Spring Awakening: Refresh Your Skin: Wellness Routine for the New Season

As nature awakens from winter dormancy, your skin needs a seasonal transition too. Spring's arrival brings warmer temperatures, increased humidity, and more sunlight - all requiring adjustments to your beauty routine.

Temperature Transition

Your skin has spent months in defence mode, producing more oil to compensate for winter dryness. As temperatures rise, you may notice increased oiliness or congestion. This is your skin recalibrating.

Gradually lighten your moisturiser, perhaps switching from a rich cream to a gel-cream hybrid. Your skin still needs hydration, but lighter textures prevent the heaviness that can lead to breakouts.

Spring Cleaning Your Routine

Assess your products honestly. Check expiration dates - most opened skincare lasts 6-12 months. If something hasn't worked all winter, spring is your permission to let it go.

Simplify to essentials: cleanser, speciality serum, moisturiser, and SPF (non-negotiable as UV levels increase). Gold Collagen provides comprehensive internal support, reducing the need for multiple topical products.

Exfoliation Revisited

Winter often necessitates gentle exfoliation to remove dry flakes. Spring allows for slightly more active renewal. Consider incorporating a mild AHA or BHA product 2-3 times weekly to refine texture and brighten. Always follow with SPF, as exfoliation increases sun sensitivity.

Seasonal Nutrition

Spring brings fresh produce packed with skin-loving nutrients. Asparagus provides folate and vitamins A, C, and E. Leafy greens offer antioxidants that protect against environmental damage. Berries deliver vitamin C, essential for collagen synthesis

Lighter, plant-forward meals naturally align with spring's energy whilst supporting skin from within.

Energy and Movement

Longer days invite more outdoor activity. Morning walks boost vitamin D production and circulate oxygen-rich blood to your skin. Just remember SPF—spring sun is deceptively strong.

The Hydration Shift

You might naturally drink more water as temperatures rise. Maintain this habit, as proper hydration supports collagen supplementation's effectiveness. Well-hydrated skin better absorbs and utilises the collagen peptides you're providing.

Mindful Transitions

Don't overhaul everything overnight. Gradual changes allow your skin to adjust without disruption. Notice how your complexion responds and refine accordingly.

Spring represents renewal and possibility. Let your skincare reflect this fresh beginning whilst maintaining the consistency that produces results.
