Fall Skincare 101
Just as you switch out your summer wardrobe for cozy sweaters and scarves, your skincare ritual needs a seasonal update too. Welcome to Fall Skincare 101, where we’ll teach you how to transition your skincare regimen from the heat and humidity of summer to the cooler, drier months of fall. It’s time to prep your skin for a new season of hydration, protection, and radiance!
Lesson 1: Exfoliate with a More Intense Polish
During summer, your skin is often exposed to sweat, sunscreen, and environmental pollutants, which can lead to clogged pores and a buildup of dead skin cells. Though it’s important to regularly exfoliate throughout the year, we suggest amping it up a notch to give your skin a clean slate for the new season. Our Instant Facial Polish is a more intensely exfoliating experience that our team likes to call “a mini microdermabrasion facial in a jar.” This instant exfoliator formulated with diamond cut alumina crystals helps slough away dead skin cells, revealing a brighter, smoother complexion. By exfoliating regularly, you not only improve your skin’s texture but also enhance the effectiveness of the rest of your skincare products. Aim to exfoliate 1-2 times per week to keep your skin looking its best.
Lesson 2: Nourish Your Skin with a Super Hydrating Mask
A hydrating mask can do wonders for your skin, especially as the weather gets cooler. Our super hydrating Soothing Mask is packed with hyaluronic acid to deliver a surge of moisture, soothing and plumping your skin. Use it once or twice a week for a spa-like experience at home. This mask is perfect for combating the dryness and tightness that often accompanies the transition from summer to fall and a great follow up to our Instant Facial Polish.

Lesson 2: Switch to a Richer Moisturizer
As the temperature drops, so does the moisture level in the air, leading to drier skin. Transitioning to a richer moisturizer is essential to maintaining a healthy skin barrier. Our Quench Moisturizer is formulated with jojoba, aloe vera, and vitamin e to provide deep hydration and lock in moisture, keeping your skin supple and soft throughout the fall season. Help protect against dryness, improve elasticity, and change the texture of your skin at a core level with our most luxurious moisturizer.
Lesson 3: Hydrate Throughout the Day with Facial Mists
To combat the dryness that fall can bring, it’s important to hydrate your skin throughout the day. Our Hydrating Facial Mists are perfect for a midday refresh. These mists deliver a boost of hydration, leaving your skin feeling balanced and refreshed, while providing an aromatherapeutic experience every time you spritz. Spray throughout the day whenever you need an instant boost of hydration. This is especially helpful when we move into the colder months of indoor heating, which can sap moisture from your skin.
Lesson 4: Give Your Under Eyes Extra TLC
The delicate skin under your eyes is often the first to show signs of stress and dehydration. Our Revitalizing Eye Repair is formulated with hyaluronic acid to provide intense hydration, reducing the appearance of fine lines and puffiness. Gently roll a small amount under your eyes every morning and evening to keep this sensitive area looking bright and revitalized. Adding this extra step to your routine will make a noticeable difference as the season changes.
Lesson 5: Hydrate Your Body from Head to Toe
While we often focus on facial skincare, it’s equally important to take care of the skin on our bodies, especially as the weather turns colder. Our new Luminous Body Polish with prickly pear is the perfect addition to your fall body care ritual. This exfoliating polish gently removes dead skin cells, revealing smoother, more radiant skin while the prickly pear deeply hydrates. Follow up with our rich Body Lotions to lock in moisture for long-lasting hydration. These lotions are formulated with nourishing ingredients like aloe, jojoba, and coconut oil that soothe and protect, ensuring your skin feels soft, supple, and cared for from head to toe.
More Tips to Prep Your Skin for Fall:
Don’t Forget SPF: Even though it’s not as sunny, UV rays can still cause damage. Continue to apply SPF daily to protect your skin from premature aging and hyperpigmentation. We suggest starting the day with our lightweight Luminous Moisturizer with SPF 30 and using a more rich moisturizer, like our Quench Moisturizer in your PM ritual so your skin can soak in all the hydrating goodness as you sleep.
Increase Your Lip Care: Lips can become chapped and dry as the weather cools. Start using a hydrating balm or gloss that treat signs of dehydration with moisturizing ingredients like hyaluronic acid.
Stay Hydrated: As the air gets drier, your skin needs hydration from the inside out. Make sure you’re drinking plenty of water throughout the day to help maintain your skin’s moisture levels.
