Spring skincare routine: revive your skin after winter!

Winter is a challenging time for our skin - cold temperatures, dry indoor air and lack of sunlight can leave it dehydrated, dull and more sensitive. With the arrival of spring, however, we are given the opportunity for regeneration and renewal to give our skin back its freshness, elasticity and healthy glow.

SPRING SKINCARE ROUTINE - WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?

• The weather and skin's needs are changing - the colder months called for thicker creams and more intense protection against dryness, but with the arrival of warmer days, skin needs lighter hydration and increased protection from UV rays.
• Detox and regenerate - after winter, skin can be weighed down by impurities and dead skin cells, so it's important to engage in gentle exfoliation and nourishment.
• Protection from pigmentation and premature ageing - the sun's intensity increases in spring, which means that daily SPF use is a must if we want to prevent pigment spots and wrinkles.
• Hydration as the key to healthy skin - if skin suffers from water loss after winter, it can become more sensitive, prone to irritation and loss of elasticity. A spring routine is the ideal way to replenish the necessary nutrients.

SPRING SKINCARE ROUTINE - BASIC STEPS

Spring skincare doesn't have to be complicated, but it should include the basic steps: gentle cleansing, exfoliation, intense hydration, nourishment and sun protection.

Gentle spring detox: deep cleansing

After winter, it's important to rid the skin of accumulated dirt and dead skin cells, but not to over-dry it. It is ideal to use gentle cleansing gels or oils that respect the skin's natural barrier.

Suitable ingredients:

Almond oil - gently dissolves impurities and moisturizes
Castor oil - promotes thorough pore cleansing
Tea tree essential oil-antibacterial effect against skin imperfections

FLUIDIFEEL EASY, cold process emulsifier O/W - suitable for creating light and delicate emulsions

Polyglyceryl-4-oleate - excellent emulsifier for the production of natural and cleansing oils or balms

Brightening peel - removal of dead cells

A gentle exfoliating scrub is ideal for restoring skin's brightness to help remove dry flakes and promote regeneration.

Suitable ingredients:

Ground pumice powder for exfoliation-g ently exfoliates the skin and gets rid of dead skin cells

Cosmetic clay, yellow, illit - gently tonesthe skin, eliminates excess sebum and tightens pores

Rose water, hydrolat -hydrates, refreshes and tones the skin

Moisturising and nourishing - waking up the skin for the new season

Spring calls for lighter moisturizing products that won't weigh your skin down, but will give it the nutrients it needs. For example, a moisturising serum with hyaluronic acid is a great choice.

Suitable ingredients:
Hyaluronic acid - intensive skin hydration

Aloe vera gel - soothes and softens the skin
Rosehip oil - regenerates and brightens

Sun protection - an essential step in your spring routine!

With the sun's rays getting stronger, SPF is an absolute must. If you make your own cosmetics, look for mineral UV filters like zinc oxide to protect your skin without unnecessary chemicals.

Suitable ingredients:

Raspberry seed oil - natural SPF protection
Carrot seed oil - antioxidant with UV protection
Shea butter - moisturizes and nourishes

Zinc oxide - provides high UV protection
