It's time to give our skincare routine a springtime refresh!
Winter's harsh conditions may have left your skin feeling dull and dry, but fear not! With the right spring skincare routine, you can welcome back that natural radiant glowing skin. Here are some tips to help you transition your skincare routine.
1. Hydration is Key:
Just as we transition our wardrobes from heavy layers to lighter fabrics, our skin also craves a change in hydration. Opt for lightweight moisturizers that provide ample hydration without feeling heavy on the skin. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid and glycerin to lock in moisture and keep your skin plump and dewy. Not sure what moisturizer is best for you? Begin with Skin MedSpa carries top of the line skincare products, and we would love to help you find a moisturizer that best suits your skin type.
2. Sun Protection:
Many of us love the longer days for the sunshine, but we often underestimate the intensity of the UV rays. It's crucial to amp up your sun protection game. Here at Begin with Skin MedSpa, we remind our clients to pick a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30. Remember to apply it generously to all exposed areas of your skin, including your face, neck, and hands, and reapply every two hours when spending time outdoors.
3. Gentle Exfoliation:
Say farewell to winter's buildup of dead skin cells by incorporating gentle exfoliation into your skincare routine. Opt for exfoliating cleansers or chemical exfoliants containing ingredients like alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) to slough away dead skin cells, revealing a smoother, more radiant complexion. However, be mindful not to over-exfoliate, as it can strip the skin of its natural oils and lead to irritation.
4. Brightening Serums:
Give your skin a boost of radiance with a brightening cream or serum infused with vitamin C. This powerhouse ingredients help to even out skin tone, reduce the appearance of dark spots, and give a luminous glow. Incorporate vitamin C into your daily skincare routine after cleansing and before moisturizing for maximum efficacy.
5. Spring Clean Your Makeup Bag:
Just as you spring clean your home, it's essential to declutter your makeup bag and switch out any expired products. Opt for lightweight, breathable formulas that won't clog pores or weigh down your skin. Consider swapping heavy foundations for tinted moisturizers or BB creams for a more natural, fresh-faced look. Oh and if your beauty blender or blush brush have not been deep cleaned in quite some time, this is your reminder.
With these essential spring skincare tips, you can say goodbye to winter woes and welcome the spring season with a fresh, radiant complexion. Remember, Begin with Skin MedSpa is here to help you by providing a complimentary skincare consultation. Give us a call if you need help adjusting your skincare routine. Cheers to spring and all the beauty it brings!
