Sunscreen as day care

Morning ritual

After waking up in the morning and cleansing your skin with a lotion or cleansing gel and a suitable toner, you can apply a serum. A serum contains a high concentration of active ingredients, for example, to strengthen the walls of red capillaries or to prevent the formation of pigment spots that you just removed last winter. Or, for sun worshippers, the brand-new Global Ultra-Repairing Anti-Aging Serum. This serum effectively combats all factors that aggravate wrinkles (free radicals, environmental and harsh weather, UV rays, lifestyle, irritation processes, and age). After applying your serum, apply a day cream.

Did you know that instead of your day cream, you can also use a BB cream, a tinted sunscreen with an SPF 30 from Lakshmi Hydrasun spray. It's thin and absorbs quickly.
Especially for oily or sensitive skin, you can choose to use a product with SPF that hydrates without making the skin greasy immediately after your serum. People with oily skin don't want to trigger inflammation or experience an excessive oily sheen.

Women who are in menopause and suffer from hot flashes or people who take certain medications often prefer to use the thinnest possible product.

Evening ritual

In the evening, you can apply your usual skin care or, after sunbathing, a soothing and refreshing after-sun.

Advice on sunbathing

  • Make sure your skin gets used to the sun gradually and use a broad-spectrum product.
  • Apply sunscreen generously before going out in the sun.
  • Reapply frequently, especially after perspiring and swimming.
  • A tanned skin also needs protection and nourishment.
  • Avoid the hottest hours of 11:30am-4:30pm and don't stay in the sun for too long.
  • Protect babies and children: apply plenty of sunscreen, dress appropriately, and keep them out of the sun.
  • Apply a very high factor sunscreen to moles, scars and sensitive areas.
  • Sand, snow, and water reflect sunlight. Be careful!
  • Apply plenty of sunscreen when exercising outdoors. Prevent heatstroke.
  • Drink enough water!
  • Soothe and hydrate your skin with an aftersun

Take extra care when using medications (including antibiotics and anti-inflammatories), perfume, deodorant, or hairspray. These can increase sun sensitivity and cause a rash or sunburn.

Eat plenty of red and yellow fruits and vegetables, such as carrots, tomatoes, cherries, and apricots. These are rich in vitamin A.

Use the right amount of sun protection factor and treat your skin to a moisturizing and soothing after-sun.

Ritual for an intense and long-lasting tan

It's best to pre-treat your skin three weeks before sunbathing or a vacation, at least once a week. This will improve your skin's response to sun exposure.


Cleanse your skin at least 3 times a week with a peeling

Use a different type of exfoliator for your body than for your face. For your body, you need an exfoliator that removes dead skin cells and simultaneously has a slimming, draining, and firming effect. For example, the wonderfully scented Draining Anti-Cellulite Thalasso Scrub. For your face, I recommend my personal favorite exfoliators that feel and smell wonderful and also have a sublime anti-aging effect: La Colline Cellular Exfoliator and Cellular Modeling Bio-Peel.

For those who want to prepare their skin for the sun

And for those who want to tan faster, you can use products with tanning activators and enhancers. Applying a suitable body cream or oil is essential!

If you don't apply sunscreen, your skin will eventually dry out and the connective tissue will crack, making it nearly impossible to repair. Perhaps only with the right products if you're young.

Your body's skin, just like your face, is made up of layers that need to be kept filled with hyaluronic acid, among other things. I always call it "your mattress." If your mattress sinks, you're no longer comfortable, and the same thing happens to your skin. This causes the support pillars in your skin to disappear, so to speak, and the melanocytes are more likely to develop pigment spots. Consequently, the elastic and collagen fibers also deteriorate, and your skin loses its firmness and youthful appearance.

The sun is only an enemy if you don't take protective measures.

The sun protection products of the brands sold by Cosmeticabestellen.nl comply with the recommendations of the European Commission.
