School's out, your holiday is booked, and the sun is ready to greet you! 🌞 It's time to prep your skin for those long, lazy summer days. At Folli Oil, we're all about helping you achieve healthier, smoother skin. Here are our top 6 tips to ensure your skin is as ready for your holiday as you are:
1. Gentle Exfoliation
Exfoliation is the secret to a smoother, fresher complexion. But remember, it's a gentle art. Our Folli Oil Body Scrub provides a delicate yet effective exfoliation. Alternatively, dry skin brushing is a fantastic way to reveal soft, fresh skin and comes with a host of health benefits!
Start exfoliating a few weeks before your holiday to give your skin time to adjust and avoid any redness or irritation right before your trip. Focus on rough areas like knees, elbows, and heels. We recommend exfoliating your face 1-2 times a week and your body 2-3 times a week.
2. Skin Hydration
Proper hydration is the cornerstone of healthy skin, especially during the balmy summer months. Our Folli Oil Daily Treatment Oil is specially formulated to deliver the hydration your skin craves, leaving it soft, supple, and revitalised.
Remember, hydration starts from the inside out, so make sure you're drinking enough water each day. Foods with high water content, like cucumbers, watermelon, and strawberries, can also help keep your skin hydrated. Plus, your skin repairs itself while you sleep, so ensure you're getting enough rest!
3. Applying Fake Tan
Want to add a little extra glow? Consider applying a fake tan. Exfoliate and hydrate your skin beforehand for an even, natural-looking tan.
Pay particular attention to knees and elbows, which tend to be drier and absorb more product. Use a tanning mitt for even application and to prevent stained hands. Blend well to avoid streaks, and remember, a fake tan doesn't provide sun protection, so don't forget your sunscreen!
4. Sun Protection
Protecting your skin from the sun's harmful rays is essential. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen before stepping outdoors, even on cloudy days.
5. Post-Sun Care
After a day in the sun, your skin needs some extra love. If your skin feels hot, take a cool shower to help reduce the temperature and soothe any potential sunburn.
Our Folli Oil Exfoliating Tonic, enriched with soothing aloe vera, is designed to cool, soothe, and hydrate your skin, helping to maintain its health and vitality. Avoid more sun exposure if you've overdone it, and wear protective clothing and stay in the shade as much as possible.
6. In Case of Emergency
Encounter an ingrown hair or a spot of irritation? Don't panic! Our Intensive Care Oil, part of the Folli Oil Emergency Fix, is your go-to for quick relief. It's like a mini spa treatment for your skin, whenever you need it.
