What to do about dry, peeling skin in autumn

Dry, peeling skin is common during autumn and can be managed using the following methods. Skincare should be prioritized: choose highly moisturizing facial cleansers, reduce cleansing frequency, and avoid over-cleansing, which can strip the skin of its natural moisture. After washing your face, promptly apply toner, serum, and moisturizer; for added hydration, use a moisturizer rich in oil-based ingredients such as squalane or petroleum jelly. Hydrating face masks can quickly replenish moisture and are recommended 2–3 times per week. Drink plenty of water daily and consume fruits high in water content and vitamins, such as pears and grapes.

Use a humidifier indoors to increase air humidity and reduce skin moisture loss. Also, remember to protect your skin from sun exposure, as UV radiation remains strong in autumn and can damage the skin. If dry, peeling skin persists despite these measures, seek medical advice promptly.
