Autumn skincare regime

By Sarah Joan Ross on 2/9/2020

The temperature has dropped, the air is cooler, and the sun's strength is starting to wane, which means one thing: it's time to rethink your skincare regime.


There's a crackle in the air. Possibly due to wood burners being lit, together with a sense of the new, a back-to-school frisson, and a sense of fresh beginnings. And along with storing the swimming costume and de-fluffing the cashmere, your skincare regime needs an all-important switch-up too.


Post-summer damage can manifest itself with crepiness, roughness, dullness and pigmentation problems, where sunlight exposure has broken down the collagen in the skin. Luckily, residing in a country with such well-defined seasons means this is the perfect time to introduce a super-sloughing retinol at night and comforting creams that tackle the colder weather elements during the day.


Here's the beauty director's edit of the best autumn skincare to refresh and renew.

​Paula's Choice 1% Retinol, £53

​Paula's Choice 1% Retinol, £53

​Dr Barbara Sturm Face Cream Rich, £145

​Dr Barbara Sturm Face Cream Rich, £145
