Spring Skin Care

Spring Skin Care Updates
Are you still stuck in winter skin care mode? It's time to lighten it up.
By Lisa Kovalovich

Sure, your skin care routine may have worked wonders all winter -- but when warm weather breaks, it can leave your skin looking less-than-perfect. Most dermatologists recommend tweaking your routine, since the heavier products you use in winter may be too much for the spring and summer months. Here's how to update:

Oily skin

* Switch to a gel facial cleanser, which goes deeper than the lotion you may have used earlier in the year.
* If pimples are a problem, add a toner with witch hazel to wipe away pore-clogging oil.
* Choose a light lotion moisturizer with SPF 15 or higher; if your skin is becoming too greasy for a moisturizer, look for a gel-based sunscreen and skip the lotion altogether.


Dry skin

* Try a rinse-off lotion cleanser instead of the thicker tissue-off cream you may have used during winter.
* Skip toner, or use sparingly in only the steamiest, most humid weather.
* Look for a moisturizer containing SPF to ward off the sun's rays, and AHAs to slough off flaky patches.
* Apply your moisturizer at night, too.
