Scrub, lubricate and hair removal
After a severe winter, the first rays of sunshine are more than welcome. It’s spring! Before we can fully enjoy the first hours on the terrace, a little preparation is needed. Get ready for spring in five steps.
1. Scrub
Fluctuating temperatures and dry air have taken their toll. It’s high time to pamper the skin even more. Exfoliating removes dead skin cells and stimulates blood circulation. With a radiant clean skin as a result. In addition, care products are better absorbed by the skin with regular scrubbing.
When you think of exfoliating, your face may be the first thing you think of, but you can also exfoliate the skin of your body. Exfoliating once a week is sufficient. Doing this in the evening gives the skin time to recover during your night’s rest.
2. Lubricate
A relaxing mask or rich moisturizing cream is a second necessary step. Masks are available for both the face and body. Also apply a daily body lotion or oil, preferably after showering on a still damp skin. That way it is even better absorbed into the skin. With a nice shiny result.
3. Hair removal
Although the skirts and shorts are still a while away, it is high time to tackle excess hair. Various hair removal methods are available for this, both for men and women.
4. Hands and feet
Winter is also disastrous for our hands and feet. Dry cuticles, wrinkly hands and calloused feet don’t really give a spring feeling.
Hands hardly contain sebaceous glands and because you wash your hands with some regularity, they lose a lot of moisture and fat. So rubbing your hands twice a day is absolutely not a luxury.
An extra pick-me-up for your hands: apply a moisturizing hand cream before going to sleep, put on cotton gloves and let the cream do its work all night.
Do you also suffer from dry feet and calluses? Then get started quickly with this step-by-step plan and keep your feet in good condition.
5. Prevent Spring Fatigue
Go to bed on time and ensure sufficient regularity. That way your body can recover best. By going outside and exercising more, you will feel fitter.
When you are outside, you receive more sunlight, which is conducive to the amount of vitamin D in your body. Vitamin D is important in the production of hormones, which in turn influence your mood. Vitamins also play an important role in fatigue. A healthy diet provides both vitamin B and vitamin D.
Summer suddenly seems a lot closer because of the first days of spring. With more exercise and healthy food you can kill two birds with one stone. You prevent spring fatigue and prepare your body for the summer. Before you know it, it’s time for the swimwear again!
