Who doesn’t love the feeling of coming back from vacation and hearing the compliment “you have an enviable tan”? In addition to the good weather, the sun and the beach, one of the things we love most about summer is seeing tanned, golden skin, with that sun-kissed glow that we love so much.
But how can we keep our skin tanned for longer? In this article we give you five infallible tips to prolong your tan — even after vacation and sunbathing are over!
1. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!
Hydration is one of the best ways to maintain your tan after vacation — and it's important that you apply moisturizing care before, during and after tanning, as the sun has a drying effect on the skin.
After sun exposure, there's nothing like pampering your skin with our After Sun , a super practical stick with soothing and moisturizing ingredients that help recover the skin of your face and body from sun damage, relieve burns and reduce redness and inflammation.
Another essential care for deep hydration from head to toe is our Puro Sol Balm , a true must-have that restores the skin's luminosity, stimulating its elasticity, shine and firmness!
2. Support skin cell renewal
Did you know that exfoliation is an essential step to maintaining tanned skin? Contrary to what you might think, exfoliating your skin once a week will help remove dead cells and maintain a healthy, luminous and uniform appearance. At this time of year, we love using our Brilha to exfoliate, hydrate and brighten our body skin — its botanical actives are especially suitable for caring for sensitive, dehydrated and marked skin, making it the perfect summer exfoliant!
And for the face? The answer is in our Cleaning Kit , of course! The combination of Jasmine Oil and 100% Organic Cotton Facial Towel will help remove dead cells and stimulate cell renewal, leaving your skin much more hydrated, luminous and uniform, and prolonging the “sun-kissed” look for much longer. time.
3. Choose extra nourishing care
To maintain the sun-kissed appearance that defines facial skin so well during the summer months (and that we so often try to recreate when the holidays are over), there's nothing like applying our Puro Sol Serum .
With anti-aging and anti-sunspot action, this nourishing and repairing facial oil is perfect for all skin types. In addition to deeply hydrating, it helps to calm inflammation and tone the skin, restoring its elasticity and natural shine.
4. When in doubt, highlighter!
We never say no to an extra glow, which is why we created two body highlighters that will make your skin even more luminous, while enhancing your tan. We are talking, of course, about our wonderful Sol and Mar — both enriched with Mica, a natural mineral that gives the skin a silky, sunny glow.
Sol works as a natural tanner, as it gives a slight color to the skin, making it more suitable for those looking for a more intense golden and tanned effect. Sea is ideal for those who want to give their skin a boost of luminosity, as it only gives them a truly enviable glow (without the color component of the Sun).
Whatever you choose, get ready for ultra-luminous, silky-smooth skin!
5. Water, water and more water — inside and out
In addition to all the beauty care, there are two “tricks” that we cannot do without to keep our tan for longer. The first is to lower the temperature of the shower water, as hot water can dehydrate your skin, causing it to begin to chafe faster. And if you can take a cold shower, even better!
The second also involves water, but now from the inside out. We all know that drinking water does wonders for our skin, nails and hair — and our summer tan couldn't escape this rule! So, always have our Thermal Bottle with you, and add our Beauty Drops for even more intense nutrition.
