Easter Renewals: Why Spring is the Perfect Time to Refresh Your Skincare

April 18, 2025

How would you describe the feeling of Easter? Commonly used adjectives for describing Easter include hope, renewal, resurrection, joy, and boldness.

Spring is always accompanied by Easter, which also inspires feelings of freshness.

Just like Easter celebrates life after death, so does spring celebrate the warmth after an intense winter. The combo of Easter and spring inspires in most people a renewed zeal to become better in all they do and the need for a skincare refresh.

As melanin girlies, embrace this feeling to help renew your commitment to your skincare routine. This article is your spring renewal refresher class, filled with tips on the best skincare routine. You also get free access to our AI-powered tool to know your skin type.

Tips on the Best Skincare Routine for a Healthy Glow this Easter

You need these tips if you fall under any of these 3 categories:

You have a consistent skincare routine, but it’s not working.
You are entirely new to skincare routines.
You need skincare tips this spring.

Now, let’s look at these 4 tips.

1. Start With the Right Products

Don’t mix and match multiple products from multiple brands because of their exoteric promises of ‘magical skin glow.’

Instead:

Check the product’s reviews from people with your skin type.
Check their ingredients. Avoid products filled with dangerous chemicals. The British Skin Foundation has highlighted triclosan, octinoxate, propylparaben, and so on as some of the ingredients to avoid.
Use the right products for each season. For instance, swap your heavyweight cream-based products for lighter formulas this spring. Lightweight products are perfect for spring because they leave no oily or greasy residue that can clog skin pores.

2. Know Your Skin Type

If you do not know your skin type before building a routine, you are setting your skin up for disaster. Here are different skin types to note:

Normal Skin: Normal skin is usually smooth in texture and even in tone because it has balanced oil levels. People with normal skin have few breakouts. They may feel they do not need maintenance, but this is a myth, as hormonal imbalances or changing weather conditions can affect skin health. Maintain normal skin with gentle products and avoid doing too much.
Oily Skin: This skin is characterized by enlarged pores, a shiny or greasy appearance, and high production of sebum, making it prone to blackheads, whiteheads, and acne. Lightweight and non-comedogenic products are perfect for this skin type.
Dry Skin: This skin has low sebum production, leaving it flaky, tight, dull-looking, and with rough patches. Cream-based products and rich moisturizers are perfect.

3. Build a Morning and Evening Skincare Routine.

Now that you know your skin type, you can have the right morning and evening routine with the following steps.

Morning Routine

Your morning routine should follow these procedures:

Exfoliate, Cleanse & Prep: Before you apply products, you need to remove buildup, balance pH, and prepare skin for the application of active ingredients. Gentle, hydrating, and non-stripping cleansers are advised, especially for spring. Use gentle exfoliants according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Treat & Correct: Now that you have cleansed your skin, you need to brighten it by using products specifically designed to solve skin care concerns like uneven tone, hyperpigmentation, and dullness. You can also apply serum at this stage.

Moisturize & Seal: Next, use products that lock in hydration and strengthen the skin barrier. Lightweight moisturizers are good skincare solutions.

Protect: Now that you have taken care of your skin, environmental forces are going to target it. For winter, it is the dry air, but for spring, it’s the warm and humid weather. Hence, you need to protect your skin from UV rays and prevent dark spots or premature aging. Use sunscreen compatible with the products previously used in the right frequency.

Evening Routine

You have worked, sweated, and been exposed to dirt. Your skin needs a refresh.

Deep Cleanse: In this phase, you remove dirt, makeup, sunscreen, and pollutants that might have been contaminating your skin without stripping off your skin oils. Use gentle cleaners.
Tone & Refresh: You can use your toner at this stage.
Treat & Repair: Like the morning routine, target specific skin concerns like hyperpigmentation, acne, texture, or aging in this stage.
Replenish and Seal: Restore hydration, support overnight repair, and seal in the moisture.

Now that you know the different skincare procedures, classify, stack, and use your products accordingly. However, you can stick with the brand instructions for the best way to use the products.

4. Switch from Heavy to Lightweight Products in Spring

During winter, your skin needs as much hydration as possible to protect it from the cold breeze. But with the heat in spring comes more sebum and sweat, making heavy winter products counterproductive.

This spring, stock up on lightweight products, especially if you have oily skin. (Remember to take the AI-powered quiz to know your skin type.) Heavy products could clog your pores and cause massive breakouts. Lightweight products, on the other hand, get quickly absorbed by your skin, keeping it hydrated and refreshed.
