Skincare Tips for Fall/Winter Season

 

It’s the season of Pumpkin Spice lattes and wintery winds, so it’s a good time to reassess your skincare and beauty routine to keep you looking your best in the colder and drier months of the year. Here are some ways you can prep and protect your skin from the harsh fall & winter conditions!

 

Hydrate and Moisturize More

Due to the lower temperatures in fall, humidity tends to drop, thus resulting in dry air that in turn causes our skin to lose moisture to the environment. This is why you’ll find that your skin gets drier, and possibly more sensitive and prone to breakouts during the winter seasons.

But fret not – just like the seasons change, your skincare routine should too. The key is to tweak your routine to include products that target the deeper layers of the skin to keep it nourished and hydrate, so that your skin looks soft and supple .

Opt for hydrating serums and creamier moisturizers to help fortify and lock in moistures, protecting your skin against the higher rate of moisture loss. Never underestimate the wonders of drinking lots of H2O! Keepying hydrated throughout the day will also help your skin cells to stay nourished, and your skin looking plump and radiant!

Avoid Exfoliating as Much

We’ve recommended exfoliation as a great way to attain radiant and clear skin as it helps to slough off build up of dead skin cells. But in colder seasons as your skin loses moisture, too much exfoliation may do more harm than good.

Tip: Cut down on your exfoliation frequency, and make sure to moisturize generously immediately after.

 

Use Body Lotions

Now, after talking so much about the face, let us not forget that the dry autumn weather also affects the skin on the rest of our body.

How do we prepare our skin for the harsh weather to come? The same way – moisturize! Keep a bottle of your favorite body cream or lotion in the bathroom so you can moisturize immediately after a hot shower – this way your pores will still be open to absorb the nourishing effects of your moisturizer.

Tip: Carry a rich hand cream in your purse when you head out so you can moisturize on the go when your skin starts to feel a litle tight or itchy.

Choose Clean Beauty To Protect Your Skin

Need help covering up those dry reddish patches that seem to magically reappear on your cheeks every autumn?

The key is to choose natural makeup that is free of irritating synthetic chemicals, to avoid exacerbating the problem and causing more irritation.

Our top choice for a complete dewy hydrated look? We would recommend the Flawless Face Concealer that is not only high in coverage but also nourishing with lots of amazing ingredients from vitamin E to jojoba seed oil to keep your skin in tip-top condition. For a flawless look, finish with our Youth Elixir Liquid Foundation - a non-clogging formula that provides long-lasting coverage all day.

There you have it, our skincare tips for the colders seasons so you’ll be looking fresh and radiant even through the winter!
