Why I'm Micropolishing my Skin this Spring

I don’t know if I’ve touched on this subject recently, but I’m really picky when it comes to facial and body cleansers. I know, like me, everyone has their favorite skin care products and they rarely stray from them, but I’m always testing new products so when I find a new cleanser that works for me and that I’m excited about I HAVE to tell you guys all about it.

Why I’m Micropolishing my Skin this Spring

Olay’s new Cleansing Infusion line is my new obsession and I guarantee once you try these 2 new products they’ll be a favorite of yours too. Olay’s Micropolishing Cleansing Infusion Hydrating Glow Facial Cleanser with Crushed Ginger and Citrus Extract and Olay’s Microscrubbing Cleansing Infusion Hydrating Glow Body Wash with Crushed Ginger contain exfoliators that break down as you wash that creates a micropolishing effect that sloughs away dead skin and reveals a smooth surface for healthy-looking and feeling skin! Plus the scent…amazing! I’m a huge fan of ginger, and this crushed ginger scent is subtle but sweet. I’m not someone who likes very strong-smelling cleansers, especially on my face, so this is perfect for me.

I’ve been using Olay’s Cleansing Infusion line for about a week now and I can already see a difference. I’m usually not that confident with my skin in the very early spring because I’m SOOOO pale and it can look a little dry and ashy because of the harsh Winter weather, but I’ve quickly learned that when your skin is exfoliated and hydrated it glows and reflects light better than any highlighter or summer tan can!

Here are 5 more things to add to your skin care regimen this Spring to get you ready and glowing this season:

SPF Everyday! No matter what you’re doing make sure to wear at least an SPF 30 on your face every single day! I apply it right after my moisturizer and consider it part of my daily skin care routine. My personal favorites are from Supergoop! I love the Glow Screen (if you’re looks for a little glow) or the Unseen Sunscreen if you want something more matte! Even if you’re inside for a majority of the day you still need protection from UV rays!
Add a salicylic acid to your nightly routine every other night! Not only does it help with acne and blemishes, but exfoliates and penetrates into the pores to unclog them. My favorite is Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant. I apply it with a cotton round to my entire face every other night to get rid of dead skin, unclog pores and improve my skin texture and glow. If you’re looking for an oil free version, check out The Ordinary’s Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toning Solution!

So I challenge you to take the #TiltTest! Try Olay’s Cleansing Infusion for a week then tilt your face, legs, shoulders and arms into the light, catching it to show off the natural glow. Micropolishing my skin has definitely changed my dull winter skin to glowing Spring skin!
