Skincare Tips to Survive this Easter

Posted by Botany,

As Easter approaches, we often find ourselves immersed in preparations for gatherings with family and friends and inevitably overindulging in our favourite foods and the ever-present temptation of chocolate. Whether it’s beach outings or backyard barbecues, amidst all the activities, it’s crucial not to neglect our skincare routines. The change in weather, indulgent treats, and busy schedules can take a toll on our skin, but with these skincare tips you can ensure your complexion stays radiant and healthy this Easter.

Hydration is Key: Autumn weather can be deceptively dry, especially when combined with conditioned environments, leading to skin dehydration. Drinking plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin hydrated from within and using a lightweight hydrating serum in the morning can nourish and moisturise skin. Our DNA Serum Hydrate incorporates hyaluronic acid, known for its ability to attract and lock in moisture. Paired with one of our face mists for on-the-go hydration, it creates the perfect combination to ensure a glowing complexion.

Shield Against the Sun: Despite Easter falling being at the start of autumn, the weather can still be warm and sunny. Protect your skin from harmful UV rays by applying sunscreen with a high SPF rating. Opt for a water-resistant formula if you plan on spending time at the beach or engaging in outdoor activities. Reapply sunscreen every two hours, especially if you’re sweating or swimming.

Incorporate Antioxidants: Indulging in Easter treats is part of the fun, but it’s essential to maintain a balance. Incorporating fruits, like berries, which are high in antioxidants into your diet can help combat free radical damage and keep your skin looking youthful. The entire Botany Native Flora range contain native ingredients such as Emu Apple, Desert Lime and Kangaroo Paw which are exceptionally strong in antioxidants that rejuvenate and nourish skin while boosting its defence against environmental stressors. So, whenever you require an extra lift, be it morning, noon or night, we have you covered.

Gentle Cleansing: After a day of outdoor adventures or family gatherings, it’s essential to cleanse your skin thoroughly to remove dirt, sweat, and sunscreen residue. A gentle cleanser that won’t strip your skin of its natural oils, like our Native Flora Face Cleanser, is the ideal solution and being part of the Native Flora range it is packed with antioxidants to boot. Consider double cleansing if you’ve been wearing heavy makeup or waterproof sunscreen to ensure your skin is thoroughly clean.

Prioritise Sleep and Relaxation: With celebrations often extending well into the evening, it’s crucial to prioritise sleep and relaxation for the sake of your skin’s health. Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep each night to allow your skin to repair and regenerate. Additionally, take some time out to practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or meditation to reduce stress levels, which can contribute to skin issues like acne and inflammation.

This Easter, ensure your skin stays healthy and radiant by following these essential skincare tips. By protecting your skin from the sun’s rays, staying hydrated, embracing gentle cleansing, including antioxidants and prioritising rest, you can revel in the holiday celebrations while maintaining a healthy and resilient complexion.
