There are so many things to enjoy about the fall season. It’s fun to go “leaf peeping,’ relax in the cooler temperatures, taste some pumpkin-spiced treats, and sit on front porches without a care in the world. Yet, fall can also change your skincare routine. With changing seasons comes the inevitability of drier climates. This can make your skin crack and develop potential problems. To enjoy yourself during the fall season, it’s important to take care of your skin. This can be especially true in Texas where the air gets drier. If you're prone to dry skin, moisturization and exfoliation are essential fall skincare practices. Here are the best tips to keep your skin fresh, healthy, and vibrant during the fall. Moisturize Often As the seasons begin to change, humidity tends to decrease. When this happens, natural moisture on your skin depletes and makes it dry. To combat this, make sure you use moisturizer daily. Depending on your skin type, your fall moisturizer may be thicker and more robust than your summer moisturizer. Also, make sure to moisturize your lips to prevent cracking which is an essential part of our fall skincare routine.

Exfoliate Your Skin The process of exfoliation helps cleanse your face of dead skin that impede healthy skin cycles. When you build up dead skin, it keeps healthy moisture from revitalizing your skin. Use a gentle chemical or physical exfoliant during the fall to lightly sluff away buildup. This process will allow products to deeper penetrate your skin and work more effectively. Your skin will be able to drink up your moisturizer without the barrier of buildup. Use Cream, Not Lotion Moisturizing lotions can be a beneficial moisturizing solution for normal, temperate weather. Unfortunately, these lotions usually aren’t enough to treat your skin during drier seasons. Since colder months bring infectious diseases, excessive hand washing can take a toll on your skin. A thick, rejuvenating cream will help replenish your skin and keep it healthy.

Continue Wearing Sunscreen for Protection Just because the days are shorter doesn’t mean that you should stop wearing sunscreen. A change in temperature doesn’t matter, either. Skin cancer is a serious medical concern that can be prevented with sun protection. No matter how cold it gets, always wear high-SPF sunscreen. Physicians agree that regardless of the time of year, UV rays can cause harmful skin damage, and it’s simply not true that the skin and summer months are the only time of year skin is at risk. This risk is especially true for us Texans, as the southern states don’t change much from season to season regarding UV exposure.

Cut Back on Long, Hot Showers Cooler temperatures dry out the moisture in the air. This causes our skin to crack and itch. Contrary to popular belief, long, hot showers can make this even worse. Try to cut back on longer showers to prevent worsening skin problems. When taking baths, use lukewarm water and apply moisturizing cream immediately after. We know this one is tough, but it’s best in the long run not to zone out and take 20-minute hot showers! Fall in Texas The good news is that Texas falls are very temperate and comfortable. The bad news is that this can lead to increased dryness. Make sure that you’re taking care of your skin at all times, even after the summer’s over. Moisturize, exfoliate, and protect your skin from the sun during Texas falls. Get healthy skin by visiting a facial salon or receiving a facial in Houston!
