Recipe

It helps you maintain a natural tan longer. After sun exposure, your skin needs to recharge. This care nourishes and rehydrates your epidermis, allowing it to rest and regenerate more quickly. Rich in mint hydrosol, it also refreshes your body and soothes irritations and the sensation of heat caused by the sun. Your skin regains all its softness and natural beauty, it does not feel tight and does not dry out. Fresh scent with citrus notes.

Usage

Vegetable glycerin: Provides the necessary water to your cells, your skin gets hydrated and plumped up. A moisturizing agent whose effectiveness on cells is scientifically proven, glycerin improves the appearance of the skin, making it supple and smooth. It is non-comedogenic and very hypoallergenic. Carrot macerate: Is the tanning active ingredient par excellence. Very rich in β-carotene, it gives the skin a slightly tanned effect. Its antioxidant properties also neutralize free radicals caused by sun exposure and responsible for skin aging. Peppermint hydrosol: Offers its refreshing and soothing properties. It also prevents irritations and itching. Toning, it restores radiance to the skin and tones the vessels. The combination of tea tree and mandarin essential oils: Provide their calming and antiseptic properties. Tea tree essential oil is a powerful antiseptic that prevents infections if your skin is damaged by the sun. Mandarin essential oil helps reduce wrinkles and other signs of skin aging. Vitamin E: Natural antioxidant, it protects the oily phases (oils and butters) from oxidation. The oils do not become rancid and therefore do not lose their properties and benefits. It is also attributed with anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties.
