THE SECRETS OF ASTERIA
Less is more
There's no need to pile up ten products to take care of your skin. A simple routine , with gentle gestures and targeted active ingredients, allows your skin to breathe and regulate itself. Too many layers or ingredients can unbalance the skin, creating redness or pimples. Choose quality over quantity, always.
Protect yourself from the sun's rays
Even on a gray day or behind glass, UVA rays continue to affect the skin. In the long run, they cause spots, uneven skin tone, and premature aging. Incorporate sunscreen into your morning routine, with an SPF of at least 30. A good sunscreen is the most effective anti-aging step there is.
Massage your face for a few minutes a day.
Facial massage stimulates blood circulation, relaxes muscles, drains toxins, and boosts natural radiance. With the E MAXIMIZER, make small, upward strokes from the bottom to the top of the face. It's as much a relaxing moment as it is a treatment, leaving skin plumped, smooth, and luminous.
For your complexion:
It's very important to hydrate yourself from the inside out: drink 1.5 to 2 liters of water a day to enhance your natural glow. Massaging your face with a gua sha will help drain and sculpt your features.
Never sleep with makeup on
It's a golden rule. Even after a long day or a late night, take a few minutes to cleanse your skin. Makeup, combined with pollution and sebum, can clog pores, dull your complexion, and accelerate aging.
Sleep 7 to 8 hours a night
in a calm and regular atmosphere, is a natural, free and irreplaceable anti-aging treatment . Sleep is one of the essential pillars of natural beauty , during the night, the skin enters a phase of intense regeneration. It repairs itself, detoxifies, and produces collagen, this key protein that maintains the elasticity and firmness of the face. Good sleep therefore promotes a fresh, luminous complexion, without dark circles or signs of fatigue.
Choose a strong point to highlight
For a balanced makeup , it's best not to overload the eyes and mouth at the same time. Emphasize one of the two: an intense and sophisticated red with a nude look, or a light smoky eye with natural lips (gloss). This creates a more chic effect, while drawing the eye where you want it.
BLEND AGAIN AND AGAIN!
Poorly blended eyeshadow or blush can make your features look harsh. Take the time to blend with a soft brush or your fingers , using circular motions. This is what makes the makeup look harmonious, diffused, and natural. Transitions between colors should be invisible to the naked eye.
Bien plus qu’un légume bonne mine.
Un de plus gros secret d'Astrée!
La carotte est beaucoup trop sous estimée! On la connaît pour son effet hâlé naturel, mais elle est aussi un puissant allié anti-âge grâce à sa richesse en bêta-carotène et en vitamine A. Elle favorise la régénération cellulaire, protège la peau des radicaux libres et stimule l’éclat du teint. Consommer une carotte par jour, crue, cuite ou en jus, et au bout de quelques semaines vous verrez déjà un changement sur votre peau. Un vrai soin de beauté… à croquer !
Bring a subtle touch of light
A touch of highlighter applied to the light areas: the top of the cheekbones, the bridge of the nose, and the Cupid's bow, gives the face a fresh, vibrant look. Choose a cream or fluid texture for a "glow from within" effect, and avoid overly visible glitter . The light should appear to come from the skin itself.
The lemon-warm water ritual
Drinking a large glass of warm water with the juice of half a lemon when you wake up helps rehydrate the body after the night, stimulates digestion and gives your skin a boost!
Tip: Drink it 15 to 20 minutes before eating to maximize its benefits. For those with sensitive stomachs, start with a less acidic lemon (yuzu, lime) to dilute further with water.
Digital break for mental well-being
Blue light and overstimulation tire the mind. Try a ritual: 20 minutes without a screen before bed, 20 minutes without a screen when you wake up. Between us, a good book is better, right?
Result: better sleep, more mental clarity and fewer dark circles.
4-7-8 Breathing to Relieve Stress
Sit comfortably, inhale through your nose for 4 seconds, hold your breath for 7 seconds, then exhale gently through your mouth for 8 seconds.
Repeat 3 to 4 times. You will notice an immediate effect, your tensions will be released and your mind calmer.
The “skin fasting” trick
One evening a week, let your skin breathe without cream or makeup.
This allows your skin barrier to regenerate naturally.
Still maintain good internal hydration by drinking plenty of water.
The beautiful skin snack
Eat a handful of almonds and some red berries as a snack.
Almonds provide vitamin E, an antioxidant, and berries are rich in vitamin C, which boosts collagen.
A delicious and anti-aging duo.
