6 Skincare Tips for Seasonal Change

The importance of a good skincare routine during seasonal changes is often overlooked. You’ve probably noticed that your skin reacts to changes in the air with every new season. With the changing weather, you may notice more dryness, breakouts, redness and puffiness. As frustrating as that can be, almost everyone goes through it.

With the seasons changing, what does this mean for your beauty routine? Changing your skincare routine every season can seem daunting (and expensive). Especially when you finally found a routine that works for your skin type. Protecting and taking care of your skin is one of the most important things you can do. Here are our best tips and tricks to use all year-round to combat the seasonal changes.

Moisturize

One of the more important things you can do for your skin is to moisturize it. As shocking as it is, not all moisturizers are created equally. Find a moisturizer that works for your skin type. Since the change in weather can leave your skin feeling dry, you’ll need a good moisturizer. We recommend a moisturizer that will help replenish your skin barrier. If you don’t moisturize daily you could be depleting your skin of its needed hydration. Don’t forget a lip moisturizer! Our skin doesn’t like sudden transitions, so adding a lip moisturizer will also help with the transition.

Exfoliate regularly

Our bodies are always creating new skin cells. Changing seasons can affect the process and even slow down the skin shedding process. That’s where exfoliation comes along. Exfoliation helps us keep the process moving, keeping our skin looking happy and healthy during the changing seasons. Exfoliation prevents clogged pores and dry skin, allowing moisturizers to penetrate deeper into the skin.

Try a hydrating facial

It’s recommended that with every change of season, you get a facial. A facial allows for freshly cleaned pores, allowing your products to absorb more efficiently into your skin. A hydrating facial will help combat the environmental stress caused to your skin by changing weather. It will also rejuvenate your skin, giving it a boost of nourishment and hydration. Consulting a skincare specialist can help ensure that you are following the right skin care for your particular needs.

Add SPF to your routine

Wearing sunscreen year-round is important, even during the winter when it is cold and overcast. SPF is crucial when it comes to protecting your skin from fine lines and wrinkles. And even more important to decrease the risk of skin cancer. We highly recommend wearing a sunscreen all year round for glowy skin through the seasons. It will help lock in added moisture, but is also a great anti-aging product. Your skin will thank you!

Get your beauty sleep

Sleep isn’t just recovery for your brain, it’s recovery for your skin as well. Getting enough sleep each night is crucial for healthy, glowy skin. Whenever you skimp out on sleep, you probably notice a difference in your skin tone and complexion. Sleep gives your skin a chance to recover from the whole day’s worth of damage. As your skin recovers, you’ll notice a difference in wrinkles, puffiness and more.

Nourish your skin from the inside out

There’s no denying that glowy skin starts with nourishment from within. The saying you are what you eat is semi-true. Your skin needs all the nutrients it can get for a smooth transition from season to season. Eating a healthy diet and drinking plenty of water will help combat the stress of changing weather on your skin. Seasonal change is something that you can’t control. But you can control the foods you eat to give your skin a fighting chance against the weather.
