Transitioning your Skincare & Wellness Routine for Fall
Can you feel it? That cool breeze has finally rolled into Las Vegas, and we’re all breathing a sigh of relief as the desert heat takes a backseat. While the fall air brings us cozy vibes and a break from the scorching sun, it also comes with some unwelcome guests—like dry skin and, for many of us, seasonal depression. But don’t worry—I’ve got you covered on both fronts!
Let’s talk about how to transition your skincare and self-care routines for the season and keep those seasonal blues at bay:
1. Hydrate Like Your Glow Depends On It (Because It Does!)
With the desert air getting drier, your skin is thirstier than ever. Swap in a richer moisturizer, packed with ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ceramides, to keep your skin supple and radiant. And let’s not forget your body—drink plenty of water and maybe throw in a warm herbal tea to keep those fall feels going strong.

2. Soak Up the Sun (Before it Hides!)
Fall in Vegas means cooler days, but that doesn’t mean you can skimp on SPF. Protect your skin, especially since the sun’s still sneaky even when it feels cooler. Make sure to get outside during daylight hours to soak up some Vitamin D—your natural mood booster. If the sun’s playing hard to get, consider using a light therapy lamp to keep your spirits lifted.
3. Calming Skincare for the Soul
The cooler weather can be tough on sensitive skin. Incorporate calming ingredients like chamomile, aloe, and CBD to keep inflammation and redness at bay. Speaking of CBD, I’ve upgraded the Air of Earth Signature Facial to include CBD ingredients and tinctures for ultimate relaxation and to help your parasympathetic nervous system chill out. Because fall is for calming everything down, right?

4. Amp Up the Exfoliation (And Don’t Forget the Peels!)
Cooler temps slow down your skin’s natural exfoliation process, which can lead to a dull complexion. Gently exfoliate once a week to keep things fresh. Oh, and did I mention it’s still chemical peel season? You can get $100 off all peels through October—perfect for reviving your skin as the air cools down.
5. Move That Body
I get it—fall means cozy, and cozy means the couch looks extra tempting. But even a quick 10-minute workout, stretch session, or a little solo dance party can release those feel-good endorphins and shake off the seasonal blues. Just think of it as giving yourself a boost from the inside out—your body and skin will thank you.
6. Feed Your Skin (and Your Mind)
As you reach for your favorite fall comfort foods, don’t forget to balance it out with skin-loving nutrients. Healthy fats, leafy greens, and omega-3s will nourish your skin and your soul. While you’re at it, I’m loving CBD and GABA supplements for ultimate relaxation—especially when those darker days start creeping in.
7. Stay Connected
Don’t let the fall blues keep you isolated. Whether it’s grabbing a coffee with a friend or sending a funny meme, staying connected can lift your spirits and keep loneliness away. The key to glowing skin might just be the joy you share with others (plus a good laugh or two!).
8. Ground Yourself in the Season
Fall is about slowing down, so why not embrace it? Take this time to breathe, relax, and ground yourself with seasonal rituals. Light a candle, practice mindfulness, or take a moment to step outside and feel the cool breeze on your skin. Remember, grounding isn’t just for the mind—it’s for the skin and body too!
So, as the seasons change and the air cools, let’s make sure your glow stays bright and your spirit stays lifted. Whether it’s transitioning your skincare or tackling seasonal blues head-on, we’re in this together. Fall might try to bring the blues, but with these simple adjustments, you’ll feel radiant inside and out.
Until next time, stay cozy, stay glowing, and let’s ride out this seasonal shift with all the self-love we deserve.
With love and light,
