It’s finally SPRING! And the first thing I think of is sunshine. After a few months of cold weather in Texas, I am so ready for warmer weather and flowers blooming. My next thought immediately goes to – “I need to shave my legs” and I head to Target for essentials. I grab a fresh new Gillette Venus Razor in the beauty aisle and head home. I have been using Gillette Venus Razors since I first learned how to shave and love how smooth they leave my legs, perfect for spring. Then, I start my natural routine to get spring ready. Here are 5 Ways To Get “SPRING” Ready Simply Clarke Style:
Transition Your Closet
As the cold weather starts to fade and the flowers begin to bloom, I transition all of the items in my closet. I bring all of my shorts to the front, I re-organize my dresses in order of spring/summer ones first and I put away all of my coats and sweaters. I keep some of my light sweaters toward the back of my closet for any cool nights that might arise. Then, I take a quick inventory of any new items I might need to start the season.
Set A Shaving Routine
I mentioned it above but buying a fresh new razor is always on my spring list. This year, I grabbed a NEW Venus Platinum Extra Smooth razor at Target (they are available on Target.com too). I saw their special Venus Platinum Touch and Learn display (up until April 22nd) and it really intrigued me to try it, especially since it’s from a brand I trust. It has a gorgeous, sleek design that features the brand’s first made-for-women metal handle. Not only is the satin chrome finish elegant, but it is also durable and has a premium feel.
I feel like it gives me more control when shaving. It has advanced blade technology for a closer shave and leaves my skin feeling extra-smooth. It also has a 360-degree ribbon of moisture that releases lubricants when activated by water for great glide and protection. All of these features are amazing, however, my favorite feature is that it leaves me feeling confident and comfortable. A smooth shave is a must going into spring and the NEW Venus Platinum Extra Smooth razor delivers. Try for yourself!
Treat Yourself
Not only can you pamper yourself by using the Venus Platinum Extra Smooth razor for a relaxing shave, but also it leaves you with flawlessly smooth skin. Sometimes, you just need to take a few minutes for yourself. After your legs are smooth, go grab a pedicure by yourself to refresh and get those toes ready for sandal weather. Or, maybe you like to grab a spray tan or new spring-wear. Whatever it is, treat yourself to something you enjoy to prep for spring.
Get To Work
Another thing I do is get to work! I am slightly strange in that the “new year” doesn’t encourage me to work out, spring does. As soon as spring rolls around, I kick my workouts into gear to get ready for pool days. I set a routine that works for my schedule and try to stick to it. I tend to like at home workouts best just because I haven’t had time to go to the gym in years.
Reset Your Schedule
I like to use the new season as an excuse to reset my schedule. I try to clear time in our day to be outside more and enjoy the day. I like to slow down and get ready for outdoor fun. We take evening walks, have fun at the park, or plan lake days. We love the sunshine and the kids love being outside, I am ready for anything that gets us outside as a family!
Spring is here, so ready or not, here we go! Be sure to update your closet, grab the New Venus Platinum Extra Smooth razor and enjoy the weather! What are other ways you get “spring ready”? I would love to hear your favorite spring activity and how you prepare.
