Get that glow: Spring clean your body and skin from the inside out
Here are four things you can do to get your skin, body and wellbeing tip-top ready for the brighter days ahead. Reset your diet for glowing skin Your skin reflects what's happening inside your body. Over the winter, heavy comfort foods and festive treats can lead to sluggish digestion, inflammation and lacklustre skin. Spring is the time to reset the body by focusing on whole, nutrient-dense foods. ✔ Hydrate — Start each day with warm lemon water to aid digestion and flush out toxins. Drink water and herbal teas throughout the day. Think of hydrating foods such as crisp salads, cucumber, celery, lettuce and spring soups. ✔ Increase Antioxidants — Berries, leafy greens, citrus fruits and fresh herbs all support skin health and fight free radicals. Snack on these and keep your levels topped up. ✔ Support Gut Health — Look at increasing fibre to feed our good bacteria and eat a rainbow of fruits and veggies. Fermented foods like kimchi, kefir, and natural yogurt promote a balanced microbiome, essential for clear, radiant skin. Get into the habit of incorporating these foods when you can. ✔ Essential Fatty Acids — Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids are key to maintaining a healthy skin barrier, reducing inflammation and keeping skin plump and hydrated. Found in foods like salmon, flaxseeds, walnuts, chia seeds and avocado, they nourish from within for a dewy, youthful glow. Supercharge your skincare routine Just as we swap heavy winter coats for lighter layers in spring, our skincare needs a seasonal refresh too. The thick creams and occlusive oils that kept skin protected in winter might now feel too heavy. Instead, opt for products that revive, replenish and hydrate your skin for a fresh, glowing complexion. ✔ Exfoliate Wisely — A gentle chemical exfoliant, like Environ's Botanical Infused Moisturising Toner or Biologique Recherche's Lotion P50 PIGM, helps to slough off dull winter skin, boost cell turnover, and reveal a radiant glow. ✔ Hydrate & Nourish — Swap richer creams for lightweight, hydrating serums, and don't forget an eye cream like Environ's Vita-peptide eye gel to keep the delicate under-eye area fresh and bright. ✔ Protect, Protect, Protect — SPF is non-negotiable! UV rays are present year-round, and as we spend more time outdoors in spring, a high-quality SPF like Dermaviduals SPF30 is essential to prevent premature ageing and sun damage. ✔ Moisturise — Even with lighter textures, hydration is key. Lock in moisture with a nourishing night cream or facial oil. We love Osmosis Nourish Facial Oil or their Remedy Healing Balm for its ability to deeply replenish and restore skin overnight. ✔ Don't Forget Your Neck & Décolletage! — These areas show signs of ageing just as much as the face, so treat them with the same care. Apply serums, moisturisers and SPF daily. ✔ Invest in Your Skincare — Spring is the perfect time to book a professional facial to deeply cleanse, hydrate and reset your skin. A well-chosen treatment, such as our new Biologique Recherche Bespoke treatments, will instantly boost radiance and help your skin transition smoothly into the new season. Move and breathe for lymphatic detox Movement is one of the most powerful ways to stimulate circulation and encourage the lymphatic system to efficiently flush out toxins, reducing puffiness and promoting a healthier glow. I recommend dry brushing before showering to boost lymphatic drainage, alongside incorporating gentle movement such as yoga, walking, or rebounding to keep everything flowing smoothly. Deep breathing techniques can further support detoxification by increasing oxygen flow and reducing stress, which plays a key role in skin health. For those looking for an extra boost, Skin Future offers the Slimyonik Air Bodystyler, advanced Lymphatic Drainage treatment that provides deep, effective detoxification. It's a relaxing yet powerful treatment where clients wear a specialised suit that delivers targeted, rhythmic massage, helping to stimulate circulation, reduce fluid retention, and support overall wellbeing. It's a game-changer for getting everything moving and feeling lighter from the inside out. Beauty sleep and stress reset Spring is the perfect time to reset not only your skin but also your sleep and stress management routine. Poor sleep can drive inflammation and breakouts and exacerbate skin concerns such as acne, rosacea, and aging. Quality rest allows the body to repair and rejuvenate, helping your skin glow from the inside out. To promote better sleep, establish a calming night-time routine: ✔ Reduce screen time at least an hour before bed to limit blue light exposure. ✔ Wind down with relaxation techniques like meditation, journaling, or deep breathing to reduce cortisol levels. ✔ Keep your bedroom cool, dark, and clutter-free for optimal rest. For those looking for a professional boost, Skin Future offers advanced treatments that work alongside your skincare routine to maximise results.

Natalie Barr, 57, reveals the secret to her flawless line-free visage: 'I've been using it for years'
Natalie Barr has revealed the secret to maintaining her flawless-looking skin. The Sunrise host, 57, took to Instagram on Wednesday to give fans an insight into her beauty regimen. In the jealously inducing clip, Natalie flaunted her flawless, make-up free face revealing that she had just woken up from a nap. Admitting her hair looked 'terrible' she kept her locks contained under a 'Wackadoo' hat from Bluey's World, gifted to Nat by co-host Matt Shirvington. 'The most asked question we get is, "What time do you get up?"' Natalie began the clip. 'Then, for women, it's, "What make-up do you use?"' Natalie then revealed the must-haves in her make-up bag admitting that she had been using the products for decades. 'So, I just purchased a whole bunch of my favourite skincare. I've been using it since I was in the mother's group with the founder, many, many years ago,' she said. Natalie then revealed go-to was Aussie brand Dermaviduals, who sent the presenter a gift pack. In fact, the company's foundation is the cornerstone of Natalie's on-air visage. 'It's a really clean, beautiful brand and really simple - even the packaging is really simple,' she said. 'Channel seven purchases their foundation and I use the foundation on air.' She then revealed the first item in her gift pack - a nourishing cleansing milk that retails for approximately $86 for 150ml Her next item was a $45 fleece facemask which Natalie admitted she was eager to sample. It's not the first time Natalie has taken to social media to spruik her favorite products. Back in January, she sent a budget K-Mart utensil viral after raving about it on Instagram. She posted a clip to Instagram on Thursday in which she was seen using the department store's $20 Multi Grater & Dicer. She put both an onion and a carrot into the dicer and was delighted at how quickly the utensil chopped them into tiny pieces. 'I just tried it today, chop, chop! Why didn't I buy one of these before? How much time it's saving!' Natalie began. 'There's a bigger grater for carrots. Look at that, this is amazing. I love this thing, genius.' Natalie later revealed she was receiving many messages from fans asking for details about the dicer, which she happily provided. 'Being swamped with questions on the chopper. I ordered online from Kmart, pretty sure this is it - $20 Multi Dicer and Grater,' Nat told her followers. 'Will let you know how long my late night $20 buy from Kmart lasts.' Natalie's beauty revelations come after she recently flaunted her incredible figure, plunging into an ice bath on air. The presenter and her co-host Matt Shirvington were chatting to Australian boxer Harry Garside about using the bath for muscle recovery. Natalie then stripped into a black swimsuit as she agreed to jump into an ice bath with the sports star. After getting into the ice bath, Natalie joked that the feeling was so uncomfortable she felt like she was going into childbirth. She continued to breath loudly before admitting: 'I hate this.' After getting out of the bath, Natalie explained 'it was really cold on the legs and really hurts the legs' before asking Harry how he felt. 'I feel it in my feet and calves the most. I think because it's the furthest thing from the heart so the blood circulation isn't getting there,' he said.
