AUTUMN SKINCARE 101 - 5 KEY TIPS FOR KEEPING SKIN HEALTHY

As the temperature drops and the nights start drawing in, it’s important to make sure you’re prepared for the potential impact that the change in seasons can have on your skin. Our skin is bound to change as the seasons switch up, from texture and moisture levels to elasticity and appearance. This is especially true for those who suffer with a dry skin condition like Eczema or Psoriasis. Want the lowdown on all things autumn skincare? Here’s 5 key things to remember to keep your skin looking and feeling happy, healthy and harmonious as we approach the end of the year.

GET FAMILIAR WITH YOUR SKIN

The first step in mastering your autumn/winter skincare routine is getting to grips with your own skin and understanding which irritants cause it to flare up. Is it a product you’ve used, something you’re lacking in your diet, dehydration or the colder weather that is stressing out your skin? Knowing what causes your skin to flare up is essential for informing what changes you should make and which products you should be adding into your routine.

HEALTHY MICROBIOME, HAPPY SKIN

As the cold weather disrupts the skin’s protective layer, this can leave the skin susceptible to the effects of external irritants. Feed the good bacteria in the microbiome to keep your skin healthy and protected. The entire Sorted Skin Range is formulated with prebiotic ingredients that support the skin’s microbiome layer so that your skin can carry on doing what it does best, taking care of you!

SWITCH IT UP

Time to make a switch? If your usual moisturiser just isn’t doing the job in the colder months, consider moving to a richer formula that will provide deeper nourishment for your stressed out skin. Our Intensive Rescue Moisturiser has a thick and hydrating consistency, providing up to 72 hours of moisture to dry, cracked skin. We packed the formula with 16 different essential oils and extracts, helping to restore the all-important moisture you may have lost.

PUT REDNESS TO BED

Autumn can also be a difficult time for rosacea sufferers, with the colder weather spiking an unwanted flare up of those scarlet hues. Cold and dry air, as well as indoor artificial heating can irritate the skin, causing a stinging or burning sensation. Our 5 in 1 Anti-Redness Day Cream SPF50 offers instant concealing effects with green microcapsule technology to counteract red tones, while 8 naturally-active ingredients get to work treating the underlying causes of redness, helping to soothe inflammation in the skin. Feel confident in your skin through every season!

DON’T SKIP ON BODY CARE

We know how important it is to keep your face moisturised in the colder weather, especially with harsh winds hitting your face, but you shouldn’t be neglecting the rest of your body. Boost your body care routine and keep your whole body nourished from top-to-toe. Focus on areas like your shins and hands that are likely to be exposed to the cold conditions. The Intensive Rescue Spray is a perfect on-the-go solution for itchy or dry skin. Just a few sprays and your skin will be soothed and hydrated!
