After months of cold weather and dry indoor air, your skin might be feeling dull and dehydrated. Now’s the perfect time to get your natural glow back and give your skin the fresh start it deserves by focusing on hydration, exfoliation, and – as always – sun protection.
Hydration Helps Nourish and Replenish Your Skin
Hydration should be a top priority for the spring to help restore balance, improve elasticity, and give your skin a natural, dewy glow.
For ultimate, long-lasting hydration, try SkinMedica’s HA⁵® Hydra Collagen Replenish + Restore Hydrator – the new and improved version of the classic HA5 we all know and love. The new HA5 reaches deeper into the skin than the original, targeting the dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ). By targeting the DEJ, it supports hydration-boosting collagens, driving the growth of new and healthy skin cells and improving long-term hydration.
While hydration is crucial, you will want to be sure to swap out heavier winter moisturizers for lightweight, hydrating formulations that deliver moisture without clogging pores. Of course, hydrated skin starts from within, so be sure to increase your water intake as temperatures rise.
Shed Dry Winter Skin with Exfoliation
When temperatures drop, we often recommend minimizing harsh exfoliants and retinoids. But, as spring approaches, reincorporating these into your routine can help shed dry winter skin and help reveal a fresh, glowing complexion.
We love SkinMedica’s AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser to gently scrub away dead skin, improving the appearance of skin tone and texture. Exfoliate two to three times a week to maintain smooth, radiant skin without irritation.
For more immediate and lasting results, we recommend incorporating regular DiamondGlow or Hydrafacial treatments, which exfoliate while infusing nourishing serums, and Chemical Peels, which help correct a variety of complexion concerns.
Reintroduce Antioxidants
With increased sun exposure in spring, your skin is more susceptible to free radicals, which can cause oxidative stress and accelerate aging. Antioxidants help neutralize these harmful molecules, helping to preserve your skin’s youthful bounce and resilience.
Look for serums with Vitamin C, E, and niacinamide to fight free radicals, boost collagen, and prevent hyperpigmentation. A few of our favorites include SkinMedica’s Lumivive System, Obagi Vitamin C with Hydroquinone, SkinMedica’s TNS Advanced+ Serum, and SkinMedica’s Total Defense and Repair.
Sun Protection is Always Essential
You already know sunscreen isn’t just a summer essential – it should be a daily habit all year long. And with the sun getting stronger each day, now is the time to be even more diligent about application, making sure you’re using a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher. If you’re spending extended time outdoors, don’t forget to reapply every two hours and use enough sunscreen to fully cover exposed skin.
Not all sunscreens are created equal, either. Most skincare product lines available at department stores or drug stores do not contain the concentration of active ingredients needed to achieve optimal results. Medical-grade skin care products are more potent and penetrate deeper into the skin because they are dispensed by medical professionals trained to evaluate a concentration appropriate for each patient. Our favorite sunscreens are from SkinMedica, Obagi, and ColoreScience.
Spring is the season of renewal, and your skin deserves the same care and attention.
