Fall Skincare with Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice
It’s time to give your skincare routine a seasonal refresh. Fall is all about cozying up and embracing the warm, comforting scents of the season— (pumpkin spice anyone?) But beyond the lattes and candles, pumpkin is actually an amazing ingredient for your skin. Packed with enzymes, vitamins, and antioxidants, pumpkin can help exfoliate, nourish, and protect your skin as we enter the ‘ber months (my favorite 🙂 )
I have a few products that I LOVE, and guarantee you will too, to keep your complexion glowing and hydrated throughout the autumn months.
1. Cleanse with Sanitas Sensitive Skin Cleanser
Before diving into those pumpkin-infused goodies, start with a gentle cleanser to remove any impurities without stripping your skin of its natural oils. The Sanitas Sensitive Skin Cleanser is perfect for the cooler months when your skin may be more prone to dryness and sensitivity. This cleanser is formulated to soothe and calm the skin while effectively cleansing, making it an excellent base. I also love that it has beta glucan and aloe to truly keep your barrier intact.
2. Exfoliate with Glo Beauty Pumpkin Enzyme Scrub
Exfoliation is key to achieving a smooth, glowing complexion, and what better way to do it than with a granular scrub? The Glo Beauty Pumpkin Enzyme Scrub is a dual-action exfoliator that combines gentle physical exfoliation with powerful enzymes from pumpkin extract. These enzymes work to dissolve dead skin cells, leaving your skin brighter and more refined. Use this scrub 1-2 times a week to slough off dead skin and reveal a fresh, glowing complexion. We also carry the travel sizes of this product to bring with you on the go.
Not a fan of granular scrubs? You’ll love this mask instead (and probably my all time favorite product we carry!)
3. Treat with Sanitas Pumpkin Enzyme Mask
If you have more sensitive skin, I would treat this mask as your exfoliating step. Treat your skin to an extra dose of pumpkin goodness with the Sanitas Pumpkin Enzyme Mask. This mask is a nutrient-rich treatment that helps to brighten, firm, and hydrate the skin. Pumpkin enzymes work alongside antioxidants and vitamins to boost skin’s radiance and protect against environmental damage. Apply the mask once a week for a rejuvenating treatment that leaves your skin feeling soft, smooth, and revitalized. The pumpkin enzymes are also organic!
4. Hydrate with HydroPeptide Barrier Boost
As the temperature drops, your skin’s barrier can become compromised, leading to dryness and irritation. While this step doesn’t have anything pumpkin related – hydration is truly key after any form of exfoliation! The HydroPeptide Barrier Boost is a must-have in your fall skincare arsenal. This rich moisturizer is packed with peptides and ceramides that help to strengthen and repair the skin’s barrier. It locks in moisture, keeping your skin hydrated and protected from the harsh elements. Apply it daily after cleansing – it can be used in the morning or night!
