7 Sensational Spring Break Skin Care Tips ...

One of the most important tips I can give you in terms of spring break skin care is to get a quality, full-spectrum sunblock. Sunblock is a physical blocker while sunscreen uses chemicals that allow the skin to absorb the sun’s rays without burning. The chemicals in sunscreen are basically free radicals that can cause skin to lose its suppleness over time.

If it’s been awhile since you last purchased moisturizer, it might be time to invest in a lighter formula. Thick creams were appropriate for the winter but they can be a little much in the warmer months. Look for a lightweight moisturizer for your face and body that won’t leave you feeling greasy but still provides sufficient hydration.

Sloughing off dead skin cells is a must in any skin care routine regardless of the season. Exfoliation helps you get a closer shave, helps self-tanners go on more even and they’ll leave your face and body feeling soft and smooth in case you come in close contact with a cutie!

I don’t know about you, but whenever I get a new beauty or skin care product, I get so excited to use it that I want to use it immediately. There’s nothing wrong with that but if you’re getting close to your vacay or a special event, you could end up with a bad reaction. Use products your skin is used to and don’t use new products too aggressively to avoid irritating skin.

The next skin care tip is to schedule any skin care treatments like facials, waxes and tanning a few days before your embark upon your trip. You want to make sure your tan develops properly and ensure that you’re not faced with donning a swimsuit with irritated skin from waxing or shaving. Same thing goes with facials; your face might be red or irritated right after the treatment, so give it time to heal.

Going easy on skin care products and makeup is a good idea while you’re on vacation. You want to have your skin care and beauty essentials, but toting around a million lotions and potions or going to the beach with heavy makeup can look and feel awkward. Keep skin care and makeup light so you can focus on having fun!

The last skin care tip for spring break is to stay on regimen. It takes time and effort to achieve beautiful, healthy skin, so don’t undo all your hard work while you’re away. Take the time to remove all of the dirt, sweat and makeup off of your face and follow up with moisturizer. You don’t have to go all out, but it’s important to not let your skin care regimen fall by the wayside!

Achieving and maintaining healthy skin while you’re on vacation is totally possible! Follow these few easy skin care tips and you can enjoy clear, glowing skin while you’re out and about. I hope you have the best spring break trip ever! Do you have any spring break skin care tips you’d like to share?
