Dull complexion, dull complexion, January often proves merciless to our skin. Between holiday overindulgence, fatigue, and shorter days, our only obsession is to regain a glow , or in other words: a healthy glow.
But what is glow ? Why are we so obsessed with it? And what are the steps to achieving a radiant complexion? Find out here.
Glow is an anglicism that means radiance. It is the radiance of healthy, well-hydrated skin that reflects light well.
WHY DO WE WANT GLOW ?
Young skin is naturally glowy . In fact, it naturally reflects light and gives us a healthy glow because it is generally well nourished and hydrated.
But over time, the skin loses its ability to retain water. In addition, cell renewal is slower, which means more dead cells on the skin's surface, a duller complexion, and therefore less light.
But whatever your age, your skin type, whether you have spots, acne or wrinkles, we can all have a glow , if we acquire the right reflexes.
1. YOU WILL TAKE CARE OF YOUR SKIN
- CLEANSE YOUR SKIN WITH RESPECT
Poor cleansing, too harsh, with the wrong ingredients (unrinsed micellar water or Sodium Laureth/Lauryl Sulfates) weakens the hydrolipidic film.
Always choose gentle cleansers and avoid using disposable cotton pads that irritate the skin. Go For Glow Cleansing Gel doesn't contain drying foaming agents. It also helps maintain skin balance thanks to its prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics. Use it with its reusable organic cotton wipe to protect your skin.
- EXFOLIATE YOUR SKIN
We produce on average between 50 and 70 billion cells every day.
Dead skin cells that accumulate on the skin's surface dull the complexion and block light from reflecting through. Gentle, enzymatic, daily exfoliation is the solution for fresh, radiant skin.
Go For Glow Exfoliating Cleansing Gel exfoliates very gently without grit, thanks to its pomegranate enzymes.
Our tip for beautiful skin: leave it on as a quick mask every morning while brushing your teeth, to boost exfoliation and cell renewal.
- HYDRATE AND NOURISH YOUR SKIN
To strengthen the hydrolipidic film, it is important to provide it with hydration and nutrition.
Hydration will be provided by aqueous active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid , vegetable glycerin or aloe vera. To combat severe dehydration, hyaluronic acid is your best ally: it retains 1,000 times its weight in water.
Nutrition is the supply of oil. To retain water in the skin, it is also necessary to provide it with nutrition. And here, we must think about vegetable oil .
Go For Protection Moisturizer contains apricot plant oil and hyaluronic acid to nourish and hydrate skin and help you look your best every day.
2. YOU SHALL EAT FRUITS AND VEGETABLES
It cannot be stressed enough that it is very important to eat fruits and vegetables. They contain antioxidants, which are responsible for their anti-aging properties.
The fiber and sugars they contain will nourish your good gut bacteria. They also boost your immune and digestive systems, helping you achieve a healthy body and healthy skin.
Eat locally and seasonally. This will be good for the planet, but also know that eating locally avoids fruits and vegetables picked too early (to withstand the journey).
These healthy products are therefore, especially if they are organic, richer in vitamins and minerals. They will have beneficial effects on your body and your skin: a healthy glow guaranteed!
Winter fruits and vegetables: · Cauliflowers and greens, broccoli. · Leeks, pumpkins, carrots or even endives and beets. · Pears, apples, oranges and clementines.

Rich in prebiotics and probiotics and packed with draining and detoxifying plants, it stimulates digestion and helps the liver rid itself of toxins generated by eating foods that are richer than usual.

Also, drink plenty of water and avoid overconsumption of stimulants (tea, coffee, alcohol) which dehydrate.
Well cleansed, exfoliated, hydrated and nourished from the inside and out, your skin will regain all its youthfulness and radiance and you will look good every day!
