Your Fall Glow Starts Here!
The fall is a dangerous time for everyone, regardless of skin type, but can be especially debilitating for people with sensitive skin. And though this may seem like a problem for only a few people, this isn't true. In fact, the fall climate affects more people than you might think.
That’s because 60-70 percent of women report having some form of skin sensitivity, and 50-60 percent of men experience skin sensitivity, making this season a potentially harmful one for everyone. (1)
But there’s no need to worry about your skin health this season anymore, as new research and ALL-NATURAL SKIN CARE PRODUCTS promise to not only REMEDY pre-existing skin issues, but to also PREVENT your skin health from worsening this fall.
In this blog we talk about how to care for your sensitive skin this fall, and how to enjoy RADIANT SKIN all fall long!
OUR FALL SECRET
The fall can make people of all skin types suffer, but people with sensitive skin are especially vulnerable to the fluctuating seasonal conditions of fall. Those who need to be extra wary of fall are those who experience easily irritated skin, and those are prone to itching, redness, stinging feelings, and inflammation. Those who don’t experience sensitivity, but have flakes and rashes, can also be considered at risk this fall.
People with contact dermatitis are also closely associated to those with sensitive skin, as are people with skin allergies. And no matter what you feel on a day to day basis, you may be at increased risk of skin issues this fall if your skin reacts quickly to sweat, the sun, chemicals, your clothes, or makeup. (2)
And if you do have sensitive skin, don't feel guilty. Sensitive skin can specifically be damaging to those with a genetic disposition to it, as their layer of skin is fundamentally different compared to average skin. These people may face skin irritation so damaging that their skin actually becomes inflamed, leading to short-term and long-term health complications. (3)
FUN FACT: In some countries, over ninety percent of women say they have sensitive skin. Protect your sensitive skin this fall with natural ingredients and soothing essential oils meant to nourish - not harm - your skin. (4)
Now here comes the hard part for people with sensitive skin to hear: the fall is a sharp contrast to the warm and moist summer months. In fact, the drier and colder weather of fall will become increasingly damaging to those with sensitive skin as the season wears on.
One of the best ways to prevent this is by using the right ALL-NATURAL SKIN CARE PRODUCTS. This is because many of the soaps people use in the fall (especially over-the-counter bar soaps) are dangerous for those with sensitive skin, stripping oils that are already compromised from the harsher weather. To prevent the deterioration of your skin this fall, GENTLE SOAPS are needed to aid in skin health and protection. (5)
The other danger of fall for those with dry skin is the temperature fluctuation that can come with just a moment’s notice. In fact, the temperature in fall can swing around twenty degrees in a matter of hours, which can be especially difficult for your skin to react and adjust to. (6)
FALL-READY SKIN TODAY!
One of the best ways people with sensitive skin can enjoy great skin health this fall is by focusing on moisture. This is because maintaining strong levels of skin hydration offers added protection against the colder, drier, and windier fall climate. It’s also important to note that choosing a moisturizer with SUN PROTECTION is essential in the fall, not just summer.
This recommendation to increase moisture and hydration extends to when indoors as well, which will fight the complications of furnaces and indoor heating. Without proper hydration when indoors, your skin will become drier throughout the day, leaving you with the added risk of skin complications and deterioration. (7)
People who are prone to breakouts also need to be careful of fall dryness. Even if you don’t experience acne, you may feel small bumpy marks with pustules, which can cause and worsen common symptoms of acne. The best way to fight this is by using gentle ALL-NATURAL SKIN CARE PRODUCTS that can remedy acne symptoms before the fall can make them worse. (8)
FUN FACT: Any synthetic ingredient can cause skin irritation. Protect your skin all fall long by checking ingredient labels, consulting a doctor before use, and avoiding artificial fragrances in your fall self-care routine. (9)
To prevent the deterioration of your sensitive skin this fall, you need to be mindful of what’s in the skin care products you use. This is because you can’t control the weather, but you can control what you do to protect your skin from it. Avoiding artificial fragrances is one way to prevent common sensitivity problems like itching, dryness, and burning.
It’s also essential that your skin care products don’t irritate your skin and make the dangerous climate even worse. To avoid the stripping of your skin's fatty acids and your natural skin barrier, avoid sulfates and chemicals, and instead opt for ALL-NATURAL and GENTLE SKIN CARE PRODUCTS that you can use confidently and consistently as part of your daily SKIN CARE ROUTINE. (10)
It’s also important that you aren’t hard on yourself. That’s because sometimes fall temperature fluctuations come quickly, and other times it’s a gradual process. Therefore, give yourself time to understand the way your skin reacts to the weather, and how you can best care for your sensitive skin before the weather shocks your skin into reacting in negative ways.
