Welcome Spring by Switching Up Your Skincare Routine

Although it might not seem like it in some parts of the country, spring is on its way. That means in a few weeks or days (depending on when you’re reading this) the sun will be shining into the evening and the temperatures will reach well above freezing. To celebrate the changing of the season and to ensure that your skin is healthy, glowing, and clear all spring and summer long, it’s time to make some changes to your skincare routine. 

Here are a few simple tips that will help get your skin ready for the warmer months ahead. 

Exfoliate Winter Away

The nasty winter weather can cause a buildup of dead skin cells, and the only way to start your spring skincare routine off right is to scrub away the remnants of the past season. Exfoliating is an excellent way to give your skin a fresh start for spring, and there are many options and methods available for exfoliating. With a high-quality body wash infused bath sponge, for instance, you can conveniently exfoliate your skin all while providing nourishment with the vitamins and nutrients found in the body wash. 

Lighten the Load

During the winter, just as you strap on warm boots and heavy jackets, your skincare routine probably features heavier lotions or creams and other skincare essentials. But once spring and the warmer temperatures arrive, you should switch over to lighter formulas. With higher humidity, heavier products can trap heat and moisture and even cause excessive oil production. So, switch to something lighter, and your skin will thank you.

Moisturize Your Way Into Spring

Cold weather and indoor heating are notoriously associated with dry air, which can wreak havoc on your skin. Even if you wear gloves, scarves, and do your best to bundle up, the dryness still goes skin deep. Once the gloves come off, it’s time to replenish your skin with a hydrating moisturizer. Look for one that does more than add moisture to your skin like a body soufflé that adds a shimmer to your skin and a sweet fragrance.

Bonus tip: Look for a bath sponge that has built-in body wash to cleanse and nourish your skin gently so you can get your daily skin nourishment while you shower for added convenience. 

Spring Clean Your Makeup Bag

We hate to add another to-do to your spring cleaning list, but as you're sorting through your closets and tidying up your home, go through your makeup bag and give your brushes, sponges, and other skincare essentials some love. Gently wash your brushes, sponges, and other tools with a proper cleanser, or replace when necessary, so they're fresh and ready for your springtime looks. 

Don’t Forget Your Sunscreen

Sunscreen and skincare products with added SPF are essential year-round, but once the weather warms up, they become crucial to skin health. Since the sun is shining more, you'll likely take advantage of it and start spending more time outside. Make sure that sunscreen is a staple of your daily skincare routine to protect your face and skin from the sun’s harmful rays.
