I’ve been basking in the glow of all this extra sunshine in New York City as often as humanly possible. Seriously, there is nothing that can boost your
mental health
like leaving the office while it’s still light out—and arriving back home 40 minutes later, and the sun
still
hasn’t set. More sunshine, more time spent outside, more forgetting that I’m actually allergic to a ton of trees (but it’s still worth it to go to the park a few times a week because the landscape is so pretty in bloom). Still, I can’t forget that a change in seasons and temperature also means it’s time to take stock of
my skincare routine
.
Spring
is doing her thing, and that means that my skin is craving a whole new set of products and ingredients to feel soft, hydrated, and irritation-free. The
heavy creams
of the past five months are being relegated to the back of my bathroom cabinet in favor of lighter formulations, my
sunscreen
application is becoming more diligent, and my double cleansing regimen is back in action since, yes, I’m already starting to
sweat
on my daily commute. Luckily, a few easy product swaps are enough to maintain clear, glowing skin until summer. Keep scrolling to discover everything I reach for in my spring skincare routine.
Double Cleansing Duo
Between the NYC grime and extra sweat, I return to my double cleaning regimen in the summer to thoroughly reset my skin at the end of the day. A
cleansing oil
and a gentle face wash are my go-to products to keep my skin healthy and happy.
Tata Harper
Nourishing Makeup Removing Oil Cleanser
This formula feels like a hug for your skin. Luxurious botanicals cocoon my face while removing everything from
waterproof mascara
to pore-clogging debris. It’s also ideal for a pampering
face massage
.
Dieux
Baptism Hydrating + Pore Clarifying Gentle Foaming Gel Cleanser
I adore this
gel cleanser
for its gentle formula that never leaves my skin stripped or dry, but it still has a bit of that satisfying foam that makes me feel like my skin is
really
clean. It’s a true staple in my routine.
Mighty Mists
There’s nothing like a refreshing
face mist
in the morning or even during the afternoon as a mid-day pick me up. It’s a sensorial treat and helps to rehydrate the skin after copious sun exposure.
Tower 28
SOS Daily Hypochlorous Acid Spray
If you’re new to the
hypochlorous acid spray
game, allow me to explain: it’s a skin-soothing superstar that calms inflammation and speeds up recovery, whether that’s breakouts or general skin healing. I keep a bottle of this formula at my desk, in my bathroom, and a mini version in my bag at all times.
Eadem
Mami Wata Barrier Strengthening Face Mist
Barrier repair
doesn’t stop just because the temperature is finally above freezing, which is where this strengthening formula comes into play. The ultra-fine mist is such a delight to use, and I really feel like my skin drinks it in for added hydration and soothing benefits.
Breathable Barrier Support
A lightweight moisturizer is a must once spring rolls around to maintain hydration without
clogging my pores
with extra perspiration and heat.
Tatcha
The Dewy Skin Cream Line-Plumping Moisturizer
I adore this formula and have used it in the spring and summer for years. It has the most velvety texture that sinks into the skin like a dream, and it leaves you with the most radiant glow all day long.
COSRX
The Ceramide Skin Barrier Moisturizer for Sensitive Skin
This is the GOAT of my moisturizer collection and a true
K-beauty staple
. It’s gentle enough for
sensitive skin
, super breathable, but it still leaves my dry skin adequately hydrated, even on the day after using my prescription
retinol
.
Silky Sunscreen
Daily sunscreen
doesn’t change with the time of year, but I definitely make sure to reapply throughout the day to maintain adequate protection. Using a formula that feels creamy and comfortable on the skin makes that process so much more enjoyable.
Good Weather Skin
The One Daily Sun Cream SPF 30 Mineral Sunscreen
I’ve been obsessed with
this SPF
since it launched last year, and it’s still a beloved formula in my sun care routine. It’s a
mineral formula
, so it’s great for anyone struggling with
melasma
(guilty), leaves zero white cast, and it sinks into the skin like a luxury face moisturizer.
Ultra Violette
Preen Screen SPF 50 Fa
