As the seasons change, so too should your skincare and makeup routine. During the winter, our skin tends to be more dry and dull, while in the spring, we may experience more oiliness and breakouts. In this blog post, we’ll discuss how to transition your skincare and makeup routine from winter to spring, so that you can look and feel your best all season long.
During the winter, it’s important to use a heavy, hydrating moisturizer to combat dryness. However, as the weather warms up, you may find that your skin is producing more oil, making a heavy moisturizer unnecessary. Switch to a lighter, oil-free moisturizer such as SkinMedica Ultra Sheer Moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated without clogging pores.
During the winter, our skin can become dry and flaky, so exfoliating once or twice a week is important to remove dead skin cells and promote cell turnover. As we move into spring, continue to exfoliate regularly to keep your skin smooth and radiant. Our Pick: 100% Pure Matcha Oat Face Scrub.
Serums can be a great addition to your skincare routine during the spring. They provide hydration without feeling heavy on the skin. Look for serums with hyaluronic acid such as 100% Pure Rose Hyaluronic Acid Serum, which helps to retain moisture in the skin.
Toners can help to balance the pH of your skin and remove any remaining impurities after cleansing. During the spring, it’s important to keep your skin balanced, so consider adding a toner such as ESPA Hydrating Floral Spa-Fresh Tonic to your routine.
As the weather warms up, it’s important to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Switch to a moisturizer with SPF like EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 or use a separate sunscreen to protect your skin.
A face mist can help refresh and hydrate your skin throughout the day. Look for a mist with soothing ingredients like aloe vera or rosewater like 100% Pure Rose Water Face Mist to help calm any redness or irritation.
As the weather gets warmer, it’s easy to forget to drink enough water. However, staying hydrated is crucial for healthy skin. Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day, and incorporate hydrating foods like watermelon, cucumbers, and berries into your diet.
In the winter, we may need a heavier foundation to cover up dry, flaky skin. As we move into spring, switch to a lightweight tinted moisturizer like 100% Pure Fruit Pigmented® Tinted Moisturizer to even out your skin tone without feeling heavy.
In the winter, we tend to opt for more neutral or muted blush shades. In the spring, add a pop of color to your cheeks with a bright pink or coral shade like Perricone MD No Makeup Blush.
During the spring, consider using bright, bold colors on your eyes. Opt for shades of blue, green, and purple to add a pop of color to your look. Our Pick: Wander Beauty Wanderess Escape Eyeshadow Palette.
Dark, vampy lips are perfect for winter, but as we move into spring, switch to a lighter, more vibrant lip color like the ones available in Chantecaille Wild Meadows Lip Chic. Opt for a coral or pink shade to brighten up your look.
During the spring, you can play around with different lip finishes to create different looks. Try a glossy or satin finish for a fresh, youthful look, or a matte finish for a more sophisticated look.
As the weather gets warmer, we may find ourselves sweating more, which can cause mascara to smudge. Switch to a waterproof mascara like DHC Mascara Perfect Pro Double Protection – Black to prevent smudging and ensure your makeup stays in place all day.
In addition to using sunscreen, consider using a setting spray with SPF to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Our Pick: Kate Somerville UncompliKated SPF Soft Focus Makeup Setting Spray Broad Spectrum SPF 50.
Overall, transitioning your skincare and makeup routine from winter to spring is all about adjusting to the changing needs of your skin. Keep these tips in mind as you switch up your routine, and you’ll be sure to look and feel your best all season long.
