This Folk Remedy Can Make Spring Skin Worse: Check Your Makeup Bag

The increase in the number of sunny days and the increase in the index of ultraviolet light dictate standard recommendations: most likely, a cosmetologist will be skeptical about doing a deep peeling or mesotherapy so as not to provoke the appearance of age spots, especially if you are prone to hyperpigmentation.

And in any case, you absolutely must use sunscreen to go out, even if your care does not include acids or retinoids. It is advisable to apply it not only on the face, but also on the ears and neck, and for fair-skinned people – also in the parting! By the way, it is worth using a cream with SPF in autumn and winter, but you can choose a smaller number of protections. For the warm season, products with an SPF of 30 or more are optimal.

But that’s not all.

In the spring, both in nature and in the skin, all processes are activated, and owners of oily and combination skin begin to feel changes literally within a few days. And here’s the rub: mattifying agents can turn into enemies of the skin. By narrowing the pores, they do not allow them to get rid of excess sebum on their own. Pores clog, skin dries out. The result is pronounced comedones and severe rashes.

Beauticians advise: noticing an increase in the amount of sebum, do not grab a tube of matting agent and rush to use it several times a day – this is a vicious circle. An integrated approach to care will help avoid oily sheen (don’t skip the steps of cleansing the skin, and remember that even oily skin needs nutrition and hydration, including in spring and summer). Within a few weeks, the skin adapts to the new seasonal conditions – and the peak of sebum production will pass.
