As the leaves start turning and we slip into sweater season, it’s time to cozy up your skincare routine too. Fall’s cooler air and lower humidity can quickly dry out your skin, making it the perfect time to bring in those richer, hydrating textures that’ll keep your skin feeling fresh and glowy. Here's how to make sure your face is ready for everything autumn has to throw at it—whether it’s a crisp walk outside or an afternoon spent binge-watching your favorite shows.
1. Layer Up with Hydration (Hint: Face Oils are Your Friend)
We all know fall is all about layering clothes, but your skin needs layers too! Humidity levels drop in autumn, which can suck moisture from your skin faster than you’d think. This season is the perfect time to layer up your hydration by adding a daytime face oil to your routine. Our lightweight oil blends will keep your skin looking balanced, glowy, and, most importantly, hydrated—all without feeling heavy. Think of it as your skin’s cozy sweater that won’t weigh it down.
2. Boost Your PM Routine with a Heavier Hit of Moisture
Your skin does most of its repair work at night, so it needs all the help it can get. When the air cools down, switch to a richer, mid-weight oil that’ll keep your skin nourished all night long. Our recovery oil is perfect for locking in that essential moisture and setting up a healthy skin barrier while you’re getting your beauty sleep. This is especially important if you’re using actives like retinol, which can make your skin more vulnerable to dryness.
3. Embrace Antioxidants (Because Fall Has Free Radicals, Too)
Those beautiful, chilly fall days also bring their share of environmental stressors (hello, city smog, UV rays, and pollution). Your skin barrier could use a little extra armor, so try layering in antioxidants in the form of oils rich in Vitamin C and Vitamin E. These powerful ingredients can be found in our oils to help neutralize the effects of the day and keep your skin looking fresh.
4. Moisturize Morning and Night, but Keep it Flexible
Your skin doesn’t necessarily need the same thing all day, every day, so listen to it! In the morning, use a lighter oil under your sunscreen to keep your face soft without overloading it. For the evening, add a richer face oil or even layer it over a water-based serum to lock everything in.
5. Don’t Forget SPF
Just because summer’s over doesn’t mean the sun’s done! SPF is still essential for fall since those UV rays are sneaky, even through the clouds. Fall days are the perfect excuse to add a silky oil underneath your sunscreen to keep your skin plump and protected without compromising on that all-important SPF.
6. Spot Treatments are Your Seasonal BFF
Fall weather can mean more sensitivity, so if you’re dealing with dry patches or even a little redness, a few drops of oil applied directly to the area can work wonders. A good oil blend can double as a little extra boost to keep your skin calm, happy, and ready to face any fall weather changes.
And there you have it, diva! 🍂 Fall is the perfect excuse to get a little cozier in all areas of life, especially your skincare. So layer up those oils, give your skin what it needs, and let it glow right along with those autumn colors.
