Spring Break Skin-sational: Must-Have Skincare Essentials

Spring break is the perfect time to take a break from your regular routine and indulge in some much-needed relaxation. Whether you're going to the beach, taking a road trip, or just staying at home, taking care of your skin during spring break is essential. In this blog post, we'll discuss some of the top skincare essentials that you should pack for your spring break vacation.

1. Sunscreen: This is the most important skincare product that you should never forget to pack for your spring break trip. Sunscreen protects your skin from harmful UV rays and prevents sunburn and premature aging. Opt for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 and reapply every 2 hours if you're spending time outdoors such as EltaMD and/or our new Colorescience.

2. Moisturizer: Spending time in the sun and saltwater can dry out your skin. That's why it's important to pack a moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated and nourished. Look for a lightweight, oil-free formula that won't clog your pores, and apply it at least twice a day. 

3. Lip balm with SPF: Your lips are often overlooked when it comes to sun protection, but they need it too. Look for a lip balm with SPF 15 or higher to protect your lips from the sun's harmful rays. Jane Iredale's Lip Drink or Coola's perfect lip shades with shades of colorescience also on their way!

4. Cleanser: It's important to cleanse your skin to remove any dirt, sweat, and sunscreen residue that can clog your pores and lead to breakouts. Pack a gentle cleanser that's suitable for your skin type, and use it twice a day to keep your skin clean and healthy. ZO Skin Health Gentle Cleanser will not only help cleanse your skin & help remove dirt, sweat, and impurities but also hydrate the skin. 

5. Facial mist: A facial mist is a great way to refresh and hydrate your skin during a hot day. Look for a mist that contains hydrating ingredients like aloe vera or rose water, and spritz it on your face whenever you need a pick-me-up. We recommend Eminence Stone Crop Hydrating Mist to hydrate & soothe the skin, especially after a sunburn

6. Eye cream: Late nights and early mornings can take a toll on your eyes, making them look tired and puffy. Pack an eye cream to reduce puffiness and dark circles and keep your eyes looking bright and fresh. ZO Skin Health Eye Brightening Creme will reduce the look of tired eyes.

7. Body lotion: Just like your face, your body needs hydration too. Pack a body lotion to keep your skin soft and supple, especially after spending time in the sun and saltwater. Eminence's Strawberry Rhubarb Hyaluronic Body Lotion not only smells like summer but it is hydrating.

In conclusion, taking care of your skin during spring break is crucial to maintain its health and radiance. Remember to pack sunscreen, moisturizer, lip balm with SPF, cleanser, facial mist, eye cream, and body lotion to keep your skin looking and feeling its best. With these skincare essentials, you'll be ready to enjoy your vacation with confidence and beautiful skin.
