It’s time to say goodbye to harsh winter conditions and hello to the warmer weather that’s just on the horizon, and in turn, reveal your naturally beautiful skin (with a little springtime preparation, that is). Read on for our top tips to ensure your skin is refreshed and summer ready…
Exfoliate
Don’t go too overboard with scrubbing your skin but weekly exfoliation is a good rule of thumb. Exfoliation keeps your pores clean and stops them from getting clogged up with dirt and bacteria. Use lukewarm water and muslin cloth over the skin in circular motions for best results.
Sun protection
Premature ageing, skin cancer and unsightly sun spots – there’s so many reasons to keep covered up. Be sure to use an SPF 50+, which will keep your skin protected from the sun for long periods of time. If you do plan on a swim, make sure your SPF is water-resistant – it can wash off!
Stay hydrated
Having fabulous skin on the outside is, in part, related to keeping hydrated on the inside. As the weather warms up, increase your water intake – especially if you workout each day. By far the cheapest, easiest and best way to keep your skin looking it’s best is to drink up.
Moisturise, moisturise, moisturise
A good moisturiser as part of your skincare regimen is absolutely essential! Of course, the Skin Smoothing moisturising cream is ideal for all skin types and give your skin the hydration and glow it needs to shine right into summer!
