Taking care of yourself: let's start with the skin! Tips and evergreens to follow
Our days are dotted with races: we run after the requests of our boss, the commitments with friends and relatives and the bus that always arrives a minute earlier than you predicted.
This comings and goings leave us tired and with very little time to dedicate to us… and this is a mistake! Learning to carve out time, to take care of our body and mind is the only way to avoid another race: to escape from nervous breakdowns!
Why, though, to take care of yourself you have to start with skin care and, in particular, with facial skin care?
Simple: our face is the first thing we ourselves and others look at.
When we wake up and drag ourselves to the bathroom, when we introduce ourselves to someone, when we take a selfie: our face is always in the spotlight.
This is why it is important to start with facial skin care: the first thing we see, every morning, and the one we see most often during the day, must be clean, well-groomed, smooth and free of blemishes.
Discover the 5 tips to take care of yourself, starting with the care of your face!

As soon as you wake up, stretch the skin of your face with your hands: do not use any cream, simply use your fingertips to massage your cheeks, forehead, eye contour and lips. Two minutes will be enough: do it every day and you will see the skin on your face more relaxed in no time.
#2. Taking care of yourself rhymes with gommage!
© iStockOur goal is to dedicate time to ourselves and, at the same time, to make the skin of our face supple, hydrated and spotless. The signs of time will come, but we want to delay them as much as possible. Like? With gommage, the exfoliation that, done once a week, will help you fight the appearance of the first wrinkles. You can buy a natural exfoliant, or do it yourself: combine sugar or coarse salt with coconut oil and pass the mixture on your face, or watch the video tutorial!
# 3. You may have heard this before, but the cream is (really) important. Here because!
© BiothermWe know that it is an evergreen and that you have already heard it, but we cannot fail to remind you: putting on cream every day is really important for the skin of our face.
Here, however, is something you did not know: recent research has found that 80% of aging is caused by exposure to the open air, while only 20% by biological aging. Long UVA rays and pollution are responsible for these epidermal biological damage.
This only means one thing. Don't want your skin to age prematurely? Then you have to protect her every time you leave the house.
If you don't want to rush from one perfumery to another to find the right cream, you can sign up for our Proven by You and try the new Biotherm cream, Blue Therapy Multi-Defender SPF25.
Here's why we like it:
- It is light on the skin and does not weigh it down
- Despite its lightness, it forms a protective screen that protects our face from the action of UVB, UVA and pollution
- Its composition has been specially designed to allow the skin to regenerate naturally, once repaired from damage from the open air
Anti-pollution, anti-oxidant and able to correct or prevent wrinkles, dark spots: it is never too late to take care of your skin, and with the Proven by You and Blue Therapy you can start now!
# 4. Grandma's beauty tips: tea and potatoes after heavy nights
© iStockDid you have a sleepless night and, this morning, were you afraid of your image in the mirror? Don't worry: thanks to these beauty tips from grandma, you can leave the house without being afraid to scare anyone!
If you have swollen and irritated eyes, just dip two tea bags in boiling water: before applying them on the eyelids, leave them in the freezer for 2-3 minutes!
If, on the other hand, you woke up with two dark circles under your eyes, use the potato trick: cut it in half, raw, and put it for a while on the black circles. In 10 minutes, the panda effect will be gone!
# 5.Tell me what you eat and I'll tell you what skin you have (and what to remove from the fridge)
© iStockWe are of the idea that we can and should eat everything: it is the privations that make us unhappy and dissatisfied. We also believe that, once a month, a healthy detox helps our body to purify itself and our skin to shine.
That's why we advise you, for a whole week, to eliminate fried, fatty and messy foods, to prefer them instead:
- Fruits and vegetables with yellow, dark green or red pigmentation: rich in vitamin A which favors the maintenance of the epidermis
- Green tea, for its antioxidants
- Brazil nuts, sardines, beef, wholemeal pasta and mushrooms because they contain selenium, a mineral that helps protect cells from free radicals and also helps prevent skin cancer
- Avocado, rich in vitamin E with elasticizing virtues
- Dried fruit, which promotes the production of collagen
Follow these beauty tips and you will see the skin on your face glow, as well as your mood!
