Why protect yourself from the sun?
Sun exposure can cause sunburn in the short term. In the long term, it can lead to premature aging and skin cancer, which is unfortunately common.
Only 53% of French people think about protecting themselves from UV rays to slow down skin aging, and 39% believe they can do without sunscreen because "they don't really need it," associating this action with times of exposure, such as at the sea or by a swimming pool.
It's clear that daily sun protection, with or without sun, is not yet a habit that everyone has adopted. However, it is essential to limit cellular damage, preserve the skin barrier, and prevent premature signs of aging.
What is photoaging?
UV rays induce photoaging, which results from the accelerated breakdown of collagen and elastin, as well as the accumulation of melanin. The result: premature wrinkles, sagging skin, and even pigment spots.
UVA and UVB: which rays should you be wary of?
UVA rays, like Aging, are "aging rays" that damage cells, while UVB rays, like Burning, are "burning rays" that cause sunburn. Both can cause serious skin damage, regardless of skin type and phototype.
In winter, same fight?
It's essential to wear daily UV protection year-round because UVA rays can penetrate clouds and windows in all seasons. This is also true on airplanes!
Should we protect ourselves from blue light?
The visible light in the solar spectrum can accelerate skin aging. The light from screens can cause skin hyperpigmentation. It's also important to protect yourself from it, using specific formulas.
How to choose your cream with SPF?
That's why AIME has designed Le Soin SPF quotidien , in collaboration with a Korean laboratory pioneering photoprotection. Its expert formula composed of the latest generation sun filter leaves no white marks or sticky finish. Enriched with probiotics and active ingredients such as niacinamide, organic desert oil or glycerin, it also offers good hydration and antioxidant protection. With its sensory and light galenic, it can be applied alone as a day cream, as the very last step of a routine or as a makeup base. Thanks to this daily ally, protecting your skin becomes a simple and pleasant gesture at the same time.
What is the best skincare and sun protection routine?
Every morning, simply apply Daily SPF Care as a day cream, or after a moisturizing serum based on vitamin C to benefit from its antioxidant and anti-dark spot properties.
In the evening, to properly cleanse UV filters and sebum, pollution and makeup residue, it is advisable to double cleanse your face morning and evening with an oil and a foaming treatment such as The Simple Oil and The Simple Cleanser . It is also worth treating yourself to LED sessions in the evening before going to bed, or at the Glow Studio , to repair the skin from damage linked to the external environment. Finally, we also take care of our skin from the inside with probiotic- based supplements that strengthen the skin flora and collagen and vitamin C-based supplements to strengthen collagen and elastin fibers and ensure a nice glow.
