Spring Skincare: Tips for Exfoliation and Hydration

As winter fades and nature begins to bloom, it’s time to refresh your skincare routine and give your skin the same revival. Spring is all about shedding layers—and that includes dead skin cells! With a few simple tweaks, you can prep your skin for sunnier days and keep it glowing all season long.

🌸 Exfoliation: Revive Your Skin After Winter

Winter often leaves skin feeling dry, flaky, and dull. The best way to welcome the new season? Regular exfoliation. Sloughing away dead skin cells helps unclog pores and promotes a smoother, brighter complexion.

Aim to exfoliate 2–3 times per week, depending on your skin type. If you're short on time, opt for a dual-action body scrub that moisturises as it exfoliates. Our Puremess Grapefruit Body Scrub is a gentle yet effective solution, enriched with coconut oil to nourish while it polishes your skin.

💧 Hydration: Quench Your Skin’s Thirst

With warmer temperatures, your skin might not need a heavy-duty moisturiser—but it still needs hydration. Swap thick creams for lighter, nutrient-rich options that keep skin supple without feeling greasy.

And don’t forget: up to 80% of premature ageing is caused by sun exposure. UV rays generate free radicals that break down collagen and elastin, leading to wrinkles, pigmentation, and loss of firmness. That’s why SPF50+ is a non-negotiable—yes, even in spring! And don’t overlook your lips—they’re just as vulnerable to sun damage.

Our Rejuvenating Face Cream and Replenishing Skin Serum are both packed with hyaluronic acid, tamanu oil, and pumpkin seed oil to deeply hydrate, even out tone, and reduce the appearance of fine lines.

🌿 Top Tips for Spring Skin Success

  • Skip the hot showers: Scalding water strips natural oils. Instead, use warm water and moisturise while your skin is still damp to lock in hydration.

  • Hydrate from the inside out: Keep your water bottle handy. Staying hydrated helps your skin stay plump and radiant.

  • Use antioxidant-rich products: These help protect against environmental stressors as the weather changes.

  • Exfoliate your lips too! A gentle sugar scrub once a week can keep your pout soft and smooth.


Ready to get your glow back this spring? With a few adjustments and the right products, your skin will look—and feel—refreshed, radiant, and ready for the sunshine.
