From spring flirtation to summer affair In spring, our skin slowly thaws - out of hibernation and into the light. Still delicate, still a little thin-skinned. A gentle start with light moisturiser, sun protection and mild textures - and it's ready for the big show. But what was a gentle flirtation with the sun in spring becomes a real endurance test in summer. Summer - sun - stress factor for the skin Summer is tough on our skin. We travel, we swim, we lie by the lake for hours or stroll through hot old towns. Sounds fantastic - and it is. But not for our skin. What happens in summer: More UV radiation = more cell stress More sweat = more moisture loss More chlorine & salt water = dry, irritated skin More sun cream & make-up = clogged pores What's more: On holiday, people often reapply too little or too late, forget to apply after-sun care - and their skin reacts with a feeling of tightness, redness or even sunburn. Behavioural tips for the summer Make sure you spend enough time in the shadeUV rays stress the skin - especially at midday. Shade protects against sunburn & premature skin ageing. Wear clothing that protects your skinLight, long clothing covers the skin - ideal protection for neck, shoulders & co. Drink enough waterSweating removes moisture.

Happy Mother's Day! Why your mum deserves more than a bunch of flowers Mothers are the backbone of every family. They hold together what threatens to fall apart, plan in the background, organise, care, remind, accompany - and often without saying a word about it. What is often overlooked: The mother is the centre of family life. She often decides what ends up in the shopping trolley for the weekly shop, which products go into the household and which care products are suitable for the family - from soap to hand cream. A daily feat Many mums not only master the daily routine at home, but also the balancing act between work and family life. Juggling meetings, nursery pick-up times, parents' evenings and to-do lists, they are an emotional support, family manager, cook, therapist and organiser all in one. In short, mothers do more than a day in the calendar could ever show. That's why Mother's Day is the perfect time to pause for a moment - and say thank you with a special gift for mum. Mum's hands: strong, stressed - and often neglected A mother's hands are constantly at work. Cooking, washing, carrying, comforting - they are involved in everything. This constant strain often leads to dry, cracked or sensitive skin. That's why skin care is not a luxury for mums, but a necessity.

Spring awakening: Why your skin produces more sebum now What happens to your skin during the transition period? The cold season is slowly coming to an end, temperatures are rising and nature is coming back to life. But it's not just the plants that are switching to spring - our skin is also reacting to the changes. Many notice an increase in sebum production, which makes the skin appear shinier and more prone to blemishes. Why does the skin produce more sebum in spring? 1. higher temperatures stimulate the sebaceous glandsIn winter, the sebaceous glands work on the back burner as the cold temperatures reduce oil production. As soon as temperatures rise, sebum production is increased again - the skin regreases more quickly. 2. rising humidity promotes skin oilWith spring, not only does the temperature rise, but also the humidity. This means that the skin loses less moisture - but at the same time produces more sebum to protect itself against changing environmental conditions. 3. more sunlight stimulates the skinSunlight stimulates vitamin D production, which in turn can influence sebum production. In addition, UV radiation often leads to a thickening of the top layer of skin, which makes it harder for sebum to drain away and can cause blemishes. Effects on your skin: Oily shine and blemishes Skin appears more oily and starts to shine Clogged pores lead to blackheads and spots Incorrect skincare can worsen the skin's appearance Tip: Now is the right time to adapt your skincare routine to the new season. The best skincare for spring 1. gentle but effective cleansingGood cleansing is essential to remove excess sebum and dirt particles. Use mild cleansing products such as Tal ABSOLUE Cleansing Gel, which gently clarifies and does not dry out the skin. 2. light moisturiser instead of rich creamsSwitch from heavy winter creams to light, moisturising formulas that are not too greasy. A good choice is Tal ABSOLUE Detoxifying Day Cream, which intensively moisturises without clogging the pores. 3. regular exfoliation to cleanse poresGentle exfoliation removes dead skin cells and prevents blemishes. 4. daily sun protection is a mustThe spring sun can be intense, which is why you should use a light sunscreen. 5. healthy diet and plenty of waterA balanced diet with plenty of vitamins supports skin health. Drink enough water to hydrate your skin from the inside out.
