We know that planning a vacation takes time and energy, and that we can become stressed about forgetting something. Between packing and setting up excursions, we sometimes tend to forget about an important thing: our skin care routine. To make your lives easier, and to make sure you look your absolute best, we created a guided routine to help with the skin care part of your getaway. Easy to follow, here are the simple steps required to ensure a healthy and glowing skin throughout your vacation. 

Before Leaving

Exfoliation

It is important to prep your skin before sun bathing. This is where the Tan extender Scrub comes in handy. To ensure an even tan and hydrated skin, removing dead skin cells and unclogging your pores is the first crucial step. By exfoliating your skin first, you extend the duration of the tan, and once the tan fades, you will not be left with any signs of patchiness. The Tan Extender Scrub is enriched with coconut shell powder, arginine and olive oil which allows a gentle cleanse all the while making sure your skin does not dry out. 

Hydration

The next crucial step once your skin is clean and exfoliated is to moisturize! You will be exposed to the sun for long periods of time (lucky you!) which makes hydration key to extend the duration of your tan and ensure a unified tan. We recommend opting for the Hydra Care Moisturizing Body Milk to deeply hydrate your skin. Its formula is enriched with almond oil, active waters of myrtle, and red grape for their nourishing and softening properties. This treatment features Barrier Drone technology that increases tissue density and resistance for incredibly silky, flexible skin. So, yes, you are hydrated your skin, but you are also giving it a little extra care.

Self-Tanner

The next skin care step before a vacation under the sun is applying your self-tanner. Its seems odd, but let us put it this way: we have the tendency to sun bathe for way too long on our first days on the beach because our skin tends to be paler at the start of the vacation. By applying your self-tanner before, you eliminate the need to tan faster under the skin-damaging sun rays. We recommend applying the On The Go self-tanner spray accompanied by the Glam Body self-tanning mousse in the shade of your choice. These two products will not prevent you from tanning under the sun, they will simply hold you back from prolonging your exposure to UV rays (and maybe give you more time to check out the bar ! win-win if you ask us)

At Your Destination

Now that you have arrived at your destination, you are still not quite done with your skin care. It is very important to remember to hydrate your skin atleast once a day and to apply sunscreen every two hours. We have some products in mind that could really ellevate your sun care routine.
