Our skin changes all year round. According to the weather, the skin becomes oily, dry, or a combination. Knowing your skin best can work wonders for you in the future.
Spring calls for sunny days and airy nights. The skincare routines that may have worked well for you in the fall, need to be tweaked to fit spring’s needs. Before we go any further, note that sunscreen is a must. No matter the weather.
Here are some other tips to add to your daily routines to make sure your skin is taken care of this spring!
Tip #1
Exfoliation should be your best friend next to sunscreen. Exfoliation helps get rid of the dead skin cells. Despite the skin regenerating at speed, the winter often packs the dead skin on – to lay away the cold days.
Exfoliation gets rid of these cells and gives you a fresh look. Drawing a nice warm bath and using body scrubs from Lush, Neutrogena, Bath & Body works can work wonders to claim that glow back.
Note that body scrubs are much harder, so opt for softer ones for your face and exfoliate at least twice or thrice a week. In just a manner of days, you will see the difference. Trust us!
Tip #2
Often as we come out of the winter, we pack away the moisturizer as we do our coats and jackets. Moistures like sunscreen should be applied all year long. Moisture, like its name, helps lock in the natural oils which provides that young and fresh-looking skin.
Sure, as spring comes around, opting for a lighter moisturizer, often gel-based, may make you more comfortable and feel less oily. Some suggestions are:
- Clinique dramatically different hydrating jelly
- Tatcha the water cream
- Sephora collection all-day hydrator
Finding that perfect spring moisturizer will change your skin and leave it silky smooth.
Tip #3
Believe it or not, clean makeup brushes and applicators can have a huge impact. Often gathering all that makeup on top of each other can cause pimples and acne. This is a mistake that is often overlooked.
Having clean applicators all year around is better for your skin and for your makeup as well.
Tip #4
Exercise and Exercise! Whether it is jogging on the treadmill or strength training, get yourself moving. Exercise has proven to be beneficial for numerous things and of course, skin is part of it.
When you start breathing heavily, that’s when blood flow increases.
Make sure to use a cleanser before hopping into the shower. You will start noticing the change in just a few days!
Tip #5
Along with exercise, the complete package deal should be opting for a healthier lifestyle. This means more veggies and fruits.
Fruits and vegetables contain antioxidants that care for your skin without any added products.
Tip #6
A surprising tip is not to overly immerge yourself in products. Picking and choosing a handful that works wonders for you would be the best-case scenario.
Often, we apply hundreds of products without any result. Picking and choosing the best for your skin is ideal.
Taking care of our skin is something that needs to become a habit. Research what works best for you. Try a few different combinations, keep our tips in mind.
A healthy attitude and lifestyle are the number one thing, along with sunscreen that you should never forget!
