Prepare your skin for spring in 7 steps

Our skin is already exposed to stressful situations on a daily basis, which is further exacerbated by the changing of seasons. Summer and winter put the most strain on it due to either very high or very low temperatures.

During the summer months, it’s constantly exposed to powerful sunrays that can, in large amounts, damage it; while it is certainly true that being out in the sun is beneficial for our well-being and provides us with vitamin D, sunbathing should still not be overdone, as it causes skin damage and faster ageing.

Winter months are problematic as well, since temperatures drop below zero - on one hand, we’re exposed to bitter cold, while on the other our rooms are warm and heated. It’s these differences in temperature that lead to damaged skin, which is often rough, dry, and even cracked in some areas.

When the cold, wind and snow subside, spring finally arrives. This is the time of year when we need to prepare our skin and give it some respite from the unpleasant winter conditions.

Here are a few simple steps you can take to prepare your skin for the warmer months ahead.

Exfoliate your skin

After a cold winter and a long hibernation, our skin starts waking up - it just needs a little invigorating boost. To speed up the epidermal renewal cycle and remove dead skin cells, we need to practice exfoliation. This procedure will remove the dead cells and make room for new ones. The purpose of an exfoliating scrub is therefore to renew the top layer of the skin and improve blood circulation, which leads to a nicer and more even complexion.

Our skin will need intense moisturisation to regain a healthy glow during the upcoming spring. For abundant moisturisation, we recommend Moisturising Bright Essence that’s rich in hyaluronic acid, which replenishes the skin’s moisture. Meanwhile, hemp hydrolate improves circulation and CBD protects us from free radicals and has an antioxidative effect. Silver fir polyphenols improve elasticity and, at the same time, increase the production of collagen and elastin.

Provides an instant rush of hydration and reveals natural radiance. This ultra-light hydrating serum is an active concentration of powerful, naturally derived, hydrating ingredients and antioxidants. It is an infusion of pure natural freshness, exclusively made to be the first moisturising step in your skincare ritual. Brightens dull complexions and prompts the skin’s ability to absorb the following treatments. Key ingredients:Hemp hydrolate provides a rush of hydration and delivers nutrients Silver fir polyphenols increases collagen and elastin synthesis Hyaluronic acid instantly hydrates thirsty skin CBD keeps the skin protected and guides skin back to balance

Pamper your skin with a nourishing cream

In spring, we can experience a lot of temperature fluctuations and changes in weather, which can all have an impact on our skin. It tends to be quite dry and sometimes cracked after a cold winter, while it is also increasingly exposed to sunrays due to the approaching warmer weather. This combination especially can cause a lot of stress, so suitable protection is needed.

To moisturise and nourish the skin at the same time, we need to pick quality products; we recommend using the Nurturing Face Cream in spring - its formula ensures the best care possible. Hyaluronic acid in the cream keeps the skin well moisturised, while hempseed oil nourishes and strengthens it with its fats.

A rich, ultra-nourishing moisturiser with a concentrate of hemp extracts, instantly soothes and rehydrates very dry, dehydrated and sensitive skin, reinforcing the skin barrier. Nurturing hemp seed oil, repairing omegas 3, 6 & 9, soothing CBD and hyaluronic acid help to improve moisture retention, preventing dryness and signs of premature ageing. Ingredients:Hemp seed oil with omegas 3, 6 & 9 strengthen and smooth the skin. Hyaluronic acid locks in moisture, leaving skin soft and radiant Rose and hemp hydrolate protect, calm and balance the skin. CBD calms irritation and redness.

Don’t forget hidden areas

We often take good care of the skin on our face, but forget about the rest of the body - especially its hidden parts. But during such changes in climate, the skin of the whole body suffers and even the most heavily obscured areas need attention. Your choice of soaps, lotions and shampoos should be adapted to the time of year; we should, therefore, look for products with a ligther texture in spring. Products containing hyaluronic acid and antioxidants, which protect the skin from negative environmental influences, are usually the best fit. Before making a purchase, we should, of course, always check the ingredients, which should be as natural as possible, and the product’s shelf life.

What about lips and hands?

Our lips also need plenty of moisturisation to help them recover from the dehydration they have suffered over the winter. For soft and shiny lips, we recommend Hydrating CBD Lip Balm that delights with a refreshing lime aroma. Hempseed oil deeply replenishes and nourishes the lips with an ideal ratio of omega 3 and 6 fats, while also helping to strengthen the skin’s self-protective role.

Low temperatures certainly leave the most visible effect on the skin of our hands. If you’re one of those people who suffer from dry skin and cracked knuckles in winter, you know what we’re talking about. To avoid this, it is very important to provide your hands with the proper care in the form of a good hand cream during winter already. The situation usually calms down a bit during spring, but there may still be issues, which can be remedied with a quality natural hand cream. When choosing a cream, don’t forget to pay attention to the ingredients, since some products can make our problems even worse.

Hydrates, softens and soothes dry and dehydrated lips. With its 100% natural formula, this lip balm combines the calming and nourishing properties of CBD, hempseed oil and bisabolol to gently soothe and soften the skin of the lips and provide intense hydration throughout the day. Swathing the lips in a fresh lime fragrance, it keeps them hydrated, supple and radiant. Key ingredients:Hemp seed oil: one of the most active natural oils, it deeply replenishes and nourishes the lips with the ideal ration of omega 3 to 6 fats and helps strengthen the skin’s self-protective role. CBD: soothes sensitive skin and works to prevent inflammation. Provides a powerful antioxidant effect, thus protecting the skin against environmental free radicals and premature ageing. Lime: extremely invigorating essential oil that instils joy and optimism, while also protecting the skin with its antibacterial effects.

Start using an SPF sunscreen

Even though temperatures may not be very high yet, it is still important to protect our skin from the sun’s power, considering UV radiation also penetrates through windows, which means we are exposed to it for most of the day. Heat causes cells to break down, which can result in premature signs of ageing. We recommend you start using an SPF cream as soon as possible to keep your skin looking youthful. Even if you don’t have the time for a complete skincare routine, try to take at least a few moments in the morning to apply sunscreen.

A healthy mind in a healthy body

You can do the bulk of the work required for a smooth transition from the cold to the warm months yourself. Warmer months bring more seasonal vegetables and fruit, so you can prepare a refreshing and balanced meal in just a few minutes. As with cosmetics that need to be replaced by products with a lighter texture, so does our diet, which should be lighter and more refreshing during the warm months. In addition to a healthy diet, getting enough sleep and plenty of exercise in the fresh air will also have a positive impact on your skin. Don’t forget to stay hydrated too - hydration is, after all, essential for maintaining a youthful appearance. To slow down the signs of ageing, try to avoid stressful situations and take some time for yourself every now and then.
