Welcome to longer and brighter days as we move into lovely spring weather. Sun worshippers can rejoice and relax in the warmth of the season. Balancing the transition from winter to spring means being aware of the changes warmer weather brings. Allergies can be irritating, sun exposure will increase, and eating habits often shift from heartier winter fare to fresh spring vegetables.
Skincare needs to change with the seasons due to shifts in environmental conditions, like temperature, humidity, and sun exposure.
When we are in colder months, the air tends to be drier, which can lead to skin dehydration. We recommend using more emollient moisturizers to lock in moisture and prevent dryness. However, lighter moisturizers and hydrating serums are recommended as we transition into warmer months.
Cleansing: During the warmer months, when sweat and oil production increase, you might need to cleanse your skin more frequently to remove excess oils, sweat, and dirt. Our Balancing Cleanser is ideal for this.
Exfoliation: Exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells, revealing smoother, brighter skin.
In summer, when oil production may be higher, you might need more frequent exfoliation to prevent clogged pores. Hydrafacials are essential to clear, healthy, and balanced skin.
Nutritive Serums and Treatments: You may adjust the type or frequency of your treatments. We recommend more hydrating serums or products containing hyaluronic acid or ceramides in winter to combat dryness. When transitioning to spring and summer, focus on lightweight, antioxidant-rich serums to protect against environmental damage.
Diet and Hydration: Remember that skincare isn’t just about what you apply topically. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water and eating a balanced diet of fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats to support overall skin health. Try to incorporate a pre- and pro-biotic for gut health, essential for overall health.
Adjusting your skincare routine based on seasonal changes will keep your skin healthy, protected, and balanced.
