8 Easy Ways to Get Glowing Skin by Spring

We all know the basics of good skin by now, right? Always wear sunscreen, and if all else fails, fake it with a good bronze or some pretty blush. But here are a few secret tips that don’t take a lot of time or money. From tweaking your skin care routine to no-fuss secret foods that give your skin a boost, here are some.

 Don’t skip toner.

We know it’s hard enough to remember to moisturize every night, but adding toner to your daily routine could make all the 

difference to your face. It can help balance your skin’s pH level and shrink the look of pores—talk about a clean sweep.

 Use an illuminating BB cream.

The lightweight consistency of beauty balm is great for transitioning your beauty routine into the warmer-weather 

months, and it’s also packed with moisturizing and anti-aging benefits. Your skin will look sexy in one easy step.

Exercise daily.

Getting your heart pumping doesn't have to entail a marathon session at the gym. Quick 10-minute breaks throughout the 

day (like taking a walk around the block or climbing the stairs at work) can get your blood flowing and bring a natural flush 

of color to your skin. So simple right? How exciting!!

 Eat cucumbers.

Cucumbers contain vitamin C and caffeine acid, two antioxidants that help fend off wrinkles and sun damage. Vitamin C 

gives your skin a boost of collagen and elastin,  which keeps you looking radiant. Plus, you can save the left overs for a 

cooling eye mask or add them to your water for a refreshing twist on plain old H2O. hahaha!

 Use your night cream in the morning.

Because our night creams are typically more hydrating than daytime lotions, use one in the morning before applying 

sunblock for an extra dose of moisture. Just plain moisturize!

Exfoliate gently.

Beauty buffs, listen up! The secret to great skin might actually come in a bottle: Mix these Japanese buffing grains with 

water or your existing cleanser to promote cell turnover, which leaves skin baby soft.

Cut your shower time.

Trust us—there’s nothing we love more than a long, hot shower, but shortening your tub time and cooling the temperature 

of the water will do wonders for your body. Hot showers strip your skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry and patchy.

Drink green tea.

Not only does green tea taste great, but it’s also high in antioxidants like vitamin C, which help get rid of free radicals that 

damage skin cells. Plus, it reduces inflammation—a total skin saver right at your fingertips.
