Self-tanning products work through the combined action of Erythrulose and Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), which by binding with the amino acids of the stratum corneum -surface layer-, darken the skin. The result is a healthy, long-lasting tan.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Do I need to apply, in addition to the self-tanning product, a product to moisturize and nourish my skin?” open=”no”]

Our Self Tanning Lotion deeply moisturizes and nourishes the skin thanks to its formula enriched with Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamins A and E.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How to apply a self-tanning product correctly?” open=”no”]

Before the first application, it is essential to remove impurities from the skin using an exfoliating sponge to even out the skin tone and texture. Assist in the roughest areas (elbows, knees and heels), without neglecting the rest. Then, spread the product evenly over the entire body.
Apply on the face, without neglecting the neck and the outer part of the ears. Avoid the eye contour, hairline and eyebrows.
After application, it is important to wash hands thoroughly with soap and warm water.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What are stretch marks?” open=”no”]

When the skin is stretched, the fibers with less elasticity break, creating marks called stretch marks. At first the striae are reddish or purplish in color, are raised and may itch, and eventually flatten and turn white.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Is there a treatment to eliminate stretch marks?” open=”no”]

There is no treatment that can eliminate stretch marks, so their prevention is of even greater importance. For this purpose, the correct and early application of creams with a high vitamin A content is advisable.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What is the best treatment to prevent the appearance of stretch marks?” open=”no”]

Specialists agree that the best way is to start treatment at the beginning of pregnancy with the application of creams rich in Vitamin A, mainly. This component works by promoting tissue growth, increasing its immune function and reducing infectious diseases.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What is the area where stretch marks appear?” open=”no”]

Stretch marks usually appear on the abdomen, breasts, thighs, hips and lower back.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How should the cream be applied?” open=”no”]

It should be applied in upward circular movements to promote blood circulation and absorption of the cream. It is advisable to use them after bathing as the pores are open and absorb the nutrients of the cream better.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Are there any studies that support the effectiveness of vitamin A on stretch marks?” open=”no”]

A study published by the American Academy of Dermatology (ADD) showed that by using this type of cream for a few months, stretch marks improved their appearance and in some cases even stopped their evolution. On the other hand, in addition to preventing the appearance of stretch marks, creams containing Vitamin A help to avoid the itching sensation caused by skin stretching.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What is dry skin?” open=”no”]

It is a very common disorder in which the skin appears dull and with whitish scaling. It is very rough to the touch and lacks elasticity.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Is a dry skin a sick skin?” open=”no”]

Not necessarily. It may be only a circumstantial alteration of the skin, conditioned by external factors or variations of the organism.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How should healthy skin look?” open=”no”]

Healthy skin looks even and flake-free. It is soft and elastic to the touch.
Desquamation of healthy skin occurs throughout life although it is invisible and does not generate textural changes.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What are the causes or factors that dry out the skin?” open=”no”]

The skin’s moisture depends on its outermost layer, or stratum corneum, which acts as a barrier regulating water loss. It also contains numerous fatty acids that prevent continuous evaporation.
A normal stratum corneum has 20% water and 30 to 50% fatty acids and ceramides that maintain hydration. Water “travels” from the deeper layers of the skin and is retained on the skin surface by the interaction between skin cells and fatty acids.
The causes of dry skin can be:
– Hereditary or familial
– Physiological aging
– Environmental: low temperature, low humidity, sun exposure, air-conditioning, heating
– Chemical agents: soaps and detergents, gels, lotions, perfumes, medicines, etc.

Any healthy skin exposed to these elements may present episodes of dryness of varying degrees.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”In what areas does it usually occur?” open=”no”]

The most affected areas are the front of the legs, feet, forearms and hands.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Is there any age more prone to suffer from it? Why?” open=”no”]Aging reduces the production and retention of water in the skin mainly due to a decrease in fatty acids. This process is gradual and begins around the age of 40. Seventy-five percent of senile skin presents intense dryness and itching.[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How can we detect if we have dry skin? (signs to be aware of their appearance)” open=”no”]When the skin dries out, it loses softness, smoothness and shine. It is rough to the touch and whitish scales of varying sizes may appear and itching may occur.[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Can a person who has oily skin, at another time in his or her life, develop dry skin?” open=”no”]

Oily skin is normal in adolescence and young adulthood in the central area of the face, center chest and back. Over the years this gradually decreases and dry skin may develop in these areas.
The skin on the rest of the body can be dry at any time of life if it is hereditary or if it is normal and subjected to climatic or environmental drying factors.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How can it be prevented?” open=”no”]

– Avoid intense sun exposure
– Use mild and creamy soaps
– Avoid exposure to intense cold and wind
– Moisturize the skin daily with the right products
– Drink 2 liters of water daily
– Avoid tobacco and alcohol consumption

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How should soaps or detergents be used?” open=”no”]

Neutral, mild and creamy soaps should be chosen. Exfoliating soaps are recommended once a week.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Should cream be applied every day? How should it be?” open=”no”]

Moisturizers should be applied daily. This retains water in the skin and reduces its elimination while maintaining softness and smoothness.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Are there elements such as shea butter that help in prevention or treatment? What are they?” open=”no”]

Shea butter is ideal for the prevention and treatment of extra dry skin. It is a natural product extracted from a tree native to Sub-Saharan Africa.
As a substance it forms a film on the skin and its use as a cream produces passive hydration by reducing water loss.
Its excellent active moisturizing power is due to the fact that its chemical composition contains fatty acids that are very similar to those of normal skin.
When incorporated in a properly developed and formulated cream, they are rapidly absorbed without leaving a greasy residue.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Does makeup affect it? What precautions should be taken to apply it?” open=”no”]

A moisturizer should always be applied before makeup, otherwise there is a risk of unevenness and flaking.

[fusion_toggle title=”Can anyone identify the type of skin you have? How can you do this?” open=”no”]

It can be done, but it is not a reliable procedure since it has numerous variations according to age, time of year, stress, activity, etc.
It is generally said that when you get up in the morning, if you wipe your skin with a tissue, you will feel…

– Oily skin will make you dirty with discharge all over your face.
– Dry skin will not leave a residue.
– Combination skin will soil in the t-zone and not on the cheeks.

However, the correct way is to consult a dermatologist.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What are the most important characteristics of each skin type?” open=”no”]

Oily skin: it is thick, shiny, sometimes yellowish-reddish in color. It tends to have enlarged pores, blackheads or whiteheads that give it an irregular appearance as if it were always “dirty”.

Dry skin: has low sebum levels and retains little of the water naturally found in the epidermis. It tends to redden and gives a feeling of tightness, especially after washing with water.

Combination or normal skin: this is the skin of most young and adult women. Its texture is smooth and the color is uniform; it has no spots or flakes. It combines mild oiliness on the forehead, nose and chin (called the T-zone) with smooth skin with a very slight tendency to dryness on the cheeks and around the eyes.

Sensitive skin: it is thin and reddens easily, especially with temperature changes, sun and wind. Tolerates cosmetics and beauty treatments poorly. Has a tendency to dry out and form scales May be associated with any of the above types.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Is skin type related to the aging factor?” open=”no”]

Skin aging depends on hereditary and environmental factors. Hereditary ones manifest themselves over time. Environmental factors (sun exposure, poor hygiene, lack of antioxidants, very dry climates, stress, etc.) have a direct influence on whether or not this process is accelerated. Dry skin may show signs of aging earlier, which can be reversed with proper treatment.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Is it possible to be born with one skin type and then change throughout your life?” open=”no”]

It is not only possible but normal for the skin to change at different stages of life.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What are the signs of photoaging?” open=”no”]

The most frequent signs are: dryness, freckles, wrinkles, loss of elasticity, telangiectasias (spider veins), skin spots, which appear in the most exposed areas: face, neck, neckline and back of the hands.

Sunscreens are products for external use that contain chemical and/or physical substances that act as a barrier against solar radiation, preventing or reducing the aggression of the sun’s rays on the skin.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What are the pros and cons of the sun?” open=”no”]

Outdoor life and prudent exposure to the sun are very healthy. The release of substances capable of influencing the organism would be a possible mechanism of action that would explain the sensation of enveloping warmth, relaxation, energizing and antidepressant action summarized in the phrase “Sunbathing recharges my batteries”. In addition, the sun helps vitamin D synthesis.
The cons are related to overexposure and include photoaging, allergic and skin reactions and more serious lesions such as skin cancer.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”When should you NOT expose yourself to the sun?” open=”no”]

It is not advisable to expose yourself to the sun between 10 am and 4 pm.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How often should sunscreen be reapplied?” open=”no”]

It should be renewed every 2 hours and ideally also when getting out of the water or after excessive sweating.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How do we choose a sunscreen? What is the indicated SPF?” open=”no”]

– It is always preferable to consult a dermatologist about the sun protection factor that is suitable for your skin.
– Must protect against UVB and UVA radiation.
– Choose sunscreens that are also good moisturizers. This facilitates an even tan and prevents the natural drying that occurs when exposed to the sun.
– They must be hypoallergenic.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What is the difference between UVB and UVA rays?” open=”no”]

UV-B radiation is the radiation that reaches the most superficial layers of the skin and is responsible for redness and sunburn. UV-A radiation is that which penetrates into the deepest layers and passes through window glass and eyeglasses. UVA is responsible for premature aging.
What is double UV-B / UV-A protection?
Most sunscreens have a number or index which is the Sun Protection Factor (SPF). This index measures the effectiveness of a product in preventing sunburn caused by UV-B rays.
UV-B radiation causes sunburn, but UV-A can damage the skin tissue beneath the surface. Protection against UV-A rays is therefore essential due to the cumulative and non-visible damage it causes, especially to the sensitive skin of children and adolescents.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How to protect children from the sun?” open=”no”]

Babies under 6 months of age should NOT be exposed to direct sunlight and should not use sunscreen. We must protect them with clothing.
For children older than 6 months, we should apply a sunscreen SPF 30 or higher and keep them in the shade from 10 am to 4 pm.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”On cloudy days, do you tan?” open=”no”]

Yes, of course. Up to 80% of the solar UV radiation can pass through a thin cloud cover.
