Longer days, warmer afternoons and the first beach trips of the season. There's something about the arrival of warmer weather in Australia that makes us want to spend more time outdoors. Whether it's weekend swims, coastal walks, backyard barbecues or afternoons at the park, spring is the perfect time to refresh your routine and get ready for summer.
But while you're swapping jumpers for swimmers, is your skin ready for the change in season? From daily SPF to lightweight skincare, here are five simple ways to prepare your skin for the warmer months ahead.
As the days get warmer, it's natural to start thinking about sun protection again. But UV radiation isn't determined by temperature, and your skin can be exposed to damaging UV levels even on cooler or cloudy days.
In Australia, sun protection is recommended whenever the UV Index reaches 3 or above. If sunscreen has slipped out of your daily routine over winter, now is a great time to bring it back.
For everyday wear, Wotnot's Natural Zinc Face Sunscreen SPF50 with CoQ10 combines broad-spectrum mineral UV protection with antioxidant skincare ingredients in a lightweight, matte formula.
It's an easy addition to your morning routine, whether you're heading to work or spending the day outdoors.

As temperatures rise, heavy creams and thick makeup can start to feel uncomfortable, particularly when you're spending more time outside.
Warmer weather is a great opportunity to simplify your routine with lightweight products that keep your skin feeling comfortable. If you're looking to reduce the number of products in your makeup bag, Wotnot's BB Cream SPF40 combines natural-looking coverage, nourishing skincare ingredients, anti-aging serum and mineral sun protection. With certified organic jojoba oil, aloe vera and vitamin E, it helps moisturise and condition the skin while creating a smooth, natural matte finish.
It's easy to associate dry skin with winter, but warmer weather doesn't mean your skin stops needing moisture. Sun exposure, swimming, air conditioning and frequent showering can all contribute to skin feeling dry or uncomfortable.
Keeping your skin moisturised helps support its natural moisture barrier, leaving it feeling soft and comfortable. Look for gentle, nourishing ingredients and choose a moisturiser that suits your skin type rather than skipping hydration altogether.
Nothing ruins a spontaneous beach trip quite like realising you've forgotten the sunscreen. Before the summer adventures begin, take a few minutes to check your essentials. Make sure your sunscreen hasn't expired, replace any products that have been stored incorrectly and keep a fresh tube of sunscreen ready for your next outing.
For family beach days, Wotnot's Natural Family Sensitive Skin Sunscreen SPF30 offers broad-spectrum zinc protection in a moisturising formula designed for sensitive skin. And for convenient application to smaller exposed areas, the Wotnot Natural Zinc Sunscreen Stick makes a handy addition to your beach bag. We even have a refillable roll-on applicator.
Remember to apply sunscreen generously, reapply as directed and combine it with shade, protective clothing and a hat.

When it comes to looking after your skin, consistency matters more than having a complicated routine.
You don't need an overflowing bathroom shelf to prepare for summer. A few simple habits can make a difference: gentle cleansing, regular moisturising, daily sun protection when needed and choosing products that work with your skin.
At Wotnot, this approach is at the heart of our Lifetime Skin Wellness™ mission and the BarrierKind™ Daily Defence System — Soothe. Strengthen. Shield.
Because caring for your skin should feel like a natural part of everyday life.
Warmer weather means more opportunities to get outside, explore and enjoy everything an Australian summer has to offer.
And with a few simple changes to your skincare routine, you can head into the season feeling prepared. From lightweight everyday SPF to nourishing family sunscreen, Wotnot's natural zinc sunscreen range is designed to help protect and care for your skin through all your summer adventures.
