Fall is here, and if the world around you is changing, why shouldn’t your skincare routine?
If your summermoisturizersandexfoliantsaren’t giving you the glow you want, it may be time to switch it up.
After all, just because the air is gettingdrier, doesn’t mean your skin should be.
You should also cut back on exfoliants and retinoids.
As dermatologist Julia Tzu, also NYC-based, toldReal Simple, they can irritate your skin.
“The skin antioxidants can literally be depleted by all of the summer environmental exposure.”
Tzu also suggests adding lip moisturizer and eye creams to your routine.
For the lips, she says, even something as basic as Vaseline will do the trick.
With so many of us at home, that last one may be more helpful than ever.
If your routine is starting to feel wrong, trust that instinct.
