7 TIPS FOR HEALTHY, FLAWLESS SKIN

Who doesn't dream of a flawlessly even, radiant complexion? But for that, you would have to be a top model or a movie star... wrong! It is a widespread misconception that skin problems are primarily genetic and that we, therefore, have no influence on them. Only 20 percent of skin problems are genetic, and 80 percent are caused by lifestyle and environmental factors.

1. SLEEP ENOUGH

At night, the skin recovers from the stresses of the day, because most of the cell renewal takes place during sleep. If this process cannot take place properly, the moisture content drops and visible signs of aging such as lines, wrinkles and sallowness can appear. During the night, the level of the stress hormone cortisol also decreases, giving the skin time to replenish its moisture stores and regenerate.

2. PROTECT YOUR SKIN FROM THE SUN EVERY DAY

Dermatologists and beauty editors never tire of warning about harmful solar radiation and for good reason. After all, it is the main cause of premature skin aging. A day cream with a sun protection factor offers sufficient protection for shorter stays outdoors, but a special sun cream is advised for longer outdoor activities. For everyday use, Blue Therapy Multi-Defender SPF 25 offers comprehensive sun protection against UVA and UVB radiation in a lightweight gel that spreads easily on the skin and is absorbed quickly without leaving a greasy film.

3. BE GENTLE WITH YOUR SKIN

Aggressive exfoliants and soap-based cleansers can damage the skin's surface on the one hand and compromise the moisture barrier on the other. We recommend replacing such products with milder formulations that hydrate, nourish and protect the skin. Also, do not be too rough when removing makeup or massaging the face. Glide your hands over your skin gently and with little pressure.

4. USE AN ANTIOXIDANT ESSENCE

Facial essences are the next generation of skincare. Their highly concentrated ingredients penetrate deep into the epidermis, where they can develop their effect optimally. Biotherm's Life Plankton™ Essence contains Life Plankton™ in the highest concentration (5%). Its 35 indispensable nutrients, vitamins, carbohydrates and trace elements regenerate the skin and preserve its functionality. With daily use, Life Plankton™ Essence contributes to a more radiant complexion, the reduction of blemishes, a more even complexion and skin resilience.

5. PAMPER YOUR SKIN WITH A MASK

6. ALWAYS REMOVE YOUR MAKEUP

A thorough, effective cleansing ritual is the best remedy for clogged pores, uneven skin texture, redness and general skin irritation. Cleansing the skin of impurities before going to bed is especially important, as it regenerates and forms new cells overnight. The Biosource Total Renew Oil by Biotherm cleanses the skin twice in one simple step. The silky oil first gently removes makeup and sunscreen. On contact with water, it then foams up and removes even the smallest particles of dirt and fine dust.

7. USE PRODUCTS FOR YOUR SKIN TYPE

This should go without saying, but you wouldn't believe how often this advice is ignored. When it comes to skincare, there is no one-size-fits-all solution and products are formulated for specific skin types for a reason. For example, a cream for dry skin would be too rich for oily skin types, causing pores to clog. Conversely, mattifying products can exacerbate the condition of dry skin and damage the moisture barrier.
