armpits. We offer it unscented, but you can add your scent favorite!
It is perfectly suited for all skin types and is also suitable for heavy physical activity.
So you can spend your days this spring/summer without worrying about unpleasant surprises!
Stages 2:
For the comfort of your face, opt for a light cream and add a mattifying active. This active ingredient is the key to limiting unwanted shine, which appears during the day. Because it is a problem that we encounter recurrently during hot weather: the skin shines and this feeling can be unpleasant.
Our cream recipe contains only natural ingredients. By its fluid and light texture, you will not have the impression of having too much material on the face. In addition, the mattifying active ingredient allows the absorption of secretions emitted by the skin (sweat and sebum).
This cream is therefore essential to have a comfortable feeling on the face!
Stages 3 :
To bring a touch of freshness to your face or body, we strongly advise you to apply a flower hydrosol of your choice.
Used as a scent for our receipts, you can also apply it alone by spraying or lightly soak a cotton ball and tap it on your face. You can perform this gesture at any time of the day.
We recommend therose hydrosol with a delicate smell or the one with pepper mint for an immediate impression of freshness!
To learn more about our hydrolats, we invite you to read our post blog entirely dedicated to them!
And you, what are your favorite recipes for your routine this spring?
