5 Tips for Spring Cleaning your Skincare

New season, new skin care regimen.

And since the official start of spring is just around the corner (it's already tomorrow!), now is the best time to start preparing your skin for the temperature rises and the arrival of flowers and allergies. 

In addition to changing your makeup and nail varnish to lighter products with lighter colors, don't neglect your skin care routine. The winter months, with the cold, rain and humidity, tend to dry out the skin and leave it dull and lifeless. 

Help your skin prepare for the the arrival of good weather, with our top five tips for the new season, and just in time for the annual "Spring Cleaning" ritual.

Lighter and smoother skin cleansing

As warmer weather arrives, it's time to change not only those heavy boots, coats and sweaters, but also the rich, hydrating cleansers that are great for protecting your skin from the cold, rainy winter.
Swap your daily cleanser for a lighter, gentler formula that will help cleanse your skin and give it a fresh feeling.

Exfoliation

The cold, rain and humidity help to accumulate a series of toxins in our pores. Dead skin cells, accumulated excess of heavy moisturizers and environmental toxins, accumulate in our skin, giving it a dull, lifeless look and sometimes with occasional pimples. That's why we recommend exfoliating the skin to prepare it for the new season. 
Make a gentle exfoliation, two to three times a week, to free the skin of accumulated toxins.

We recommend:

• Oskia Micro Exfoliating Balm: A creamy and gentle micro exfoliating balm. Can be used with little water for a stronger exfoliation effect or with damp skin and hands for a more delicate and gentle exfoliation, suitable for even the most sensitive skins.

Sun protection

Sun protection should be used throughout the year, regardless of the weather.
