Fall Skin Care Tips

There are so many things to love about fall – cozy sweaters, colorful leaves, crisp fresh air and that feeling of change that comes with every new season. Falling leaves could be the first indication that change is in the air, but our skin can also show the effects of a seasonal transition. Seasonal change can leave our skin feeling dull, dry and dehydrated – but it doesn’t have to be that way.

We have 5 simple skin care tips that will help give you that perfect glow all season long:

1. Don’t forget your SPF

Cooler temperatures and shorter daylight hours don’t mean you should skimp on the SPF. Sun damage can occur all year long, so make sure to add a layer of sun protection to your daily beauty routine.

We recommend: Bright Skin Moisturizer SPF 40
Lilikoi Daily Defense Moisturizer SPF 40

2. Exfoliate

Exfoliation is the key to glowing skin. As we age, our natural ability to regenerate new skin cells slows. This can cause surface build-up which can leave our skin looking congested, dry and dull.

We recommend: Strawberry Rhubarb Dermafoliant (daily treatment)
Yam & Pumpkin Enzyme Peel 5% (weekly treatment)

3. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize

Autumn brings on cool, windy weather which can cause your skin to become dry and dehydrated. The fall season is the perfect time to correct any sun damage caused by summer heat and sunshine. Make sure to pick a moisturizer or masque that works best for your skin type. If your skin is extra dry, don’t be afraid to use heavier, natural, oil-based products.

We recommend: Facial Recovery Oil
Pumpkin Latte Hydration Masque

4. Body care is a must

Skin care doesn’t stop at your neckline - it's important to pamper, moisturize and treat every beautiful inch of your skin. To help keep your skin healthy (after that summer tan) look for products that nourish and even out your skin tone. 

We recommend: Stone Crop Body Lotion

5. Protect that pucker

The cool fall weather can leave your lips feeling dry and cracked. Protect and moisturize your lips daily with a non-petroleum based lip balm to keep your pout kissable all year long.

We recommend: Citrus Lip Balm
