Autumn Skincare

Autumn is a beautiful season that is often associated with falling leaves, cozy sweaters and warm drinks. However, the cooler weather and changes in humidity can also have an impact on our skin.

HOW DOES AUTUMN WEATHER AFFECT YOUR SKIN?

  1. Dryness: As temperatures drops and humidity levels decrease, your skin may become drier and more prone to irritation and flakiness.
  2. Fine lines and wrinkles: Cold weather and dry air can cause the skin to lose moisture and elasticity, leading to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  3. Dark spots: UV radiation from the sun can still damage your skin in the autumn, causing dark spots and hyperpigmentation.

SKINCARE PRODUCTS TO HELP COMBAT WINTER EFFECTS

Hydrating Cleanser

To combat dryness, use a hydrating cleanser that will help lock in moisture while removing impurities. 

Exfoliator

To combat flakiness and to improve your skin’s texture, use an exfoliator once or twice a week. Look for an exfoliator that is gentle on your skin, like a sugar scrub or a chemical exfoliant with alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs).

Moisturiser

Moisturising is key to keeping your skin hydrated and healthy during autumn. Look for a moisturizer that is rich and nourishing, like one that contains shea butter or ceramides. Don’t forget to use a moisturizer with SPF to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.

Face Oil

Adding a face oil to your skincare routine can help nourish your skin and protect it from environmental stressors. Look for a face oil that contains antioxidants like vitamin C or vitamin E to help brighten and protect your skin.

Masks

Sheet masks are a great way to give your skin an extra boost of hydration and nourishment. Look for sheet masks that contain ingredients like hyaluronic acid or aloe vera, which are known for their hydrating properties. Looking for something ultra hydrating? Try our Esthemax hydrojelly masks for a skin-loving treatment.

With the right skincare routine, you can enjoy all that autumn has to offer while keeping your skin looking and feeling its best.
