Fall, Finally!!

There’s something about that first real hint of fall.

The mornings get a little cooler. The air feels different. You start reaching for sweaters you forgot you had, making plans for cozy dinners, and maybe craving all the things that somehow taste better this time of year.

Soothe Me Baby Whipped Shea Butter

After a long, hot summer, I’m always ready for it.

Fall is also a good reminder to give your skin a little extra attention. Cooler air can leave skin feeling dry, tight, or just a little less happy than it did a few months ago.

So here are a few simple ways I like to welcome the season.

Give your skin a little extra moisture

As the weather changes, your skin may need a little more than it did during the summer.

Try applying your body butter or moisturizer while your skin is still slightly damp after a shower. It helps seal in that moisture and leaves your skin feeling soft without having to do anything complicated.

And don’t forget your hands, elbows, knees and feet. They tend to be the first places to let you know the weather has changed.

Make time for a warm shower

Not everything has to be productive.

Take a little longer in the shower. Put on some music. Light a candle. Let yourself enjoy the fact that you have nowhere else to be for the next fifteen minutes.

Sometimes that’s enough.

Try a little at-home face mask

If your skin is feeling a little dull or dry, here’s an easy kitchen-friendly option:

Honey + Yogurt Face Mask

• 1 tablespoon plain yogurt
• 1 teaspoon honey

Mix together and apply a thin layer to clean skin. Leave on for about 10 minutes, then rinse gently with lukewarm water and follow with your usual moisturizer.

Simple. No complicated ingredient list required.

As always, patch test anything new on your skin first, especially if you have sensitive skin.

And now for my favorite part…

Caramel Apple Pie is back.

Some scents just belong to a particular time of year.

Sweet, Decadent Caramel Apple Pie Sugar Scrub

Caramel Apple Pie is warm, sweet and nostalgic in that very specific way that makes you think of crisp afternoons, something baking in the kitchen and coming home to somewhere familiar.

It was a favorite for a reason.

And after being away for a while, I decided it was time to bring it back.

So if you’ve been waiting for it, she’s here.

Caramel Apple Pie is officially available again at RaJean Beauty.

Fall feels a little better already.

Welcome back, chilly mornings. We’re ready for you.
