5 Terrific Winter-to-Spring Tips

As we say goodbye to the Winter season and hello to Spring, there are important beauty tips and tricks to keep in mind to ensure your beauty regimen continues to thrive through the transitioning seasons. Harsh weather conditions in the winter can bring anyone’s skin woes, so as the first bud of spring blooms there are a few things to keep in mind. Here are my Winter to Spring beauty tips to ensure vibrant flawless skin.

  Do not forget your sunscreen – This is not an option, but an essential everyday necessity, regardless of weather, to protect your skin from UV radiation. Also, contrary to popular belief, SPF ratings higher than 30 do not offer more protection and no sunscreen can block more than 97 percent of UV rays.

  Be sure to moisturize daily – Moisturizing your face will help you to look and feel younger, resulting in softer, more elastic skin… not to mention it will keep your skin hydrated.

  Wash your face every night – This is vital, as it removes not only makeup, but the dirt and dust that accumulates throughout the day. Outside elements as well as makeup clogs your pores with dirt, dust, smoke, etc. However, I suggest that soap-less cleansers are okay occasionally as they can act as cleansers with nondrying agents.

  Light Chemical peels can be great for the season change – There are lower UV levels during the winter, making it optimal for recovery and an ideal time to prepare your skin for the forthcoming spring season.

  Lastly, when it comes to makeup, less is more – People often tend to overdo it on the winter.  Heavy foundation, mascara, and lipstick often ages women.
