6 SKIN PROBLEMS YOU MAY FACE THIS FALL
1. SKIN DAMAGE FROM SUN EXPOSURE AND AIR POLLUTION
If you’re still repairing all the sun damage your skin suffered from summer, sad to say, the cloudy days of fall can also cause sun damage.
UV rays, even on cloudy days, can bring as much damage as when skin is directly exposed to the sun. Do not ever think that you’re 100% safe from the sun’s harmful rays. Environmental pollutants can also cause a lot of skin damage without you knowing it!
Wear your sunscreen daily, especially on parts of the body that are regularly and heavily exposed to daylight.
Skincare Remedy:
Antioxidant serums are your best defense at repairing skin damage and combating the free radicals that harm our skin cells. The best antioxidant ingredient to look for is Vitamin C.
Vitamin C not only repairs damaged skin cells, but it protects the skin from harmful UV rays. It is also known for its brightening effects, Vitamin C has the ability to reduce dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
OUR PICK: VITAMIN C&E SERUM with Hyaluronic Acid ($15.95)

Stay lovely with Vitamin C! Our YEOUTH Vitamin C&E Serum enhances the appearance of skin tone and texture while deeply nourishing and quenching dry, thirsty skin. It’s made of medical grade Vitamin C to brighten and help fade the appearance of hyperpigmentation and dark spots, Vitamin E to help protect and defend the skin from future damage, and Hyaluronic Acid to deeply penetrate the skin to restore hydration and suppleness.
Other antioxidants to look for:
Vitamin C and E are usually formulated together in many skincare products because of their complementing effects with one another.

2. DRY AND DEHYDRATED SKIN
Dry and dehydrated skin during fall is caused by many factors. Colder temperatures and lower humidity levels basically deprive the skin of its natural moisture and hydration. Also, heating systems that produce dry indoor air, and taking long hot showers contributes to dry and irritated skin. Avoid staying under a hot shower for too long!
A lot of factors and activities strip skin of its moisture, that is why you need to be wary of the things that you do.
Use dehumidifiers infused with relaxing essential oils when inside to add moisture into the air. For a relaxing autumn feel inside your home, add 3 drops of Peppermint + 1 drop of Eucalyptus + 1 drop of Tea Tree + 2 drops of Rosemary from our Essential Oils to your humidifier.

3. CHICKEN SKIN / KERATOSIS PILARIS
Keratosis Pilaris becomes worse during colder seasons and has no known cures. The bumps that appear on the skin are caused by dead skin cells that block the hair follicles resulting in ingrown hair and clogged pores!
Skincare remedy:
Using moisturizers and exfoliating dead skin cells regularly, through chemical peels, are the best known treatments to soothe the irritation and prevent pore clogging.

To exfoliate: GLYCOLIC ACID 30% GEL PEEL with Retinol and Green Tea ($24.95)

4. ECZEMA
Eczema or atopic dermatitis tend to worsen in autumn. Eczema is red and itchy patches that appear on the skin but can be relieved with moisturizers. A study has shown that taking Vitamin D supplements reduces the signs of eczema when they flare up.
OUR PICK: Vitamin D3 Liquid ($34.94)
Make Vitamin D a staple in your daily life! Our YEOUTH Vitamin D3 Liquid helps support skin rejuvenation. Vitamin D helps repair skin damage and prevent infections, it can also relieve the symptoms of psoriasis, including itchy and flaky skin.
5. CHAPPED LIPS
Lips are prone to becoming dry because they don't contain sebaceous glands like other parts of the skin. Frequent exposure to the sun and low humidity in the air during colder months result in dry and chapped lips.
Lip balms and drinking lots of liquid helps prevent lip dryness and too much chapping.
Skincare remedy:
You can make a DIY lip balm using our Essential Lavender Oil. Just mix coconut oil, Lavender oil, and beeswax for an amazing healing balm for chapped lips!
6. SCALP AND HAIR PROBLEMS
Cooler weather makes hair dry and prone to breakage. It also makes the scalp more oily resulting in dandruff. Dandruff is actually a skin condition of an oily scalp. Flaky skin appears, and often accompanied by itchiness and discomfort. Other causes of dandruff are seborrheic dermatitis and sensitivity to certain hair products.
Studies have shown that Tea Tree Oil helps alleviate seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff. Also, use moisturizing shampoos and nourishing moisturizers to re-hydrate dry hair.
Take supplements that can enhance healthy hair growth and promote hair strength and elasticity.
Our YEOUTH REGENOTIN ADVANCED COLLAGEN GENERATOR is clinically proven to increase collagen levels and reduce wrinkle depth and skin roughness by 30%. Regenotin also promotes keratin and elastin formation—two major beauty proteins that assist in skin elasticity and hair growth.
