As summer fades into autumn, the skin barrier faces unique seasonal stressors:

• Lower humidity & cooler air → increased TEWL (transepidermal water loss) and hydration loss.

• Wind & fluctuating temperatures → micro-inflammation and barrier disruption.

• Indoor heating → oxidative stress, dryness, and sensitivity.

This “perfect storm” often results in tightness, redness, and barrier fatigue, making autumn a critical season for preventive skincare.
