Fall is almost upon us! And while we’re sad to see the summer months go, we’re
looking forward to the season’s cooler weather, gorgeous foliage,
and (of course!) warm, cozy lattes. Every season, we prep for fall by switching
out our warm-weather wear for comfy sweaters, boots, and light jackets.
But what about our beauty routines?
Our beauty products and skincare routines are in need of a swap too, light moisturizers and
gel cleansers just won’t cut it in the colder months.
Your skin has certain needs in the summer, (extra SPF for the summer sun, a face mist to cool you down,
gel moisturizers to let skin breathe), and fall weather calls for formulas that deliver
what your skin craves when exposed to dry air.
“Skin loses a lot of moisture into the environment when the air is less humid,
such as during the transition from summer to fall,” says dermatologist Rachel Nazarian, MD.
But it can be hard to choose the right skincare products.
To take the guesswork out of your skincare routine for fall, we’ve rounded up the best fall skincare tips and
products that we love to set your skin up to glow and be its healthiest yet!
10 Fall Skincare Tips for Glowing Skin
1. Use a Hydrating Cleanser
Light, foamy cleansers feel so refreshing in the summertime,
but when there’s less humidity in the air, you need a balancing
cleanser that can hydrate and doesn’t strip away moisture.
“Switch to more humectant (water-based) products in the fall and winter vs emollient
(oil-based) products in the spring and summer,”.
When looking for the perfect hydrating cleanser, you’ll find everything
from cleansing milks to creams and even gels to keep your skin feeling hydrated.
2. Exfoliate Gently and Less Often
If you’re experiencing dullness and dryness, it may be tempting
to scrub, scrub, scrub to brighten up your complexion.
But exfoliating aggressively can lead to even more dryness and irritation.
Your summer skin has more of a buffer—thanks in part to humidity
that attracts moisture to your skin—to cushion irritation that exfoliants
can bring on. Use exfoliants less often and make it one that’s easy on your skin.
Instead, if you must exfoliate, opt for a chemical exfoliant.
“Fall is a great time to start using those stronger AHAs and BHAs,
as they could sensitize the skin during the summer with a lot of sun exposure,.
If you feel your skin needs it, you can use a gentle exfoliating
toner two to three times per week. Just be sure you’re using
plenty of hydrating products in conjunction.
This is the perfect time for Yellow, or green peeling.

3. Use Vitamin C or Hyaluronic Acid Serum
Did you know hyaluronic acid is a humectant that helps bring moisture
to the skin? It’s like an all powerful skin hydration ingredient.
And when it comes to vitamin c, not only does it provide the skin with antioxidants and protection
against free radicals, it brightens your complexion by evening skin tone and fading dark marks.
Add both a vitamin c and hyaluronic acid serum into your routine to keep skin glowing
like it once did over the summer, plump, and hydrated.
4. Swap for a Richer Moisturizer
It may seem like a no-brainer, but one of the easiest ways to prep your
skin for fall is by swapping your lightweight lotion for a richer formula,
or layering them. “Dry skin requires both humectants and emollients
that draw in moisture and lock in moisture, respectively,.
A good humectant is hyaluronic acid which draws water into the
skin, and skin barrier repairing creams such as the Rapid,
Enhancing, that contains ceramides to be applied afterward.
These help decrease the loss of moisture into the environment over time.”
5. Don’t Skip the SPF!
Yup, that’s right—you need to protect your skin from sun damage
all year long (even in cold weather). “SPFs are still very important
because although the temperature drops, there’s still radiation
year-round and even a small amount of radiation can add up to the cumulative
damage that leads to skin cancer, wrinkles, pigmentary problems,
and aging of skin, “I like sunscreens that have added hydration
and are still lightweight and that protect skin from
ultraviolet light while moisturizing all day long.”
6. Keep Your Showers Short
A long soak in a tub after a cold day sounds heavenly, right?
We’re not saying to skip out on your bubble bath completely,
but limiting your exposure to hot water can go a long
way to keep your skin hydrated and happy.
Dr. Nazarian says, “Use less hot water
(hot water removes natural oils more than lukewarm) and keep showers
shorter during the dry fall season”.
7. Pick Up a New Body Cream
Moisturizing from top to toe is extremely important in the cold winter months.
“Apply moisturizer immediately after the bath, and use an emollient
(like VASELINE) after you moisturize to lock in moisture and prevent evaporation.
People also often wash their skin too aggressively, which can strip skin’s
natural moisture barrier and lead to drying,”
By moisturizing your whole body, you’re protecting and actively
rebuilding your skin barrier, which protects your skin from redness,
flakiness, and even eczema due to cold weather.
8. Buy a Humidifier
We love coming into a cozy, heated home. But your heating system can seriously
suck moisture from the air, leaving little for your skin. “You can minimize the
potential for dry skin by using a humidifier to add moisturizer into the
air during colder, drier months,”. So, when our heat goes on,
we turn on our humidifier (especially when we’re sleeping)
to help prevent moisture loss at night. Trust us, your skin will thank you for it.
9. Be Mindful of Sugar
This one isn’t so obvious to most skincare lovers as the weather turns colder.
With the holiday season approaching in the colder
months it’s natural to be eating lots of yummy sweet treats.
Our favorite fall treats are definitely apple cider donuts and pumpkin pie!
Keeping in mind foods high in sugar and refined carbs can
sometimes break out our skin due to hormone increases.
Make sure to drink plenty of water and monitor your skin —
it will tell you what it needs more of and what it needs less of!
10. Don’t Forget Your Feet, Elbows, and Lips
You might find this tip funny, why do
I need to pay attention to my feet, elbows, and lips?
Well, the bottoms of our feet and our elbows are some
of the thickest parts of our skin and they require a
lot of moisture to keep hydrated. They’re also the
parts that can lose water and hydration the quickest.
So while you’re using your body cream pay extra attention
to these areas to avoid them from getting rough and calloused.
As for your lips, they’re one of the most delicate parts of our skin.
Although they have the ability to heal quickly, you’ll want to
prevent them from cracking in the cold weather.
Keep a thick lip balm (like Vaseline or Aquaphor)
in your bag to reapply and treat them throughout the day.
