The shift to fall can introduce dry sensitive skin due to the drop in temperature and humidity.These conditions can increase dehydration and irritation which can worsen pre-existing/induce new conditions like eczema and psoriasis.
In short, low humidity, dry indoor heating, and aggressive winds can compromise our primary skin barrier leading to maladies such as flakiness, itchiness, and dry cracked skin/lips.
To nurture your skin from the inside out during the fall, focus on a diet loaded with seasonal fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Hydration is the key to skin elasticity especially in the cooler drier months. Stay hydrated by consuming fruits and vegetables high in water content such as citrus fruit and dark leafy greens. Chamomile, ginger, and rooibos teas are loaded with antioxidants necessary for glowing skin. In addition to antioxidants, including foods rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, healthy fats, and zinc are great building blocks to skin preservation.
