Winter is hard on the skin. Four months of cold outdoor air, dry indoor heat, and weak sunlight – and your skin shows it. A spring skin "cleanse" is the most effective skincare routine of the year, and it’s worth starting as early as February.
What does winter do to the skin?
In winter, the skin accumulates a thicker layer of dead cells than in summer. Dry air removes moisture from the surface layers, and low sunlight slows down skin cell renewal. The result: skin is darker, more uneven, and duller than in autumn.
Spring Cleaning for Your Skin – Step by Step
Step 1: Full Body Exfoliation
Start by removing the layer of dead skin accumulated over winter. Euphoria Sugar Body Scrub contains sugar, which gently exfoliates, and vegetable fats, which moisturize at the same time. Use it in the sauna or shower once a week for 2–3 weeks – your skin will visibly brighten.
Step 2: Deep Cleansing for the Face
Switch your washing routine to a deeper oil cleanse. Radiant Oil Cleansing Bar cleanses effectively yet gently, and its vegetable fats provide immediate moisture to tight winter skin from the very first wash.
Step 3: Revitalizing Serum
After exfoliation, the skin is in its most receptive state. Apply Bliss Vitamin C Serum – Vitamin C is the best-known skin brightener and it stimulates collagen production in spring skin.
Step 4: Pamper Your Body
The skin on your body has been forgotten under long winter clothes. Innocent Body Oil Bar after a shower on damp skin quickly restores softness to the body.
Spring Cleaning Doesn't Mean Aggressive Treatment
Spring cleaning doesn't mean punishing your skin for winter. Gentleness is key – overly aggressive exfoliation can irritate the skin barrier weakened by winter. Use the recommended amount and allow your skin time to recover between exfoliations.
