Winter is officially behind us, and while temperatures are (finally) starting to warm up for spring, it can be challenging to repair dry skin caused by our harsh winters.
In this blog post, we will be sharing with you some of our most valuable tips to help you regain some of your skin's glow that might be depleted by this cold season.
With these 5 simple but effective tips, get a fresh skin worthy of spring!
Our first tip for controlling dry skin is to adopt a regular moisturizing routine. When the skin's moisture barrier is damaged, it can appear rough and dry. It then requires adequate hydration to regain its integrity.
We recommend to use specific products specifically suitable for dry skin and to apply them morning and night after cleansing your skin. Be sure to use a moisturizer rich in ceramides or natural oils to create a thin protective layer to seal in moisture and protect your skin from environmental aggressors that cause dry skin.
The Biome Restore and Daily Radiance creams are great choices for providing moisture and those essential fats your dry skin needs.
A moisturizing mask is a great way to complement your routine and provides an extra dose of moisture, while soothing the tight feeling caused by dry skin.
In this case, the formula we would recommend is the Collagen Mask. This product contains marine collagen, an active ingredient that reinforces the skin's moisture barrier, in combination with hyaluronic acid, a powerful humectant. Use it twice a week for smoother, softer skin.
Exfoliation is an effective way to remove dead skin cells that accumulate on the surface of the skin. By exfoliating your skin once a week, you help stimulate and preserve your skin's natural moisture. In order not to damage your dry skin, we recommend using gentle products that do not contain abrasive particles and opt for very fine exfoliating grains.
The Lumi Lumi Exfo gentle scrub is the perfect option for dry and sensitive skin. It is made with Avena sativa grain flour, which is known to protect the skin from environmental stressors that cause dry skin, as well as act as an absorbent agent for your skin.
Sun emits harsh ultraviolet rays that can damage dry skin.
Our vitamin C serum (the Multi-C Serum 15%) is an essential part of your daily routine to protect your dry skin from UV rays and deeply moisturizes your skin, all while adding a glow to your complexion.
Using sunscreen is also an important step in protecting your skin from sun damage. We recommend using a broad spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher.
After applying your Daily Simple Cleanser, we recommend going that extra step with the light Cleansing oil before bed to ensure your skin is nourished overnight. In addition to moisturizing, cleansing and purifying your skin, it removes makeup effectively while replenishing the skin’s moisture barrier that can prevent transepidermal water loss.
This formula contains jojoba oil, an ingredient known for its sebum-regulating properties, which has the ability to increase the amount of sebum needed by dry skin. Plus, it includes ingredients with antioxidant properties that help fight oxidative stress caused by UV rays and pollution causing dry skin.
So give your skin the extra care it deserves and wake up to a radiant complexion!
By following these simple and easy-to-follow tips, you can enjoy the benefits of spring while revealing healthy-looking, well-nourished skin.
Pay close attention to the type of products you use, and opt for healthier indoor air while moisturizing your skin regularly. In addition, drink plenty of water and limit the use of dehydrating products or beverages like caffeine and alcohol as much as possible. Lastly, get your 8 hours of beauty sleepand as much as possible.
You'll be so satisfied with the results that a good skin care routine can give you!
