As the weather continues to warm and the days grow longer, one of the most notable effects of Spring is the changing needs of my skin. While the temperate LA environment doesn't cause the drastic shifts that those of you in more frigid climes experience, I nonetheless notice an increased sensitivity thanks to seasonal allergens and more sun exposure. In fact, my skin seems needs more TLC in the hotter months—yet the last thing I want to do as the temps climb is load it down with heavy product.
Which is why I love serums! Designed to deliver major benefits without the weight of creams or lotions, serums sink almost instantly into skin to relieve everything from redness and dry patches to breakouts. My favorites are the all-natural versions that contain light yet potent botanical oils, with no synthetic preservatives or fragrances to irritate my temperamental skin. As a bonus they come in old-school apothecary bottles so you can pretend you're an alchemist working your very own skin magic. A drop of serum, an abracadabra or two, and a happy complexion is yours!
