3 WINTER TO SPRING SKINCARE TIPS FOR THE #GIRLONTHEGO

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Olay. The opinions and text are all mine.

Let’s talk about winter skincare. Oooomph. My skin takes a beating in the winter time. I sit in my office, day in and day out, with a little mini heater (so that I don’t run our furnace non-stop). And this little mini heater wrecks my skin. You want to know how I know? I cannot drink water fast enough. The feeling of pure thirst is upon me daily. So I can only imagine what my skin is truly feeling. This is when I start looking forward to spring so I can come out of this dry heat induced cocoon. With a change in season, comes a change in skincare routines. I begin adjusting the types of creams I’m putting on my face. I implement a bit more SPF into my routine because I know I’ll start spending more time outdoors. And I try and continue to drink all of the water. I’ve compiled a list of some winter to spring skincare tips for the #girlonthego because I know that having a cheat sheet can come in handy when you’ve got a million other things on your mind!

TIP #1: Switch your moisturizer to something lighter.
There’s a big difference between winter and summer and there should be a big difference in what you are using for a moisturizer in the various seasons. I’m not saying that you need to switch things up every time we roll into a new season, but you should at least be making a switch from winter into spring. Winter moisturizer’s should have a thicker consistency. Spring/Summer moisturizer’s need to be a bit thinner.

Olay has a fabulous moisturizer (it’s actually one of my go-to’s) called Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Cream. It’s an advanced anti-aging moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide and Amino Peptides. These ingredients combine to pack a 1-2 punch by hydrating your skin and improving your skin’s elasticity. It feels like creamy butter when applying and immediately begins to be absorbed into your skin. Combine this with Olay Regenerist Regenerating Serum (a super lightweight serum that absorbs just as soon as you put it on your face) and your skin will quickly be on its way out of winter and excitedly shouting “Bring on Spring!”

TIP #2: Keep drinking water!
Just because we’re switching seasons, doesn’t mean you get a hallpass to put the brakes on your H20 consumption. It’s just as important in the springtime as it is during the winter months, so keep that water cup nearby!!!

TIP #3: Keep exfoliating…but pull back the reins a bit.
It’s true that our skin tends to dry up a bit during the winter months, keeping us in the exfoliating game. However, as springtime begins to descend upon us, we need to slow down so that we don’t damage our skin. Aim to exfoliate 1-2 times per week.

Don’t let spring creep up on you and catch you off guard! Start planning your course of action to get your skin ready for the gorgeous, warmer weather! Add the Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream & Olay Regenerist Regenerating Serum into your lineup and you’ll have Tip #1 in the bag!
