The best way to remember to schedule a fall facial is to imagine the dry, falling leaves that drift to the ground in the autumn. Remember how they crunch when you jump in them or walk through them? Is your skin as dry as those dead, lifeless leaves?
The changing colors of the leaves are your sign that it is time to remove dry dead skin, de-stress and get skin ready for the busy, but joyous holiday season.
Some facials are a no-go in the summer because they can make skin especially sensitive to harmful UV rays. There is a risk that sun exposure on freshly lasered or chemically peeled skin can cause pigment damage, increased inflammation and additional complications. But come fall, the skin is ready for a good peel and some hydration.
Gentle exfoliation in the form of a peel encourages faster cell turnover, which gently breaks down the glue that holds dead skin right where you don’t want it.
The Yam & Pumpkin Pro Enzyme Peel 20% leans right into the fall theme. Yam pulp purée — which is high in beta carotene and vitamins to fight the signs of aging — plays well with its fall counterpart, pumpkin — which is rich in smoothing enzymes, amino acids and antioxidants. With additional exfoliating power from glycolic acid, lactic acid and enzymes from papaya and pineapples, this peel is a powerhouse that can reduce the appearance of dark spots, fine lines and sun damage — leaving skin looking firm and radiant.
Exfoliation is the key to glowing skin. As we age, our natural ability to regenerate new skin cells slows. This can cause surface build-up which can leave our skin looking congested, dry and dull.
The exfoliation process with the Yam & Pumpkin Pro Enzyme Peel 20% removes dead skin cells, reduces the appearance of pigmentation, fine lines and sun damage. And whether you suffer from acne or have once suffered from acne, you can also benefit from using this organic face peel. This delicious purée of yam and pumpkin leaves skin looking firm and radiant.
Autumn brings on cool, windy weather which can cause your skin to become dry and dehydrated. The fall season is the perfect time to correct any sun damage caused by summer heat and sunshine. We conclude our Yam & Pumpkin Peel facial with Pumpkin Latte Hydration masque and a heavier moisturizer that works best for your skin type.
