Spring brings with it pleasant breezes, warm sunshine, and the fresh scent of blooming flowers, but it can also be a challenging season for your skin. Sudden temperature changes and large day-to-night temperature swings often lead to a variety of skin issues. From excessive oil production and rough texture to a dull complexion, what are the ways to effectively combat these common springtime skin troubles?
Just as we shed the layers of winter clothing, our skincare regimen should evolve to embrace the changing season. Spring skincare involves adapting to lighter textures and fortifying the skin's defenses against allergens.
Thorough Hydration
Dry air and fluctuating temperatures can disrupt the skin's moisture balance, leading to rough and patchy skin. To counteract this, hydrating creams and serums are essential for keeping your skin moisturised from within.
You can also consider switching to lighter moisturisers (i.e. lotions) during spring if heavy creams feel too suffocating. Look for moisturisers that provide long-lasting hydration without clogging pores and strengthens your skin's natural moisture barrier.
Product Recommendation
- Neroli Aurantium Facial Lotion
- Avocado Fruit Moisture Cream
Focus on Sebum Control
Excessive sebum production can clog pores and cause breakouts, so it's important to use toners or lightweight moisturisers that help control sebum. Our new Manuka & Lavender Balancing Toner can help balance the skin's pH and prepare it to absorb the subsequent skincare products. It also offers an extra layer of hydration while controlling sebum production, which is particularly important as humidity increases.

Brighten Skin Tone
Spring's increased UV exposure can lead to a dull complexion. Our new Rosehip & Vitamin C Regenerative Serum works wonders to brighten the skin and reduce pigmentation. It also contains antioxidants to help repair any winter damage and protect the skin from free radicals, pollution, and increased UV rays.
To maximise the benefits, it’s essential to incorporate exfoliation. Exfoliating helps to shed the dead skin cells that accumulate during winter, which can leave your skin looking lackluster. Use our Almond & Lemonbalm Facial Scrub 1-2 times a week, and you will reveal a smoother, more radiant complexion.

Nourish and Soften the Body
As you start to show more skin in the warmer weather, it’s important to give your body the care it deserves. Use a nourishing body wash and follow up with a moisturiser to keep your skin soft and glowing. For areas prone to dryness, like elbows and knees, try a thicker cream to lock in moisture.

As the weather warms up, it’s important to adapt your skincare routine to the season. By focusing on hydration, sebum control, and sun protection for both your face and body, you can keep your skin healthy, radiant, and free from seasonal troubles, from head to toe.
