Fall is here and I am more than thrilled, but my skin definitely isn’t. The slightest change from warm to cooler weather changes my skin entirely. About 4 years ago, I had terrible acne and have since completely cleared up after taking Accutane. Accutane worked wonders for me, but it has left my skin to get a tad bit dryer than usual when the cooler months come around. Ever since then, I made my skincare a priority. If I’m too lazy to do my skincare for the day or night, I can totally tell the difference, which has made me realize how important of a step skincare should be in your everyday routine.
First thing is first, face wash! I use CereVe’s Foaming Facial Cleanser. It’s not too harsh on my skin and leaves my face feeling SO clean.
Next, I use Burt’s Bees Micellar Cleansing Water. I take a little bit of this on a cotton pad to wipe all over my face. It cleanses my face from the stubborn things that my face wash couldn’t get while hydrating my skin at the same time.
This next product is something I have recently discovered and will definitely be repurchasing in the near future. Versed’s Brightening Eye Gel has revived my under eyes.
Aveeno’s Ultra-Calming Daily Moisturizer is the PERFECT addition to your routine, especially if your face tends to get red.
Lastly, I always end my skincare by taking care of my lips! My favorite lip products are Burt’s Bees Lip Scrub, Fresh’s Sugar Mint Rush Chapstick, and Awake’s Lip Mask.
If I’m feeling it that day, I will do a face mask with Bliss’ Mint Chip Mania. It feels so calming and cooling on my face and I love to rub the fake chocolate chips into my skin right before rinsing!
Don’t wait for the harsh winter weather to come around – get ahead of the game by starting to take care of your skin now!
