Six Top Skincare Tips for Spring

Spring is almost here. Hooray!

March 20^th marks the arrival of a new season and with that in mind, it may be time to reassess your skincare routine for one that is more fitting for the return of lighter nights, warmer temperatures and new trends.

As the days get lighter and warmer, the skin that you kept snuggly under wraps during the colder weather is revealed…so it’s important that you give it a bit of TLC to make sure it’s happy and healthy.

Take a look at our top tips for spring skincare. You’ll be positively glowing and radiant by the time spring gets here:

1. Lighten Up

Consider transitioning to a lighter moisturiser for spring. Whilst more intensive creams are ideal as a barrier during the winter months, they can be a little heavy once the wind drops and can leave pores congested, leading to skin blemishes and acne. Switching to a lighter hydrating fluid, like Caudalie’s Vinoperfect Radiance Moisturiser SPF20 not only moisturises the skin, it also tightens pores, reduces excess sebum and imperfections, corrects dark spots and restores radiance, leaving it naturally flawless.

2. Don’t Wait to Hydrate

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again….drink water all year round! Staying hydrated has soooo many benefits, not just for your skin, but for your whole body. It helps to reduce puffiness, flushes toxins out of your body to encourage clear, radiant skin and prevents you from getting dehydrated. Aim for between six to eight glasses each day. If you find plain old tap water too boring, try adding lemon, cucumber and mint which not only provide a refreshing hit of flavour, but also aid digestion and prevent bloating.

3. Stop Blushing

With the change of the season comes a change in the next big thing, so it’s time to put the contouring kit down. Hot on the catwalks for spring/summer 2020 were colourful eyes and a strong lip (although not together of course!) Glitter, pastels and neon eye shadows stole the show, whilst bold reds and gothic black lips made a strong statement without uttering a word.

4. Scrub Up

To make sure that your skin is healthy and bright, why not treat yourself to an indulgent spa treatment which strips back all the dead cells, leaving brand new, smooth skin ready to be bared. Caudalie’s Crushed Cabernet Scrub, available at the Devonshire Spa, is a 60-minute exfoliation treatment which incorporates one of the most popular scrubs from Caudalie’s Vinothérapie® Spas. The exfoliation technique regains your skin’s radiance and softness, providing the optimum opportunity for the skin to absorb all the hydrating ingredients to follow.

5. Spring Clean Your Shelf

It’s all well and good re-evaluating your skincare regime, but if you’re reaching for last year’s products, then stop right there. All beauty products have a shelf life – see that little icon of a tub on the back of your product? Well, the number inside it reflects how many months the product lasts for once it’s been opened. If the products on your skincare shelf are racking up the years, then it’s time to ditch them and start over. Why not call into the Devonshire Spa and browse our range of spa products from industry leaders such as Caudalie, [ comfort zone ] and Ishga, as well as make-up and beauty products from Mii and Jessica Nails?

6. Treat Yourself

One of the quickest ways to beam with beauty is to feel happy from within, and how do we get happy? By treating ourselves to a relaxing spa session of course! Tucking yourself away in the sanctuary of the award-winning Devonshire Spa, away from the strains and stresses of everyday life is a great way to boost your mood and lift your spirits. Our brand-new offer, Forward March, is the perfect way to get yourself and your skin ready for the new season. Choose from one of three invigorating Caudalie facials and a 30-minute Crushed Cabernet Scrub to renew, revitalise and really put a spring in your step.
