You’ve probably already heard that the skin on the décolleté has special needs. But what makes the tissue so special and what does the optimal beauty routine look like? In the following, you will learn how to properly care for your décolleté!
The skin on the décolleté: special features
The skin on the cleavage differs significantly from the tissue of other parts of the body such as the arms and legs and most closely resembles the skin on the face.
The reason: the skin is very thin here and has hardly any sub-fatty tissue. The consequences: it has poor blood circulation and thus quickly appears pale and gray. And: Nutrients circulate more poorly in this region. The tissue is, therefore, more sensitive, more susceptible to harmful environmental influences, and also drier.
In addition, the décolleté is one of the so-called sun terraces, i.e. the exposed parts of the skin that are particularly intensely exposed to UV radiation.
The combination of all these special features ensures that the first signs of aging such as lines, wrinkles, or pigment disorders on the décolleté appear particularly early. Due to the sensitive nature of the fabric, impurities also develop quickly.
Skin care specially tailored to the décolleté is therefore essential!
You need this to care for your décolleté
In general, your décolleté should enjoy the same attention as your face. So take care of this sensitive region every day! The reward is clear, supple, and firm skin.
The care routine always begins with cleaning. Yes, you read that right! The décolleté should also be cleaned daily of sweat, dirt, and other particles that could potentially trigger pimples. And preferably in the morning!
Simply use the same cleansing product that you use for your facial care.
After this step, nourish the skin with a nourishing cream. This is how you smooth dryness lines and arm the tissue against harmful influences. Here, too, you can either simply use your facial care product or oil or lotion especially developed for the décolleté.
The last step of the day is to apply for UV protection. Use the product you use on your face and neck for this as well.
For the ultimate pampering of your skin, apply a serum or moisturizing mask once a week. And: Exfoliate the décolleté to stimulate weak blood circulation.
