More about A Hint of Summer - The Classic
Effect
A Hint of Summer gives you the feeling of summer all year round. Its natural DHA molecule creates a glow when it reacts with the peptides and amino acids that make up the epidermis, your upper layer of skin. At the same time, organic aloe vera soothes, restores and maintains the skin's moisture balance while açai extract strengthens and protects the skin.
Fragrance
A Hint of Summer has a discreet and delicate scent which derives from the natural ingredients it consists of – together with Rudolph Care's natural signature scent.
Consistency
Light and liquid.
Certifications

Use A Hint of Summer - The Classic
In the palm of your hand, mix a few pumps of A Hint of Summer with your face cream or body lotion/oil. Use the same amount of cream/oil as usual and add 1-3 pumps for the face and 4-6 pumps for the body. Apply over your face and/or body. Pay extra attention around eyebrows (especially if your brows are light), the jawline, hairline, elbows, knees and ankles. You can remove any excess product with a damp cloth. Wash your hands thoroughly afterwards. Allow the product to absorb and dry completely before getting dressed and going about your day.
Hands and feet: A tip to create a smooth and even transition to hands and feet is to mix a single pump together with hand cream or body lotion. Apply the mixture to the hands and feet, avoiding your nails. Any residue can be removed with a damp washcloth.
Follow up
The glow builds gradually and is noticeable after a few hours. Repeat the same routine for 2-3 days, depending on your current skin tone and desired result. If necessary, take a break for 2-3 days before resuming the routine.
