Sensitive skin often needs a little extra care as the weather cools. A simple four-step routine keeps things gentle while adding the comfort fall calls for.
What are the four steps of a fall sensitive-skin routine?
A gentle fall routine for sensitive skin is just four steps: a mild cleanser, a hydrating step, a comforting moisturizer, and daily SPF. This covers cleansing, hydration, barrier comfort, and protection without piling on strong actives that can leave sensitive skin reactive.
Which products suit each step?
Start with a gentle cleanse, such as the Gentle Black Fresh Cleansing Oil for the evening, add a hydrating step like the Supple Preparation Unscented Toner, and seal with a comforting Rich Moist Soothing Cream, finishing with sunscreen by day. Our guide to cleanser types helps you pick a cleanse.
What should sensitive skin avoid in fall?
Ease off strong exfoliants and added fragrance while the air is drying, and introduce anything new one step at a time. Keeping the routine simple lowers the chance of a reaction as the season changes.
