On Entering Spring Gently...
We must change the way we think about skin along with the seasonal shifts. After winter, the skin doesn’t need a dramatic change—it needs careful and tender support. I often see clients eager to switch to lighter products or intensify exfoliation as soon as the weather warms up; but spring is not a time for extremes. It's time to listen.
The skin in spring is still recalibrating from winter’s extremes. It may be dry, reactive, or uneven. This is the moment to reinforce its natural functions without overwhelming them. Think of hydration over stripping, nourishment over stimulation, and gradual renewal rather than quick fixes. With the right care this transition phase can set the foundation for a healthier and more resilient complexion in the upcoming months of summer.
What Winter Leaves Behind
The effects of winter don’t vanish with the change in weather. Cold temperatures, harsh wind, and dry indoor air continue to shape the skin’s condition well into spring. These factors compromise the skin’s hydrolipid barrier–leaving it depleted and vulnerable.
Common Focus During Spring:
-
Dehydration and Tightness
The skin loses moisture and feels itchy and uncomfortable. Hot showers are comforting in winter but often worsens the effect by stripping away natural oils from skin. -
Peeling and Rough Texture
A buildup of dead cells dulls the skin complexion. With gentle exfoliation—skin can be saved from appearing tired and uneven. -
Redness and Irritation
Shifts in temperature and weakened capillaries often result in sensitivity or inflammation. Despite the seasonal change, daily sun protection remains essential. -
Cracking and Micro-Tears
Skin lacking elasticity is extra prone to small breaks in its barrier. Heavier creams alone are not enough—deep hydration is required at a cellular level. -
Flare-ups of Chronic Conditions
Eczema, rosacea, and psoriasis remain common conditions for skin in continuing rebalance - Lips show signs of winter stress: Dryness, flaking, and cracking brought on by dehydration, nutrient deficiency, and environmental exposure.
Addressing these concerns early prevents seasonal discomforts and creates a stronger foundation for the warmer months ahead.
What the Skin Needs Now?
As we move into spring; the focus should be on restoring balance. The skin requires thoughtful, cautious, and layered support, instead of a sudden shift.
• Hydration with Intention
Spring is the time to embrace extra hydration. While the skin may no longer crave rich winter textures–it still needs moisture. Begin with lightweight serums containing humectants like hyaluronic acid to draw water into the skin and follow with barrier-repair creams to seal it in.
• Barrier Reinforcement
Strengthening the skin’s natural defences is integral. This means avoiding harsh exfoliants and focusing exclusively on calming and nutrient-dense formulations that rebuild resilience over time.
• Gentle Renewal
To address the buildup of dullness and dead cells from winter–incorporate mild exfoliation that is just enough to prompt clarity and renewal without any aggression.
• Ongoing Sun Protection
UV exposure increases in spring but the skin’s protective mechanisms are still recovering. SPF must remain a non-negotiable part of your daily renewal and reinforcement routine.
• Targeted Lip Care
Lips need more than a balm—they benefit from the same layered approach as the face. Start with a hydrating serum and follow with a protective barrier to seal in moisture and defend against the elements.
Spring Treatments at Libi & Daughters:
At Libi & Daughters—Spring is not a season for aggressive intervention. It’s a time for intelligent and carefully curated support. Our skin and health engagements are carefully selected to work with the skin’s innate rhythms—focusing on restoring vitality and in preparing the complexion for Summer months.
• Biorevitalization
A deep hydration treatment that infuses the skin with hyaluronic acid—improving skin’s elasticity and radiance while addressing the lingering dryness from winter.
• Sciton BBL Photorejuvenation
BroadBand Light therapy targets the skin’s early pigmentation, uneven tone, and damage due to sun exposure. It stimulates collagen while preventing the usual melanin accumulation of summer.
• Cleansing & Peelings
Throughout winter the skin accumulates dead cells, pollutants, and barrier-disrupting buildup. Spring is the ideal time to reintroduce professional cleansing that ranges from gentle ultrasonic techniques to enzymatic or chemical peels tailored to your skin. These methods refine texture, clear congestion, and restore clarity, while preserving the skin’s integrity.
• Exosome Therapy
An advanced regenerative treatment used to help reduce inflammation, support healing, and even the skin’s complexion. In spring we incorporate exosomes into specialised depigmentation protocols—paired with peels and delivery methods such as microneedling and laser to restore balance and prepare the skin for increased sun exposure.
• LED Light Therapy
Targeted LED therapy is used to address seasonal pigmentation concerns. Red and near-infrared wavelengths help reduce melanin activity, calm sensitivity, and enhance the overall effectiveness of depigmentation and rejuvenation protocols.
Each treatment is adapted to the individual’s skin condition and seasonal needs; designed not to push the skin—but to guide it back into balance.
