Spring Beauty Swaps: Easy Ways to Update Your Makeup, Skin, and Hair Routine

In addition to cashing in on these freebies, now is also a great time to give your beauty routine a little spring cleaning! Here are some simple ways to adjust your products and techniques for the new season.

Makeup: Lighten Up & Glow

• Swap out heavy foundations for tinted moisturizers or lightweight BB creams.
• Opt for cream blushes and highlighters for a fresh, dewy finish.
• Play with soft, pastel eyeshadows or a bright pop of color on your lips.
• Choose a setting spray instead of powder to keep your makeup looking fresh all day.
• Don’t forget SPF! A sunscreen-infused primer is a great multitasker.

Skincare: Hydrate & Protect

• Switch to a lightweight gel or water-based moisturizer for a breathable feel.
• Incorporate a vitamin C serum to boost radiance and fight sun damage.
• Exfoliate gently to slough off dry winter skin and reveal a healthy glow.
• Use a hydrating mist throughout the day to refresh your skin.
• Always apply (and reapply!) SPF—even on cloudy days.

Hair: Refresh & Revive

• Trim those winter-damaged ends for a fresh start.
• Add a lightweight leave-in conditioner to keep frizz at bay.
• Try a clarifying shampoo to remove buildup from heavier winter products.
• Experiment with loose waves or soft curls for a breezy springtime look.
• Consider a new, sun-kissed hair color or subtle highlights for extra brightness.

Spring is the perfect time to refresh your beauty routine, experiment with new trends, and score some amazing freebies. Whether you’re updating your skincare, switching up your makeup, or trying out a new fragrance, these samples and tips will have you looking and feeling your best all season long. Happy spring, and happy sampling!
