Rest assured, the culprits are now well identified: the sun which accelerates ageing, smoking which facilitates the destruction of the elastic fibres that give the skin its suppleness, stress which is a vector of free radicals, a poor diet, pollution, lack of sleep and a sedentary lifestyle.

A FEW WORDS FROM OUR EXPERT

Many cosmetic products are nowadays equipped with UV filters.
However effective they may be, scrubs can be harsh on the skin. You should only use this type of product once or twice a week, no more. Otherwise the excessive trauma may compromise your skin. This is to respect the sensitivity of your skin.
