As the leaves change and the air becomes crisper in autumn, so should your skincare routine. Transitioning to an autumn skincare routine is critical for adapting to shifting weather conditions. Additionally, the festive time calls for exorbitant travels, attending events and parties thus applying a lot of makeup during this time may lead to several skin issues.

Ingredients That Will Help To Keep Your Skin Healthy And Beautiful 

Rajat Mathur, who is the DGM, Learning Academy, at The Body Shop India shared some components to look for in your skincare products to maintain your skin healthy and beautiful this season:

• Hyaluronic Acid: The reduced humidity levels in Autumn can cause dry skin. Hyaluronic acid is a hydration powerhouse, capable of holding up to 1,000 times its weight in water and keeping your skin plump and moisturized.
• Vitamin C: Vitamin C is crucial for combating the impacts of summer sun damage and preparing your skin for the harsher winter ahead. It brightens the complexion, lightens dark spots, and increases collagen synthesis.
• Shea Butter: For intense hydration and protection against wind and cold, shea butter is a fantastic natural choice. It hydrates and nourishes dry skin.
• Oatmeal: Perfect for sensitive skin, oatmeal calms irritation and redness. It's an excellent choice for soothing any skin issues that may arise during autumn.
• Antioxidants: Look for ingredients like green tea, grape seed extract, or resveratrol to protect your skin from free radical damage caused by environmental factors.
• Aloe Vera: If you get sunburned during the summer, aloe vera can help heal and soothe your skin while providing gentle hydration.

Ayurvedic Wonders That Keep Skin Hydrated:

Shreedha Singh, who is the CEO and Co-founder of T.A.C – The Ayurveda Company said, "Ayurvedic wonders like Kumkumadi, Nalpamaradi, Curcumin, Bakuchiol, and Ubtan help in bringing out the natural radiance of the skin, leaving it replenished and hydrated."

• Kumkumadi oil is a treasure for skin, it is infused with saffron and 26 potent herbs. It brightens the complexion, evens out skin tone, and reduces blemishes, imparting a natural radiance.
• Nalpamaradi oil, known for its exceptional tan-removing properties and its ability to enhance skin texture, works harmoniously with other Ayurvedic treasures for a luminous and rejuvenated complexion for the festive season.
• Infused with powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, Curcumin, also known as Turmeric, not only aids in reducing acne and soothing irritated skin but also contributes to a radiant, even skin tone.
• Bakuchiol, a natural alternative to retinol, actively stimulates collagen production, effectively reducing fine lines and wrinkles. This results in smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
• The Ayurvedic exfoliant, Ubtan, with its blend of turmeric, chickpea flour, and sandalwood, cleanses and exfoliates, ultimately enhancing the skin's natural glow.

Superfoods That Will Help With Your Skincare Regimen:

Dolly Kumar, who is a Cosmetic Engineer & Founder at Skinella said, "During the autumn, your skin requires extra hydration. Regardless of whether you have sensitive, dry, oily, or combination skin, you must add a layer of deep nourishment during the transitional season."

Here are a few superfoods that will help you reset your skincare regimen:

• Avocado: Rich in healthy fats and vitamins E and C, avocado is a fantastic ingredient to use in a face mask. Mash ripe avocado and apply it as a nourishing face mask to replenish dry skin once a week.
• Honey: Honey naturally acts as an antioxidant and humectant. You can create a moisturizing mask by mixing honey with a small amount of yogurt. Allow it to sit on your skin for 15 to 20 minutes before rinsing it off.

Thus by incorporating these into your skincare routine, you can achieve that glowing skin which you alwasy desire and ace you look this festive season.
