7 Tips for after-summer skin care
It is true that with the speed at which we do things every day, our skin is the great forgotten, but it only takes a few minutes a day for it to regain all its radiance. Here are a few tips:
- Prevention first and foremost
As a preventive measure for skin care after the summer, it is advisable to check it to see if any spots have appeared on the face or body. Check spots, moles and bumps carefully to see if they change or have appeared suddenly.
If you have any doubts, see a dermatologist to have them checked and to recommend the most appropriate treatment for your case.
If you are prone to hyperpigmentation (darkening of an area of skin, caused by an increase in melanin), we recommend that you use an anti-spot cream on a daily basis. The Soivre Cosmetics anti-spot range is ideal for it, plus it's formulated with SPF 30 and Symbright, for 360° protection.
- Removes impurities
Before starting any treatment it is necessary to remove impurities by exfoliating your face and body. Keep in mind that each area will need a different exfoliator and for it to be effective, use it once a week.
When exfoliating your face, avoid the eye and mouth area and use gentle movements.

- Cleanse your skin
If you're an urbanite, exposure to city pollution can make your skin dirty. A good tip is to cleanse your skin every night to remove all the dirt accumulated during the day and any traces of make-up.
You can use cleansing milk or micellar waterWe recommend the latter as it does not require rinsing and leaves no residue. After cleansing your skin, apply a toner to tighten pores. And if you're going on a trip? With the micellar water in travel format you will have no excuse.
- Hydration and more hydration
Exposure to sun, chlorine or salt water can dry out the skin and dehydrate it. Don't forget that dehydration is one of the causes of skin ageing. To restore your skin's moisture, you'll need to start a beauty ritual and incorporate it into your daily routine.
On the one hand, in the morning you can use creams that protect your face from the sun and also moisturising treatments depending on your skin type. When you go to bed, you can use a night cream that works while you rest. If you like ORGANIC creams, take a look at Original Collection.
