Our Guide To Firmer Skin
Almonds have firming and refining properties. These Provençal fruits are not only delicious and excellent at nourishing the skin, they also contain firming and refining active ingredients. L’OCCITANE has filed two important patents for almond proteins and almond and rose buds.
The Top 5 Rules for firmer skin
1. Massage your body: focus on your tummy, bottom and thighs. Always combine your firming product with good massage techniques.
2. Use a body scrub to eliminate dead cells and impurities.
3. Eat fat-burning ingredients: courgette, apple, lemon, green tea, pepper, pineapple, broccoli, etc.
4. Use a refining gel to diminish the appearance of cellulite.
5. Use a smoothing, light-textured cream to have smoother skin and lighter-feeling legs
Your Firming Skincare Routine
1- WAKE UP YOUR BODY
Wake up your body with the Almond Crunchy Muesli Scrub: gently massage your body while you shower. The crushed almond shells will remove any impurities and dead cells. Your skin will feel soft and smooth, and be ready to absorb all the benefits of your firming and refining body care products Wash up with Almond Shower Oil as you would with your usual shower gel or soap. When in contact with water, this deliciously appealing almond oil turns into a dreamy milk texture. Just rinse with water for soft and supple skin that isn’t left with a greasy touch.
