Cleansing, moisturizing, sun protection… Learn how to build an effective skincare routine suited to your skin type.

Beautiful skin doesn't happen by chance: it's the result of a daily routine tailored to your needs. Whether your skin is dry, combination, oily or sensitive, these fundamental steps apply to everyone.

1. Cleansing: the foundation of everything

Cleansing morning and night is essential to remove impurities, excess sebum and makeup residue. Choose a gentle soap-free cleansing gel or a cleansing milk depending on your skin type.

2. Exfoliation (once or twice a week)

Exfoliation removes dead cells and unclogs pores. Choose a gentle enzyme peel if your skin is sensitive, or a light physical scrub for normal to oily skin.

3. Serum: a concentrate of active care

Serum is the booster step of your routine. Vitamin C in the morning for radiance, hyaluronic acid for intense hydration, retinol at night to fight signs of aging.

4. Moisturizer

Whatever your skin type, hydration is non-negotiable. Choose a light texture for combination to oily skin, and a rich texture for dry skin.

5. Sun protection (SPF 30 minimum)

The sun is responsible for 80% of skin aging. Apply your SPF every morning, even on cloudy days or in winter.
