Transition Your Skin Care Routine To Warmer Weather
1. Exfoliation
The winter weather can cause us to experience dry and flaky skin due to the harsh cold. However, with the Spring season approaching, it is the best time to start exfoliating. Exfoliation has many benefits such as: smoothing out our skin barrier, increase circulation, unclogging pores, reducing acne, etc. If you weren't already, add exfoliating into your skin care regime; you can do this in the morning or as a part of your night skin care routine if you tend to redden easily.
Try Vivier's Vitamin C Scrub! This revitalizing medical grade face and body scrub that gently exfoliates dead skin cells refining skin texture leaving skin feeling soft, toned and vibrant.
2. Upgrade Your SPF
As a skin care clinic, we will never advocate skipping this step in your skin care regime. Now that spring is almost here, it is time to remind everyone to always wear your sunscreen! Upgrade your SPF and prep your skin for the warmer weather and sunny days. Wearing sunscreen is the best and easiest way to protect your skin's barrier, benefits include reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, skin discolouration, age and sunspots, hyperpigmentation, etc.
Try Colorescience Flex Protection SPF 50 for a tinted colour coverage that immediately evens skin tone for a flawless look.
3. Switch Up Your Moisturizer
We all love a good moisturizer that keeps our skin intact during the cold. Since it plays an important role in our skin care routine, it is best to switch up your options during the different seasons. But, while heavy creams may feel great on the outside, it is not ideal for the warmer weather. As the temperature rises, look to switching over to a lighter moisturizer that will do the job without leaving your skin feeling greasy or sticky from the heavy creams and lotions.
Try Colorescience's Total Eye Firm and Repair Cream. This luxuriously balmy formula with powerful humectants deliver rich moisture to skin's surface and replenish hydration within to improve skin barrier health.
Spring Care Tips For Healthy, Glowy Skin
1. Hydration
Drink. Your. Water! Did you forget to drink your water today? Do it, right now! Your skin will thank you. Besides keeping your body hydrated, water works to keep your skin refreshed and helps maintain your skin's elasticity. It is a simple, yet effect way to improve health, skin clarity, and provide your skin with a glowy look heading into the Spring season and should always play a part in your beauty skin care routine.
2. Clean Your Makeup Brushes
Alongside your skin care routine will come your makeup routine. This is another important factor to look out for as we tend to forget that our MAKEUP BRUSHES can contribute to unwanted breakouts, clogging pores, disturbing our skin barrier, etc. It is recommended to wash your makeup brushes weekly or 7-10 days at least as makeup brushes can build up bacteria.
3. Face Masks + Chemical Peels
The best way to add refreshment to your skin and give you the glowy look that you desire would be using Face Masks or scheduling a peel! Face masks lock in the moisture and ingredients into the skin which will create hydration and an incredible way to prime before makeup application. As for Chemical Peels, they work to reduce skin imperfections; improve fine lines, wrinkles, acne, scars, etc. We recommend doing a face mask once a week and chemical peels once a month.
