Spring in the air: tips for an updated beauty routine
With the arrival of spring, not only do the flowers and temperatures change, but our skin also needs appropriate care. After the dry and cold winter months, it is time to refresh and brighten our skin. Here are some tips for adapting your skincare routine to the new season.
Cleaning
Start your spring skincare routine with a mild cleanser that removes dirt, oil and impurities without drying out the skin. Choose a cleanser suitable for your skin type, whether it is a gel, foam or milky cleanser.
Exfoliate
After winter, our skin can feel dull and flaky. Introduce a gentle exfoliant into your routine to remove dead skin cells and stimulate cell renewal. Choose an exfoliant with fruit acids or enzymes for a mild but effective exfoliation.
Serums
Serums contain concentrated ingredients to address specific skin problems. In spring, you can use serums that focus on hydration, brightness and free radical protection. Look for serums with ingredients such as vitamin C, hyaluronic acid and antioxidants.
Ingredients
Choose light, hydrating ingredients that nourish the skin without weighing it down. Consider ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, aloe vera and niacinamide to soothe, hydrate and protect the skin.
Day cream
Remember to protect your skin from harmful UV rays even when the sun is not shining brightly. Use sunscreen with a broad-spectrum SPF (protection against both UVA and UVB rays) to protect your skin from premature aging and sun damage. Choose a lightweight formula that absorbs quickly and does not leave a greasy residue.
Night cream
At night, our skin has a chance to repair and regenerate. Use a nourishing night cream to hydrate and nourish your skin while you sleep. Choose a rich formula with ingredients such as retinol, peptide complexes, niacinamide and ceramides to improve skin elasticity and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
Sunglasses
Sun strength is getting stronger in the coming period so protect your eyes! Wear sunglasses in the car, on the patio or while walking. This largely protects the thinner skin around the eyes from UV rays but also from being squeezed shut. This will save you some crow’s feet in the future.
Adapting your skincare routine to spring is essential to keeping your skin healthy, hydrated and radiant. By cleansing, exfoliating, using serums and choosing the right ingredients, you can prepare your skin for the new season. Remember to wear a broad-spectrum SPF daily to protect your skin from harmful UV rays and enjoy the fresh spring air with glowing skin!
