Best Fall Skin Care Tips
#1 Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate!
While summer's humidity can sometimes make your skin feel oily, the drier fall air can have the opposite effect. Cold winds and indoor heating strip moisture from your skin, leading to dryness and flakiness. That’s why switching to a more hydrating moisturizer is key. Look for creams that are rich in ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, or ceramides to help lock in moisture and protect your skin’s barrier. Drinking plenty of water will also help you stay hydrated from the inside out.
If you enjoy outdoor activities like hiking or walking, keep a small bottle of moisturizer with you to nourish your skin throughout the day.
#2 Exfoliate, But Don’t Overdo It
Exfoliation is essential to slough away dead skin cells and reveal a fresh, radiant complexion. However, in the fall, it’s important to be gentle. Harsh scrubs or over-exfoliating can irritate skin that’s already sensitized by cooler weather. Opt for chemical exfoliants like alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), which help clear pores and even out skin tone without the abrasive feel of a physical scrub. Exfoliating once or twice a week will keep your skin smooth without stripping its natural moisture.
After exfoliating, treat yourself to a soothing mask or serum to calm and restore your skin—perfect for unwinding after a long day at your luxury apartment at Merit.
#3 Don’t Forget SPF
Just because summer is over doesn’t mean it’s time to ditch the sunscreen. UV rays are present year-round, even on cloudy or chilly days, and they can still cause skin damage. Using a broad-spectrum SPF of at least 30 will protect your skin from premature aging and sun damage. This is especially important if you spend time outdoors in fall activities like pumpkin picking or simply lounging in our beautiful community courtyard.
Make SPF part of your daily morning routine—even if it’s just for a quick coffee run at the nearby coffee shops or a walk around the park.
With these tips, you can make sure that you skin thrives all season long. Come home to our Lewisville luxury apartments and contact us at Merit today for more information!
