Polymethylsilsesquioxane in spring: how to adjust

Using Polymethylsilsesquioxane in spring: the season brings rising UV and pollen-season reactivity, so what changes is texture, frequency and what you layer around it — not usually whether you use it at all.

The 'pore filter' effect in a jar, and the reason a Korean primer can make your nose look airbrushed in about four seconds. These are tiny hard spheres that sit on the surface and bounce light in all directions. Nothing is being treated. Wash it off and the pores are exactly as they were.

What spring does to your skin

Fluctuating temperatures, pollen and sensitivity, and rising UV mean a gentle, barrier-supportive routine with reliable daily SPF.

How that changes Polymethylsilsesquioxane

Spring is when UV climbs while skin is still adjusting out of winter — keep the barrier steady and let sunscreen do the heavy lifting. Polymethylsilsesquioxane works on pores & texture, rough & uneven texture, oil control, and it is normally applied AM.
