Skin care needs a routine with must follow rules as soon as fall gets here. It's not just the fact we need to be careful how we fix the skin after a hot summer, but we have to keep up with the climate change that can have a negative effect on our skin.
Skin care rewrites the fall routine. This is the routine that heals and prevents a dry skin.
Any woman who likes to take care of her skin already knows when the season changes she needs to reset her skin care routine: give up a few cosmetic products and replace them with some more suitable and protect her against sun, UV, wind and cold. Generally, this type of change happens when we go from a hot to a cold season or from a cold to a hot season.
Fall skin care starts with the regeneration of dried skin during summer
Before making any changes we first need to heal the damaged skin. The most common problem after a hot season is the dry skin.
Fall skin care has a few but necessary rules to prevent dehydration!
1. Hydrate and re hydrate
This is the first step in healing your skin from the hot summer but also serves to protect your skin from the fall wind. Start by exfoliating your skin 2-3 times a week to get rid of those dead skin cells, then apply a hydrating body lotion. It is recommended to use a butter, or a rich body lotion.
2. Exfoliate with an oil based scrub
Although during summer we stay away from greasy stuff, for the cold season they are highly recommended. To keep the skin hydrated, when exfoliating use an oil based scrub ( olive oil, coconut oil, jojoba oil). When you make your own scrub at home, you have better control of the ingredients, so I would recommend you d that.
3. Ditch the soap!
If you use antibacterial and perfumed soaps, you would better get rid of them, because they contain a lot of ingredients that dry up the skin. Instead of a soap you could use a shower foam, always check the label as the best ones are labeled deep moisturizing, nourishing or cream oil. The ingredients you need are : glycerin, almond oil, jojoba oil, olive oil, Shea butter, aloe vera.
4. Invest in a very good hand cream.
During fall, hand tend to get drier because of the wind and cold. To prevent this, always keep at hand, such as your bag a hand cream to use it whenever you wash your hands or your feel your hands get dry.
5. Don't give up on SPF
Although during fall, the sun is not that strong, it doesn't mean that UV radiations are harmless. Unfortunately they can still penetrate the clouds and damage your skin. It is enough to use a day cream with SPF.
6. Buy a humidifier
Even though you will manage to heal your skin, the wind and cold an dry it again, although you hydrate it enough. That's why it is recommended to use a humidifier in your bedroom. The humidifier reduces the dryness in the air and splashes purified water, helping the skin to maintain it's hydration.
