Spring skincare
Now that spring is in full swing (at least here in Finland) I'd like to hear about everyone's spring skincare. Do you have a separate routine for spring or do you simply swap products as temperatures and the weather changes. I'm also curious to hear what this time of year is like where you live; are the temperatures rising, or air getting drier or more humid etc. How does your skin react to it?
I'll leave in the comments my own routine changes and what the spring is like here🌷

Here's my spring skincare: The spring here is a rather classic spring that comes with having four seasons; temperatures and humidity rise from below freezing and very dry to pleasant levels and the sun starts to come out more. 🌷Of course there's the back and forth of warmer and colder periods before warmth wins over the cold of winter, and that wreaks havoc on most people's skin here. As for my own routine, I've usually just switched to lighter products one by one as my skin starts to feel less dehydrated and becomes more like a typical oily combo skin instead of dry combo; I use S.Nature Aqua Squalane Moisturizer in the winter during the day, but switch to Numbuz:n's No. 1 Pantothenic B5 Active Soothing Cream for the summer (and move S.Nature to night cream). I also go from doing only a water rinse to using a water based cleanser in the morning. Currently I'm using Anua's 8 Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Gentle Foaming Cleanser. I don't really like it though, it strips my skin, so I'm open to suggestions on what to try next 😊 I also change my toner to a lighter one, and am now trying to choose a new one to test.
Kiira, thank you so much for this amazing topic idea! ❤️ I bet spring in the land of Moomins is absolutely beautiful! My oily-skin friend also uses S.Nature as a night cream in winter — same as you! 🥹 I’m a bit more on the dry side myself, so I’ve actually recommended it a lot to my dry-skin clients during summer. I’ve been testing so many viral products that my daily routine is completely different every day 😂 But with the bigger temperature swings lately, I’ve been doing sheet masks more often to give my skin a little extra treat. In Korea it’s warm enough that some people are already wearing short sleeves, but if I go too light on skincare my makeup tends to pill and just doesn’t sit well 😭 So I make sure to layer a rich serum and cream morning and night no matter what! I always reach for the CYoung cream, and the Normal Skin Skincare Set we have in the market right now is also great for this kind of weather! As for cleansers, check out the video going up today — there’s a less-stripping option in there that might be just what you’re looking for 😉 Sending love! 💕
