Spring is a time of transition that invites us to repair the skin from the dehydration caused by winter, while preparing it for the increased sunshine that summer will bring. Today I would like to share with you how to take care of your skin in spring.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the organ par excellence of spring is the liver and invites us to perform a purification. During the winter we have probably opted for heavier and warmer foods that have made our liver work a little harder than usual. To reinforce my vision of holistic skin care, I think it is interesting to do a little cleansing that will help us to decongest our skin. I recommend this detox infusion.
How to take care of your skin in spring
Externally, we can observe that the cold of winter and the contrast of heating has caused an excess of dryness in our skin. This translates as a lack of hydration and an increase in dead cells. For this, it is advisable to perform gentle exfoliations and nourish the skin with active ingredients that provide hydration and glowness.
Exfoliating the skin
To exfoliate the skin without causing irritation, I recommend opening the pore first. The steam generated after showering is sufficient. Now the skin is receptive to receive the treatment.
Instead of opting for a chemical peeling, which could cause an imbalance in our skin, I recommend using our Rainforest facial cleanser and light mask. The blend of clays present in the formula have absorbent, antiseptic and purifying properties. This means they balance excess oil, ridding the skin of toxins and impurities without stripping it of its natural oils. In addition, these clays perform a gentle exfoliation that enhances cell regeneration, revitalizes the skin and stimulates circulation. The result is a smooth and decongested skin.
In addition to washing your face in the morning and evening with Rainforest, in the spring you can apply two light masks a week. To do this, apply Rainforest to dry skin, leave on for 15 minutes and rinse off with lukewarm water.
Moisturize the skin
After exfoliating, it is important to moisturize the skin with a moisturizer.
Sunshine is a moisturizer with a light texture and a refreshing effect on the skin. It is absorbed almost instantly while hyaluronic acid and antioxidant oils work from the inside to prevent premature skin aging. The finish is luminous, velvety and non-oily.
Special care for your hands
Even if we have protected them during the cold months, hands need to recover after the winter. Dry, damaged hands need a moisturizer rich in oils and butters to soften the skin and improve its elasticity.
Moonlight is a creamy, fully repairing moisturizer specially formulated to nourish the skin, soothe it and enhance cellular rejuvenation.
With love,
