What is the best time of year to start a skincare programme?
Immediate Answer: Any time is good, but autumn/winter is ideal—lower sun intensity means fewer new UV concerns while you're reversing existing damage. Starting in spring/summer requires strict SPF adherence (you're treating existing damage while fighting new damage simultaneously).
The Science: Sun intensity varies seasonally:
- Spring/Summer: High UV, more sun spots form while you're treating them (uphill battle)
- Autumn/Winter: Low UV, easier to see treatment results without new damage forming
However: Don't delay treatment waiting for "perfect" season. Starting now is better than waiting 6 months.
How Nordic Formula Helps: Autumn/Winter start:
- Easier to see results (lower concurrent sun damage)
- Reduced SPF reapplication requirements (less intense sun)
- Faster visible progress (encouraging consistency)
Spring/Summer start:
- Absolutely possible, but requires:
- Strict daily Daycream Defence Repair SPF 50 - SPF reapplication every 2 hours if in sun - Realistic expectations (progress slower due to new damage forming)
Pro Tip: The best time to start is when you commit to consistency, not when the calendar is "right." If you're ready now, start now. Consistency beats optimal timing.
