Your perfect autumn skincare routine: Exfoliation and boosters for radiant skin
Autumn is here, and that means it's time to give your skin some extra attention! While colder temperatures and dry air put a strain on your skin, autumn is the perfect season for exfoliation and targeted care with our active ingredient boosters. The skin's moisture levels drop, the skin barrier faces new challenges, and your skin may appear dull and lackluster. Now is the ideal time to adjust your skincare routine. Regular exfoliation helps to gently remove dead skin cells and makes the skin more receptive to further skincare steps and active ingredients. Our Renewing & Exfoliation BHA Booster is your best friend for the cooler days. In this article, you will learn how to gently resurface your skin and which boosters optimally complement your routine so that your skin remains healthy and radiant throughout the cold season.
Why is autumn the time for exfoliation?
In autumn, skin tends to look dull and dry because dead skin cells block the surface. This not only leads to a lackluster complexion but also prevents skincare products from reaching their full potential. That’s why autumn is exfoliation time! The BHA Booster gently dissolves these dead cells, clears clogged pores, and helps prevent breakouts, leaving the skin smoother and more radiant.
In the evening: Exfoliation with the BHA Booster
The Renewing & Exfoliating BHA Booster from Love it Pure is the perfect exfoliating partner for autumn. BHA (beta-hydroxy acid) penetrates deep into the pores, dissolves excess sebum, and removes dead skin cells. Furthermore, the BHA Booster is effective against impurities, calms inflammation, and stimulates cell renewal. The result is smooth, even, and radiant skin. Since the BHA Booster can make the skin more sensitive to UV rays, it should only be used in the evening. This optimally supports the skin’s nighttime regeneration processes and allows the booster to unfold its effects deep within the skin.
How often should you use the BHA Booster?
Usage recommendation for the BHA Booster:
- Oily or blemish-prone skin: 3-4 times per week to effectively treat clogged pores and impurities.
- Normal to combination skin: 2-3 times per week for gentle renewal and refined skin texture.
- Dry or sensitive skin: 1-2 times per week or apply locally to blemishes to avoid skin irritation.
For particularly sensitive or very dry skin, you can also apply the BHA Booster specifically to blemishes to tackle impurities gently and effectively without stressing the entire skin surface.
Always remember your finishing care!
Important: After every booster, including the BHA Booster (which is a leave-on exfoliant), you must always apply a finishing product! Active ingredient serums like our boosters are highly concentrated formulations that absorb quickly and act in a targeted manner. To retain moisture and the precious low-molecular active ingredients in the skin while protecting the barrier, it is necessary to apply a nourishing layer afterward, such as our Refreshing Face Fluid and the Day & Night Face Oil. These products seal in the active ingredients and act as a booster amplifier, optimizing the deep-acting effects of our highly concentrated formulas. Additionally, our 2-phase care provides reliable protection against moisture loss and external factors. This ensures the skin is optimally nourished and remains supple.
Your autumn routine:
In the evening: Exfoliation and regeneration
In the evening, the Renewing & Exfoliating BHA Booster perfectly prepares your skin for overnight regeneration. First, gently cleanse your skin with the Gentle & Calming Cleanser, then apply the Rose Toner and the BHA Booster, and finish with the Refreshing Face Fluid and the Day & Night Face Oil. This night-time routine ensures that the skin regenerates overnight and feels smooth, cleansed, and renewed.
In the morning: Booster for your skin condition
Depending on your skin's needs, you can choose between three different boosters in the morning:
- Barrier Booster – Protect and strengthen your skin barrier
Your must-have for winter with skin-identical ceramides, Cica, and Ectoin. For dry or sensitive skin, the Barrier Booster is ideal for strengthening the skin barrier and countering dryness. It soothes, strengthens, and protects stressed, irritated, rough, and dry skin. This booster is applied in the morning after cleansing to protect the skin from the challenges of the cold season. Combine it with the Refreshing Face Fluid and Day & Night Face Oil to lock in moisture and keep the skin supple.
- Vitamin C Booster – Anti-aging and radiant complexion
The Vitamin C Booster supports collagen production, gives your skin more elasticity, and helps reduce dark spots. In combination with the BHA Booster, it smooths fine lines and wrinkles and gives your skin a radiant, even appearance. Apply the Vitamin C Booster in the morning to nourish mature skin and protect it from oxidative stress. Finish the routine with the Refreshing Face Fluid and the Day & Night Face Oil.
- Anti-Redness Booster – Reduces redness and refines your skin
The Anti-Redness Booster is anti-inflammatory and refines the complexion with niacinamide. It balances the skin, reduces redness, and strengthens the skin structure – perfect for skin prone to couperose, rosacea, or impurities. Finish with the Refreshing Face Fluid and the Day & Night Face Oil to soothe and protect your skin throughout the day.
Finishing care: Locking in moisture and active ingredients for deep nourishment
After every booster application – regardless of whether it is morning or evening – it is important to provide the skin with a moisturizing finish. The Refreshing Face Fluid and the Day & Night Face Oil from Love it Pure form a dynamic 2-phase care routine that seals moisture into the skin and strengthens the skin barrier. This combination ensures your skin stays hydrated all day long and is optimally protected against external factors such as dry air and cold.
These active ingredients for the cold season:
In autumn and winter, the skin changes and requires particularly intensive care to withstand external factors like the cold, dry heating air, and changing temperatures. During this time, ingredients such as ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants play a crucial role in protecting the skin and providing it with moisture.
Ceramides, contained in the Barrier Booster from Love it Pure, strengthen the skin's protective barrier, prevent moisture loss, and offer protection against environmental influences. Especially in winter, when the skin is under great strain from cold and dry air, ceramides are essential for keeping the skin barrier intact. Hyaluronic acid, found in the Refreshing Face Fluid, supports the skin by providing deep hydration and counteracting dryness. Through its ability to bind large amounts of water, it ensures plump and supple skin. Vitamin C, as found in the Vitamin C Booster, offers antioxidant protection against free radicals caused by UV radiation and environmental influences. It also helps to repair damage and brighten the complexion, which is particularly important in winter, as skin can tend to look dull.
In addition to these well-known ingredients, there are other valuable active substances that are indispensable during the cold season:
- Ectoin, contained in the Barrier Booster, is a natural protective substance that shields the skin from harmful environmental influences. Ectoin has soothing and moisture-retaining properties, strengthens the skin barrier, and reduces irritation – ideal for sensitive and irritated skin that often feels tight in winter.
- Panthenol (provitamin B5), which is also contained in the Refreshing Face Fluid, soothes and regenerates dry and irritated skin. It promotes wound healing and supports the skin in retaining moisture, which is especially helpful for rough and cracked skin in winter.
- Niacinamide (vitamin B3), used in the Anti-Redness Booster from Love it Pure, reduces redness, strengthens the skin barrier, and helps retain moisture. It is a perfect active ingredient for the cold season, as it calms the skin and protects it against winter-related irritation.
- Squalane, contained in the Day & Night Face Oil, is a skin-identical lipid that softens the skin and protects it from moisture loss without leaving a greasy feeling. Squalane prevents the skin from drying out during the cold season and ensures suppleness.
Lipids and face oils play a particularly important role in autumn/winter, as they help protect the skin against transepidermal water loss. Due to lower temperatures, the skin produces fewer natural lipids, which can lead to dryness and a tight sensation. The Day & Night Face Oil from Love it Pure offers an ideal solution here. It locks in moisture, strengthens the natural skin barrier, and provides intensive care overnight. In combination with the Refreshing Face Fluid, it forms the perfect 2-phase care routine to optimally nourish the skin and keep it supple.
Summary: In autumn/winter, the skin requires a carefully selected routine that focuses on protecting and strengthening the skin barrier while providing sufficient moisture. With the highly effective products from Love it Pure, which are rich in ceramides, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and other valuable active ingredients like Ectoin, Panthenol, and Squalane, your skin will remain healthy, supple, and radiant even during the cold season. The Renewing & Exfoliating BHA Booster is the perfect partner for your evening exfoliating routine and optimally prepares your skin for your morning active-ingredient skincare.
