Fall Skincare Tips & Tricks

September 12, 2017

Our favorite season has officially come to an end, and while we may still be lusting after long beach days and late night pool hangs, we can’t help but feel a little excited for the fall days ahead. Sweater weather and colorful leaves aside, now that you’re back in the swing of work and school routines, chances are you’re feeling a bit stressed. We’re talking packed calendars, coffee dates, early morning workouts, and late library nights… While we know you’ve got your game face on, sometimes skin has its own agenda.

Here are 6 tips to get you ready for the fall season ahead:

Tip 1: Salicylic Acid is your BFF. Scrub, buff, and deep clean.

Our #1 love is the Acnedote™ Face & Body Scrub. Made with 100% vegetarian ingredients and zero plastic microbeads, this dual-action scrub is gentle enough for your face but can also kick backne to the curb. Plant-derived Salicylic Acid works to break down barriers within the skin’s layers, helping to relieve pores of any potential clogging1. Ground Walnut Shell gently buffs away oil, dirt, and dead skin cells for an extra smooth, extra glowy complexion.

Tip 2: Extend your glow without any added oil.

Be sure to follow up with the Acnedote™ Oil Control Lotion. This lightweight, oil-free formula is dermatologist tested and non-comedogenic, meaning it takes care of hydrating your skin without clogging any pores or contributing to any unwanted shine. Think that’s all? This lotion also combats skincare woes around the clock with a dose of Salicylic Acid and Willow Bark Extract.

Tip 3: Superhero Skincare. To the rescue with this tiny tube!

If you’re in a serious pinch with a pesky pimple looming large, look no further than our Acnedote™ Invisible Treatment Gel. The treatment gel delivers reduced inflammation and clearer skin within just 4 hours. We like to keep this guy in our bathroom and our bag at all times.

Tip 4: Keep skin in check with Acnedote™.

We <3 Alba Botanica® Acnedote™ for its gentle yet effective, clinically proven zit-zapping powers. The entire collection features 6 unique products for any acne situation with botanically derived ingredients that help banish breakouts with continued use. Just in time for the back to school season! Pick up a few, or the entire line.

Tip 5: Stock up and stash these little treatments 

Have you heard of our Fast Fix™ Treatments? These powerful little remedies are delightfully portable and perfect for tucking in your bag for the moments you need them most. Colorful and cute to boot, these little tools go to work combatting everything from under eye circlespuffy eyesa zit that needs a bit of coverage, and a pout that could use a plump.

Tip 6: Turn your bathroom into a mini summer vacay 

But! If you still wish you were back on a beach, we hear ya. While we can’t offer sand and sunshine, we can give you the next best thing. Take your showers tropical with our NEW Coconut Rescue Very Emollient Bath & Shower Gel. From fruit to bottle, we used Unrefined Virgin Coconut Oil and Coconut Milk to make each lather deliciously moisturizing and extra nourishing. Did you know the high-fat content in coconut helps to lock in skin’s moisture?2 Indulge in our Coconut Rescue Very Emollient Body Lotion post-shower for skin that feels next-level smooth.
