How to prolong your tan: a few simple and effective tips for golden skin, even in Autumn.

The beloved tan that we have enjoyed during our days at the beach or in the mountains, has a limited lifespan. When we come back from our holidays we know that, in a fortnight, our golden tan will start to fade a little at a time, leaving us with our original paler colour.

Once back in town, there are a few things we can do to make our tan last a few more days and to make us feel like we’re still on holiday. The products of the Body Insight line will also help us. Let’s get started!

Keyword: Hydration

Drinking plenty of water can help keep you hydrated, and if your body is sufficiently hydrated, your skin will benefit too. Green tea, freshly squeezed juices and flavoured waters are also perfect, as they also help to replenish valuable vitamins and minerals.

For more intense hydration, it is essential to use a body cream or lotion to ensure that we keep our skin supple and intact, preserving our tan.

The Power of a Good Exfoliation

In addition to moisturising, regular exfoliation, both before and after sun exposure, is a great way to get rid of dead skin cells and ensure an even and long-lasting tan. Choosing the right scrub is important: a scrub that is too aggressive will leave the skin with micro-scratches and small lesions, but if it is too mild, it will not be able to exfoliate adequatedly. That’s why,  Insight has formulated a body scrub with particles of grounded rose quartz and cherry kernel for a gentle, natural exfoliating action. These particles are suspended in a nourishing formula that promotes hydration and elasticity, and prepares the skin to absorb all the subsequent hydration.

To give your complexion a boost, you can apply a few drops of self-tanner into your moisturiser to develop a gradual and even golden hue, day after day.

Things to Avoid

On the contrary, there are things to avoid, which could have the opposite effect on our tan:

  • Indulge in long hot baths. Indulging in long hot baths. It’s certainly a relaxing habit, but doing it too consistently could have a damaging effect on the skin. The ideal thing to do is to opt for quick showers in lukewarm water, to avoid stressing the skin and damaging the hydrolipidic film which protects it;  
  • Cleansing products that contain aggressive surfactants can irritate the skin and cause widespread redness and discomfort. The ideal is to choose a shower gel that contains effective but more delicate surfactants, such as Insight Body Cleanser, a dermocompatible cleanser rich in moisturising, antioxidant and soothing ingredients, dermatologically tested on sensitive skin and ICEA Eco Bio Certified.  
  • Expose to the sun wirhout protection. Although it may feel like we are tanning more quickly, exposing ourselves to the sun without adequate protection can have harmful effects on our skin and health. Skin exposed to UV rays without a sun protection also ages faster, due to the oxidative stress it undergoes. 

Diet can Help

Incorporating seasonal fruit and vegetables into our diet is a great way to get your fill of vitamins and minerals that help you get an even and long-lasting tan. Radicchio, pumpkin, melon, cherries, tomatoes… a balanced diet that follows the seasonality of the products is an excellent choice from many points of view, and from today we give you one more reason!

Find out in 9 steps how to protect your hair from the cold and damp during the coldest and harshest days of winter.

Winter is a fascinating season, but it can be a challenge for the beauty of your hair. The cold, damp air can cause excessive damage, leading to dry, frizzy, and difficult-to-manage hair. Here are 9 tips to protect your hair and maintain a flawless style even on the coldest days.

1. HYDRATION

Cold weather can deprive hair of its natural moisture. Discover Insight’s Anti-Frizz line of nourishing products and supplement a moisturizing routine with Shampoo, Conditioner and Mask that will help maintain your hair’s softness and shine.

2. THERMAL PROTECTION

Heat tools such as hairdryers and straighteners can contribute to further damage to your hair during winter. Before using them, always apply a heat protectant to reduce heat damage.

3. REGULAR CUT

Maintaining a manageable length is essential during the winter. A regular cut will help prevent split ends and maintain healthy hair.

4. HATS AND SCARVES

Wearing hats, caps or scarves not only adds style to your winter outfit, but also protects your hair from cold winds and moisture.

5. GENTLE DRYING

Let your hair dry naturally or choose a hair dryer temperature that is not too high. Excessive heat can deprive your hair of its natural moisture.

6. DEDICATED PRODUCTS

If your hair is drier than in the warmer months, and you notice it is dehydrated and dull, use dedicated products as soon as possible to help it renew in anticipation of spring. Discover Insight’s dedicated products for dry, dehydrated hair.

7. HEALTHY DIET

A balanced diet is essential for healthy hair. Make sure you eat foods rich in nutrients such as vitamins and proteins.

8. BEWARE OF HOT WATER

Washing your hair with water that is too hot can cause dryness and damage it further. Opt for lukewarm or cold water when washing.

9. PROFESSIONAL ADVICE

An experienced hairdresser can advise you on the best products and practices to maintain the health of your hair during the winter, especially if they use certified, effective and safe products such as all the products in the Insight Professional Hair Care range.

Raise your hand if you have a thick lock of curly hair and are satisfied with the products you use and the result obtained. This article is dedicated to you curly ones, clients who are often misunderstood and ill-advised: we want to take care of your “crown”.

We assume that the term “curly hair” actually embraces different types of hair, which need extremely different products. What are the steps to follow in the daily routine to enhance the shape and texture of waves and curls? What are the most suitable products for this hair category? 

The keyword is to moisturise: never give up on conditioner or mask, but it is also important to nourish the hair with specific sprays, avoiding alcohol-based formulations.

Another recommended technique for obtaining perfect curls is to apply styling products to very wet hair. The curl is formed during drying: the slower the drying, the better. Choosing the right product, based on the type of curl, is not easy, but neither is it impossible. 

INSIGHT has created a line dedicated to all the needs of curly hair. Discover Elasti-Curl and reactivate your curls!

We live in a time when ethical choices are no longer just an optional extra, but an urgent necessity. Climate change challenges us to make conscious choices, and this is surely true in the world of beauty. 

If you want a lifestyle in which the well-being of your body and hair can embrace the health of the planet and the community, then our Ethical products is the answer you are looking for, so you can embrace your well-being and that of the planet we live on.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT PRODUCTS

For an increasingly attentive and aware consumer, it is important to read product labels and inquire about ingredients and packaging quality. Especially when it comes to cosmetic products that come into direct contact with a person’s skin and hair. See below five characteristics of INSIGHT’s ethical products;

1.) International Certifications


Lines such as Sensitive and Lenitive have Cosmos Natural certification, while the Skin and Man lines boast ICEA Eco Bio certification. The Vegan OK certification of all products promotes the use of vegetable components, avoiding those of animal origin.

 

2.) Raw materials of natural origin


Thanks to constant effort to improve our formulas and production processes, and work on reducing our impact. INSIGHT’s formulas contain a high percentage of ingredients of vegetable origin. Up to 98% for the Sensitive and Lenitive lines certified Cosmos Natural, guaranteeing effectiveness and respect for the environment.

 

3.) Ozonated water without chemical residues


The innovative “ozonation” process used by INSIGHT makes mains water a suitable ingredient for cosmetic products. This eliminates viruses and bacteria without releasing chemical residues into the environment.

 

4.) Sustainable palm oil


INSIGHT’s participation in the RSPO (Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil) programme includes the use of Certified sustainable palm oil in its products because this helps avoid uncontrolled palm oil production, and as a result is endangering rainforests.

 

5.) CO2 Neutral Company

Real changes, starts with our daily actions. Which is why INSIGHT reduces its environmental impact with responsible, green practices. An example? All the energy used comes from renewable sources or photovoltaic panels.

Perfect Shave? Easy with the right products

Perfect Shave? Easy with the right products

If you are looking for a perfect shave, discover Insight MAN, our product range dedicated to men care, effective and ICEA certified.

A well-maintained, thick beard can give your face an elegant manly appearance, and is also a trendy and highly sought-after look. But at the same time, a well-shaved face has its advantages: the structure of the face is clearly visible, our general look appears more refined, and last but not least, we do not have to wait for its regrowth and constantly take care of it, to ensure that it stays healthy and disciplined.

Insight has created the Man line to cater to the specific needs of skin and beard. A line of ICEA Eco Bio certified products, with delicate and respectful formulas, which take care of the skin’s hydrolipidic barrier. Among all the products of the Man line, today we want to talk about the shaving products.

How to get a perfect shave?

Before we start, two quick tips to optimise the shaving process and achieve better results:

  • The best time to shave is in the morning, right after cleansing your face with a dedicated cleanser, to remove excess sebum produced during the night. Your skin and your face features are more relaxed in the morning, this will help you achieve a better, closer shave;
  •  If your beard is particularly long, you can trim it with scissors to give you more control when shaving.

    Two products that can’t miss in everyone’s shaving kit are a good soap and a pre-shave oil. Both products are part of the Insight Man’s range

    Soap For Shaving

    A soap formulated to shave even the thickest and more coarse beards, thanks to its formula rich in emollient and conditioning ingredients. It contains organic date extract, organic fenugreek extract and organic aloe vera juice, for a gentle calming and soothing action on the skin plus an optimal shave.

    This Cosmos Natural certified formula contains 99.99% ingredients of natural origin. The fragrance in the formula is 100% natural derived. Nickel tested (< 0.5 ppm).

    Key Ingredients

    • Organic date extract
    • Organic fenugreek extract
    • Organic aloe vera juice

    How to use

    1. Apply the Shaving Soap in the morning, after rinsing the face with warm water to favor the dilation of the pores and reduce the risk of irritation
    2. Dampen a shaving brush with hot water and pass it over the soap, until it forms a creamy lather
    3. Apply the foam formed on the beard with the brush
    4. Proceed with shaving

    Multifunction Beard Oil

    Beard- multifunctional oil A multitasking product, which can be used both as a conditioning treatment for the beard, and as Protective oil for the pre-shave skin for pre-shave.

    Its formula, certified ICEA ECO BIO Cosmetics, contains organic extract of date , organic oil of sunflower and organic oil of sweet almond for an effective protective and nourishing action.

    This product is nickel tested (& lt; 0.5 ppm) and dermatologically tested on sensitive skin, to ensure greater safety during use.

    Key Ingredients

    • Organic date extract
    • Organic sunflower oil
    • Organic sweet almond oil

    How to use

    1. Apply a few drops on the face before shaving, emulsifying with warm water, to create a protective barrier on the skin and avoid irritation during shaving
    2. Proceed with shaving

    Insight Tips :

    To take advantage of its softening and conditioning properties, apply a few drops on the beard and massage to allow the oil to be absorbed.

The Body Routine for a Toned and Even Skin

The Body Routine for a Toned and Even Skin

Want to know the perfect body routine for your daily care during the winter? Consistency really makes all the difference!

Good habits have been known to make a difference only when applied consistently. Yet, we often lose interest in a practice when we don’t see immediate results, and we abandon it after a few initial attempts. But as with all things, patience and consistency always pay off, especially when it comes to body care.

A regular body routine, using the right products will bring its results after a few weeks: the skin on the body will appear more toned, hydrated and firm, especially during the winter months, when dehydration and dryness are always around the corner.

The steps to follow are not many, and simpler than you may think. Let’s go through them together!

The ideal body routine starts with exfoliation

Whether it’s a scrub, a peel, mitt or brush, the goal is always the same: exfoliate. There are many ways to get rid of dead cells sitting on the surface of the epidermis, and make room for new ones, rediscovering brighter, firmer and more even skin. 

  • Body Scrub. Probably the best known and most widely used option. It consists of a cream that contains suspended particles with mildly abrasive power, which are able to remove the surface layer of dead cells from the epidermis. These particles can consist of sugar, oat or almond powder, or cherry kernel and quartz powder, as in the INSIGHT Body Scrub, the perfect product for gentle but effective exfoliation.
     
  • Dry Brushing. This is a practice that involves brushing the body with a special brush with semi-hard bristles to promote microcirculation, oxygenate the tissues and at the same time perform a gentle “dry” exfoliation of the body. It is recommended to do this operation in the morning, perhaps before showering, on dry skin, so as to awaken circulation after the night hours.
     
  • Chemical exfoliation. Performs the same function as mechanical exfoliation, but instead of doing it by friction, it does so through the action of chemical molecules. The most commonly used exfoliants for this purpose are certain fruit acids, such as glycolic acid or lactic acid, which help speed up cell turnover. Another ingredient also increasingly used for body products is retinol. Within lotions or cleansers, it helps eliminate the topmost layer of the epidermis, improving and evening out the skin’s texture and complexion.

     

Step 2: An invigorating shower

After exfoliating, it’s time for a nice invigorating shower. Choose an effective but gentle cleanser, and prefer lukewarm showers to long, hot baths, which could weaken the skin barrier in the long run.

Looking for a shower cleanser with a gentle formula that will leave your skin cleansed and hydrated? INSIGHT has created a body cleanser formulated with non-ethoxylated surfactants. What this means is that its formula is more gentle and highly dermocompatible. It also contains plant-derived glycerin and skin-friendly ingredients to reduce any irritation caused by cleansing.

Next stop: Hydration station!

Moisturising your body’s skin after a shower is crucial to keeping it supple and healthy. Choose a moisturising cream or lotion, depending on your needs or preferences. If your body skin feels particularly dry and tight after showering, it means it needs a little extra nourishment. In this case, prefer creamy and nourishing consistencies, with a soothing and comforting action on the skin. If, on the other hand, your skin is normal, you can choose a lighter and fast-absorbing lotion, even with a liquid texture.

Extra pampering for dry areas

The skin of elbows, knees, feet, needs more nourishment than the rest of the body. They are notoriously drier areas and subjected to more friction, so it’s a good habit to dedicate an extra care to them. To do this we can choose a nourishing body butter, or an oil with nourishing and protective properties. These few steps, repeated consistently, will help to keep the skin toned and compact. Try it to believe it!

Environment and Sustainability!

Environment and Sustainability!

The environment is a serious issue, and everyone must do their part. We believe in the need to be committed to the environment and to promoting lifestyles that respect people and natural resources.

Effective, Ecological & Safe 

Our formulas do not contain SLS/SLES, mineral oils, petrolatum, silicones, parabens or synthetic dyes, & instead use organic ingredients. A choice that stems from the desire to offer quality, natural and above all, clean products.

In INSIGHT’s ethical cosmetics, ingredients of natural origin and phyto-extracts of controlled origin find their place, best of what nature and technology can offer, when used with awareness and respect. All our formulas contain ozonated water, which is microbiologically pure water because it is enriched with ozone, a molecule with oxidizing and disinfecting powers that does not release chemical residues.

Sustainability

Sustainability for INSIGHT Professional is not a given forever, but a path of permanent updating. From 2013 to the present, we have worked hard to obtain a whole series of company and product certifications. Achieved thanks to a constant desire to improve cosmetic formulas, optimise production processes and make the environmental impact of our activities ever smaller, to the point of bringing it to zero. 

We are a Carbon Neutral certified company, which means zeroing or offsetting CO2 emissions. All products are Vegan OK certified, and some also have Eco Bio Cosmetics, Cosmos Natural or RSPO – Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil certification.


However, our commitment does not end there. Our packaging is made of 100% post-consumer recycled plastic and essential, meaning no cardboard cases. This choice, too, has allowed us to minimise CO2 emissions and use materials from renewable sources, differentiating and renewing the pack after using the product and, in fact, promoting that circular economy concept we are so fond of.

We know that this journey is not over, and therein lies our strengths. Being aware of the need for a momentous change in the way we produce, distribute and sell and equally aware that we have never reached the top, as we are constantly working to improve even more. The 2023-2024 biennium will allow us to add more important pieces to our mosaic of meaningful gestures that defend the environment, day by day and step by step to do our part to promoting lifestyles that respect people and natural resources.
 

There is one planet Earth. One, and it is not inexhaustible. We must care for it and not exploit it. We must defend it because we are not the owners of it, but the hosts who have a duty to leave it in trust for future generations.
