Shortcut skin care that works!
So, you have a weekend getaway planned and don't want to stuff your 10 step skincare routine into your carry on. Lucky for you there are lots of hard-working skincare products that let you shorten your skincare routine by working double duty so you can make the most of those last summer weekends without compromising results or your skin’s health!
Micellar water.
A micellar water is a gentle one-step cleanser that is wiped on the skin with a cotton pad or reusable wipe (such as EcoTao). It cleanses your skin with micelles, which are invisible “balls” of cleanser suspended in water that attract and trap impurities on your skin. It is perfect to remove light makeup, to freshen up midday before applying makeup, or to use on busy mornings and late nights when there's not enough time for a full cleansing routine. Try it in: Luzern Micellar Cleansing Water or Payot Micellar Water.
Mask and exfoliant.
No time for a full “at home facial”? Do you have 5 minutes? Try a combination mask and exfoliant, such as Payot Bubble Mask Peeling. Smooth on this pink gel mask which contains a cocktail of fruits acids and AHA’s. Organic fluoride will transform the gel into a bubbly foam that will tingle and gently slough off dead cells, stimulating cellular renewal and leaving your skin with a luminous “fresh from the spa” glow in less time than it takes to pick a playlist to relax with.
Mask and serum.
It's your first day back to work after vacation and reality is hitting a bit too hard this morning. Super nourishing sheet masks, such as Payot Morning Masks, are packed with active ingredients specific to your skin type that will leave your skin smooth, glowing and deeply hydrated in just 15 minutes - all while you sip your coffee (or tea!). Bonus: if you have a face roller (such as Payot Face Moving) use it to work in the leftover serum for a visible lifting effect in just 1 minute!
Tinted creams.
Tinted creams are a combination of skin healthy moisturizing factors and pigments (such as Mary Cohr Fresh Complexion) that hydrate and cover minor imperfections in one step. Dot on skin and blend gently for that perfect barely-there makeup look!
Tinted lip and eye care.
To complete your perfect summer no makeup look, apply a gently pigmented eye contour such as My Payot Eye Contour Glow, which glides on with an ultra fresh texture and instantly reduces puffiness, dark circles, and signs of fatigue. Bonus: it contains 99% ingredients of natural origin! Finally, use a nourishing tinted lip balm, such as Payot Nutricia Cocoon Lip Balm in Rose Candy or Red Cherry. These ultra flattering, super hydrating balms contain a blend of skin friendly ingredients that are 79% of natural origin. Pat it on with your finger for a gentle wash of color or swipe on generously for a more intense tint.
Portable foot care.
If your heels are looking like the surface of Mars and your new lucite heels are chafing a little too much, reach for a super moisturizing and portable foot care stick such as PodoSensé Active Repair Solution. This stick contains candelilla wax to help heal cracks and create a protective coating against chafing, as well as soothing and antiseptic lavender, myrrh, and geranium essential oils to treat irritation. Bonus use: It works miracles to minimize thigh chafing too!
