5 Must Have Items For Fall

Fall is right around the corner and for some of us already in the air. It's time to vamp our medicine cabinets with new items for our skin. Here is a must have list:

1. Sunscreen Moisturizer
Rain or shine, we still need to protect our skin from UV rays. Make sure your moisturizer contains SPF. This skin care item should be like your toothbrush, you wouldn't go on a trip without it. We have fabulous new sunscreens on the way by PCA Skin.

2. Treatment Serum
Summer is over, it's time to rejuvenate. To much sun exposure can lead to hyperpigmentation or trips to hotter climates can lead to hydration loss. Whatever your need or goal, find a serum that feeds your skin the missing elements it needs. I really like Retinol Renewal or Hydration Serum by PCA Skin. (Can you tell I am a fan of PCA?)

3. Night-time Moisturizer
As seasons change, so does our skin. Look at the active ingredients in your night-time moisturizer. Do they help diminish past sun damage? Does your hydrator feel heavy or light after applying? How does your skin feel as we move into cooler weather? I have clients who use a Fall/Winter moisturizer and a Spring/Summer moisturizer.

4. A New Lipstick!
Lipsticks might not help your skin, but they sure do make you feel better. I love the new Fall colors. Put away the pastels and nudes and look for a new, rich lip color.

5. Get a Facial Treatment
If you aren't sure what new products to buy or use, ask your aesthetician! Make an appointment to evaluate your skin and create a new plan for Fall and Winter. While you are there, treat yourself to a facial treatment suited for your skin type. Microdermabrasions and chemical peels are very popular during the winter months. Do I keep saying winter?
