4 skincare trends that will dominate this spring

Here are the skincare trends to watch out for in spring/summer 2023.

Just as you change your wardrobe to adapt to the temperature, your skin also faces many changes depending on the time of year. The dermis changes with the seasons, and each time we welcome a new season, the skin adjusts its condition, appearance and needs. That’s why it’s so important that you know what adjustments to make to your skincare routine are necessary to keep your skin looking its best.

Skincare and technology

The boundaries between technology and the beauty industry have officially merged. Now, more than ever, we see more skincare brands turning to LED light therapy and microcurrents to ensure maximum efficacy of their products.

2-in-1 products

The pre-pandemic excessive skincare boom gave way to minimalist routines making a comeback. Now, skincare enthusiasts are looking for 2-in-1 products. That is, products that have multiple qualities, from repairing the skin barrier to deeply moisturising and even containing sun protection.

Hypochlorous acid

Hyaluronic acid and niacinamide will always be star ingredients for your routine. However, the new trendy ingredient is Hypochlorous Acid. This acid is naturally produced by the skin to fight infection and is now being incorporated into skincare products. This active ingredient is ideal for people with eczema, acne and any irritating skin condition.

Ingestible beauty

Beauty-focused food supplements are becoming increasingly popular. Especially those that not only aim to improve the external appearance, but also promote beauty from within. They provide nutrients to the body’s cells, helping them to synthesise proteins such as collagen and elastin that help maintain healthy skin.
