Fall Skincare Reset: Supporting Your Skin (and Body) Through the Season Shift

As the air gets crisp and the leaves start to turn, our skin often reminds us that it’s time to shift gears. That dewy summer glow? It can quickly give way to dryness, dullness, breakouts, or flare-ups if we don’t adjust our routines. Fall is a season of transition - not just in nature, but in our bodies too. And it’s one of the most important times to support your skin both inside and out.

Let’s talk about how to gently transition your skincare and wellness routine this season, with real-life tips that are rooted in slow beauty, clinical insight and a little Wild Capri experience.


1. Start With a Gentle Oil Cleanse

Fall skin needs nourishment - not barrier stripping soaps. Our Botanical Oil Cleanser was designed to nourish, balance, cleanse, decongest pores and keep the delicate microbiome of your skin intact. 

Fall and winter can leave skin more prone to tightness, inflammation, or even congestion from cooler air and warmer showers.

Oil Cleansing:

  • Melts away dirt and makeup without disrupting the skin barrier

  • Supports oil balance for both dry and acne-prone skin

  • Contains anti-inflammatory herbs and non-comedogenic oils

Pro tip: Oil cleansing is especially helpful during seasonal transitions when your skin and body is more reactive. Try a slow, intentional massage for 1–2 minutes to support lymphatic flow and tension release.


2. Strengthen Your Moisture Barrier with Herbal Tallow & Oats

Cold air + indoor heat = the fastest way to a compromised skin barrier. Our Tallow & Oat Lotions are rich in barrier-building ingredients that nourish and replenish without the heaviness or greasiness of traditional creams.

  • Tallow mimics the skin’s natural oils, delivering bioavailable vitamins A, D, E, K

  • Colloidal oats soothe inflammation and dryness

  • Herbal infusions support healing and hydration on a cellular level

Choose your fall favorite: October (seasonal, vanilla pumpkin), Canyon (cedarwood + bergamot), Sage & Citrus (lemon & rosemary), Sunkissed Coconut or Vanilla Sugar 

 

3. Soothe & Restore with Nectar Balm

Think of Nectar Repair Balm as your fall emergency skin balm. Whether it’s wind-chapped cheeks, dry patches, or skin flare-ups, this concentrated herbal balm helps calm and restore stressed skin.

  • Great for around the nose, lips, hands/knuckles and cuticles, cracked heels, or any area that needs TLC

  • Infused with soothing Plantain, Yarrow & Comfrey to speed the natural healing process

  • Creates a breathable protective layer to lock in moisture

Use it nightly on hands, cheeks, heels or as a spot treatment for dry, irritated areas.


4. Support Skin from the Inside Out (Yes, That Includes Gut Health)

Seasonal changes (plus stress, sugar, and the holiday shuffle) can show up on your skin long before you notice it in your digestion.

Our Gut Feelings Tea is a gentle, soothing and protective herbal blend formulated to:

  • Reduce bloat and gas

  • Support liver, bile and digestive function

  • Calm inflammation that often shows up in the gut and on the skin

Brew morning or evening - we recommend one cup per day, especially during sugar season, to keep your system moving and skin glowing.


5. Nourish Instead of Strip: Keep Your Routine Simple

Fall is a good time to resist the temptation to over-exfoliate or overhaul everything. Instead, focus on:

  • Adding hydration and layering moisture - think serum then moisturizer, or body oil then lotion as needed.

  • Keeping a gentle cleanse-moisturize-protect cycle

  • Letting your skin recover from summer and prep for winter

Optional add-ons:

For the face: Use our Hydra Bloom Botanical Mask 1x/week, followed with Advanced Antioxidant Serum and/or Aura Beauty Whip for the face.

For body care: Use a moisturizing soap like our Wanderlust or Milk & Honey goatmilk soaps, then layer with Blue Tansy Body Oil or any Tallow & Oat Lotion and Nectar Repair Balm on your hands and heels for full-body support.



Final Thought: Give Yourself Permission to Slow Down

Your skin mirrors your nervous system. When you slow down, even for 5 minutes with tea, a warm oil cleanse, or a hand massage, you will feel the difference. These small moments of rest will compound and it’ll show on the outside too.

This fall, think of skincare as a rhythm. One that grounds you, allows you to exhale, supports your body and makes space for rest.
