Spring is officially here, the weather’s getting warmer, and my skin always shifts with it—more redness, more acne, and way more combination-skin chaos. In this video I run through my spring 2026 skincare must-haves and keep it pretty brief since I have deeper reviews on a lot of these already. The theme is simple: gentle, balancing products that hydrate without feeling heavy, plus a few targeted treatments that keep my acne and redness in check when my skin starts acting up. I start with cleansers I trust for acne-prone skin (including a non-stripping everyday option and a sulfur cleanser I use more “situationally” when redness flares). Then I get into lightweight hydration—mists, milky toners, and a micro-emulsion that supports my barrier without leaving a finish. For daytime, I’m prioritizing antioxidants and sunscreen (yes, I had to include a Korean-filter favorite), and for nights I’m sticking to a building-block active approach with retinal, plus gentler exfoliation alternatives like enzyme exfoliants. I also share my go-to spot treatment and a few balancing staples (azelaic acid, centella toner, magnesium mist, and a niacinamide + ectoin serum) that help me stay consistent through spring transitions.
