Autumn Skincare Tips: 7-Step Fall Skincare Routine
As summer fades into autumn, it’s essential to transition your skincare routine to adapt to the cooler, drier weather and changing skin needs. With the cooler weather, your skin might become more prone to dryness and flakiness. By starting to build a more hydrating and nourishing routine in the fall, you help your skin adjust and prepare for even harsher weather conditions ahead.

Care for your lips, hands and body! Skincare love shouldn't be limited to just the face—your entire body deserves attention, especially as colder, drier weather sets in.

Always keep a lip balm & a hydrating hand cream handy to apply throughout the day and lather your body after a nice shower with a hydrating body butter.

Bonus autumn tips
- Consider using a humidifier indoors to add moisture to the air.
- Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out.
- Hot showers may feel comforting in cooler weather, but they can strip your skin of natural oils and cause dryness. Opt for lukewarm water and keep showers short to prevent over-drying.
- Enjoy the crisp, cool weather and fall foliage by hiking, walking, cycling, or jogging outdoors. Fresh air and regular exercise boost mood, improve heart health, and strengthen immunity.
- Maintain a balanced routine with enough sleep, exercise, healthy eating, and relaxation techniques like meditation or yoga to stay energized and grounded.
