Autumn is right around the corner and if thought you could keep using the same skincare products you've been using since summer, you're sorely mistaken. As moisturise decreases and the temperature dips, autumn weather is colder and drier. Which is exactly why you need to prepare your skin for it. These 4 skincare picks can be exactly what you need to get your skin set for the season ahead.
1. Ease Up On Cleanser
Throughout summer you may have stuck to intense cleansing products to get the gunk and oil out but climatic conditions are different in autumn, which means not as much greasiness. A cleanser that's too harsh can strip the skin and leave it overly dry which is why you should move to a gentle gel-based formula. The Biotique Bio Honey Gel Cleanser is ideal as it is suitable for all skin types and costs Rs 149.

2. Hand It To Yourself
Don't forget that your hands need special care during the season. Especially if they are exposed to large amounts of soap, sun etc., they can dry faster. That's why you need a hand cream like the Himlaya Age Defying Hand Cream. It repairs and protects with ingredients like cocoa butter and costs Rs 150.

3. Make It A Good Night
If you've stuck religiously to serum on summer nights, it's time to change things up this season. A night cream has a thicker, creamier formula which is more nourishing to combat the chilly months ahead. The Plum Grape Seed And Sea Buckthorn Night Cream is ideal to moisturise the skin while you sleep and costs Rs 358 from Rs 550.

4. Pucker Up
Whatever you do, don't miss out on caring for your pout. It doesn't have glands of its own so it needs all the help it can get from you to stay nurtured during the cold, dry season. The Oriflame Protecting Balm is great to restore softness, has no added fragrance and costs Rs 199 from Rs 329.
Go on and get your skin ready for autumn.
