Discover the skincare secrets of 3 women

On the occasion of International Women's Day, we asked three inspiring women what it means to them to "take care of their skin", their skincare routine and their favorite product from the PERS range. Each with her own personality and story, shares her secrets with you.

Olivia Hayoun

Olivia Hayoun is co-founder of the Colette Lab dietary supplements brand and founder of Business Women in Paris, a network and podcast for women entrepreneurs.

I'm very faithful to my skincare routine : in the morning, I use Dermalogica's Vitamin C-based range, with light textures that give my skin a luminous effect. In the evening, I use the PERS range, which I adore: the Eye Cream first, and then I alternate between the Retinol 0.3% Serum and the Rich Cream. The sensoriality is extraordinary! Finally, I use Suzanne Kaufmann's gentle cleansing products morning and night.

For me, taking care of my skin is a holistic approach that includes the quality of my sleep, a well-balanced diet and exercise! When I forget these precepts, my skin is immediately more oily, and inflammatory pimples appear. I also take food supplements to boost my metabolism: good magnesium, collagen and konjac for good digestion.

My favorite PERS product? It's undeniably the Retinol Serum, which I find very effective, moisturizing without being harsh on my skin. I was blown away! I haven't tested the Sun Protection yet, but I already know it's going to be my next favorite, as the texture looks incredible!

Annabelle Halimi

Annabelle Halimi, founder of Grace Café, celebrates the taste of homemade food with tasty, well-balanced dishes.

I always start my day with PERS Vitamin C Serum for its fresh texture and addictive scent that boosts my radiance. I often have dry skin, so I use the Rich Cream immediately afterwards as a mask or cream to nourish it instantly. My skin is immediately plumped and regains its elasticity! Finally, I always finish off with a touch of Glow Balm on my cheekbones and lips.

Taking care of my skin means above all having a healthy lifestyle. I don't drink alcohol or smoke, I go to bed early and my diet plays an important role. Every day I allow myself a little pleasure: cooking with my children, choosing a new book, discovering a district of Paris with my husband or even a good film in the evening with my family.

My favorite PERS product? It's hard to choose because I love them all, but Rich Cream never leaves my bedside table! I love its scent, its texture and above all, it repairs my guilty pleasure: sun exposure...

Magali Calmon

Magali Calmon is the director of an aesthetic medicine clinic in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, and a skin expert at PERS.

My current skincare routine is simple, effective and, above all, adapted to my skin. In the morning,I start with a gentle cleansing, followed by SPF50+ and a Vitamin C serum to protect my skin from external aggressors. In the evening, aftercleansing and removing make-up, I alternate every other night between a retinol to stimulate cell regeneration and a rich cream to nourish and repair my skin.

Taking care of my skin means adopting an appropriate routine that protects, nourishes, stimulates and keeps it healthy. This involves a number of essential steps: cleansing, moisturizing, protecting, exfoliating, but above all adopting a healthy lifestyle: drinking enough water, eating a diet rich in antioxidants and vitamins, sleeping well, managing stress, practicing sports and incorporating draining massages for a natural glow.
It's also important to choose products suited to your skin type, without succumbing to the temptation to multiply brands. Consistency in a simple, effective routine is the key to visible, long-term results.

My favorite PERS product? Without a doubt, Sun Protection! I love its light texture, its effectiveness, its pleasant scent and its matte finish, which makes it an excellent make-up base. An indispensable part of my daily routine.
