As the seasons change and the air becomes cooler and drier, it’s the perfect time to adjust your skincare routine to ensure your skin stays healthy and hydrated. Fall brings new environmental challenges for your skin, from decreased humidity to harsher winds, so it’s essential to make a few key changes to keep your skin radiant and nourished. In this guide, we’ll walk you through simple yet effective steps to help your skin thrive during the colder months, from boosting hydration to incorporating nourishing oils.
Here's how you can easily transition your skincare routine for fall!
Step 1: Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate
Opt for a luxurious cream-based moisturizer with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and ceramides. These ingredients lock in moisture and create a protective shield against the harsh, dry air. Consider exploring natural oils rich in ceramides and fatty acids to give your skin a nourishing and hydrating boost.

Step 2: Sunscreen is Essential
Remember the importance of sun protection, even during the fall and winter months. Protect your skin from potential UV damage and premature aging by using a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily.
Step 3: Gentle Exfoliation
Indulge in a exfoliation routine for your face and body to eliminate dead skin cells and reveal a fresh, radiant complexion. Treat your skin to the luxurious experience of an emulsified sugar scrub, which provides gentle exfoliation and nourishes and pampers your skin with its rich oils and waxes.
Step 4: Switch to Nourishing Cleansers
Embrace the soothing and replenishing properties of oil-based cleansers. They effectively remove impurities and makeup while lavishing your skin with essential hydration during the fall season. For an extra nourishing touch, try our goat milk soap infused with sunflower oil. It offers a rich blend of vitamins and fatty acids to moisturize and rejuvenate even the most sensitive skin.
Step 5: Incorporate Facial Oils
Elevate your skincare ritual with the opulent touch of facial oils rich in omega fatty acids. These precious elixirs, such as rosehip or argan oil, fortify your skin's protective barrier, ensuring that your skin remains exquisitely hydrated and radiant.
Step 6: Care for Your Lips and Hands
Your lips and hands deserve extra care and attention as the crisp air sets in. Treat them to the sumptuous comfort of lip balms and hand creams enriched with natural oils and butter. These balms and creams cocoon your lips in moisture and softness. Luxurious ingredients like shea butter and glycerin ensure your lips and hands remain pampered and protected, especially during the colder months. Explore bee bars and salves made with herb-infused sunflower oil and beeswax for even deeper nourishment, which create a natural barrier to lock in moisture and soothe dry, chapped skin.
Step 7: Consider a Humidifier
Consider introducing a humidifier into your living space to combat the drying effects of dropping temperatures and reduced humidity levels. This addition infuses the air with moisture, ensuring your skin is hydrated and free from dry, flaky patches.
Adjusting your skincare routine is essential for maintaining healthy, glowing skin as the seasons shift and the air becomes more relaxed and drier. Nourishing moisturizers, gentle exfoliation, and protective oils will help your skin stay hydrated and radiant throughout the colder months. Remember, minor changes like using a humidifier and switching to cream-based cleansers can significantly affect your skin's overall health.
