Skincare shouldn't stop at your face. This week on The Skin Edit, we're discussing the importance of full-body skincare and how you can reset your routine for Spring.
Why is Full-Body Skincare Important?
While many of us are accustomed to caring for the skin on our face, we might not be as vigilant with caring for the skin on our bodies. Skin plays many important roles in a person's overall health. It's our layer of outer protection from bacteria and pollutants, and it regulates moisture loss. Caring for the skin all over our bodies is the best way to support skin in its essential functions.
How to Reset Your Body Care Routine for Spring
While Winter weather tends to result in drier skin, the warmer months can bring in a host of other skin issues. You might find that your skin feels oilier or more sensitive. As the weather warms up, the air holds more humidity and doesn't pull quite as much moisture from the skin. Swapping out some of your skincare can prevent breakouts and reduce excess oil.
Use a Lightweight Body Serum
When transitioning your Winter skincare regimen to a routine more suitable for Spring, it's important to support skin cell turnover with gentle chemical exfoliators. Buildup of dead skin cells can clog pores and make skin look dull. Daily Renewal Hydrating Body Serum is a hyaluronic acid-based serum, formulated with AHAs to support skin cell turnover. Amino acids, jojoba, and calendula lightly hydrate and restore the skin, leaving it softer and more radiant.
Swap Your Moisturizer
In colder weather, it's important to use a moisturizer heavy enough to withstand the dry air. When the weather warms up, those moisturizers that are perfect for Winter might be too heavy, causing clogged pores, excess oil, or even breakouts. As the temperature rises, replacing your Winter moisturizer with a lightweight hydrator can make all the difference for your skin.
Shelter Barrier Defense Cream was designed to support your skin barrier from head to toe. Formulated with ceramides and probiotics, Shelter deeply hydrates skin without being overly heavy or clogging pores. It's light and absorbs easily into the skin, making it the perfect swap for Spring.
