Seasonal Skincare Tips

Fall means more than decorative gourds and pumpkin spice everything—it also signals upcoming skin challenges. The dry air, harsh winds, and cooler temperatures of sweater weather can strip our skin of its natural moisture, leading to dryness, dullness, and irritation.


But with a few simple adjustments to your skincare routine, you can maintain healthy, glowing skin throughout the season.


Understanding Fall Skin Concerns


Before we dive into the solutions, let's explore some common skin concerns we often see in our patients during fall:

  1. Dryness and dehydration
  2. Dullness and loss of radiance
  3. Irritation and sensitivity
  4. Acne and breakouts
  5. Hyperpigmentation and uneven tone


To combat these issues as the weather cools, it’s essential to switch up your product routine! Incorporate:

  1. Richer moisturizers: Look for creams or oils with hyaluronic acid, ceramides, or niacinamide to lock in moisture.
  2. Gentle cleansers: Avoid harsh foaming cleansers, opting for creamy or gel-based alternatives.
  3. Exfoliating treatments: Incorporate alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs) to remove dead skin cells.

Protect Your Skin

  1. Sunscreen remains essential: Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher, even on cloudy days.
  2. Shield against wind and cold: Apply a protective serum or cream before venturing outdoors.


Hydrate from the Inside Out

  1. Drink plenty of water: Aim for 8-10 glasses daily to maintain skin hydration.
  2. Eat seasonal, skin-friendly foods: Enjoy fall fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and omega-3 fatty acids.


Target Seasonal Skin Concerns

  1. Dryness: Use humidifiers, avoid hot showers, and apply moisturizer immediately after bathing.
  2. Acne: Maintain a consistent skincare routine, avoiding heavy makeup and oily products.
  3. Hyperpigmentation: Incorporate vitamin C or niacinamide-based products to brighten and even tone.
