Now's the time to rejuvenate and repair your skin

Let’s be honest, nobody likes having dry flakey skin, but unfortunately for us, the sun’s UV rays, along with seasonal changes in weather can cause damage to the skin, causing it to become dry and itchy. But it’s not just those who suffer from "dry skin" who should be worried. According to Dr. Purvisha Patel, board-certified dermatologist and creator of Visha Skincare, without proper hydration, your skin can look dull and old regardless of whether you have normal, dry, combination, or oily skin. With that in mind, here are Dr. Patel’s top tips on how to keep your skin looking and feeling its best during this seasonal transition.

Switch to a thick moisturiser
SPF is important year-round
Use natural fragrance-free soaps

“Starting a new seasonal skincare routine in your shower is the key to ensuring your skin stays healthy and moisturised during autumn. Harsh ingredients found in regular soaps can throw off the essential moisture in your skin, so instead look for soaps made from glycerin, goat milk, Shea butter or olive oil, which are much gentler on the skin.”
