WHY A DAILY BEAUTY ROUTINE?

It’s vital to protect and regenerate our skin every day, morning and night, especially in our harsh Northern climate.

Ever notice when people walk in from of the cold some have frown lines and redness on their face right away? Does your skin do this? Like so many of us, probably!  Half-jokingly, it’s a cold month reminder of how our skin could turn out ten, maybe twenty years from now, if we don’t take care of it.

The reason for frosty-red face is, here in Canada, like anywhere else with a harsh climate, the bitter, cold, dry air damages the structure of our skin. It’s a known fact that Canadian winters are dry. The nippy air dehydrates skin which, in turn, accentuates inflammation and accelerates the aging process.

This is what we need to protect our skin from.

How to take care of your skin in Canada?

Faced with all these aggressions, it is necessary to pamper and protect your skin with a routine adapted to your skin type … as well as our climate!

For sure everyone has their own skin type, ­so it’s important to use the right product to prevent further harm. Be normal, dry or sensitive skin, the right products will make a difference.  Look on products packaging, to see if it is appropriate to your skin type. Also remember that generic and synthetic products aren’t ideal, they can have a damaging effect on our skin.

And every climate calls for its own Bioactive ingredient­­­­s for your skin. It is preferable to use products adapted for us in Canada: a protective treatment during the day to strengthen the barrier effect of the skin, and a repairing treatment at night , promoting regeneration.

• In the morning:

to prepare the skin for makeup and fortify it in anticipation of the day's external aggressions such as our sudden climatic changes, varying temperatures, cold wind, sun and particles in the air.

• In the evening:

to rehydrate it after removing make-up / cleansing and especially to promote its regeneration. Less subjected to aggressions during the night, the skin regenerates itself intensively. What’s more the skin at night want to breathe and it does not need all the protection of the day.  So no oil or heavy cream.

STEP 3 - TREAT

• EYE CONTOUR

The skin around the eyes is one of the most fragile areas of the face, the epidermis is very thin and it is generally there that the first signs of aging appear. The Nordora Eye Contour protects the skin from dryness, external aggressions and deeply hydrate it.

With neutral pH, our 2 Nordora Eye Contours allow application to the entire eye contour, including the upper eyelid. It quickly penetrates the skin for makeup application.  The Nordora Anti-Aging Eye Contour also has a tightening effect to firm the delicate skin around the eyes.

STEP 1 - CLEANING

You can use the same Nordora cleansers as in the morning for the evening to gently remove makeup and accumulated impurities from the day. If we do not cleanse, the skin becomes irritated, the pores of the skin become blocked, the skin cannot breathe.

STEP 3 - TREAT

• NIGHT SERUM

This is the big difference for the night time routine: at night the skin works to eliminate its toxins, restore its epidermal barrier and rebalance its water content and above all regenerate itself. The concentrated intensive Nordora Serums are the perfect ally for your skin at night.

Above all, do not put a cream or oil on top of the serum. Let your skin breathe!
