As spring arrives , the traces left by winter can be felt on the skin. The cold which attacks the epidermis, the high level of humidity or the wind and pollution are external factors which can damage our skin. This is not inevitable and restoring a healthy glow to your complexion is quite possible thanks to a skincare routine adapted to your skin type and with products that are also linked to the season.
Skincare routine: what steps to adopt?
make-up removal
To get a beauty routine off to a good start, make-up should be removed from the skin. Indeed, even if one does not make up or little; impurities partly due to pollution and ambient air settle and remain on the skin. Micellar water is a product that removes make-up and refreshes lightly.
Deep cleansing: exfoliation and mask
Several steps are necessary to have an impeccable result and radiant skin. First of all, it is necessary to eliminate the dead cells which are present on the skin and which accumulate as the day progresses. To effectively eliminate dead cells; a scrub adapted to the type of skin (normal, oily, dry, combination) can be carried out, up to twice a week. This scrub can be followed by a mask to thoroughly eliminate impurities and moisturize the skin. A scrub that revitalizes, purifies and energizes the skin is a good start in a spring beauty routine.
Hydration: serum and cream
Then, hydration is an essential step for all healthy skin. The creams used in winter can be rich, oilier, to protect the skin from bad weather and especially from the cold. When spring arrives, we can orient ourselves on a lighter, water-based cream. There are several textures of creams that can be used, depending on one’s preferences.
Before applying the moisturizer, for even greater effectiveness, a face serum can be used. Just like scrubs or moisturizers, several types of serum can be chosen: a serum for mature skin, a serum for problem skin like acne, an anti-wrinkle serum or even a serum for dehydrated skin that will be more concentrated in hyaluronic acid and which will allow a reduction in the sensitivity of the skin as well as a renewal of the natural hydration of the skin.
Good make-up practices
After a cleansed, dry and hydrated skin, it’s time to move on to make-up. In the spring, with a fresher face, make-up products can also be lightened. The complexion can therefore be made up with less covering products, such as a BB cream. The colors that we will choose for makeup can also vary, with more pink and warm shades for example. But as with the products that you select according to your skin type, makeup is also to be chosen according to your complexion, eye color and desire!
