You’ve probably been noticing the harsh effects of winter weather on the skin. If you’re struggling with dryness, cracked skin or irritation, it’s likely due to the cold, dry climate of the winter months. Don’t worry, though, there are plenty of options for restoring hydration to the skin and reversing the effects of winter weather. Below, we’ll take a look at how you can hydrate your skin just in time for spring!
1. Use Skin Care Products
Taking care of the skin doesn’t have to be complicated or inconvenient. In fact, you can hydrate the skin and reverse winter damage with just a handful of skincare products!
Moisturizer/Serum
The first step is getting a light moisturizer or a hydrating serum. These products can restore any hydration that the skin lost throughout the colder months. Ideally, you’d incorporate these products into your skincare routine throughout the winter season, which can help mitigate some of the damage you might experience. Start adding it to your routine for spring and be well-prepared for next winter!
Exfoliant
Exfoliation is an essential component to a complete skincare routine, as it removes dry, damaged skin from the surface and allows healthy skin to grow in its place. You may need to be careful when exfoliating in the winter, especially if your skin is sensitive, but this makes spring a great time to start. Follow up your exfoliation with a moisturizer, and you’ll notice great improvements in the skin.
Sunscreen
Lastly, don’t forget sunscreen as the weather starts to warm up! Sunlight is one of the biggest threats to skin health, and sunscreen is the best defense. If you’re planning to spend extended time outdoors, sunscreen is an absolute must. Find a sunscreen that is at least 30 SPF to protect yourself from sun damage!
2. Get Skin Rejuvenation Treatments
After incorporating skincare products into your daily routine, you may want to consider some skin rejuvenation treatments to enhance your skin health even further.
