Warmer weather and fresh flowers are on their way as spring quickly approaches. As we wait with anticipation to pull out our sandals and pack up our sweaters, our skin might not be as ready to embrace the new season. Don’t worry! There is still time to prepare. Here are some tips to help get your skin ready for spring.
Feet
They’ve been bundled up in wool socks and
leather boots, but it’s time to get your feet ready to see the sun again. The first
step in getting your feet in tip-top shape is to exfoliate. Use a gentle
exfoliating cleanser or scrub to wash away the dead skin and reveal soft, new
heels and toes. Next, moisturize. Be consistent in this step, and don’t neglect
your toenails and cuticles. The final step is optional (and primarily for the
female readers), but a little color added to your toes is a great complement for
your toe-baring sandals!
Body
Your skin is probably still recuperating from
the dry, cold winter air. To give your skin a boost toward a springtime glow, start
by exfoliating. Just like your feet, the rest of your skin needs a gentle
cleanser or scrub to help buff away dry skin. Use an exfoliating brush or cloth
in the shower along with your exfoliating wash for optimal results. The next
step is to apply a moisturizing body lotion to rehydrate your skin. To take
care of dry patches that don’t go away with the first two steps, you can invest
in some over-the-counter deep moisturizing balms or, for extreme cases, talk to
your physician about a stronger solution.
Face
Although staying true to your regular skin care
routine is a good rule of thumb, throwing something new into the mix might be
just what your face needs to achieve a healthy spring glow. An option you
should consider is one of our many medi spa treatments. One treatment we
recommend when first visiting our medi spa is a facial. Our many facial options
include treatments like deep exfoliation, a therapeutic massage or extractions
to clean out clogged pores and eliminate dead skin cells. These three steps
will nourish your skin and promote new cell turnover. Another treatment we
offer is microdermabrasion. This
treatment rejuvenates your skin, using a state-of-the-art diamond-tipped wand
to remove dead skin cells and other impurities.
