The Great Fall Reset

The Great Fall Reset
The Science of Seasonal Skin

As humidity drops, the air begins pulling water from wherever it can, including your skin. Add indoor heating, hotter showers, and the friction of sweaters and scarves, and you’ve got the recipe for dehydration, tightness, and dullness.

Your skin barrier (the outermost layer that locks in moisture and blocks out irritants) has to work harder in the fall. When it weakens, you might notice redness, flakiness, or that post-shower tight feeling.

The fix isn’t complicated: support the barrier, don’t strip it, and hydrate with intention.

Hydration Is the Headline

Colder air holds less moisture, which means your skin is losing hydration faster than it can replace it. Looking for one simple solution: moisturize.

It's easy in the summer months to fall out of the habit of moisturizing. Now is when you'll notice the effect. So just add that moisturizer back in

If you're already moisturizing and still noticing the redness and tightness, you might want to add a nighttime hydrator.

We'd recommend these depending on your need:

Deep Hydration + Fine Lines - Blu Atlas Bio Retinol Recovery Stick

Hydration + Dullness = Heath Repair Serum

Hydration + Firming + Brightening = Comune Vita Boost Serum

Our #1 Nighttime Recommendation = Comune Revitalize Overnight Mask (they call it a mask, but it's really just a good moisturizer enriched with other ingredients to help with the overall look of your skin)

Your fall formula:

  • Cleanse gently. If your face feels squeaky, it’s stripped.

  • Hydrate daily. Lightweight in the AM, richer in the PM.

  • Protect always. UV and blue light are still quietly aging your skin.

The Takeaway

Fall is about recovery — for your skin, your schedule, and maybe even your mindset.
So take a minute to reset, refocus, and rebuild. Your skin (and your future self) will thank you.

Because good grooming isn’t complicated, it’s consistent.
