The flowers are blooming, the weather is warming, and we're swapping our heavy coats for lighter layers. Spring is officially here and we are ready for a refresh, especially when it comes to our skincare products. Read on to learn how we're changing up our routine to prepare for the months ahead.

 

Lighten up your hydration

During the dry, cold winter months, layering on those heavy creams, lotions, serums, and oils is essential to keeping your skin moisturized. But with the warmer weather and more humidity in the air, it's time to lighten up your routine. Our Freeze-Dried Hyaluronic Acid is the perfect way to get nourishing hydration without anything heavy on your face. Follow up with a light water-based moisturizer to seal it in.  

 

Upgrade your sunscreen

You should be wearing sunscreen all year long, but when the weather starts getting warmer and we're spending more time outside  it’s important to step up your sunscreen use by using a one with an SPF of at least 50 and that has broad-spectrum protection.

Embrace exfoliation

Exfoliating is key to transforming your dull winter skin and getting back that glow. A chemical exfoliant like glycolic acid is a great way to slough off dead skin cells and unblock pores after months of dry, flaky skin and heavy lotions. When adding exfoliation back into your routine, start incorporating it once a week to avoid irritation. 

 Add antioxidants

When you spend more time in the sun, you’re more exposed to UV rays, which can cause hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and other types of sun damage. Protect your skin from damaging free radicals, which can increase the breakdown of collagen and elastin, by amping up your topical antioxidant use. Our Freeze-Dried Hyaluronic Acid Anti-Aging System is packed with ingredients that contain powerful antioxidants like tocopherol, pomegranate, purslane, and white mulberry.
