5 Useful Tips To Enhance Your Fall Skincare Routine
Just as we change wardrobe based on weather seasons, our skincare regimens shouldn’t be left out as well. What feels good on the skin during hot summer months may no longer be suitable as the weather transitions into fall and winter seasons.
Usually, summer times are synonymous with increased sun intensity, beach days, lightened hair, sun-kissed skin, and skincare routines filled with lightweight products. At this stage, there’s more humidity in the air to help moisten the skin and keep the skin barrier protected. Unfortunately, we cannot say the same for cooler months.
During cooler months like winter and fall, humidity reduces and the air becomes drier. At this point, the skin will start losing moisture thereby disrupting the skin barrier. When that happens, you may likely experience more dryness, irritation or increased skin sensitivity.
In this blog post, join us as we outline five useful skincare tips that will help you take the best care of your skin as we enter the fall season. For further clarification, you may book our free online consultation to speak with our experts.
Now, let’s get down to it!
A Great Time for Chemical Peel
During summer, the skin is largely exposed to more intense UV radiation from the sun. In the process, the outer layer of the skin is mostly affected. To get rid of these layers and reveal brand-new skin, we recommend booking at least one chemical peel session.
Aside from removing the dead or worn-out cells, chemical peels are a great rejuvenating process. They enhance your cell turnover rate, open your skin for easy absorption of skincare products, and so much more. In essence, you are prepping your skin for fall and winter glow.

Add Antioxidants In Your Regimen
As we all know, antioxidants, such as vitamin C are useful in neutralizing the damaging effects of free radicals from the sun. Remember, your skin needs to heal from the extended UV exposure you experienced during summer. In addition, vitamin C also boosts collagen production and clears pigmentation for more even complexion.
For this process, we recommend our Vitamin C + SPF 25 Moisturizer, Vitamin C + SPF 15, and the Vitamin C Serum. Also, explore our Mineral Gold Series. These products are richly formulated with vitamin C and other antioxidants to replenish and nourish the skin.
Switch To Richer Moisturizers
As temperature and humidity level decreases, our skin begins to lose a considerable amount of moisture to dry air surrounding us. To compensate for this, it’s best to switch to richer, thicker or cream-based moisturizers. Consider moisturizers that are enriched with aloe vera, niacinamide, glycerin and multivitamins. It’s best if they can hydrate and also nourish.
At the same time, avoid products that may likely clog your pores and use moisturizers, such as Ita Nourishing Cream, Crema De Leche, Azulene Moisturizer, or Skin Relief Cream. Meanwhile, don’t forget to provide something for your lips to prevent it from flaking. You may explore our Lip Line.
Use Hydrating Serums & Eye Creams
To still compensate for moisture loss, consider using hydrating serums, such as Hyaluronic Acid, to increase hydration. Preferably, use serums that contain collagen, aloe vera, and vitamin C for deeper nourishment. Meanwhile, don’t forget to add eye care products like Eye Lifting Serum & Anti Puff Cream to prevent wrinkles or dryness triggered by extended skin dryness.
As a Pro Tip, you may also consider adding air humidifiers in your home and office to moisten the air and reduce moisture loss on the skin. It’s beneficial to your skin if the air surrounding it is filled with sufficient moisture.
Protect Your Skin with SPF
As much as UV rays may not be too intense like it is in summer, the rays are still present. Always wear sunscreen at all times to limit the damaging effects of the sun. Furthermore, it’s already proven that excessive UV radiation can trigger skin cancer. To protect your skin, don’t ever leave your house without using your sunscreen.
For better results, consider exploring our 24-hour Sunblock which provides all-day protection, especially if you don’t have one. It comes in two different types, Sunblock SPF 50 Regular for all skin tones and Sunblock SPF Medium Tone for lighter skin.
The skin is at higher risk of losing moisture during cooler winters or fall seasons. As such, it may become vulnerable to dryness, and breakouts due to a disrupted barrier. To stop this from happening, make changes in your routine as we transition into these cooler months.
