Here in Bend, Oregon, the leaves are just starting to turn, and our mornings are getting cold. It's beautiful, cozy, and I'm so ready for it. Cue the chill playlist to really soak in the vibes.

 With the changing season can come changes in our skin, too. You're skin will probably start to feel more dry, and now is the ideal time to add in more layering into your skincare routine. Below are my top product picks and the best way to use them.

• Double cleanse with our Coconut & Aloe Cleanser, and add in one pump of our Black Spruce Body Oil (mix them together with your fingertips). Use just a little bit of water in the cleansing process, and make sure to remove with a hot towel or esthetics sponge. I always treat the cleansing process as a treatment for the skin vs. stripping the skin or only trying to remove makeup/dirt/sunscreen. Both of these products work to leave your skin super soft and prepped for additional hydration.
• Work in a masking routine 1-2x per week with our Matcha Mask. Apply with a masking brush and leave it on for up to 5 minutes, then remove with a hot towel while it's still wet. My ritual for masking is drawing a bubble bath, lighting a candle, and putting the mask on right before I get in. It's a lovely little moment of self care. This mask will provide light exfoliation via pumpkin and papaya extracts, then provide deep hydration with our rich blend of botanical oils.
• Our Peptide Serum is the perfect serum for fall because it hydrates and plumps the skin. Use it both morning and night under your moisturizer.
• Layer our Prickly Pear Face Oil under any of our moisturizers, both morning and night. This will ensure ultimate hydration and glowing skin. If you have extra-dry skin, especially during this season, snag our Barrier Repair Cream; trust me, it's really that good.
• If you feel like your skin gets dull throughout the day, keep our Geranium & Rose Toner in your bag and mist your skin as needed. It's the perfect mid-day refresher.
• P.S. don't forget the hands! Our Sea Buckthorn Hand Cream provides the ultimate hand hydration without feeling too heavy or greasy.

I hope you guys have the best fall season. If you ever need assistance with your skincare routine, please reach out to us at: orders@berlinskin - we'd love to help!
