What You Need To Know:
As the seasons change, we need to adjust our skincare to fit our skins need. During the summer months, we cleansed our skin properly, used UV protection and used lighter formulations to keep our skin healthy and happy. Now that the hot summer months are over, it’s time to make some skincare switches to keep our skin hydrated and nourished. Start by switching to gel cleansers that do not strip the skin. Look for exfoliating serums containing gentle acids to address post-summer sun damage and reveal fresh skin. It’s important to transition to thicker moisturizers with barrier-boosting ingredients to lock in hydration as our skin becomes drier from the cooler weather.
In winter, focus on layering hydration with serums rich in humectants like hyaluronic acid, followed by balms or heavier moisturizers. Include eye treatments and hand creams to protect the our most vulnerable areas of the face from dryness and irritation. Weekly hydrating masks can offer a much-needed moisture boost during the coldest months, keeping our skin smooth and healthy year-round.
Ultimately, adjusting our skincare with the seasons is about paying attention to our skin's needs. As the air becomes colder and drier, these richer, more nourishing treatments will keep our skin glowing and resilient throughout fall and winter. Proper hydration, protection, and care can make a noticeable difference, helping us maintain a radiant complexion despite the elements.
