Beauty Tips for Spring: Part I

The weather is beautiful these days and I’m sure many of our fashion-conscious listeners out there are looking for ways to create a new and exciting look this season. Today I’m going to introduce the hottest beauty tips for spring to help you stay chic in the warmer days.








1. Wear sunscreen

To protect your skin from the hot sun, always wear good quality sunscreen with a SPF rating of 30 or higher. Even when you are not out in the sun all day, or on rainy or cloudy days, it’s important to remember to wear sunscreen as the harmful UV rays are known to still penetrate through the clouds. Sunscreen should go on after moisturizer and before makeup, and wear it not only on the face but also on your neck and hands to better protect yourself from sun exposure. It’s also a good idea to use a lipbalm with SPF in it to protect your lips to avoid sun damage.

2. Moisturize and Exfoliate Properly

The newest trend seems to be all about beautiful skin, as the look of fresh, dewy skin ruled the 2010 Spring/Summer runways. To achieve a glowing skin, one of the most important tips to remember is to follow a daily skincare routine. Cleanse, tone, and moisturize every morning and night, and instead of using oil-based or emollient rich creams that are generally more suitable for colder weather, go for lightweight, water-based moisturizers this spring to lock in enough moisture in the skin. Remember, dead skin cells tend to build up when the temperature increases, so don’t forget to exfoliate at least three times a week. Use a gentle, foamy exfoliator before you wash your face and follow with a moisturizer; but remember not to scrub your skin too hard as it can cause irritation.

3. Get a Facial at Home

Consistently removing the layer of dead cells and moisturizing properly help to restore your skin’s supple texture. On top of that, getting a facial regularly is another secret to a beautiful skin. Did you know that you can get facials at home and still look as if you had visited a beauty salon? Consider getting home facials this season; make a homemade face pack using honey, avocado, egg white, and a teaspoon of mayonnaise and apply on the face once or twice a week. Before you apply the mask, use a facial steamer or heated wet towel as a substitute and leave on the face for a few minutes to deep cleanse and open the clogged pores.
