With the arrival of fall, weather changes can disrupt the natural balance of your skin , making it dry and irritated.
To avoid these inconveniences, it is crucial to adopt a care routine adapted to the specific needs of your skin during this transitional period .
Here are some tips to ensure your skin maintains its radiance during this change of season.
1. Focus on intense hydration
As temperatures drop, the skin tends to dehydrate more quickly , which can lead to feelings of tightness and discomfort. It is therefore essential to increase hydration intake to compensate for this loss.
Serums and creams rich in humectant ingredients such as hyaluronic acid are particularly recommended . Hyaluronic acid is known for its ability to retain water, its structure allows it to attract and hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it an extremely effective moisturizer. You can choose Théobroma Serum (TH3+) , with a formula enriched with plant-based hyaluronic acid and vitamin E.
In addition to drinking enough water daily, apply a hydrating mask once or twice a week to optimize moisture retention and strengthen the skin barrier. We recommend this nourishing face mask , a combination of clay and cocoa bean nibs.
Finally, we advise you to use your moisturizer after cleansing your skin to lock in moisture, applying it with gentle, circular movements. This helps maximize the absorption of active ingredients and maintain healthy, glowing skin that is softer and smoother.
2. Opt for gentle exfoliation
Exfoliation consists of removing dead skin cells without damaging the epidermis . Opt for natural exfoliants like fruit enzymes, white clay or nut powders, which are effective while remaining respectful of your skin.
Recommended frequency : once a week. This helps renew the skin while preventing irritation and maintaining hydration.
Be sure to always moisturize your skin after exfoliation to strengthen the skin barrier.
3. Adapt the frequency of skin care
During seasonal transition periods like fall , it is crucial to adjust the frequency of care to meet the changing needs of your skin, including hydration and protection.
As fall approaches, reduce the frequency of exfoliation to avoid weakening the skin. Indeed, excessive exfoliation can remove the skin's natural protective barrier, leading to dryness and irritation.
If during the summer you have accustomed your skin to two scrubs per week, now switch to gentle exfoliating treatments weekly. You will thus maintain a balance between elimination of dead cells and skin protection .
For dry or sensitive skin , exfoliating every two weeks may be more appropriate, ensuring you don't exacerbate dryness or redness issues.
Finally, always adapt the frequency of your treatments according to the specific needs of your skin during each change of season. Listen to your skin and adjust if necessary.
4. Protect the skin from bad weather
With the arrival of autumn, weather conditions can weaken your skin by exposing it to cold, wind and variations in humidity . It is therefore essential to create a protective barrier to preserve your epidermis.
Choose creams rich in moisturizing agents and natural oils to strengthen this skin barrier and avoid dehydration and irritation.
SPF30 (TH3+) Day Cream prevents premature aging and hyperpigmentation and activates cell regeneration for a luminous complexion. It contains plant-based hyaluronic acid and vitamin E to maintain a good level of hydration.
5. Take care of your body
The skin on your body can also be affected by the temperature changes associated with the arrival of autumn.
Just like for the face, adopt a gentle exfoliation routine to remove dead cells accumulated during the summer, thus promoting cell renewal.
Then use rich moisturizers, like body butters or lotions with nourishing ingredients like shea butter or sweet almond oil, to maintain a well-hydrated skin barrier protected against dryness . Our nourishing body treatment is the ideal choice. It sustainably hydrates the body and helps the skin regain its elasticity.
Finally, consider taking lukewarm baths or showers, rather than hot ones, to avoid drying out the skin.
