Post-summer blemishes: meet routines that actually work
Upon back-to-school season, you are either part of the team who comes back from holidays with an overall summer glow and a photoshopped skin or be part of the unlucky whose skin faces a different reality. Uneven skin texture, blemishes and small inflammations… Discover our post-summer routine for spotless complexion.
Why do blemishes emerge after summer?
As days get longer, brighter, sunnier, the skin thickens to protect itself from summer effects : UV rays. Therefore the skin accumulates sebum and dead cells under its stratum corneum. Under this corneum, bacteria flourish and the skin has to produce even more sebum which creates inflammation… Once vacations are over and skin returns to its normal thickness, it’s time for blemishes and microcystins (the ones who impact the texture of your skin) to have a vacation of their own on your face. Adding the stress of getting back to work, and you’re in for a pimples ride…
