Spring is a time for renewal. After a long winter, our skin can also use some pampering. One of my favorite products is a resurfacing peel that I use three times a week. Skincare experts say that one should try to get a professional facial with the change of each season.
The Five-Star Umstead Hotel and Spa in Cary, North Carolina is one of the best places in the Southeast to get a facial, but spa experts tell me that it's also wise to use some natural ingredients at home to give your skin the renewal it needs, especially in the Spring after a dry winter.
DIY at-Home Spring Facial Tips from the Umstead Spa
Wash face with a mild cream cleanser, rinse well and pat dry.
In a small bowl, mix half of one lemon (Organic lemon is best), with 2 tablespoons of raw honey.
Remove with warm water or a warm towel to reveal a smooth, bright and glowing complexion
Lemon and water. I think we can all get those ingredients easily.
