Transitioning to Autumn Skin Care Routine.
1. Gently Cleanse Your Skin
Skin cleansing is extremely important as your skin is exposed to various elements throughout the day. Every type of skin requires both morning and evening cleansing. If you have oily skin, you might even cleanse multiple times a day. In the evening, we remove accumulated impurities from the day, including makeup.
In the morning, we remove excess sebum and metabolic residues, as well as some dead cells that the skin has shed overnight. Uncleaned skin is more prone to acne breakouts, dehydration, and premature aging. At the start of autumn, switch to gentler cleansers. High temperatures, increased sweating, and overall summer activity often prompt us to use stronger cleansers.
2. Don’t Forget the Toner
Many people overlook the use of toner. If you aren’t already using one, autumn is a great time to start. Toner helps balance the skin’s pH and removes residual impurities and dirt. The purpose of toner is to refresh the skin gently without stripping its natural moisture.
This means that the toner shouldn’t สมัครสมาชิก UFABET วันนี้ รับเครดิตฟรีทุกวัน irritate sensitive skin or cause excessive drying. Toner also prepares the skin to better absorb moisturizer after cleansing and any other skin care treatments you use.
3. Use a Richer Moisturizer
A lightweight moisturizer might be sufficient for summer conditions. However, as temperatures drop and humidity decreases, our skin needs more intense hydration. Autumn air is dry and cold, which can quickly lead to dry skin. Lightweight moisturizers suitable for summer might not be enough to maintain moisture balance in your skin.
4. Protect Your Skin with Sunscreen
Sunscreen is a crucial part of any autumn skincare routine. This is because autumn is a time when a lot of UV damage accumulates. We often think that as temperatures decrease, the sun is less harmful, but that’s not true.
While UVB rays (responsible for tanning and sunburn) might not be as strong, UVA rays (responsible for skin cancer and premature skin aging) are just as potent as they are in summer.
This explains why sun protection is essential year-round. Make sure to apply sunscreen daily to your face, neck, and any exposed skin, regardless of whether it’s sunny or rainy!
5. Reincorporate Retinol into Your Skin Care
If you stopped using retinol during the summer, now is the time to reintroduce it into your skincare routine. Retinol, often hailed as one of the skincare world’s superheroes, is one of the most effective ingredients in modern skincare (alongside SPF protection).
