Autumn Reset
As the autumn air cools down and indoor heating kicks on, your skin’s needs shift. Drop in ambient humidity combined with brisk winds can deplete your natural barrier, leading to seasonal tightness, flaking, or inflammation.
Repair summer sun damage and build a resilient moisture barrier for the months ahead. Here are a few of my favorite GlyMed Plus products and ingredients to incorporate into your fall regimen.
1. Barrier Repair & Hydration
Cold autumn air requires significantly more lipid support to prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL)- you’ve all heard me talk about this!
Mega Cream Cleanser: An ultra soothing cream cleanser packed with lavender and gentle oils to cleanse without stripping natural lipids.
Cell Protection Balm & Barrier Repair Cream: These are ideal for windburned, sensitized or compromised skin, delivering essential ceramides and protective botanicals to lock in deep moisture and help the skin heal.
Comfort Cream or Oxygen Cream: Soothing aloe for sensitive skin and restoring vital oxygenation for dull, moisture-starved skin while repairing the outer stratum corneum.
2. Brightening & Photodamage Recovery
The colder moths are the prime seasons to address sunspots and uneven skin tone.
GlyMed Plus Vitamin C Serum & Vitamin C Cream: Formulated with stable Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (MAP) and nourishing ceramides, this duo brightens pigmentation, stimulates collagen, and restores elasticity without irritating seasonal sensitivities.
Diamond Bright Skin Illuminator or Pigment Brightening Serum: Target stubborn hyperpigmentation and reveal a luminous, even complexing using gentle plant derived brighteners.
3. Gentle Exfoliation & Cell Turnover
Clear away dry, dead surface cells to allow your serums and moisturizers to penetrate deeper.
Idyllic Cleanser (with Mandelic Acid): Mandelic acid has a larger molecular size, offering gentle alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) resurfacing without causing seasonal dryness. You all know how I love Mandelic acid!
Retinol Rejuvenation Serum: With lower UV indices in the fall, now is the safest time to reintroduce or increase your retinol usage to boost cellular turnover and smooth fine lines.
Tailor Your Fall Regimen
Every skin type requires a unique balance of active ingredients and rich barrier support during seasonal shifts.
