Your Fall To Winter Guide To Combatting Dry + Dull Skin

Fall is the time where skin seems to be at its most normal. With nicer weather and no extreme temperatures comes less concerns with the skin. But as temperatures begin to drop and fall fades into winter, the atmosphere begins to become extremely dry and cold. This is when your skin needs replenishment and protection the most. The mix of dry atmosphere with little humidity draws moisture and hydration from the skin resulting in dryness and dullness. Even the heat used indoors to relieve the cold contributes even more to extreme dry skin. Dryer skin can also become more susceptible to skin irritations, and conditions can flare up such as psoriasis, eczema, rosacea and even acne.  

During this time of year, amping up your intake of moisture is vital. Your typical lighter weight moisturizer may not cut it during the coldest months of the year with more normal to dry skin types. For more oily/combination skin, choosing a moisturizer that replenishes hydration while remaining lightweight may be most helpful instead of grabbing the richest moisturizer around. The great thing is, you have options. 

When it comes to moisture replenishment and corrective treatments, we have quite the moisturizing lineup within our Calm Line. The superhero lineup for moisture-boosting hydration includes Cloud Collagen Oil, Cloud Comfort Cream and Cloud Ceramide Balm, and are safe for all skin types, including the most sensitive. 

Cloud Collagen Oil 

This is the ultimate moisture boosting and lipid replenishing oil meets serum hybrid. This one-of-a-kind oil can be used underneath moisturizers or on its own for oilier complexions, boosting the skin by replenishing lipids, brightening skin tone, synthesizing collagen and soothing irritations. Its lipid-rich content from Amaranth Squalane, Cloudberry Seed Oil, Chia Extract and Black Currant Oil helps replenish a depleted lipid system and reduces trans epidermal water loss. Plus, the antioxidant and vitamin-rich Lupine Extract, Carrot Seed Oil and Apple Extract help brighten dullness and boost collagen production. Apply this treatment following your cleansing and toning essence step, before moisturizer or for more unbalanced skin types, it can be worn on its own as a lightweight moisturizer on top of other water-based serums. For skin needing extra TLC, wear this underneath the Cloud Comfort Cream or Cloud Ceramide Balm.
