August and September are over, and so marks the end of the summer season. With the weather slowly beginning to cool down, many of us will also change our skincare routines. Just when we got used to applying (and reapplying) sunscreen and light moisturizers, now that routine gets traded in for something much more moisture intensive.
For those with sensitive skin or skin conditions, finding a good routine that is easy to stick with can be challenging. Sometimes a favorite product changes or becomes unavailable. Other times they aren’t compelling enough. The journey to better skincare throughout the year can be complicated and frustrating.
How The Switch To Cooler Temperatures Affects The Skin
Just like the heat and humidity can cause irritating skin issues, such as heat rashes, sunburns, and conditions like Tinea Versicolor to act up - temperature changes to the cooler side can cause dryness and itchy skin. The skin needs moisture to maintain its health, elasticity, and youthfulness. Often, once the temperatures cool down, daily water intake also declines. This is a colossal mistake in maintaining healthy skin, so keeping track and trying to have at least eight glasses a day is essential.
When looking to change up a skincare routine, opting for a moisturizer with natural ingredients is a great choice. Skin is the body's largest organ and absorbs much of what it is exposed to. Healthy oils such as coconut, kukui nut, Moroccan (argan), and macadamia nut deliver much-needed moisture and numerous benefits!
Not All Moisturizers Are Created Equal
One of the crucial steps to keeping skin healthy all year round is using an appropriate moisturizer. Whether you opt for body oil, cream, or lotion, check the ingredients to ensure they won't be too harsh for your skin type.
Some moisturizers contain more chemicals than anything remotely natural. Initial use may give a false hope that the skin is moisturized. However, more often than not, these chemicals can dry your skin more than help nourish it. Read the labels carefully to make an informed choice before you purchase.
