Transition Your Skincare Routine From Winter To Spring Posted on 18 Mar 2022
Posted on 18 Mar 2022
The weather is finally starting to warm up and spring is just about on the horizon; that means that it's time to start thinking about making slight tweaks in your skincare routine!
After months of alternating between hot, dry indoor air and the harsh cold outside your skin needs some much-needed TLC. Implement these minor but very important changes for a healthy springtime glow and bring back that beautiful radiance that you've been missing all winter long.
Start Exfoliating (Even If You Have Dry Skin)
Spring is a time of renewal, to exfoliate and remove any dead and dull skin that has accumulated throughout the winter months. Regular exfoliation will give you the greatest glow of all! Even sensitive skin and dry skin types need to incorporate some exfoliation into their routine but perhaps opt for a gentle exfoliating cleanser instead such as PRIORI Gentle Cleanser LCA fx110 rather than any intensive leave on acids.
Are you new to exfoliating? DermaTx provides clinical results safely in your own home, no matter your skin type, using only the very best active ingredients and proven skin care techniques such as professional-grade corundum crystals, Glycolic Acid and Salicylic Acid. DermaTx Clarify Salicylic Cleanser successfully won Best New Facial Product ‪at The Beauty Awards 2018 with OK!
The DermaTx Microdermabrasion Treatment Creams contain both physical & chemical exfoliants in order to deliver instant results such as brighter, clearer, and smoother skin from day one but also long-term results like reducing brown spots, oil production, and premature skin aging. They are combined with AHA's and BHA's to encourage skin cell turnover, helping shed dead skin cells to create a fresher, flawless, more even-looking complexion.
Which DermaTx Range Is Right For Me?
DermaTx Brighten Microdermabrasion Cream - Ideal for those with dull, uneven skin tone, sun-damaged and aging skin
DermaTx Clarify Microdermabrasion Cream - Ideal for combination to oily skin types, and those who are acne-prone and/or suffer from enlarged pores
DermaTx Rejuvenate Microdermabrasion Cream - Ideal for normal skin types or those with sensitive/dry skin
You Are What You Eat!
You may see this everywhere, but it really is true. Your diet affects how your skin looks and whatever you put in, will be reflected on your complexion. Healthy skin goes beyond just skin care. Eating adequate fresh fruit, vegetables, and nutritious superfoods gives your skin the best possible nourishment from the inside that it requires. As well as this, there is a good reason as to why water seems to be in every diet and skincare ritual: it is located at the base of every function your body performs! It keeps your organs functioning, and your skin is the largest organ within your body. As you consistently drink more water, you will notice smoother, plumper skin that's less likely to be dehydrated or suffer from any dry patches.
Boost Your Skincare Routine At Home
Incorporating peels and masks at home will help to boost and elevate the results that you already achieve from your skin care routine. They are great prior to a special occasion but also great on a regular basis (we love to do this weekly on a Sunday evening) as an effective way to really deliver instant bursts of ingredients and results.
We highly recommend an at-home peel or mask to kickstart your spring skincare routine. They provide visible results almost immediately! A nourishing mask like PCA Skin Hydrating Mask helps to leave the skin detectably softer and plumper. If you're feeling brave, choose Eminence Organic Hungarian Herbal Mud Treatment, blemish-prone and oily skin will love this but be warned that it does produce a (normal) hot, stimulating sensation on the skin!
When it comes to at-home peels, PEEL2GLOW wins every single time for us. An easy-to-use, 2-step peel with no irritation and is suitable for everyone. Not sure which one is for you? We can help...

Switch To A Lighter Moisturiser
Spring is the time that your skin begins to adapt itself ready for the heat and humidity of the upcoming summer, so you may need to begin switching to lighter versions when you next repurchase to the ones that you're already using. Here is a helpful guide to know which product you should purchase next if you already use the richer option:
HydroPeptide Power Lift Moisturiser switch to HydroPeptide Face Lift Moisturiser
iS CLINICAL Reparative Moisture Emulsion switch to iS CLINICAL Moisturising Complex
Jan Marini Transformation Face Cream switch to Jan Marini Transformation Face Serum
NeoStrata Skin Active Dermal Replenishment switch to Neostrata Skin Active Cellular Restoration
SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 switch to SkinCeuticals A.G.E Interrupter
PCA Skin Silkcoat Balm switch to PCA Skin Rebalance
ZENMED Omegaceramide+ Recovery Moisturiser switch to ZENMED AVT Cream
Wear Sunscreen, Everyday
Even on cloudy days, UV rays make their way through the clouds and can cause serious damage to your skin (but you may not notice for years to come). It is really important to remember to wear your sunscreen every day or you may be putting your skin at risk of sun damage, pigmentation, and even potentially skin cancer.
Sunscreen protects all skin types to maintain healthy skin. Wearing sunscreen daily saves you from years of visible damage later on. We recommend making sure that you are using an SPF 50 during the spring and summer months for complete sun protection. You can shop all our sunscreens here.
Your face isn't the only area that needs sunscreen though; don't neglect your delicate eyes or lips! A lip balm containing sun protection is a great way to protect and hydrate at the same time. We love iS CLINICAL LiProtect SPF 35 for this.
Then for your eyes, using your regular SPF too close around your eyes can cause irritation which is why separate eye sunscreens, safe to be used around the eye area, were invented. Skinceuticals Mineral Eye UV Defense SPF 30 makes a great choice as it is non-migrating meaning that it won't run into the sensitive eye area. It contains a sheer, universal tint as well to unify and banish dark under eyes!
Spring Clean Your Routine
The change of seasons is the perfect time to have a spring clean of your current skin care routine to create the right regime for you again and be suitable for this time of year. The winter weather can be harsh on our skin, but with a few simple changes, you can get your healthy skin back in no time.
