Is your epidermis showing?
Don't worry, it should be. Your epidermis is the top part of your skin, the body's largest and fastest growing organ. Unfortunately showing all that skin and soaking up sunshine while outside on the river, hiking, or spending time at the pool damages our skin and shows in our complexion in the fall and winter months. Autumn is a time of transition, and a great time to prepare your body for winter and take care of our largest organ.
Here are a couple fall tips that the Spa Moab team has put together for you.
Tip 1: Exfoliate
Exfoliation is KEY to bringing back your skin to a healthy glow. For your face, Spa Moab recommends receiving one of their seasonal Enzyme Peels. Spa Moab stocks numerous exfoliation products to add into your weekly skincare routine. For the body, try dry brushing before a shower or use a high performance body exfoliator that buffs and adds moisture back in with an oil base.
Tip 2: Massage
The kids are back in school and the germs are running wild.
Clinical studies have indicated that regular massage can naturally increase the immune system's cytotoxic capacity (the activity level of the body's natural "killer cells") and decrease the number of T-cells, which improves the body's immune functioning overall.
Tip 3: Moisturize
As the weather cools, the skin will need more hydration. Make sure you also use a good night repair product to heal and hydrate while sleeping. You might need to switch to an even heavier product as the weather gets cooler.
Tip 4: Foot Love
Transitioning from flip flops to cute boots and warm socks doesn't mean it's time to neglect your feet and toes. Pedicures are not just to provide you with beautifully shaped and painted toenails, but also to maintain the overall health of your feet.
Tip 5: Eye Repair
The summer can do serious damage to the thinner, more sensitive skin around the eyes. As the weather gets cooler, these lines can be more apparent. Use a good eye product twice a day: A product that allows for cellular repair is key to changing the delicate tissue around the eyes.
Tip 6: Replenish
Stay hydrated internally. Drink more water this fall and brew your favorite herbal teas. Your body and skin will thank you!
