To make sure that you have soft, glowing skin for the spring, follow these simple steps to ensure that your skin is in its best condition!

Tips to Combat Dry Skin:

Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize—You may feel as if you’re moisturizing all the time, and you may even feel at times that no matter how much lotion you apply, it won’t help. But trust us, it will save your skin eventually! We recommend the SkinMedica Ultra Sheer Moisturizer for a great daily moisturizer, or HA⁵® Rejuvenating Hydrator, which provides immediate hydration. To let your dry skin recover from the harsh winter months, you may need to use these moisturizers twice a day, rather than just once a day.

Shorten your shower time—Did you know that one of the secrets to healthy, glowing skin is to take shorter, colder showers? Rather than taking long, steamy showers, a brisk and lukewarm shower is better for your skin.

Drink plenty of water—Hydrating your body is just as important as using moisturizer. Without enough water, your skin will dry up automatically!
