The cold, winter air not only dries out your skin; it also makes it fragile. Spring is the time to get your skin back to a healthy state before the summer heat arrives. As a regular practice, it’s important to exfoliate and apply lotion. Another key ingredient to healthy skin is to make sure you’re hydrated (i.e. drinking enough water.)
Dial down your bath and shower temp to warm—and suds up with a mild cleanser that won’t over-dry your skin. Hot water strips your essential moisturizing oils.
If you prefer baths, add colloidal oatmeal, which is soothing and especially moisturizing for chapped, damaged skin.
Lightly pat your skin dry with your towel, rather than rubbing.
Protect and moisturize your lips with a lip balm with SPF 20 protection.
Remember to wear sunscreen. You need at least 6% zinc oxide and 50+ SPF.
