As the seasons change, so do your skin’s needs. Fall weather can bring cooler temperatures and drier air, which can lead to skin dryness and irritation. Transitioning your skincare routine is essential to keep your skin hydrated and healthy. At Spotless Fillers, we’ve put together a guide to help you adjust your routine for the fall season.
1. Switch to a Creamy Cleanser
In the fall, your skin may need a gentler, more hydrating cleanser to combat dryness. Swap your foaming cleanser for a creamy or oil-based one to provide extra moisture while still cleansing effectively.
2. Add a Hydrating Serum
As the air becomes drier, your skin may lose moisture more quickly. Adding a hydrating serum with ingredients like hyaluronic acid or squalane can help lock in moisture and keep your skin plump and soft.
3. Opt for a Richer Moisturizer
Lighter moisturizers are great for summer, but fall calls for a richer formula to prevent dryness. Choose a moisturizer with ceramides or shea butter to strengthen your skin’s barrier and keep it hydrated all day long.
4. Don’t Forget SPF
Even though the sun may not feel as strong in the fall, UV rays can still cause damage. Continue to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect your skin from harmful rays and prevent premature aging.
5. Exfoliate Gently
Exfoliation is important in every season, but during fall, it’s essential to be gentle. Use a mild exfoliator once or twice a week to remove dead skin cells without causing irritation, allowing your hydrating products to absorb better.
