Spring is finally here Glossies, and with the new season comes a new beauty routine! It’s time to give your hair some much-needed TLC, replenish your skin and start prepping for the rising temperatures ahead. Here’s how…
Re-energise Your Dull Hair
From being whipped into a flyway mess by gusty winds, to being dried out by indoor heating, our hair endures a lot throughout winter. It’s particularly bad if you’ve got curly, naturally-drier hair like me!
To revive your locks, start your spring haircare routine with a re-energising spruce. While you should always keep up your shampoo, conditioner and your once-a-week hair mask regimen, I’d recommend using a hair perfume to give your locks an extra boost.
The Toni&Guy Hair Cosmetics Illuminating Hair Perfume, which some of you will have received this month, is the perfect cure for dull hair!
Once you’ve styled your hair, mist the perfume over your locks to create a sleek and flawless finish. It will really revive your tresses and enhance your look. On top of that, its zesty and citrusy scent is really refreshing. It smells like spring in a bottle!
Give Your Locks An Extra Dose Of TLC
I’ll admit that my favourite part about spring is leaving the office when it’s still light, meeting up with friends at the pub and sharing a few drinks in the sunshine. If I go straight from the office though, I always like to do a couple of things to freshen up. My last step of my spring beauty routine? I apply the Toni&Guy Radiant Rose Illuminating Hair Perfume.
Just like its sister product, it smooths out your hair and enhances its fragrance with a light and delicate scent. The rose version, though, also boasts suspended glitter that adds a subtle layer of sparkle and shine. Everyone needs a little extra boost to feel good after a long day, right?
Better yet, this hair perfume boasts a convenient travel size that makes it the ideal on-the-go companion. Simply slip it into your handbag and touch up at the end of the day, ready for your evening adventures.
Rebuild Your Skin After A Cold Winter
You don’t need me to tell you that the cold and dry winter air is rough on the complexion. Let’s face it, we’ve all spent the last five months desperately trying to nourish tight and flaky skin. Luckily, warmer and skin-benefiting humid days lie ahead!
To prepare for the sunnier months though, you first need to replenish and revive the healthy oils on the surface of your skin. After such a long and dehydrating winter, you’ll need quite a rich moisturiser. I’d recommend using thelavera All-Round Cream that some of you Glossies received in your March GLOSSYBOX.
Certified natural, organic and vegan, it’s an ultra-rich moisturiser that will nourish every part of your body. Its velvety formula blends organic shea butter and almond oil, creating a hydrating cream that locks in moisture. It’s particularly effective on very dry areas, like the knees and elbows. Say hello to soft, smooth and supple skin!

Prepare Your Complexion For A Sunny Spring
While the sun and blue skies that come out in spring are always cause for celebration, the UV rays can accelerate fine lines across our foreheads and around our eyes.
I’d obviously recommend investing in a pair of sunnies, and you can also combat these fine lines using the NEUTROGENA® Ageless Boost Hydrogel Recovery Mask that a lucky few received in their ‘Empowerment’ edits.
Designed in Korea, this mask leaves your complexion looking smooth and refined. Enriched with Adenosine, it is made with Hydrogel cooling technology that delivers the equivalent of a 30ml bottle of concentrated rejuvenating serum in just 15 minutes.
Best of all, the mask boasts an innovative texture that perfectly wraps around your face, allowing your skin to absorb all the active ingredients. Simply apply it to your cleansed complexion, leave it for 15 to 30 minutes then remove the mask starting at the bottom. To benefit from the full effect, you can then massage the remaining essences into your face and neck. A youthful complexion awaits!
And there you have it Glossies! The spring beauty routine that will give you glossy hair and dewy-looking skin ready for the warmer months ahead!
