Summer, its sunshine, tanned skin, a delicately glowing complexion, and radiant skin...but do you know the tricks to making your tan last weeks after you return from vacation? Discover our experts' advice.
Food supplements, your tanning ally
In recent years, tan-boosting dietary supplements have been multiplying on the cosmetics market. Their promise? Combining plant extracts with leading molecules to prepare the skin for sun exposure and help your tan last longer. While it's important to note that none of these dietary supplements can replace the application of sunscreen, they can nevertheless boost your tan without exposing the skin to more damage.
Our recommendation: Opt for a one-month course of dietary supplements, capsules that combine organic carrot extracts with lycopene to give skin a healthy glow. The vitamin E in their formula also helps protect cells from oxidative stress for brighter, longer-lasting skin.
Exfoliation for longer-lasting, luminous skin
On both the body and the face, exfoliating your skin regularly helps rid it of impurities and eliminate dead cells to reveal brighter skin and avoid a dull, grayish complexion when you return to school.
Our recommendation: Exfoliate weekly, using the Vitamin C-enriched Radiance Cleansing Mask on your face to gently exfoliate and reveal your skin's natural radiance in just 5 minutes. For your body, opt for the Granité Exfoliant Corps to gently smooth your skin.
Choosing the right sun protection
Our recommendation: Opt for the SPF50+ sun stick for the face; it's practical and will slip into your bag for touch-ups throughout the day. For the body, the SPF 30 sun water makes it easier to apply sunscreen; its water-resistant texture will keep skin protected throughout the day.

Skin hydration for a long-lasting tan
Between the sun, chlorine, and salt, our skin dehydrates more easily, so it's important to give it the right amount of hydration, regardless of your skin type. For the face, "gel" textures, which are lighter and just as effective, are preferred to avoid weighing it down and to remain comfortable throughout the day.
