Step #1: Eye Care Basics Oftentimes, the eye area is neglected during our daily skincare routine. The sensitive and delicate skin around the eyes requires special care and attention. Dr. Tonar EYE eye cream supplies your skin with needed moisture and important nutrients, such as vitamin A, hyaluronic acid, apricot kernel oil and vitamin E, to boost skin radiance. Step #2: Use an Eye Serum! A high-quality lash serum is a true game-changer in perfecting the length and volume of our lashes. The Eyelash Awakening Serum by M2 Beauté stimulates hair growth and supports the lashes by preventing premature hair loss. Step #3: Definition, Lift & Length A good mascara will ultimately give your lashes the definition and maximum length they require. Of course, selecting the right mascara is crucial. The Lash Lift Mascara by SWEED is designed with an innovative brush applicator that imparts definition, colour intensity and maximum length to each and every lash.

It is therefore vital to incorporate sun protection into your daily routine. Anti-aging skincare is of little use when sun protection is missing from your beauty routine. Sun protection products should be the be-all and end-all of your routine. Be sure not to focus solely on the areas that are the most susceptible to sunburn. The face, lips and hair should be protected as well. 1. Day cream with SPF The face is susceptible to damage caused by UV rays therefore it must be protected at all costs. A day cream with SPF is recommended to prevent premature skin aging. The main function of sunscreen is to protect the skin against UV rays. A day cream with an SPF protects, nourishes and repairs the skin. 2. Protect the skin all year round Ideally, sun protection should be integrated into your daily skincare routine - during summer and winter. As little as 20 minutes of sun exposure a day adds up to 120 hours of UV exposure a year. Your skin will thank you for every day that it is protected against the harmful effects of the sun. Cosmeterie tip: Korean women are on top of their game when it comes to using sunscreen: the Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF50+ PA++++ is a top-class option with its SPF 50 PA ++++. 3. Protection for the eye and lip region The most sensitive areas of the skin - that are coincidentally the parts of the skin that are more susceptible to UV damage - are often neglected. When exposed to direct sunlight, it is advised to protect the lips with a balm. Tip: The rich textures of lip care products can be used on the eye region too! Cosmeterie tip: The Mimitika Sunscreen Lip Balm with SPF 20 is a popular companion when sunbathing. It offers protection, does not dry out the skin and provides a clear finish. 4. SPF for the hair Even though the hair does not show any signs of sunburn, it is essential to protect it from UV rays. Because the head is oftentimes exposed to the sun, it can weaken the keratin structure of the hair and, at times, this can lead to hair damage. To counteract this, it is advised to use a shampoo with UV protection or sun protection oil.

Sunny winter days and landscapes covered in snow call for a skiing holiday. Unfortunately, cold temperatures and winter sporting activities are not particularly beneficial for the skin. Icy temperatures, cold air and wearing thick, woollen hats can damage the skin and cause dry, chapped areas. That's why it is vital to take extra care of your skin and invest more time into your skincare routine after a day on the slopes. Give your skin a lit-from-within glow with our après-ski beauty routine on your next skiing trip. Step #1: moisture, moisture and more moisture While skiing, the skin is exposed to icy and especially dry air for hours, which can lead to dehydration and a dull-looking complexion. A high-quality moisturiser is essential to prevent this from occurring. The Vital Facial Cream by NUORI is a lightweight cream that restores the skin's vitality. The cream is formulated with hyaluronic acid that is uniquely split to penetrate deeper into the layers of the skin to restore the skin's natural moisture balance. Discover more moisturisers here. Step #2: renewed glow for your eyes Dark spots may appear under the eyes after 2 days on the slopes and the eye area may appear more lacklustre. The skin around the eyes is particularly sensitive and eye masks can gently pamper tired and stressed eye areas. The Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Hydra-Gel Eye Patches offer an instant boost of freshness and minimise the appearance of fine lines. Their hydrating effect amplifies the sparkle in your eyes again. Browse a wide selection of high-quality eye care products here. Step #3: heavenly soft lips Dry and chapped lips are not only visually unappealing but can also be uncomfortable or even painful. The combination of cold air and damp heat that tends to build up under balaclavas does nothing to prevent your lips from chapping. Rich lip care is therefore a must-have for any asprès-ski beauty ritual. Dr. Jart+'s Ceramidin Lip Pair is designed to intensively nourish dry and dehydrated lips and prevent dryness by forming a protective barrier on the skin. Explore a wide assortment of lip care products here.

A dry and lacklustre appearance may be the result. We have the perfect cosmetic products that are sure to pamper your skin during winter.

The Good Karma Body Wash by I WANT YOU NAKED cleanses in a particularly mild way and envelops your body with a refreshing scent obtained from tangerine and bay leaves. The moisturising Hand & Body Wash Elderflower by L:A BRUKET also ensures a soft, well-nourished skin feel. Tip #2: Rich formulas for added shine and volume Preserve the summer-glossy hair look during winter with nourishing active ingredients. Rahua shampoos, like the Color Full Shampoo, supply the hair with vital nutrients from roots to ends and ensure a radiant and fresh appearance. Always follow up with hydrating hair oils, like the Fushi Really Good Hair Oil, or dry oils, such as NUXE's Huile Prodigieuse. The hair oils are formulated to provide the hair and the scalp with highly nourishing effects.

It yearns for an extra portion of care and intensive moisture. Discover 3 product tips that will see you through winter and beyond!

2025-01-08T00:00:00+01:00 2025-01-08T00:00:00+01:00 https://www.cosmeterie.ch/en-CH/info/magazine/our-winter-must-haves Cosmeterie switzerland@cosmeterie.com https://www.cosmeterie.ch/en-CH During summer we prefer light-weight products: fast-absorbing moisture gels, fresh and floral fragrances and vibrant pastel shades. The colder months of the year call for change. The skin requires richer formulas, more intensive, heavier perfumes and, once the festive party season hits, red lips and bordeaux-coloured manicures. These are our favourite winter must-haves: Rich skincare The skin often has a very dry and taut feel during winter. This is due to the reduction in sebum production that takes place, which lowers the moisture level of the skin. To balance this, the creams and body lotions we use need to be of rich consistencies with nourishing properties. The L:A BRUKET Bergamot & Patchouli Body Butter is just that. It's the perfect hydrating solution for dry skin during winter. Intensive Perfumes Warm, woody and spicy fragrance compositions are the best picks during winter, paired with a hint of vanilla, tangerine and seductive amber. Rausch by J.F. Schwarzlose Berlin has a high concentration of perfume oils with woody, spicy, sweet and oriental accords. The perfume starts off with the warmth of pink pepper and sandalwood that transforms into the sweetness of vanilla and patchouli and is completed by the smoky notes of amber and oud. Aventure by Frau Tonis Perfum impresses with its peppery fragrance notes paired with a delicate scent of cedarwood. Festive Shades Christmas and New Year's Eve are reason enough to showcase a deep red lipstick and seductively burgundy-coloured nails. A classic red shade is a sure way to exude elegance. The Nailberry Nail Polish in Noirberry is a sexy wine-red shade that compliments any and every outfit. The LʼOxygéné colour palette is breathable, water and moisture-permeable, certified halal, vegan and gluten-free. Scented Candles Winter calls for scented candles to set the perfect mood. Snuggle up with low-dimmed candlelight and a glass of tasty mulled wine.

2024-11-29T00:00:00+01:00 2024-11-29T00:00:00+01:00 https://www.cosmeterie.ch/en-CH/info/magazine/glowing-skin-this-holiday-season Cosmeterie switzerland@cosmeterie.com https://www.cosmeterie.ch/en-CH The Christmas season is a very special time that is best spent with family and friends. Nevertheless, the weeks leading up to Christmas are usually very turbulent and stressful - and oftentimes we tend to neglect taking time out for ourselves. All the more reason to treat yourself to conscious self-care sessions to give your mind and body a break. We have put together a little facial care routine to give your skin a fresh glow this holiday season. Step #1: Deep cleansing Our skin is exposed to impurities, excess sweat and make-up on a daily basis which can lead to irritation and dryness. Thorough and intensive cleansing is therefore important to relieve and strengthen the skin. Our tips: The Vital Foaming Cleanser by NUORI cleanses the skin down to the pores and actively counteracts dryness. It is enriched with valuable antioxidants that strengthen and protect the skin barrier. The Evercalm Gentle Cleansing Gel by REN gives your skin a pleasant feeling of freshness without having a drying effect which is why the gel is also suitable for very sensitive skin. The Blue Volcanic Stone Purifying & Antioxidizing Cleansing Gel by avant has intensive cleansing and antioxidant properties which not only gently removes dirt particles and make-up residues but also strengthens the elasticity of the skin. Step #2: Time to mask up Masks are a must to impart a true boost of freshness. Irrespective of whether you opt for a sheet, cream or gel mask, your skin will enjoy the nurturing active ingredients to reveal renewed radiance. Our tips: The Pumpkin Enzyme Mask by Peter Thomas Roth gently exfoliates the skin and gives you a refined and naturally glowing complexion. Bio Thai's Sensory Black Mask Patch provides the moisture and nutrients needed to create an even-looking complexion. Step #3: Pore-refining peels and scrubs for a clear complexion Our skin tends to take on a pall and expressionless appearance when we face stressful situations. Using liquid peels on a regular basis breathes freshness and radiance into the skin and frees it from dead skin cells. Our tips: Alpha Beta Peel Universal Formula by Dr Dennis Gross evens out imperfections in skin tone, strengthens skin structure and helps to minimise early signs of skin aging. Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Scrub fights blemishes with effective antioxidant and clarifying properties. Step #4: Flawless tan - even in winter We are all too familiar with our tans fading very quickly once summer is over. James Read's H2O Tan Mist Face imparts a flawless, glowing and even-looking appearance all year round.

Chemical peels like Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) and Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs) are two active ingredients found in many cosmetic products that have great benefits for the skin. Learn more about the differences between the two acids and what benefits they can have for your skin. Which acid should you use for which skin type? AHAs are water-soluble, so they only work on the skin's surface. Generally, they are preferred for normal to dry, sun damaged skin. BHAs are oil-soluble, making them best for normal to oily skin prone to bumps, blemishes, and enlarged pores. Since BHAs also have natural skin-soothing properties, they are gentle enough even for sensitive skin. Which acid offers which advantages? AHAs: Exfoliate the top layers of the skin Stimulate collagen production Protect your skin from free radicals Lighten of dark spots Moisturise BHAs: Dissolve dead skin cells Minimize pores and blackheads Stimulate the body's collagen production & improve skin texture Even out the complexion Application tips: Whether you use them in the form of a wash gel, serum, toner or cream - if you've never used acids in your care routine, it is important to start with a small dose (1-2x/week). If your skin tolerates them well, you can increase how frequently you use them after a few weeks. Important: Whenever using skincare products with acids, make sure you're wearing sufficient UV protection!
