Listen to Your Skin

Your skin sends clear signals when seasons shift:

  • Tightness after cleansing
  • Increased sensitivity
  • More visible fine lines
  • Makeup not sitting quite right

These aren't just annoyances – they're your skin asking for help.

The Hidden Moisture Battle

Think of your skin's moisture like a cup of water outdoors:

In summer: The cup stays relatively full

In winter: The water evaporates faster

Your skin after 45 faces this same challenge, but with an added twist – its natural ability to retain moisture has decreased.

This makes seasonal transitions even more crucial.

Smart Switches for Seasonal Success

Instead of overhauling your entire routine, focus on strategic changes:

Morning Adjustments:

  • Summer cleanser
  • Creamy cleanser light moisturizer
  • Rich moisturizer regular SPF
  • SPF + extra moisture

Evening Updates:

  • Quick cleanse
  • Double cleanse light serum
  • 3% hyaluronic acid serum basic moisture
  • Layered hydration

The Power Player: Hydration

Here's where concentration matters.

While many products contain 1-2% hyaluronic acid, research shows that a 3% concentration provides superior hydration – exactly what your skin needs during seasonal changes.

Beyond Products: Environmental Support

Your skin doesn't just need different products; it needs different protection:

  • Run a humidifier while sleeping
  • Lower water temperature when cleansing
  • Protect skin from harsh winds
  • Allow extra time for products to absorb

Real Talk: What Actually Works

Rather than trying everything, focus on proven solutions:

  • Deep hydration with optimal concentrations
  • Barrier support
  • Consistent protection

The Derm™ Difference

Our 3% Hyaluronic Acid Serum bridges the gap between seasons. Its higher concentration provides the extra hydration your skin craves, while its quick-absorbing formula makes it perfect for layering as your routine adapts.

Your Action Plan

Morning:

  • Gentle cleanse
  • 3% HA serum on damp skin
  • Rich moisturizer
  • SPF protection

Evening:

  • Thorough cleanse
  • 3% HA serum
  • Nourishing night cream

Remember: Seasonal changes don't have to mean skin challenges.

With the right approach and products, your skin can stay radiant year-round.
