Spring skin changes aren’t always about dryness…
At this time of year, I often see an increase in itchy, reactive skin especially on the arms, legs, neck.& hands.
In many cases, this is linked to UVA exposure, which penetrates deeper into the skin and can trigger inflammation and nerve sensitivity… even without visible redness.
This is why antihistamines don’t always give relief, and why quick fixes don’t last.
Here’s a few tips to stop that pesky itch…
The focus should always be on protecting and repairing the skin, not over-treating it:
• Daily broad-spectrum SPF (UVA protection is key)
•Strengthening the skin barrier
• Reducing inflammation
•Avoiding unnecessary actives during flare-ups
WHAT I RECOMMEND FOR HOME USE

When skin is reactive, I keep it simple, consistent and results-driven:
• Dermalogica UltraCalming Cleanser – gentle cleansing without disruption
• Dermalogica Circular Hydration Serum – supports ongoing hydration within the skin
• Dermalogica Stabilizing Repair Cream – strengthens and restores the barrier
• Dermalogica Invisible Physical Defense SPF 30 a lightweight daily UV protection
These are not about trends they’re about supporting the skin so it can function properly again.
If your skin feels itchy, reactive or “not quite right”…
Please do not ignore it.
The earlier we calm and support it, the easier it is to manage long-term.
I can give relief with a pro calm treatment and lots of extra advice in house. Let’s calm your skin so you can enjoy this beautiful weather!
