Seeing nature this morning through the glass of French doors, I notice that spring has begun to sprout, though you have to look closely.   Inspite of a bit of a chilling breeze and 20-degree temperature, under a crusty  top layer of soil it is happening—the renewal of plant life. What can be felt rather than seen is the seasons.

Among nature in it’s winter slumber, trees shed their leaves in self-protection to prevent loosing too much water, while leaves of evergreen trees act as a moisture barrier.  Some plants are in a resting stage, while others survive on nutrients stored underground.  As this season of sleep turns to one of renewal, the body, as well, joins nature in preparing for longer, warmer  days ahead.

You are in the right season to ready your skin for a fresh face in springtime.  Choosing the right skin care regimen will make a difference in whether your skin is healthy and  radiant or becomes more problematic from irritations . 

Dry skin not only feels tight and can be itchy, have you also noticed that dry skin reflects light poorly.  That is why dry skin looks dull.

Oily skin presents numerous issues. Though the skin needs some oil, too much clogs the pores and isn’t fun or pretty.

Combination skin  is often synonymous of the infamous T-zone  of the nose, forehead, and chin.  The challenge is to   balance over-stimulated oil glands and the dryer skin conditions around the cheeks.

If you haven’t already done so, spend time with your skin.  Become aware of  your skin type and keep-it-simple-solutions that are unique to your skin for its long-term health.   

Springtime is coming, and the season is meant to preparate for summer.  We’re here to prepare you as well.  Let Simplicité help you put your fresh face forward with a glowing appearance or spring, summer and beyond.
