Just-Landed: 10 Products To Get A Fresh Spring Glow On

We’re finally starting to peel away the layers of cozy, and while we find this super exciting – who isn’t sick of bundling up in coats – we’re also remembering how much prep we need to do to our skin. For one, we’re gonna have to switch up our products to align with the warmer weather (sigh). It’s time to shed your dry, dull winter skin and make way for the glow, and to do that, you need to make sure your skincare routine is in line with the new weather. Thankfully, these ten products landed on our desks, and they’re halfway to making us feel all sparkly for spring already…

For the body:

Start with: Grounded Coffee Body Scrub, $21

A body scrub is step number one to getting your skin looking anywhere near ready for summer sunshine, and we can’t deny that we’re prone to neglecting this during winter! These insanely-delicious scented scrubs contain some of our fav all-natural ingredients – coffee, brown sugar, sea salt, sweet almond oil, coconut oil, and vitamin E – and that’s actually all they contain, which we love even more… There’s no nasty microbeads, chemicals, sulphates or parabens. Post-scrub, our skin was BEYOND soft! Check out the full collection of body scrubs, including Coconut, Grapefruit, Peppermint, and Chocolate Orange here.

Finish with: Kora Noni Glow Body Oil, $58

The Noni Glow Body Oil could not have come at a better time; it’s the ultimate hit of hydration for your skin after showering and post-exfoliation. The body oil boasts Noni, a fruit that has over 100 vitamins and minerals, as well as cult favs, rosehip seed oil, and sea buckthorn seed oil. The all-natural, organic oil is also super lightweight, so you won’t have to hang around to get dressed if your home is still a little chilly. Shop it here.

Nothing says freshness like wide-awake eyes, and this natural and organic eye oil is surprisingly potent as it contains a natural type of retinol in the form of Kahai Oil, which helps improve elasticity and smooth fine lines. Coffee seed oil helps with puffiness, and tomato fruit brightens the skin to minimize the appearance of dark circles. We also love that this has a roller ball application made of Rose Quartz, which makes it super refreshing and soothing to apply. Shop it here.
