Réduire les impuretés et imperfections de votre peau en 3 étapes

Reduce your skin's impurities and imperfections in 3 steps

Between urban pollution, chronic stress, hormonal imbalances, and unsuitable skincare, our facial skin faces countless daily aggressions. The result? Impurities build up, imperfections appear, and the complexion becomes uneven, sometimes dull. Yet, it is entirely possible to regain clear, radiant skin—without completely overhauling your routine.

With a progressive, well-thought-out approach, Lauvée offers you an effective three-step method, combining deep cleansing, targeted treatments, and protective hydration, to sustainably reduce skin imperfections.


Step 1: Cleanse and purify the skin daily

Why is cleansing essential?


Every day, the skin naturally accumulates impurities: pollution particles, dust, sweat, excess sebum, makeup… Without thorough yet gentle cleansing, these elements clog the pores and encourage the appearance of blackheads, microcysts, or inflammatory breakouts.

Morning cleansing removes excess sebum produced overnight and prepares the skin for treatments. Evening cleansing is indispensable to rid the skin of all particles and oxidizing agents built up during the day.

 

How to cleanse your skin properly?


For optimal results, choose a purifying, soap-free facial cleanser that is both gentle and effective. Formulas containing salicylic acid, white clay, or zinc are ideal for purifying without aggressing.

🌿 The Lauvée expertise: the Lauvée facial cleansing brush provides a deep cleanse thanks to its gentle micro-vibrations that unclog pores while respecting the skin’s natural balance. The result: smoother, fresher, more radiant skin from the very first week of use.

Gestures to avoid

  • Do not touch your pimples, however tempting it may be—you risk introducing bacteria or leaving scars.

  • Avoid abrasive mechanical scrubs on a daily basis, which can weaken the skin barrier.

To complete cleansing…


Always finish your routine with a hydrating mist or a toner: these products boost the skin’s natural hydration, rebalance its pH, and provide an instant fresh effect.


Step 2: Exfoliate and Treat in Depth

Exfoliation: a key step to prevent imperfections


Even with good cleansing, the skin can accumulate dead cells that block its natural renewal. Gentle exfoliation helps to:

  • Stimulate cell turnover,

  • Unclog pores,

  • Improve skin texture,

  • And prevent new imperfections from forming.

Opt for chemical exfoliation (with AHA such as glycolic acid, or BHA such as salicylic acid) once or twice a week. These actives gently dissolve dead cells without abrasiveness.

 

Purifying masks: for targeted detox action


Complement this step with a weekly purifying mask. Clay-based masks (green clay), activated charcoal, or formulas enriched with tea tree, lavender, or peppermint essential oils are perfect to:

  • Tighten pores,

  • Absorb excess sebum,

  • Detoxify the skin,

  • And reduce inflammation.

🌱 Apply the mask after exfoliation to maximize absorption of active ingredients. Leave on for 10–15 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water.

 

Targeted treatments: act locally for greater effectiveness


Some areas require specific care. That’s where anti-blemish serums come in, enriched with antibacterial and healing ingredients (like niacinamide, sulfur, or benzoyl peroxide). Apply only on the affected areas, morning and/or evening.

Purifying patches are also an excellent option, acting overnight to visibly reduce inflammation.

 

 


Step 3: Hydrate and protect the skin

Hydrate—even when your skin is oily?


A common misconception is that blemish-prone skin does not need hydration. In reality, depriving your skin of moisture triggers an overproduction of sebum to compensate, which only worsens shine and acne issues.

Choose a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer enriched with regulating actives such as niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, or aloe vera gel. These ingredients provide hydration without clogging pores.


Sun protection: a daily reflex

UV rays can intensify dark spots left by blemishes and disrupt the skin’s repair mechanisms. Daily sun protection is therefore essential—even on cloudy days. Opt for a mattifying sunscreen fluid that lets the skin breathe.


Nutrition and lifestyle: the link with skin


The skin is a mirror of your overall health. To maximize the effects of your routine, make sure to:

  • Drink enough water (at least 1.5L per day),

  • Consume antioxidant-rich foods (berries, leafy greens, nuts),

  • Include omega-3s (fatty fish, flaxseeds),

  • Avoid refined sugars and ultra-processed foods, which promote inflammation.

🧘‍♀️ Also, remember to manage your stress through meditation, exercise, or mindful breaks. Cortisol (the stress hormone) plays a direct role in triggering breakouts.


Smoothness, consistency, and the right tool

Reducing impurities and skin imperfections takes time, consistency, and the right gestures. A simple but regular routine, combined with skin-friendly products, can work wonders in the long run.

By combining Lauvée’s technology with high-quality skincare, you turn a simple habit into a true expert ritual. Our facial cleansing brush becomes the essential ally for anyone wishing to reveal healthier, clearer, and more radiant skin.

 

 

And remember: if imperfections persist despite a consistent routine, it is always recommended to consult a dermatologist, who can adapt treatments to your skin type.
