Spring has finally arrived, meaning it’s time for your skin to come out of hibernation. Unfortunately, the winter weather has left most of us with skin that is less than silky smooth. Dry weather and cold temperatures often leaves skin dried out, flaky and in desperate need of rejuvenation.
If your skin isn’t in shape for spring yet, try these 5 tips for revitalizing your skin for the warm days ahead:
-
Exfoliate your skin. Cold, dry weather may have left your skin dry and flaky. It’s time to smooth out that skin and give yourself a healthy springtime glow. A gentle exfoliator will slough off dry skin cells, allowing new skin to grow. Exfoliate and purify with Cures by Avance Algae Deep Pore Cleaner, which helps decongest blocked pores and brighten your complexion.
-
Lock in moisture. After a long winter, your skin needs to replenish the moisture lost during the cold season. Your moisturizer should help hydrate your skin and protect it from the elements. Your daytime moisturizer should also have SPF to protect from the sun. Try Cures by Avance Pore Balancing Moisturizer for a lightweight, pH-balancing moisturizer.
-
Rejuvenate with a hydrating mask. A face mask is a luxurious way to pamper yourself and revitalize your skin. Indulge your skin with Cures by Avance Nourishing Mask for a healthy, radiant complexion.
-
Give your skin a boost from the inside out with a daily supplement. GROH Ergo Boost Daily Replenishing Supplement helps give your skin a radiant glow by limiting the spread of free radicals. These supplements also help fortify nails, stimulate hair growth, strengthen your immune system and boost your energy.

Spring clean your makeup bag. Old, crusty makeup and anything that’s expired do not belong in your makeup bag. Exfoliating and hydrating your skin won’t do you any good if you follow it up by contaminating your skin with makeup that’s gone bad. That drugstore lipstick from three years ago? Probably a good idea to replace it, along with any other junky products that have seen better days. You should also thoroughly clean your makeup brushes to rid them of germs. The easiest way to do this is to rinse the brush with cold water, pour a dab of baby body wash into your palm, swirl the brush in the soap, and then rinse the brush until the water runs clear.
