4 Autumn Skincare Tips to Nourish Dry Sensitive Skin
A drop in humidity usually marks the arrival of autumn, and that’s when you start noticing water loss and dehydration in your epidermis. Dryness can lead to itching, redness and other signs of irritation.
This is why calming care and moisturization should be your skincare focus this autumn.
Autumn Skincare Tip #1. Gentle Cleansing
The (slightly) cooler temperatures and lower humidity often means less oily skin, so you can put away your strong summer cleansers to avoid over-cleansing and stripping your skin of essential oils, as this can damage your skin’s natural protective barrier. Amino acid cleansers are a good call when it comes to gentle cleansers – lather the cleanser into a rich foam in your hands before applying it on your face to reduce friction and minimize damage.
This mild enzymatic cleanser minimizes irritation by cleansing with Papain Enzyme, rather than chemical or physical exfoliators that can potentially irritate the skin, while moisturizing with multiple layers of ceramides and hyaluronic acids.
Infused with 33% houttuynia cordata (heartleaf) extract, this deep cleanser lathers into a foam that removes impurities and dead skin cells clogged in pores. Also controls excess sebum and keeps oily skin fresh and clean with the patented ingredient "Anti-Sebum P" – perfect for oily and combo skin.
A skin-friendly mildly acidic foam cleanser that lathers into a rich, soft foam effortlessly. Delivers a hydrating, non-stripping cleanse with mineral-rich deep sea water from Ulleungdo in Korea as well as Triple Hyaluronic Acid.
A moisturizing and smoothing cleanser formulated with plant-based mucin extracted from yam roots and vegan milk, which keeps the skin smooth and forms a protective moisture barrier on its surface. Imbued with purely plant-derived Vegan Milk Complex to leave skin soft and moisturized, as if after skincare.
What is ginger water? Compared to regular purified water commonly used in cosmetics, ginger water has extra anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. This vegan cleanser contains 31.7% patented ginger water as well as 8 kinds of natural extracts and 5 types of hyaluronic acid to cleanse and hydrate all at once. It also soothes irritation and improves sensitive skin.
Autumn Skincare Tip #2. Amp Up Your Moisturizers
Our skin may find refreshing summer moisturizers lacking in the dry autumn weather, so it’s time to change up your skincare collection for something more hydrating just as you swap T-shirts for hoodies. Look out for ingredients that rehydrate and lock moisture in, including Vitamin B5 (panthenol), glycerin, and hyaluronic acid.
A lightweight yet high-concentration serum of 3% hyaluronic acid. Delivers deep hydration and strengthens your skin’s natural barrier against external stressors while relieving dryness.
This serum from the TikTok-favourite brand ROUND LAB hydrates in three effective steps: it opens up the moisture pathway in your skin with Glyceryl Glucoside, boosts moisture retention with Birch Sap, and forms a moisture barrier with Vita Hyaluronic Acid to seal moisture in.
Delivers fundamental calming and moisturizing care with low-molecular panthenol, 10-layer hyaluronic acid, and allantoin, filling your natural barrier with hydration for plump, dewy skin.
Autumn Moisturizer Recommendation: ISNTREE Ultra-Low Molecular Hyaluronic Acid Serum
Light in texture but lasting in hydration, this low-molecular hyaluronic acid serum is enriched with 14 kinds of hyaluronic acid to keep skin moisturized for extended periods of time – proven to maintain 101.81% moisture in the skin for 24 hours!
This water essence contains 8 forms of water-binding hyaluronic acid with low, medium, and high weighted molecules for effective deep hydration. Rich in linolenic acid, Opuntia Ficus-Indica Seed Oil in the formula also helps to regulate the skin’s water and oil balance.
Autumn Skincare Tip #3. Sheet Masks!
During autumn, it’s a good idea to use a sheet mask at least once every week to enhance the moisture content of your skin, as sheet masks can help instill nutrients and hydration to improve your skin’s health and appearance.

Autumn Skincare Tip #4. Sun Care is Always Essential
