Summer, for all its fabulousness and fun times, can take a toll on the skin. Whether it’s too much sun, being lax with skincare while on holiday or, er, excessive rosé consumption, our skin can be a little worse for wear at this time of year.
However, no need to panic – you don’t need to overhaul your entire routine or splurge on a whole new routine from a dozen different places. Head straight to Boots, the UK’s go-to destination for an autumn skin reset; everything is under one roof.
But what exactly might you need? Well, your skin barrier might be delicate, to say the least, while simultaneously feeling dull, thanks to the excessive UV we had this summer, combined with air con, chlorine, seawater, sweat build-up, SPF and makeup. Parched, dull, and not-so-glowy complexion? Yup, us too.
Time and invest in a transformative exfoliant, a rejuvenating serum, a replenishing moisturiser, plus well-formulated supplements to support your skin from the inside.
And Boots has it all. From cult skincare staples to timeless classics and the latest viral TikTok finds, it is the place on the high street that does everything.
If your skin is crying out for some post-summer TLC, and you want to make some simple investments for autumn, here’s exactly what we recommend to get ahead of the change in season for your autumn skincare reset.
