2. Switch from Heavy Moisturizers to Lighter Formulas.
During the winter months, rich creams are essential for sealing in moisture and protecting your skin from the harsh weather. In spring, you’ll want to swap for lighter, breathable formulas that hydrate without feeling too heavy.
Biologique Recherche: If you’ve been using thicker, richer face creams like Creme Dermo-RL or Creme MSR-H , then Creme ADN Metamorphique/Creme Splendide or Creme Masque Vernix VG is excellent spring options.

3. Switch Your Exfoliation Routine for Lighter, Brightening Treatments.
Spring is a great time to give your skin a fresh start, but with increased UV exposure, you should be careful about harsh exfoliants that could leave your skin vulnerable to sun damage. Biologique Recherche:
Biologique Recherche: If you’ve been using the stronger P50V Lotion or P50 for exfoliation in the winter, which are excellent for removing dead skin cells and promoting regeneration while improving skin quality, but during the spring months, to prevent over-exfoliation it's recommended to swich lotions. We ussually suggest to switch to P50 PIGM 400 or Lotion P50W for a more gentle exfoliation that also targets pigmentation.
