June 11, 2020

Summer is in the air and after a surreal lockdown, I think we are all ready to get into that light and fun summer mood and 'joie de vivre'. Whether you are staying put, packing your bags, moving to your summerhouse there are few best skin care products for summer you should add to your shelf for your skin routine to be as perfect as the days ahead! 

Natural Sunscreen by Josh Rosebrook

1. SPF 

Whether you use it religiously all year long or not, in summer time it is a must. Unless of course you are staying indoors, but who wants that! We love Josh Rosebook Nutrient Day Cream because it is both a moisturizer and an SPF at the same time. Not only does it provide needed hydration and protection but it is also formulated with anti oxidant ingredients ideal to help you fight the damaging effects of pollution and sun. It is light in texture, does not leave a white residue and is adapted for all skin types. It comes in a tinted and non tinted version. The tinted version (universal tint) is great to give you a natural glow without make up. We recommend the tinted version for anyone with uneven skin tone or with rosacea.

It is also infused with honey and plant based Hyaluronic Acid  to nourish and hydrate.

6. Vitamin C

While it is strongly advisable to drop your Vitamin A or retinol in the summer, especially during the day, due to the risk of skin sensitization; Vitamin C is a gentler hero ingredient to keep your skin healthy and smooth in summer. It is one of the most powerful anti oxidant, it is also great in fading dark spots, hyper pigmentation and fighting breakouts. Agent Nateur Holi C is a powder formula, the most stable form of Vitamin C. Under this form it will retain its potency throughout the lifetime of your vial. It is mixed with calcium to stimulates hyaluronic acid production and increase skin elasticity. One of the best of its league.
