Changing skincare for autumn🍂
It’s time to turn over a new leaf when it comes to your skincare routine. For an awesome autumn look see our top tips below.
Let’s face it…
As summer turns to autumn, the colder, rainier weather outside and centrally heated temperatures indoors combine to create a perfect storm, drying out your skin and making it look dull and lifeless. This will add to the damage already done by the summer sun.
Autumn is a great time to repair and prepare for the onslaught of winter with some serious exfoliating, hydrating and moisturizing.
Why not treat yourself to an autumn session at the salon to ensure your skin looks healthy and glowing for the coming season? And we can also advise you on the right at-home skincare products.
Heavenly bodies
With so much emphasis on looking after our facial skin it’s very easy to forget the rest of us. But our bodies also need lots of TLC at this time of year, so don’t neglect them.
You can use the same facial products on your neck and chest as part of your regular skincare routine.
And remember to also exfoliate your arms, legs, chest and back two or three times a week. Ask us to recommend which exfoliator will be best for you.
Retinol radiance
Retinol products are perfect to amp up your autumn look as they encourage skin renewal and collagen production as well as reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. As an added bonus they can also help to reverse sun damage. We have some effective retinol skincare products and will be happy to give you advice on how to use them – especially if you haven’t tried them before. For example, they’re best used at night as sunlight can reduce their effect.
Sunscreen isn’t just for summer…
Sunny days may start to be a distant memory, but it’s still vital to apply a good sun protection cream whenever you’re out and about.
Make it a daily part of your skincare regime throughout the year – even during winter. This is especially important to help protect your skin when using any retinol products.
I personally like Elta MD UV Daily SPF 40 for the cooler months as it’s lightweight, non-greasy and contains hyaluronic acid that helps bind the moisture in the skin which is so much needed for the colder months.
Reveal your hidden depths…
Chemical peels rejuvenate and refresh by revealing new glowing skin ready for autumn. Peels come in various strengths so why not pop in for a chat to help you decide which one is right for you.
