Time to Refresh Your Skin for Spring
As the chill of winter fades and we welcome longer, sunnier days, many of us are updating our wardrobes and freshening up our homes. But have you thought about giving your skincare routine the same seasonal refresh?
Just like your clothes, your skin has different needs as the weather changes. The shift from cold, dry winter air to the warmth of spring can leave your complexion dull, flaky, and in need of a boost. That’s where exfoliation and hydration come in — two key steps to help your skin transition beautifully into the new season.
Why Switch Up Your Skincare Each Season?
Your skin’s needs evolve throughout the year. During winter, the harsh air and indoor heating often call for heavier moisturisers to lock in hydration and protect against dryness. As temperatures rise, those same products can start to feel too rich, leading to congestion and breakouts.
Updating your skincare routine for spring helps your skin breathe, rebalance, and renew. It’s all about removing what’s dull and dry, and embracing what’s fresh and bright — just like the season itself.
And that’s where gentle exfoliation plays a starring role.
Step 1: Reintroduce Facial Exfoliation
After months of battling winter dryness, your skin can feel rough or lacklustre. The first step in your spring skincare reset is to gently buff away those dead skin cells with a mild facial exfoliator.
Choose a product that’s kind to the skin barrier — something with fine particles or natural enzymes that polish without stripping moisture. Regular exfoliation reveals brighter, smoother skin and helps your serums and moisturisers absorb more effectively.
Pro Tip: Stick to exfoliating once or twice a week, and always follow with a hydrating serum or moisturiser to keep your skin soft and balanced.
Step 2: Restore Hydration the Right Way
Once you’ve cleared away the old, it’s time to replenish what your skin really needs — hydration. Spring calls for lighter, breathable formulas that deliver moisture without feeling heavy or greasy.
Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, or niacinamide, which lock in hydration and protect your skin from environmental stress. A light hydrating lotion or emulsion can help your complexion feel refreshed and radiant throughout the day.
And don’t forget: hydration starts from the inside too. Drink plenty of water and protect your skin daily with SPF — even on cloudy spring days.
Step 3: Don’t Forget the Body
Your face isn’t the only area craving attention after a long winter. Skin on your body, especially around elbows, knees, and heels, can also become dry and dull.
A gentle body scrub helps buff away rough patches, revealing smoother, more even skin underneath. Choose a formula that’s enriched with natural oils or sugar-based exfoliants — they’ll slough off dead cells while keeping your skin nourished and soft.
Pro Tip: Use your body scrub in the shower 2–3 times per week for best results. Always follow with a moisturiser while your skin is still slightly damp to lock in hydration.
Step 4: Replenish and Glow
Once your skin is freshly exfoliated, it’s the perfect time to deeply moisturise. Use a nourishing body cream or whipped lotion to restore elasticity and give your skin that healthy, springtime glow.
Look for ingredients like coconut oil, shea butter, or aloe vera for long-lasting hydration. This step helps maintain smoothness, reduce flakiness, and prepare your skin to soak up that spring sunshine with confidence.
