Why Should I Take Care of My Skin?

Healthy skin needs a healthy skincare routine. Learn how to keep your skin looking and feeling its best with the daily Vie de Mer Paris skincare routine.

Why should I take care of my skin?

Every day your skin is exposed to dirt, sweat, dust and air pollution. So, washing your skin twice daily is a must. However, cleansing your skin twice a day can remove protective oils from the skin surface and leave the skin feeling tight. After cleansing, it is crucial to apply a correct skincare routine that will help comfort the skin and replace the protective oils known as lipids.

How can I care for the skin on my face?

Wash your face with lukewarm water rather than hot water. Exposing the skin to hot water can cause dryness and dehydration. Use a face cleanser instead of soap. Soap’s harsh detergent properties not only remove dirt, but can also strip the skin of its protective layer of lipids. Vie de Mer Oxygen cleanser is non detergent cleanser , it will clean your face without stripping it. Apply products in the right order.

After cleansing, Vie de Mer Paris recommends following a three-step routine in the morning and evening:

1. Start with your serums because they are water-based. Vie de Mer Hyaluronic Acid Serum should always be the first serum as it uses micro-water technology to soothe, revitalize and deeply hydrate the skin. Applying this serum directly after cleansing prepares the skin for the next steps in your skincare routine. You can also layer other serums after Hyaluronic Acid Serum.
2. Use an oil-based product to protect and replenish the skin. Applying a lightweight face oil helps to balance the skin’s oil production. Vie de Mer recommends face oils for both dry and oily skin types. You will not break out as the Vie de Mer face oils have over 20 plant and essential oils to nourish and repair the skin, helping it keep moisture in–not oily.
3. Use a moisturizing cream to coat the skin in a comfortable protective layer.

In summary, after cleansing and toning, hydrate with a serum, nourish with an oil and protect with a moisturizer.

How to apply: Always pat serums, massage oils and moisturizer into the skin
to help energize and improve your skin's blood circulation.

When to apply eye cream: Use an eye cream before moisturizing around the eye skin is thinner than on the rest of the face, and requires a different kind of moisturizer. Use Vie de Mer Eye serum and eye cream for elasticity, smooth lines and wrinkles and minimize dark circles.
