Fall Skin Care

Transition your skin care for fall with 4 simple dermatologist-approved product swaps!

Your skin care needs to change with the seasons, adjusting to the change in weather, temperature, ambient humidity and your activities.

Yep, just like your summer wardrobe isn't comfortable on your skin in the fall, neither is your summer skin care routine. - Dr. B

As fall weather starts pulling moisture from your skin, prevent it; make these 4 smart swaps and keep glowing, moist, healthy and comfortable skin as the weather changes.

Dermatologist's 4 Fall Skincare Swaps for Healthy Skin:

#1: Cleanse your skin using only gentle cleansers and soaps.

#2: Correct dehydrated facial skin by adding a deeply water-binding serum.

#3: Hydrate all of your skin by applying richer moisturizers and don’t skip body lotion.

Enrich your facial moisturizer with a few drops of a facial oil.
Apply moisturizer to your arms and legs after every bath or shower.
Apply hand cream after most hand washings. This means keep your hand moisturizing cream handy because fall and winter are 'chapped hand season'!
Apply lip balm often meaning keep one with you at all times.

#4: Protect all exposed skin with broad-spectrum sunscreen because damaging, melasma and age spot causing UVA is still strong.

Don’t wait until dryness begins, start now. I've got my favorite swaps below. I've also added a preemptive strike on facial redness and flaking - a fall complexion spoiler for many.
