GuideTop Tips to Revive Your Skin, Brows & Lashes After Winter’s Chill

Winter’s harsh elements can leave their mark on your skin, brows, and lashes. As spring approaches, it’s the perfect time to revitalise and refresh your beauty routine. Here are our top tips to help your skin, brows, and lashes bloom:

Skin:

• Hydration is Key: Winter’s dry air can dehydrate your skin, leaving it looking dull and feeling rough. Switch to a richer moisturiser and apply a hydrating serum for an extra boost. Don’t forget to drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out.
• Exfoliate Gently: Gently exfoliate your skin 1-2 times a week to remove dead skin cells and reveal a brighter, smoother complexion. Be gentle, as over-exfoliation can irritate your skin.
• Embrace SPF: Spring sunshine comes with harmful UV rays. Protect your skin year-round with a daily broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, even on cloudy days.

Brows:

• Condition and Nourish: Winter’s dryness can affect your brows, making them appear brittle and prone to breakage. Use a brow conditioner or oil (like castor or coconut oil) to nourish and strengthen your brows.
• Shape and Groom: With the new season, consider refining your brow shape. If you’re unsure, seek a professional’s help for shaping and trimming.
• Fill and Define: Sparse brows? Use a brow pencil or powder in a shade that matches your natural brow colour to fill in gaps and define your brows.

Lashes:

• Nourish with Care: Similar to brows, lashes benefit from conditioning. Apply a lash serum or oil (like castor or olive oil) at night to promote lash growth and prevent breakage.
• Be Gentle: Avoid harsh rubbing and tugging on your lashes, especially when removing mascara. Use a gentle makeup remover and a cotton pad to remove eye makeup.
• Embrace Mascara: Spring is the perfect time to experiment with different mascara formulas. Choose a volumizing or lengthening mascara to enhance your lashes and complete your look.

Bonus Tip: Consider incorporating a facial mask into your routine 1-2 times a week. Choose a mask that suits your skin’s needs, like a hydrating mask for dry skin or a clarifying mask for oily skin.
