As the weather changes, so should your skincare routine. Fall brings cooler temperatures, drier air, and less humidity, all of which can affect the health and appearance of your skin. At Locke Hair & Wellness in St. Louis, MO, we want to help you maintain glowing, hydrated skin throughout the season. Here are some essential fall skincare tips, along with product suggestions that you can pick up from our salon.
1. Switch to a More Hydrating Cleanser
In the cooler months, your skin loses moisture faster, so it’s important to use a gentle, hydrating cleanser that preserves your skin’s natural oils.
Product Suggestions: PCA Creamy Cleanser or KrX Strengthen + Protect Probiotic Face Wash.
2. Exfoliate Regularly, but Gently
With the changing weather, dead skin cells accumulate more easily, leading to a dull complexion. Regular, gentle exfoliation helps keep your skin fresh and radiant.
Product Suggestions: PCA Resurfacing Serum or Dermathod Priming Peel Booster.
3. Add a Richer Moisturizer
Indoor heating and cold winds can leave your skin feeling dry. Switching to a richer, more emollient moisturizer helps lock in hydration during the fall.
Product Suggestions: PCA Hyaluronic Acid Boosting Serum or KrX Essence Cream Pads.
4. Don’t Skip Sunscreen
Even though it’s cooler, UV rays are still damaging. Sunscreen is a year-round necessity to protect your skin from premature aging and sun damage.
Product Suggestions: PCA Sheer Tint Broad Spectrum SPF 45 or Dermathod Derma Saver Sun Protection SPF 50+.
5. Incorporate Antioxidants
Fall is an excellent time to add antioxidant-rich serums, such as Vitamin C or E, into your skincare routine. These serums help repair summer sun damage and protect against environmental stress.
Product Suggestions: PCA C&E Advanced or KrX HA + Vitamin C Serum.
6. Focus on Lip Care
The cooler air can dry out your lips, so it’s crucial to use a hydrating lip balm to keep them soft and moisturized.
Product Suggestions: PCA Hyaluronic Acid Lip Booster or KrX Aesthetics Pocket Filler Lip Plumping Gloss.
7. Use a Hydrating Mask Weekly
A hydrating mask can provide your skin with a much-needed moisture boost and help combat the drying effects of fall weather.
Product Suggestions: PCA Hyaluronic Acid Overnight Mask or PCA Hydrating Mask.
8. Consider Retinoids or Peptides for Repair
Fall is the perfect time to start repairing summer damage with retinoids or peptides. These ingredients help boost collagen production and improve skin texture.
Product Suggestions: PCA Pro-Max Age Renewal Serum or KrX Youthplex Face Lift Serum.
By following these skincare tips and making seasonal adjustments, you can keep your skin healthy, hydrated, and glowing all autumn long.
