Crisp morning air, wet windy days – autumn is truly upon us. Now’s the time to add a little TLC to your skincare routine.
Top 3 Autumn Skincare Tips
1. Switch to a Cream Cleanser
If you’ve had a facial at Drift or read my previous cleansing tips you know I am a huge fan of cream cleansers. With the cooler autumn air, now is the perfect time to make the switch. A cream cleanser won’t dry out your skin like water based cleansers can. They are suitable for all skin types and when used in conjunction with a face cloth, provide exfoliation benefits too.
Drift Escentuals has 3 types of cream cleansers:
At $25 for 100ml this is great value and includes a free face cloth.
- Gentle Safflower - all skin types
- White Willow Bark - skin prone to blocked pores and breakouts
- Balancing - oily or dry sensitive, easily irritated skin
At $25 for 100ml this is great value and includes a free face cloth.
2. Add a Natural Face Serum
Organic Rosehip OIl Incorporating a facial oil in to your routine at this time of year will give your skin a much needed boost. Simply add a few drops to your moisturiser for added hydration or smooth on as a serum after cleansing. There is no ‘miracle’ facial oil – what’s important is choosing an oil that is best suited to your skin type. To help you choose, learn more about which oils are best suited to your skin type from 'The Facts on Facial Oils'.
3. Exfoliate from Top to Toe
Autumn is also the perfect time to slough away dead skin cells and start a fresh with radiant looking skin. Check out the DIY Rejuvenating Face Mask Recipe or better yet, treat yourself to a relaxing Drift Facial. Depending on your skin type mechanical exfoliation, exfoliating enzymes or natural AHAs and BHAs may be used along with rejuvenating mask treatments that will have you feeling sparkly and new.
It's important not to forget the rest of your body. Because of this I've introduced a Full Body Facial which extends the Drift Facial to include all of the body. This is the ultimate all over skincare experience - full body scrub, body wrap and hydrating massage along with my signature relaxing facial.
