If you’re one of those people who tweets “70 degrees and sunny in LA today!” in mid-December, this post may not apply to you. Feel free to continue reading though 🙂
For most of us, Winter is just around the corner, and even with the chilly Fall weather, this makes it necessary for us to change up our skincare routine. Time to switch out those light foam cleansers for a gel or cream cleanser, time to use a heavier moisturizer, exfoliating is always a must, and if you’re extra dry during this season, try a serum under your moisturizer.
Here are some of my favorite products for the Fall/Winter season…

The Fresh Brown Sugar Body Polish is one product I swear by all year long, but it is especially fantastic during the Fall/Winter season. My body, mostly my legs, tend to get extremely dry in the Winter and this actually cures my dryness. No joke. What I like the call the “scrub crystals” are much larger than a normal body scrub, but I think that’s what does the trick. You will feel the difference after just one use!

I’ve been using the Trish McEvoy Beauty Booster Serum for a couple months now, and it is the perfect yet simple way to “enhance” your skincare routine. A few drops of this under my moisturizer at night (can be used both day and night though) and my skin is hydrated and refreshed for the morning. Although I shouldn’t be worrying about wrinkles, I do, and the main ingredient in this serum acts a “moisture magnet” which also stimulates natural collagen production as well.

In the summer, I usually stick with a foaming cleanser, but for Fall/Winter, I switch to a gel or cream cleanser. I absolutely love SkinCeuticals so I stick with the SkinCeuticals Cleansing Cream. It not only completely cleanses your face, makeup and everything, but it gently exfoliates your skin with Hydroxy acids. This cleanser also has soothing botanicals to heal skin, plus Ginseng to improve elasticity.

The NARS Hydrating Moisture Cream is definitely my favorite night-time moisturizer I’ve ever used…and I’ve used a lot of skincare products. A little goes a long way with this product, and it is the perfect amount of hydration for your skin. This moisturizer has numerous antioxidants, which help protect skin against free radicals (which can contribute to early signs of aging) along with fennel, to smooth skin’s texture, and both Vitamins A and C for soothing purposes. An all around FANTASTIC moisturizer.
