Tips to taking care of your skin during this autumn
Autumn is coming, but do not allow the illusion of chill weather and cloudy days enchant you, for our skin must be protected at all costs, even when it appears to be in good shape.
As the trees go bare, a new season born and just as we change our wardrobes for thicker Pret-a-Porter pieces, we must upgrade our skincare routines.
If you are keeping an eye on your skin, you probably should see some consequences of the all-mighty summer. It is no secret that an excessive tanning brings hyperpigmentation; heat, dehydration; and the drastic temperature changes that come with the arrival of the autumn could be devastating to your skin health.
Some symptoms such as dryness will contribute to the destruction of the protective barrier of your skin, laying down a red carpet for all those free agents to come inside.
How can we protect our skin against all those changes? We give you all the tips you could need to face this autumn:
- CLEANSE LIKE THERE IS NO TOMORROW
It may appear that your skin is always clean, but the accumulation of dirt that obstruct your pores may be invisible and should be always cleaned morning and night.
The daily usage of a milky facial cleanser -such as md:ultrasense cleanser™– must never go out of your routine.
- MOISTURISE YOUR SKIN BARRIER
As we pointed earlier, it is of enormous importance to rebuild your skin protective barrier to prevent dryness and to retain hydration. Some creams such as the CFC:9 Multi-lipid Replenishment will help you rebuild your skin architecture enhancing the lipid production and cell regeneration.
- NEVER STOP USING SUNSCREEN
Our skin is constantly damaged by UVA and UVB radiation and it does not stop, even in cloudy days, so it is of great importance never stop using sunscreens. You should go for a SPF +50 and if it also has a moisturizing and whitening effects such as the 3D Moisturizing Sunscreen Protection, even better.
- EXFOLIATE
Skin renewal is always advisable. Peeling out your old, damaged skin will contribute to a fresher and brighter look. Some of these powerful treatments must be performed in specialized clinics, but others formulated in a more gentle way (with lower acid concentration) -such as md:prepeel Beta & AHAs Complex 8%– could be the perfect solution for home skincare.
- HAVE A VARIED DIET
Our diet has a direct impact on the look of our skins, which reflects our health. It is very important to keep a varied diet, avoiding regularly saturated fats and consuming regularly well-processed aliments. You are what you eat, so you must eat beautifully.
Autumn stress might come over you but with these tips, at least your skin will look amazing…
