Once the Front Range leaves turn and the air gets crisp, your skin notices. Cooler temperatures, low humidity, and indoor heating can leave skin dry and dull, and summer sun damage often starts to show once your tan fades.
November is the sweet spot to reset your skin before the holidays arrive. Here’s where to start.
Why fall is a great time to focus on your skin
Summer’s effects show up now. Sunspots, uneven tone, and texture changes become more visible as your tan fades.
Colorado’s dry air kicks in. Low humidity weakens your skin barrier, causing tightness and flaking.
Less sun exposure. Many people prefer to schedule laser and skin treatments in the cooler months, when they’re outside less and can be careful with sun protection while skin heals.
Timing. Starting in early November gives you time to see results before holiday parties, family photos, and travel.
4 easy habits for fall in Northern Colorado
Swap to a gentler cleanser as the air gets drier.
Add a hydrating serum under your moisturizer.
Keep wearing SPF daily. Altitude and snow glare mean UV doesn’t take a season off.
Go easy on harsh exfoliants once your skin starts feeling sensitive.
