Just as the seasons shift, your skin’s needs shift too. Our skin is deeply connected to the rhythms of nature — humidity, temperature, wind, and sun exposure all play a role in how it looks and feels. That’s why seasonal skincare is such an important part of keeping your skin balanced, healthy, and comfortable all year long. 🌿
Spring & Summer: Light and Balancing
When warmer weather rolls in, the air holds more humidity and our skin tends to produce more oil. Add in the sun’s stronger rays, and your skin needs lighter, breathable support.
In spring and summer, look for skincare that:
-
Provides gentle hydration without heaviness.
-
Helps clarify and balance oil production.
-
Soothes skin after sun exposure.
Lighter botanical infusions — like calendula, lemon balm, and peppermint — feel refreshing and keep the skin comfortable without clogging pores.
Fall & Winter: Moisture and Protection
As temperatures drop, the air gets drier and indoor heaters pull even more moisture from your skin. That’s when dryness, flakiness, or dullness often appear.
During fall and winter, your skin thrives with:
-
Deeper hydration from plant oils and butters.
-
Protective botanicals that help lock in moisture.
-
Antioxidant-rich herbs to fight seasonal dullness.
One of my favorite winter ingredients is pine needles. They’re rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants, helping to brighten skin and protect against environmental stress. Their fresh, grounding scent also brings the forest indoors — a little daily ritual of comfort and clarity during the colder months.
Why Seasonal Skincare Works
Think of seasonal skincare like eating seasonally. Just as your body craves warming soups in the winter and lighter salads in the summer, your skin has different needs throughout the year. By paying attention to those natural shifts, you can prevent dryness, irritation, or breakouts and instead give your skin exactly what it’s asking for.
At Lulu’s Herbary, seasonal skincare is at the heart of everything I make. Each collection is infused with herbs and botanicals that reflect the season — for example, my upcoming winter launch features a pine needle-infused soap and serum crafted specifically for colder weather.
A Sneak Peek Ahead
Right now, I’m in the process of rebranding from Cake Face Soaping to Lulu’s Herbary, where seasonal skincare will be front and center. While I prepare for the winter launch, you can still stock up on your favorite Cake Face soaps before they’re gone for good.
