Spring Skincare: How to Transition from Winter to Warmer Weather

Mar 5, 2025 | News

As the seasons change, so should your skincare routine! Winter’s cold, dry air often leaves skin dehydrated and dull, while spring brings warmer temperatures and increased humidity. To keep your skin glowing and balanced, follow these expert-approved skincare tips for transitioning from winter to spring.

  1. Swap Heavy Moisturizers for Lightweight Hydration

Winter calls for thick, rich creams to combat dryness, but as spring arrives, your skin needs lighter hydration to prevent congestion.

Try This: Switch to a gel-based or water-based moisturizer that hydrates without feeling heavy. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid and glycerin keep moisture locked in without clogging pores.

  1. Exfoliate (But Don’t Overdo It!) 

After months of cold weather, dead skin can build up, making your complexion look dull. Spring is the perfect time to gently exfoliate and reveal fresh, radiant skin!

Try This: Use a gentle chemical exfoliant like ZO Skin Health Exfoliating Polish 2-3 times a week to smooth texture and brighten your skin. Avoid over-exfoliating, as increased sun exposure can make skin more sensitive.

  1. SPF Is Non-Negotiable

Sun exposure increases in spring, making daily sunscreen a MUST. Even on cloudy days, UV rays can damage your skin, leading to premature aging and pigmentation.

Try This: Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen every morning, even if you’re indoors! We love ZO Skin Health Smart Tone SPF 50 for its lightweight, non-greasy finish.

  1. Lighten Up Your Makeup & Skincare Routine 

Spring is all about fresh, breathable skin! Say goodbye to heavy foundations and thick layers of skincare that may feel too occlusive in warmer weather.

Try This: Swap full-coverage foundation for a tinted SPF or lightweight BB cream and use hydrating serums instead of thick creams.

  1. Hydrate from the Inside Out

With rising temperatures, your skin may lose moisture faster, making hydration essential for that healthy glow.

Try This: Increase your water intake and incorporate hydrating foods like cucumbers, watermelon, and leafy greens. Pair with a hydrating facial like DiamondGlow for a skin-quenching boost!
