Is Your Fall Routine Ready?

Is Your Fall Skincare Routine Planned?

I know there’s some reading headlines like this and thinking… “Really? Do some people change out their routine every season? Is it that big of a deal?”

Yet we all change our clothing routine!

Just like you’d avoid your sweaters in the hottest months (unless your indoors with icy air conditioning) you’ll want to adjust your skin routine in the Fall and Winter season.

What’s Different in Fall and Winter?

The cooler breeze can make your skin drier. The lower humidity combined with colder weather makes moisturizer a necessity. It’s not just the dry skin though, the cold weather can increase the risks of breakouts, flaky skin, dullness and redness.

It’s also the season that makes conditions like eczema, dermatitis and rosacea worse.

Here’s The Top Tips for Fall:

#1. Avoid hot showers

I know… they’re amazing! Who doesn’t love a steamy hot shower awakening your senses… but a slightly warm shower can reduce the amount of natural oils lost.

#2. Use a cream based cleaner

We recommend one that doesn’t strip the skin of precious nutrients and oils and cleans without irritation. Soothing Cleanser Milk is a great example and truly helps dry or sensitive skin.

#3. Use thicker moisturizer

Colder days can strip your skin of it’s natural moisturizer. That’s why having a heavier product can help retain moisture for up to 24 hours. That’s what Moisture Intensiv™ was designed to do.

#4. Don’t stop the SPF

Even if it’s not as sunny out, sun damage happens year round even if you’re not out in the sun dall day. Even a cloudy day has some UV rays poke through and penetrate the skin.
