Spring skincare for adults: essential hydration and protection

summary
With the arrival of spring, it’s essential to double down on the care of mature skin, prioritizing hydration, sunscreen, and healthy habits to avoid dryness and age spots caused by increased sun exposure and climate change.

The arrival of spring brings longer days, warmer temperatures, and increased exposure to the sun. On the one hand, this season represents renewal, but on the other hand, the skin, especially mature skin that has lost its elasticity and is prone to age spots and dryness, requires special care.

According to the Brazilian Society of Dermatology (SBD), around 80% of skin aging, including wrinkles, sagging skin, and hyperpigmentation, is caused by UV rays. For people over 50, continued hydration and sun protection are essential steps to maintain skin health and comfort.

“Over the years, the skin loses some of its natural water-holding capacity, becomes thinner and more sensitive. Hydration then becomes not just an aesthetic issue, but one of health. It ensures comfort, prevents injuries and helps keep the skin barrier protected,” explains Camila de Oliveira, pharmacist at Lugol Cosmetics.

With over a century of history, the brand maintains in its portfolio traditional formulas aimed at deep hydration, such as Traditional Beauty Cream and Lettuce Cream, which are part of the emotional memory of many Brazilian women and are known for integrating the care routines of different generations.

Spring reminds us that the passage of time takes its toll on our skin, but continued care is what keeps it vibrant. It’s more of an expression of well-being and self-care than an aesthetic issue. At this stage of life, small habits make a difference. Strengthen your skin barrier and prevent dryness by prioritizing moisturizing products, avoiding very hot baths, maintaining a balanced diet, and using double doses of sunscreen.

Mature skin responds better to consistent care rather than excessive care. Regardless of your age, following simple habits tailored to your seasonal needs is the most effective way to ensure comfort and brightness.
