British Summer Time is officially over and the outside temperature definitely seems to have gotten the memo. Sure, there are still pockets of warmth in the sunshine, but early mornings and dark evenings have more chill in the air.
During this confusing fashion time (Is it time for boots? Are gloves overkill?), I’m transitioning my body care to keep it hydrated during the colder months when there’s less humidity in the air, even if my skincare hasn't quite required facial oil yet.
Winter skin saviours
Although we may not be at the winter solstice yet, the weather outside is starting to look frightful. And playing havoc with our skin.
I have written before that as the seasons change, so should our skincare. Hopefully, you’ve already taken notice of this and have upped your skin hydration game as needed. What can get missed in this seasonal exchange is body care, which I wanted to make note of today.
Baby, it's still cold outside
Summer skincare
Summer’s long, warm days encourage us to spend time doing activities specific to the season and as a result, we often curtail some of our regular routines, like skincare. You’re probably wearing less make-up than normal, which may mean you spend less time cleansing and treating your skin each day. In an attempt to maximise your outdoor fun, here are some summer skincare practices I like to employ to keep my skin looking good throughout the season.
Wearing more layers? It's time to change your skincare
For most of us, our daily skincare regime is as routine as brushing our teeth. And while well-established habits make it easy for us to accomplish a task, as the weather changes, it’s important to re-examine what you’re using on your skin to be sure it’s right for what you need at the moment.
