When the seasons change, particularly when the weather starts to turn cooler, you may notice a change in your skin. Those who experience dryness might notice it gets worse when fall arrives. If you have acne or sensitive skin, you may have more flare ups. 

Since your skin changes throughout the year, it makes sense to change the products you use to deal with any skin concerns that crop up as the months and seasons change.

You don't need to swap out your entire skincare routine for new products, just a few tweaks here and there can help you glow all autumn and winter long.

Fall Skincare Swaps by Skin Type

Dry Skin

If you have dry skin, it will likely become even more dry in the fall and winter. The combination of cold weather and indoor heating wreaks havoc on your skin – the drastic fluctuations in temperature causes skin to become more dry and more sensitive. Adding an overnight treatment, hydrating masque and/or facial oil into your routine will help soothe and nourish stubborn dry and flakey skin.

Try this:

Eminence Organics Linden Calendula Treatment

Use this treatment cream either as a masque or as a night treatment. The extracts derived from fresh linden and calendula plants deeply nourish and refresh the skin’s appearance, and fine herbal oils restore the look of youthfulness and elasticity.

Eminence Organics Bamboo Age Corrective Masque

Treat the skin with this age repairing mask that uses the most powerful anti-aging technology in natural and organic skin care. This masque improves moisture and hydration levels, leaving skin firmer, tighter, smoother and more toned. 

Eminence Organics Wildflower Ultralight Oil

This multipurpose ultra-lightweight oil for the body is easily absorbed into skin, hair and nails, leaving a smooth satin finish. Ideal for use after bathing, this natural and organic dry oil absorbs quickly, providing sheer moisture to revitalize the skin’s appearance.

Eminence Organics Apricot Body Oil

Ultra-hydrating luxurious apricot oil is blended with an assortment of essential oils, such as grape seed and jojoba, to create a luscious massage oil that leaves skin feeling irresistibly soft and supple. Try it on your nails for smooth and hydrated cuticles!

Combination Skin

Combination skin can become dehydrated when the weather is cold, which can trigger a skin imbalance. When your skin’s moisture barrier isn’t strong and healthy – a common occurrence for people who have combination skin – essential moisture is lost, causing dehydration that can lead to increased sensitivity, breakouts, dryness and excess oil production. Adding products to your skin regime that help maintain and protect your skin’s moisture barrier will help alleviate the symptoms often experienced in the fall.

Try this:

Eminence Organics Clear Skin Probiotic Masque

This masque will help you attain the appearance of a radiant and clear complexion, thanks to cooling cucumber tones and refining yogurt, which exfoliates and eliminates the appearance of blemishes. 

Eminence Organics Clear Skin Probiotic Moisturizer

Use this ultra-light daily moisturizer to detoxify and clear the appearance of problem skin, while leaving behind the appearance of irritation of clogged pores. Cucumber and tea tree help prevent the appearance of blemishes and reduce the appearance of inflammation while probiotics exfoliate and soothe the complexion. 

Eminence Organics Mangosteen Daily Resurfacing Concentrate

Gently resurface and refine pores to refresh the skin’s natural appearance. The mangosteen in this leave-on concentrate promotes radiance while the Lactic Acid Complex removes and prevents buildup.

Eminence Organics Lime Refresh Tonique

A refreshing and balancing toner for all skin types, particularly normal to oily skin. It is rich in vitamin C to tone and balance the skin’s appearance. The Lime Refresh Tonique helps minimize the look of pores, heals dry skin and restores moisture.

Acne-Prone Skin

Just because your skin is breakout-prone, doesn’t mean you won’t experience dryness. Plus, since skin produces more sebum in cold weather, and dry skin and sebum will clog pores, you may notice an increase in breakouts. Exfoliating with products that contain salicylic acid will help smooth and buff dry, rough skin and keep pores clear without over-drying. Also try adding a moisturizer specifically formulated for acne-prone skin will help hydrate your skin.

Try this: 

Eminence Organics Strawberry Rhubarb Dermafoliant

Achieve a bright and radiant looking complexion with our Strawberry Rhubarb Dermafoliant. Rice powder absorbs oil while lactic and salicylic acids remove dead skin cells. The strawberries and rhubarb infuse the skin with antioxidants.

Eminence Organics Stone Crop Oxygenating Fizzofoliant 

This powder-to-foam exfoliant employs microgreens, stone crop and rice flour with adzuki powder to infuse skin with a youthful looking glow. With its light fizzing action, this revitalizing formula gently invigorates the skin and removes impurities to reveal a beautiful, brighter looking complexion.

Eminence Organics Acne Advanced Clarifying Hydrator

This ultra-lightweight hydrating lotion reduces the appearance of oily skin, resulting in a soft, matte finish. Powerful lotus extract diminishes shine, while time-release encapsulated salicylic acid reduces blemishes and breakouts. In addition, zinc hyaluronate and arbutin reduce the look of irritation and scarring.

Eminence Organics Hungarian Herbal Mud Treatment

This world-famous treatment benefits all skin types by detoxifying skin, opening pores, eliminating toxins and increasing circulation. It includes cinnamon to fight off bacteria, ivy for vitamin C, sage to tone and heal, and paprika to stimulate and refresh skin.

Oily Skin

Even oily skin becomes drier in the fall and winter which triggers an overproduction of oil, leading to even oilier skin. Although it feels wrong to use an oil-based cleanser on oily skin, it’s one of the best things you can do – especially as we enter the colder months. Using an oil-based skin cleanser will not produce more oil on your skin, instead, the gentle cleansing oils balance the skin and remove everything but skin's moisture. Products containing lemon will gently tone the skin without stripping natural oils away.

Try this:

Eminence Organics Stone Crop Cleansing Oil

Gently remove impurities and restore the look of balance with this non-greasy cleansing oil. Infused with moisturizing sunflower and jojoba oils, brightening stone crop and supercharged microgreens, this light and luxurious formula gently removes makeup and deeply cleanses to deliver dewier, softer looking skin after every use.

Eminence Organics Lemon Cleanser

With a refreshing lemon scent, this cream cleanser preserves moisture balance while gently cleansing skin. Lemon and herb oils hydrate to leave your skin soft and velvety.

Eminence Organics Stone Crop Hydrating Gel

Succulent stone crop gives the skin instant, deep-penetrating moisture that leaves skin with a smooth matte finish. This hydrating gel will soothe, heal, and even skin tone to minimize the appearance of fine lines and pigmentation. 

Eminence Organics Rosehip Whip Moisturizer

Rosehip is known for toning, soothing and regulating complexion. Combined with the moisturizing power of carrot, this moisturizer will help improve the appearance of sensitive and over-reactive skin. Perfect for oily, sensitive and reactive skin types.

Making a few simple swaps to your skincare routine will make sure you have glowing, hydrated skin all throughout the fall. It’s a great opportunity to try out new products and shake up your routine a little bit.
