Your September Skincare Reset: Transitioning from Summer to Autumn 🍂

As the seasons change, so do your skin’s needs. After months of sun, heat, and humidity, September is the perfect time to reset your skincare routine and prepare for the cooler, drier days ahead. By making a few simple adjustments, you can keep your complexion smooth, hydrated, and radiant all autumn long.

1. Hydration, Hydration, Hydration 

Summer sun and air conditioning can leave your skin dehydrated. As the weather cools, switch to richer moisturisers that lock in moisture and strengthen your skin barrier. Look for ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid to attract and retain water, and Shea Butter for deep nourishment.

Try: Hyaluronic Acid Day Moisturiser for all-day hydration.

2. Repair Your Skin Barrier 

UV exposure and environmental stress can weaken your skin barrier, leading to dryness, redness, or sensitivity. September is the time to focus on barrier-repairing ingredients like Ceramides, Niacinamide, and Bakuchiol. These help rebuild resilience and keep your skin balanced.

Try: Retinol & Bakuchiol Facial Serum to support repair and renewal overnight.

3. Don’t Ditch the SPF 

Cooler days don’t mean the sun stops ageing your skin. UV rays remain one of the biggest contributors to fine lines, pigmentation, and premature ageing, even in autumn. Make SPF your non-negotiable final step every morning.

Try: Anti-Ageing SPF50+ Day Moisturiser for daily protection with added hydration.

4. Add an Exfoliation Boost 

After summer, your skin may feel dull or uneven. Gentle exfoliation helps slough away dead cells, brighten your complexion, and prep your skin to absorb serums and creams more effectively.

Try: Salicylic Acid Exfoliator 60ml for smoother, refreshed skin.

Final Thoughts 

Think of September as a fresh start for your skin. With a little extra hydration, barrier care, gentle exfoliation, and year-round SPF, you’ll step into autumn with a complexion that looks healthy, firm, and radiant.
