Beautiful skin in autumn: follow your biorhythms!
The influence of biorhythms
The factors that the body must face and adapt to are changes in light intensity, temperature and humidity. At each season, the body undergoes these modifications and gets in phase. Without feeling it directly, the body interacts with these biorhythms and, in the fall, the health of the skin is affected. Like trees whose sap is removed from the ends (the leaves) at the approach of winter to concentrate in the trunk, the body concentrates its energy and abandons its surface: the skin. That which is already often affected by the excesses of summer, is dehydrated.
"In fact, the physiology of the skin changes according to all the rhythms, including those of each hour of the day! For example, as the temperature changes during the day, sebum becomes fluid. But these rhythms also change according to each individual. The advantage with the seasons is that they affect everyone in the same way every year: so we can anticipate! " Explains Isabelle Benoit.
Problem / solution
My skin is less irrigated
Isabelle's diagnosis "You have to compensate for the loss of water by playing on deep hydration."
Action beauty => I deeply hydrate with a serum that I apply under my cream every morning, and applying moisturizing masks. To compensate for the ambient dryness due to heating, I vaporise Esthederm's Cellular Water (100ml, 19.80?) At any time of the day when the skin is tight. Hydro-energizing and made of the same elements as the epidermis, it enters osmosis with the skin it boosts.
My skin thickens
Isabelle's diagnosis: "It is necessary to thin it because the superficial layer of the skin, made of dead cells (called the stratum corneum), thickening, takes up space on the basal layer (the living part) which is oppressed and no longer receives care »
Action beauty => I apply a peeling treatment Repair System Esthederm (76?) Or Retexturing Activator SkinsCeuticals (70?) Exfoliates and plumps. Unlike a scrub that deep cleans, peeling creams with AHA or retinol allow the living part of the skin to regain tonus by thinning the stratum corneum. It applies night or day according to the brand, and for at least a few days in a row, like a cure, to be able to exfoliate the dead layer. The skin is smooth and the skin texture is refined: the skin is better and better ready to receive moisturizing care.
My skin is drier
Isabelle's diagnosis: "The skin also needs lipids to reconstitute its protective film made of water and grease, and to withstand external aggressions such as wind and cold"
Action beauty => I also use rich care, mask or cream of night, generous texture. For example, the Nutri System Mask (39?) With royal jelly is the ultimate change of season because it brings and restores to the skin all the nutrients it is depleted in autumn.
I do not look good
Isabelle's diagnosis "The skin is a reflection of its interaction with the" everything "around us. To care for her also requires a healthy lifestyle! "
Action beauty => I also hydrate myself by drinking water and avoiding eating dried foods by baking, for example by steam.
