The holidays are over, the ground is starting to thaw and it looks like some warmth is on the horizon. This can be an exciting time for many as we shed heavy coats and sweaters to make room for lighter fabrics and pastel tones. There is nothing better than that first warm day when you open all the windows and look out to see the green go by. The transition from winter to spring can be a great time to reassess our skincare and wardrobeand exexperiment with new spring makeup looks. As the temperature rises, our skin will typically experience things like more sweating, more sebum production, and a greater need for SPF. The truth is that keeping our skin care in sync with the seasons makes a lot of sense. Let’s look at some ways we can prepare for warmer weather.
The clean principle: Exchange your Makeup Remover in Spring
During the cold winter months, we often turn to creamy cleansers and balms to remove makeup. Some People choose to switch back to soaps or foaming cleansers during the warmer months. While this change may be lighter on the skin rather than heavy cleansing balmsRemember that foaming cleansers and soaps can sometimes strip or even dry out the skin.
- One marvelous moisturizing face cleanser twin is Jane Iredale Beauty Prep Facial Cleanserand Magic Mitt. The Beauty Prep Facial Cleanser it’s a great alternative to traditional cleansers because it’s a Micellar Water cleanser and not a soap based. Made with nourishing ingredients like cucumber and aloe, it doesn’t dry out the skin, but you will find it just as effective. Micellar Water gently removes dirt and impurities from the skin and leaves a layer of soothing hydration that absorbs instantly.
- The Magic Mitt it is made of microfibers that are smaller than a human hair. They mimic the action of emulsification by dissolving makeup and debris to leave skin incredibly clean without disrupting pH or drying skin. When combined with Beauty Prep Facial CleanserResults from this face cleansing duo they are amazing!
- Heat it up Magic Mitt under warm water and apply a few drops of Beauty Prep Facial Cleanser at the top. Then rub gently in a circular motion all over the faceincluding around the eyes and on the lips. Keep yours Mmagical Mis clear of washing it with soap after use and leaveair dry it.
