Thanksgiving is right around the corner and so is the daunting fall that can leave your skin in a bad place if you don’t take care of it. It goes without saying that during the winter months your skincare routine has to change a bit. Every good product you have gotten used to during summers shouldn’t be dragged to the last months of the year, the colder temperatures will make your skin dry and frigid add the inside heat that will be taking away essential nutrients from your skin while also stealing away the moisture from your skin. You might have redness and irritation and even skin sensitivity due to this.
This is why you should have a different skin routine for the fall, in this article we will give you a step-by-step guide to skincare for fall. So what are you waiting for, strapon
1. Transition your skin products
You have to switch your skin products, your cleanser will be switched to a balm, oil, or cream cleanser. This is done because foaming will expose your sin to sulfates that can dry up your skin more during winters. If you are predisposed to acne then you should go for skincare that primarily takes care of acne, go for products that are PH-Optimized, start slow and ease into it gently.
2. Use Exfoliator
Exfoliation is a gift, if you do it right and you do it gently then your skin will glow and be very good at absorbing moisture, everyone knows that. Exfoliation generally helps remove dead skin cells that are accumulated from dry winter. During winters you should do it at least once a week but not more since overdoing it would cause your skin more damage, it is a common problem with the exfoliator community since it feels so good after doing it once you get used to the result, you keep doing it till the skin is exposed to dryness and irritation. Be wary of that.
3. Hot Showers are a NO
It may seem like an ideal time for a long steamy shower but for your skin, it is not the best idea, hot water during winters steals away the organic moisture of one’s skin, so go for brief showers in lukewarm temperature. Get a good-quality moisturizer that will help the hydration of your skin. You will have to do up your moisturizing game since it is not summer anymore you need more of it.
4. Winter Sunscreen is a must
Do you think you can take a break from the UV rays just because you don’t see the sun that often? Well, you are wrong. Overdoing your skin is a problem but the bigger problem here is that if you don’t apply sunscreen during winters then you are exposing it to bigger problems later on. UV rays are known to reflect off of snow as well, so you can get sun damage even in the cold. Other than that when you go out layer your skin with a good quality moisturizer, you can’t just wear an extra layer of clothing and think that enough, layer your skin too.
5. Try an overnight mask
Winter is a great time to start the routine for a face mask and go for an overnight one, this is an important step since this becomes the final step to your skincare routine for winters. What overnight masks do is that they hold all the benefits of a serum, cream, and oil that you have used before. A mask will hold all the skincare wellness and have them work on your skin while you take a good night’s sleep. You can further the effect of this if you sleep in a room that has a humidifier instead of just the heater. This is the last step to skincare during winters but this is the most important one. Inculcate these habits slowly in your routine and watch your skin take no time in getting used to it.
Conclusion
These are all the things that you should keep in mind during winters, it is an equally important time for your skin, don’t let it dry, and don’t let it be without the care it needs.
