Refresh your spring skincare routine with expert tips from our skin specialist. Discover how seasonal changes affect your skin and shop must-have products to keep your complexion healthy, hydrated, and protected.
As springtime blossoms around us, it’s crucial to refresh your skincare routine to match the season’s unique challenges. Spring brings a rise in temperature, increased humidity, and a surge in environmental allergens – all of which can have a significant impact on your skin.
Skincare Routine – How Can Spring Affect Your Skin?
With the change in weather, you may notice your skin becoming more oily or sensitive. As humidity rises, the skin often produces more sebum, leading to clogged pores and potential breakouts. At the same time, spring marks the start of allergy season. Exposure to pollen and other airborne irritants can leave your skin inflamed, itchy, and red. Addressing these seasonal shifts early with the right products that support an allergy season skincare routine, you maintain a healthy, radiant complexion.
MYSKIN Shop UK’s spring skincare essentials checklist:
1 – Switch to a Gentle Cleanser
Your spring skincare routine calls for a lighter touch. A gentle, hydrating cleanser for spring, like the MELINE Gentle Foam Cleanser, effectively removes impurities while maintaining your skin’s natural moisture balance – essential for preventing irritation during allergy season.
You can also try the Cliniccare Cleansing Foam, which is a fast-acting rinse-off cleansing product which gently removes surface impurities while preserving the skin’s natural moisture balance.
2 – Balance and Refresh with a Toner
Managing excess oil without over-drying your skin is key. Incorporate a purifying toner such as SVR PHYSIOPURE Tonique. Enriched with magnesium, it helps to detoxify and calm the skin, minimising redness and irritation.
An alternative is the Innoaesthetics NMF TONIC, which is a highly moisturising toner. It is an invigorating and moisturising toner that refreshes and awakens your skin. The tonic supplies the cells with life-giving moisture to refresh the face and fight the peeling and tightness of the skin.
3 – Prioritise Sun Protection
Add face only SPF Cliniccare SPF 50
Even if the days feel mild, UV levels rise sharply in spring. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, such as SVR Laboratoire Sun Secure SPF 50+ Face and Body. A moisturising milk, this product provides powerful protection against UVA and UVB rays while offering a lightweight, non-sticky finish – perfect for the season.
If you are after an all-in-one repair and corrective cream for your skincare routine, which also acts as a soft covering foundation, and a moisturising day cream, you need the Cliniccare Dermo Corrective Cream SPF50+. Available in a medium and a darker shade.
4 – Soothe Irritated Skin
For those affected by seasonal allergies, soothing products are a must. Treat redness and inflammation with the Juliette Armand Elements Azulene Calming Mask. Specially formulated for sensitive and reactive skin, it contains targeted ingredients for soothing irritated skin and restoring natural balance.
5 – Boost with Antioxidants
Environmental aggressors like pollution and pollen can stress the skin. Fortify your routine with a potent antioxidant serum such as iS Clinical Pro Heal Serum. Rich in vitamins A and E, it helps heal the skin and protect against free radical damage, making it look and feel great.
Alternatively, there is the Environ Skin Essentia AVST 1-5 creams, which contain a low concentration of vitamin A and C as well as antioxidants to help support healthy-looking skin, and they are the very first step on the Environ step-up system for those with sensitive and fragile skin.
MYSKIN Shop UK’s Top Spring Skincare Tips
Lighten up your moisturiser – swap heavier winter creams for a lightweight, hydrating formula to avoid clogged pores. We often recommend SVR HYDRALIANE Crème Légère Moisturiser, which helps to gently hydrate the skin, leaving it feeling soft and supple – and now with 46% less plastic in its packaging, it’s a more environmentally friendly option, too. You can also try the versatile light moisturiser – iS Clinical Moisturising Complex. It is an easily absorbed botanical complex that creates an antioxidant-rich barrier that seals in moisture and insulates the skin from environmental damage.
Exfoliate gently – regular exfoliation with a mild product removes dull winter skin, but avoid overdoing it if your skin is reactive during allergy season. Juliette Armand Elements Exfoliating Enzyme Gel removes dead skin cells, brightening and revitalising the skin without causing irritation. Great for sensitive skin.
Stay hydrated – As temperatures climb, ensure your skin remains plump and healthy by drinking plenty of water and using hydrating serums in your skincare routine. If a serum isn’t for you, try a supplement such as ANP Skin Moisture Lock. Skin Moisture Lock works from the inside out to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Also helps plump the appearance of the skin¹. The result is a more youthful complexion that looks smooth and supple.
