Your Skin Called: It Wants a Fall Reset
Your skin has survived sunscreen, sweat, humidity, air conditioning, pool days, late nights and approximately 47 products you bought because TikTok told you that you needed them.
Honestly? She deserves a break. 😂
Fall is the perfect time to check in with your skin and create a skincare routine that actually makes sense for your skin, not whatever product happens to be trending this week.
At Finesse Spa Salon in Ames, Iowa, our estheticians use Bioelements professional skincare to create customized facial experiences based on what your skin needs when you walk through the door.
The Best Facial Isn't the Same for Everyone
If you've ever asked, “What's the best facial for my skin?” the answer is:
It depends.
Dry skin, acne-prone skin, sensitive skin, dehydration, redness, dullness and visible signs of aging all need different approaches.
That's why a customized facial is so much more helpful than choosing a treatment simply because it sounds fancy.
Sensitive Skin? Let's Not Play Games.
If your skin is easily irritated, red, tight, itchy or reactive, your goal shouldn't be to throw every exfoliating product known to mankind at it.
Bioelements emphasizes supporting the skin barrier and choosing ingredients appropriate for sensitive skin. Their sensitive-skin collection includes ingredients such as hemp seed oil, bakuchiol and barrier-supporting hydrators.
Your esthetician can help determine what your skin actually needs and what it would be better to skip.
Sometimes the best skincare advice is: Don't do that. 😉
Dehydrated Skin
Fall and winter weather can leave skin feeling tight and dry — and sometimes your skin can be dehydrated even if you're not technically “dry.”
A customized facial can help replenish hydration and leave your skin looking smoother, softer and more refreshed.
And no, drinking approximately one gallon of water at 9 p.m. does not count as a skincare routine.
Want to Address Fine Lines?
Fall is also a great time to get more intentional about preventative and corrective skincare.
Your esthetician can help you create a home-care routine that supports concerns such as:
Fine lines and wrinkles
Loss of firmness
Uneven texture
Dullness
Dehydration
Sun damage
Dark spots
The goal isn't to make you look like someone else.
It's to help your skin look like your skin on a really, really good day.
Your Fall Skincare Homework
Before your next facial, make a mental list:
What do I love about my skin?
What is bothering me?
What have I tried?
What products am I currently using?
That information helps your esthetician personalize your treatment and home-care recommendations.
And if you have sensitive skin, definitely tell us. We would much rather customize your treatment than take a gamble.
