How to prepare your skin for the seasonal change: beauty tips to welcome spring

It's time to say it (and sing it loudly like the Beatles): Here Comes The Sun! Yes, spring is in the air: are you ready to get rid of that dreaded winter greyness and dull complexion? The seasonal change doesn't just concern your wardrobe: with the arrival of longer, warmer, and sunnier days to spend outdoors, your daily beauty routine also needs a good refresh. And your skin needs new, renewed attention, focusing on hydration, energy, and protection. How? Mirror in hand and... let Rhea Cosmetics reveal it to you!

Well exfoliated is half done…

Winter leaves quite a few marks on the skin, leaving it dull, grey, and thicker. As the cold subsides and temperatures rise, spring becomes synonymous with rebirth and renewal (yes, even cellular): exfoliating the skin allows for the removal of dead cells and accumulated toxins from the previous months. Not only that, it promotes circulation, cellular turnover, and tissue oxygenation, instantly brightening the epidermis, allowing it to breathe again.

During this time of year, regular exfoliation of the face and body, at least twice a week, helps restore light, tone, and uniformity to the skin:

- For the face, rely on the super overnight treatment ExfoNight: it gently exfoliates the skin, accelerates cellular turnover, purifies and refines the skin texture, and lightens blemishes. Just focus on sleeping; it'll do the rest! Use it, if necessary, as an intensive treatment every evening, instead of or on top of your usual cream; integrated into your beauty routine, use it a couple of times a week. After overnight application, rinse off in the morning with lukewarm water.

- For the body, opt for ExfoGel: a hydrogel that ensures effective yet extremely gentle exfoliation, which doesn't irritate the skin and absolutely should NOT be rinsed off, for a unique tissue-relipidating action that prevents dryness and dehydration. Apply it to dry skin with circular motions, massaging until absorbed.

The season of lightness (and SPF) 

Con i primi tepori primaverili, le ghiandole sebacee sono stimolate a produrre una maggior quantità di sebo: è importante, quindi, mettere da parte le formule invernali dalle texture più dense e corpose, dando il via libera a consistenze più leggere, fresche e impalpabili, che non appesantiscano, senza però mai rinunciare al corretto apporto di idratazione e nutrimento. In questa missione, la nostra crema viso illuminante [mi]crobioma diventa il tuo insostituibile alleato: Radiant [mi] è invincibile nel restituire vita e colore alla pelle, grazie ai super ingredienti nutrienti e antiossidanti - tra cui la Vitamina C - racchiusi nella formula, che agiscono fin dalla prima applicazione. Per il corpo, il prodotto che non può mancare nella tua salle de bain è 2Drain: questa formula concentrata - ad azione drenante e detox - metterà le ali… alle tue gambe!

With the first warmth of spring, the sebaceous glands are stimulated to produce a greater amount of sebum: it’s important, therefore, to set aside winter formulas with denser and heavier textures, giving the green light to lighter, fresher, and more palpable textures that do not weigh down the skin, without ever giving up the correct supply of hydration and nourishment. In this mission, our illuminating face cream [mi]crobioma becomes your irreplaceable ally: Radiant[mi] is unbeatable in restoring life and colour to the skin, thanks to the super-nutrient and antioxidant ingredients - including Vitamin C - encapsulated in the formula, which act from the very first application. For the body, the product that cannot be missing in your salle de bain is 2Drain: this concentrated formula - with draining and detoxifying action - will give wings... to your legs!

Are you forgetting something? Essential all year round, sunscreen becomes truly indispensable in spring: remember to apply a moisturizing sunscreen like DailyShield every day, after your favourite face cream, to prevent damage and signs of aging caused by UVA and UVB rays.

Spring... is served!

Tell me what you eat, and I'll tell you what skin you have! With the change of season, hydration becomes a key factor for beautiful and healthy skin, even at the dining table: try to drink plenty of water, at least 2 Liters a day, along with herbal teas or infusions based on dandelion, cranberry, and lemon juice, for intense purifying and detoxifying action. Additionally, follow a balanced and as healthy as possible diet: add cashews and almonds to your table, which - rich in healthy fibres, fatty acids, and proteins - are effective in keeping the skin radiant. Seasonal fruits like strawberries and berries are also rich in antioxidants, known for their positive effect on skin health.
