Three ways to freshen up your skincare routine for Spring

Posted by Dr Munir Somji on

As the days get longer and the temperatures warm up, our skin's needs shift too. Just as we swap heavy coats for lighter layers in Spring, our skin benefits from a seasonal transition. Warmer weather brings increased humidity, more sun exposure and a change in how our skin produces oil and retains moisture. Failing to adapt our skincare to these changes can lead to congestion, dehydration and heightened sensitivity.

From adjusting your moisturiser to ramping up sun protection, here’s how to transition your routine for healthier skin this season.

Exfoliate and refresh

A build-up of dry and dead skin cells during the winter months can make the complexion appear dull and lacklustre. Spring is the ideal time to refresh and refine the skin with gentle exfoliation. Our multi-tasking Detoxifying Charcoal Cleanser is packed with Japanese binchotan charcoal and kaolin clay, which work to gently mop up excess oil and decongest the skin, leaving it feeling smoother and brighter. It also contains prebiotics to balance the skin’s microbiome, which can become compromised during the harsh winter months, plus water-binding prickly pear, moringa seed oil and babassu oil seed extracts keep skin nourished. With daily use, expect softer, more radiant skin - perfect for that natural glow we all crave.

Sunscreen – a year-round essential

As we start spending more time outdoors, protecting the skin from harmful UV rays is non-negotiable. UV rays can harm the skin even on cloudy and cool days, so daily SPF application is essential, especially if you find yourself outside more often. For top-tier protection, try our Vitamin C Daily Defence Moisturiser SPF50. This lightweight, broad-spectrum sunscreen shields against both UVA and UVB rays, while offering hydration. It’s also fortified with vitamin C to help revive a dull complexion, so you can enter Spring glowing.

Lighten up your moisturiser

During the colder months, dehydrated skin may have been craving thicker creams to combat dryness. But as Spring arrives, those same moisturisers can start to feel too heavy, leaving the skin greasy rather than nourished.

Now is the perfect time to switch to a lighter formula - one that still provides hydration, but absorbs quickly, keeping skin feeling fresh and nourished. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid or glycerine to lock in moisture without weighing the skin down.

Our powerhouse Signature Serum is supercharged with over 15 active ingredients, including gentle, encapsulated vitamin A to address signs of ageing, vitamin C derived from Korean green tangerine exosomes to soothe inflammation and provide antioxidant benefits, plus vitamin E to fight oxidative stress and boost skin plumpness. It’s also the perfect base for make-up.

By making these small seasonal tweaks, you’ll keep your skin healthy and glowing.
