What skincare should you use for beautiful skin? The keys to a successful routine
Beautiful skin starts with a balanced skin barrier , a respected microbiome , and regular care . Here's a clear and effective guide to choosing the right skincare and routine.
The fundamentals of beautiful skin
A respectful pH and zero stripping to preserve the barrier.
Humectants + lipids = lasting comfort & elasticity.
SPF is your best preventative anti-aging product.
Prebiotics/postbiotics for skin that defends itself better.
Regularity beats intensity: little, but good , every day.
Key assets to prioritize
Hyaluronic acid hydration
Plumps and improves elasticity. Ideal morning and/or evening.
Niacinamide / Vitamin B3 balance
Refines grain, regulates and strengthens the barrier — excellent tolerance.
Ceramides & plant barrier butters
Replenishes lipids, calms underlying inflammation and protects against drying out.
Natural antioxidants (green tea, red vine) radiance
Fight oxidative stress and revive brightness.
Bakuchiol (plant alternative) smoothing
Improves the homogeneity and appearance of fine lines, high tolerance.
Morning routine
Gentle cleanser
Remove sweat & impurities without stripping to start on a stable base.
Hydrating/Antioxidant Serum
Hyaluronic acid + plant antioxidants for hydration & urban shield.
Barrier cream
Ceramides + butters for comfort and makeup hold.
Daily protection
SPF adapted to your exposure, 365 days/year.
Evening routine
Recovery cleaning
Remove filters, pollution, and fine particles. Base: comfort.
Targeted care
According to the need: uniformity (niacinamide), smoothing (bakuchiol), soothing (pre/postbiotics).
Nutritional cream
Replenish lipids to optimize nighttime regeneration and overall tolerance.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Multiply the “strong” active ingredients the same evening (AHA + retinoid + mechanical exfoliation).
- Stripping cleansers that weaken the barrier → discomfort & redness.
- Forgetting daily protection: shine and uniformity suffer.
- Changing routine too often: allow 4–6 weeks to evaluate.
