Autumn is the time of year when we all start to bundle up, preparing for the cold weather that is about to come. It is essential that we pay close attention to our skincare regimen. Here are a few tips that will help keep your skin looking smooth, glowing and rosy.
1. Pay Attention to Changes
When the weather changes, the skin seems to follow. Many people who are used to their oily skin will now see normal or combination skin and people who have normal skin will start to see a few dry patches emerge. Remember, as your skin changes with the weather, so should the products you are using.
2. Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize
Remember this rhyme, “To keep rough skin away, moisturize everyday!” Try to use facial moisturizer with SPF in the morning, and a thicker, richer cream at night to help rejuvenate and repair the skin while you are sleeping. For the body, try to put a thick lotion on every evening when you are going to bed.
3. Don’t Forget the Sunscreen
Although you are no longer laying in the sand soaking up the sun, our skin is still easily affected by the sun’s rays. Many people forget about SPF once the weather starts to get cold, but it is especially important to wear some form of SPF every day.
4. Keep a Routine
You can apply as many products as you like to your skin, but in order to keep your skin as healthy as possible it is important to stick with a regular routine. So instead of constantly thinking about how you should be doing this or that with your skin, try to take twenty minutes of your time today to think of what your skin needs to stay healthy and when the best time would be for you to do your daily, weekly and/or monthly routine.
