Spring Time & Your Skin





Spring has just about sprung... is your skin ready? With the weather warming up and people everywhere shedding their coats and winter layers, you can believe that more skin will be showing.Your skin is your largest organ. Keeping up on it's up keep is so important. Your skin is responsible for 1/4 of your body's detoxification process.  Here are a few tips on what to do to get that glorious glow on.


1. Drink water- Our water intake lessens during the winter months. Water is your skin's best friend. Keep it on hand and stay hydrated. Your skin will love you for it.

2. Exfoliate - I mentioned in an earlier post the importance of keeping your skin exfoliated. Not only does your skin on your face need to be exfoliated so does your entire body. A  fantastic way to exfoliate all over your body is by dry brushing. Dry brushing the skin helps to shed dead skin cells.This may improve the texture and appearance of your skin. Dry brushing can also tighten your skin, increase the blood flow, lymph flow and increase circulation. All of these things are great big snaps for a fabulous glow.

3. Moisturize- Keeping your skin moisturized is so important. We often tend to apply less creams and butters during the Winter season, leaving us scaly and dry. Stock up on moisturizers and slather them on all over. Don't forget your elbows and heels of your feet.

4. Get a facial- If you do not have a skin care therapist that you work with regularly, the beginning of Spring is a great reason to find one in your community and begin a beautiful relationship. Your  Esthetician will guide you on a skin care regimen that will shine a light your skin, work with you on areas that you are concerned about, and keep you looking your best. Many specialize on many different services.
