After a well-deserved vacation, it's time to return to the city, to routines, and to work. For our skin—still golden from the sun, with that summer glow—the "back to the city" can be a challenge. Pollution, toxins, blue light from screens, and stress are silent enemies that accelerate aging and rob us of vitality.
That's why, at this stage, I always like to reinforce my skincare rituals: deep cleansing, good hydration, and of course, sun protection, which I never skip.
1. Cleaning
Whenever I return to the city, I feel my skin needs an extra detox. The city air always leaves invisible marks that, if not properly removed, end up accumulating.
My ritual always starts with the Facial Towel and Jasmine Cleansing Oil . It's the most natural way to cleanse without being harsh, removing makeup and impurities, while keeping the skin hydrated and comfortable.
Next, I apply the Detox Serum . For me, it's a true urban shield: it protects collagen from pollution exposure, fights free radicals, and helps keep skin firm and radiant.
2. Toning
Another step I never skip is toning. My choice? Rose Essence .
I love this skincare routine because it's so much more than just a toner: it prevents premature aging, deeply nourishes, and aids in cell regeneration. After sun exposure, it also helps to reduce dark spots and even out skin tone. The result is immediate—fresher, brighter, and firmer skin.
3. Exfoliation
For me, radiant skin is skin that breathes. And exfoliation is essential for that.
My go-to product is the Honey & Acai Luminous Mask , which I use twice a week. It's super gentle, doesn't irritate, and helps release toxins, remove dead cells, and stimulate cell regeneration. My skin seems to "absorb" all the hydration and nutrients and looks brand new!! Full of elasticity and radiance.
4. Hydration
With clean and refreshed skin, it's time for deep hydration. For this return to the city, I have two favorites that never fail me: the Pure Sun Serum and the Regenerating Balm .
Puro Sol contains an infusion of 14 highly nutritious plants that work together to restore energy and radiance. It acts as an intensive repairer, perfect after long days in the sun.
The Regenerating Balm is my SOS treatment. It deeply nourishes, helps reduce redness, and balances oiliness. One of its main ingredients, Japanese Camellia Oil , is rich in antioxidants and fatty acids that protect the skin from the effects of urban pollution.
5. Sun Protection
Even away from the beach, sun protection is still essential.
Puro Sol Zinco Leite Solar is a product that never leaves my toiletry bag. It guarantees UVA/UVB protection, deeply moisturizes, and preserves skin elasticity. And what's more, it also protects against blue light emitted by electronic devices—something we use constantly in our daily city life.
MPL Super Tip
I never forget that true beauty also comes from within .
On my way back to the city, I always carry my MPL'Beauty thermos and add the Beauty Drops to the water. This mixture helps promote firmness, elasticity, and natural radiance, as well as protecting against free radicals and DNA damage.
This is the ritual that helps me keep my skin luminous and healthy, even in the hustle and bustle of city life. They are small gestures, but they make all the difference — for me and for all of us who want vibrant, strong, and beautiful skin, in any season.
