Autumn has arrived and the weather is now getting nippy, and once you’ve found products which will make up your facial skin care regime this autumn/ winter season, it’s important to understand that your efforts are not yet over!

Whilst they’re not solely confined to the colder months, the risk of developing dry, chapped hands is certainly heightened during this time, and although it isn’t a major health issue, chapped hands can look and feel horrendous.

Many people fail to pay adequate attention to ensuring that hands are nourished, although as we use our hands to express ourselves, greet others and carry out our daily activities- whether at work or at home- you need to make sure that they don’t become dehydrated.

Applying a good hand cream on a regular basis is a quick and easy way of keeping hands conditioned, and investing in a tube which can be easily popped into your handbag will ensure that you don’t neglect to nourish them.

Dermalogica Multivitamin Hand & Nail Treatment is perfect for preventing and banishing chapped hands, and provides intense moisture without leaving a sticky or greasy residue.

Don’t feel the need to hide your hands away- let Dermalogica take care of them for you this autumn.

Autumn has now firmly graced us with its presence, and with the change in seasons come various lifestyle changes. You’ve probably already started to think about your autumn/ winter wardrobe, and if this year if anything like last, you’ll need your warmest woollies.

Once the summer has made an exit, many people also make changes to their skin care regime. Many start to look for a more intense moisturiser in a bid to keep skin hydrated and protected against chilly temperatures and harsh winds, although in doing this, many confine sun protection products to the back of the beauty cabinet.

Even though the days may be duller, this doesn’t mean that your skin isn’t susceptible to damage from the sun’s rays. Exposing skin to the sun without adequate protection is a quick and easy route to premature skin aging though- not to mention potential health implications.

This is why you need to ensure that even as the temperatures fall and the days get shorter, you’re still using a product with an SPF on a daily basis.

Dermalogica has a great range of boosters and moisturisers with SPF protection, which will keep your skin protected whatever the weather.

It’s fair to say that dry, chapped lips can be unattractive and uncomfortable, although they are sometimes extremely difficult to avoid.

Some people wrongly believe that you’re only really likely to suffer with chapped lips when the weather is bitterly cold, although you can also fall victim to them during hot, dry conditions. As the weather gets colder, central heating gets turned up, and really dry indoor conditions can play havoc with the skin on your lips.

With chapped lips, prevention is always better than cure, so when you anticipate that you might find yourself in an environment where you lips might be at risk of drying out, you need to make sure that you’re armed with a product which will help to provide your lips with a barrier.

Step forward Dermalogica Climate Control Lip Treatment, which can protect the skin on your lips from extremely hot and extremely cold climatic conditions.

Dermalogica Climate Control Lip Treatment can not only protect lips, but can also help to combat existing dryness- so make it one of your must-have products this season, and enjoy smooth, supple lips.

The warmer weather is now well on its way out, and many who suffer with excessively oily skin will no doubt hope that cooler climatic conditions will provide them with a little welcome relief from the condition.

Whilst warmer weather can contribute to skin looking oiler, for many, the condition blights them all year round, and autumn will provide little respite.

Constantly having to touch up excess oil via the use of blotting sheets and pressed powder isn’t anyone’s idea of fun, although when used in combination with the right skin care products, they can go a long way in keeping skin look matte throughout the day.

When excess oil production is a problem, you not only need to find a cleanser which will help to keep the situation under control, but also a moisturiser which will hydrate skin without making the problem worse.

Once you have found products to form your basic skin care regime, you can enhance these with a specialised product, such as Dermalogica Oil Control Lotion.

Dermalogica Oil Control Lotion is a fantastic lotion which absorbs excess oil and helps to keep it at bay throughout the day. In addition to keeping skin looking matte, this great product also helps to minimise the risk of breakouts- which makes it a doubly beneficial choice.

You don’t need to spend your days struggling with excess oil when you arm yourself with the best products around.

Summer arrived and disappeared with very little in the way of sunny weather for many parts of the UK, and rather depressingly we are now at the beginning of autumn.

As you start to confine your summer outfits to the back of the wardrobe and begin to rifle through the fashion magazines to find out what’s hot and what’s not this season, there’s another important thing which you need to start thinking about- your skin care regime.

During the summer months, sun protection takes up a large proportion of most people’s skin care efforts, and whilst you still need to ensure that your skin is protected from the sun’s rays during the autumn, there are also other factors which need to be taken into consideration.

Once the autumn is in full swing, skin can start to feel a little on the dry side. Increasingly bitter climatic conditions are key contributors in making skin feel dehydrated, although investing in a more intensive moisturiser can help to keep dryness at arms length.

Colder weather and strong winds can also leave skin looking a little red, although you can counteract this through the use of a soothing boosting product.

Dermalogica has everything you need for an effective autumn skin care regime- whatever your skin type.
