As the leaves change and the air gets cooler, our skin starts to feel the shift, too. The crisp fall weather is beautiful — but it can also bring dryness, dullness, and that tight “my skin needs a drink” feeling. This is the perfect time to refresh your skincare routine and give your skin the moisture, nourishment, and renewal it craves.
At Meg Fox Aesthetics, we believe in working with your skin’s seasonal rhythms — not against them. Here’s how to update your fall skincare lineup for a healthy, hydrated glow all season long.
1. Start Fresh with an Oil-Based Cleanser
When temperatures drop, it’s time to ditch harsh foaming cleansers that can strip your barrier. Instead, try the Epicutis Cleansing Set — which includes their luxurious, oil-based cleanser and the Enzyme Exfoliating Powder. Rather than using microbeads or acids, the exfoliator harnesses the activity of natural enzymes to help gently break down dead skin cells and excess oils to boost turnover.
It’s a game-changer for drier skin types (or anyone feeling that fall tightness), leaving your face clean but never squeaky. Think soft, hydrated, and balanced — exactly what your skin needs this time of year.
2. Feed Your Skin with a Powerful Serum
Serums are like your skin’s daily multivitamin — and in fall, we’re reaching for TNS Advanced+ Serum by SkinMedica. It’s clinically proven to improve tone, texture, and firmness with growth factors and peptides that help your skin act younger, longer.
Use it morning and night for that “lit-from-within” look, even when the weather is doing its best to dull your glow.
3. Support Renewal with Retinol
Cooler months are the perfect time to reintroduce or increase retinol — and Hydrinity Retaxome is our go-to. It combines retinol with reparative peptides, so you get all the skin-smoothing, collagen-boosting benefits without the usual dryness or flaking.
Apply it at night, followed by a nourishing cream, to help your skin renew itself while you sleep.
4. Seal It All In with a Rich Night Cream
Cooler, drier air can deplete your moisture barrier overnight, so finishing your routine with a heavier cream is essential. We love the SkinMedica Dermal Repair Cream — deeply hydrating without feeling greasy.
It helps lock in everything you’ve layered underneath (like your TNS serum and Retaxome) and leaves your skin soft, plump, and ready to face chilly mornings.
Your Fall Skin Care Takeaway
As the season changes, think of your skincare routine as self-care — a small, daily ritual to restore your skin’s glow and resilience. Fall is also an ideal time to schedule your in-office treatments like MOXI, BBL, or DiamondGlow to complement your at-home routine and jumpstart your skin’s renewal before the holidays.
