What is your morning and evening routine?
In the morning, I wash my skin with water and then with a cleansing emulsion. I apply Aloe Vera gel from the brand Forever Living, then a serum. Finally, I don’t leave without applying my antioxidant Protection urbaine day cream.
In the evening, I wash my skin with Aleppo soap, Aloe Vera and apply a very oily cream, home made, based on shea, calendula, beeswax and sweet almond. Or I apply my Holidermie Fundamental Regeneration.
