In spring, I awaken my skin and prepare it for summer by promoting Lymphatic drainage, the Purification and the Cutaneous respiration.

These are 3 essential steps you shouldn't overlook in your skincare routine to keep your skin healthy, smoother, suppler, and in good condition.

This will help it better withstand environmental variations, UV rays, stress, and disorders of all kinds.

In spring, our body is awakening, having to adapt to the changing cycles, and our skin can become more sensitive (especially as the return of pollen and fine particles don't help).
Really!.

During this period, it is not uncommon to see the return of certain skin conditions and chronic inflammations such as acne, hives, eczema...

To give it all the necessary resources and support cellular processes, I therefore invite you to take care of your skin!

Focus on lymphatic drainage

What is the lymphatic system?

Lymph is a transparent fluid (the one found in blisters when you burn yourself) which is found in a secondary network to the bloodstream and circulates throughout our body.

Much like the digestive, nervous or respiratory systems, the lymphatic system performs essential functions for our good health; it is linked to certain organs and glands (spleen, thymus, tonsils, lymph nodes...).

It notably allows rid the body of waste, bacteria and dead cells that can accumulate there, it also plays a very important role in immunity (it allows white blood cells, the true «guardians» of our immunity, to circulate), hormonal regulation and the blood pressure maintenance.

Poor lymphatic drainage can therefore have multiple repercussions on the body and amplify certain problems such as oedema, a feeling of heavy legs, cellulite, venous problems, skin imperfections...

It therefore seems interesting to support the lymphatic system to help it do its job properly.

How to perform lymphatic drainage during your skincare treatments?

It is practised in the form of very gentle massages which help to maximise the effects of your treatments by boosting the diffusion of active ingredients, but also help with good circulation of fluids in the body (and even the face!).

Simply enjoy your skincare rituals to perform a body and facial massage.
You can use certain techniques such as Face modelling To enhance this moment of well-being and self-care. Some of our accessories can also help you adopt these good practices: Gua sha Sodalite or rock crystal and aventurine mushroom are perfect for the face!

They help to stimulate the lymphatic system and prevent swelling (such as under-eye bags), while also boosting microcirculation to restore radiance. Your complexion will appear visibly fresher and smoother, and on top of that, you'll be perfectly relaxed!

For the body, opt for an anti-cellulite brush (it visibly improves skin texture!) or a loofah mitt before applying a moisturiser.

Purification and oxygenation of the skin

Skin cleansing is an essential part of your daily hygiene routine, forming one of the fundamental habits for clear, healthy skin, ready to receive complementary treatments.

Freed from impurities that clog pores, the skin barrier can fully play its protective role and adapt more easily to external aggressors.

At the start and end of the day, it is therefore a step not to be overlooked to remove dead cells, dust, and any microbes remaining on the surface...

Morning and evening, Oceau Marine recommends removing make-up and cleansing the skin with the rinse-off cream. Rose Cleanser.

Its natural assetsseawater, Damask rose and hibiscusare valuable for deep cleansing, tightening pores, limiting inflammation, and activating cellular repair.

By purifying your skin, you also allow for better cellular oxygenation: the « Cutaneous respiration »is activated and toxins are therefore more easily eliminated.

Skin hydration

Whatever your skin type (normal, dry, oily or combination), daily hydration remains necessary.

You regulate it each day from the inside by drinking enough water (the amount should be adapted according to your age and specific needs) and on the outside using moisturising products that are suitable for your skin sensitivity.

Oceau Marine's seawater treatments are particularly nutritious and recharging, they accompany you every day during your routines to deeply moisturise the skin and help it to revitalise.

Their high mineral and trace element content of marine origin makes our treatments true hydration boosters.

As isotonic seawater is perfectly tolerated and assimilated, it can be used on all skin types, even the most delicate! It would be a shame to miss out on it, though...
