5 Tips to transition your beauty routine for spring!!
đˇđđđˇđđđˇ

Your cold weather beauty routine is really all about survival: keeping yourself covered, protected, and hydrated while battling harsh elements, freezing temps outdoors and moisture sapping heaters indoors. As the flowers blđ¸đ¸m, sun shines, and temperatures rise, your beauty routine has to evolve along with them.
Check out my tips for transitioning your beauty routine from cold weather to happy spring, from head to toe! đ
đ¸1. Say yes to sunscreen!
Yes, you should be applying it year âround (even in the dead of winter!), but now that the weather is warmer, youâll be outside more frequently with those limbs exposed. This means extra sun exposure, which equals more opportunities for freckles, wrinkles and damage.
đˇBe sure to apply at least a quarter-sized amount to your face, and if youâre outside for longer than two hours, reapply!
đ¸2. Love your lips!
Romance blossoms in spring, and so youâll want to make your lips their most kissable. The delicate area of your lips gets dry and flaky over winter.
đˇPerfect your pout by gently brushing with a toothbrush to exfoliate, then applying emollient balm or gloss to seal in moisture.
đ¸3. Treat your tresses!
After a long, cold winter, your skin isnât the only thing requiring TLC. Hair is likely to be lank, limp and desperately in need of (conditioning) love.
đˇApply a deep-conditioning mask in the shower at least once a week, and donât forget to use heat protection sprays while blow drying and styling.
And start the season off right by scheduling an appointment at the salon to get rid of dull, dead ends. đââď¸
đ¸4. Pamper your elbows and heels!
You take care of the rest of your body, but areas like elbows and heels are often neglected. Scales and rough, dead skin can build up over the colder months, so these areas require a two step approach.
đˇStart by exfoliating: You can use a granular scrub, a foot file or even a washcloth to tackle rough skin. Finish with a healthy dose of daily hydration.
đ¸5. Nighttime pedicure prep!
Spring means open toes and feet on display, girl!
đˇGet pedicure ready by applying a thick layer of moisturizing cream to feet before bed. Top your tootsies with socks to lock in hydration while you sleep. Youâll have baby soft feet by morning!
