It’s always magical when the air becomes crisp, the leaves begin to yellow, and you spend your days sipping hot apple cider at a pumpkin patch. Well, magical until your skin gets flaky and feels like it’s about to shrivel up. Here are 5 tips to beat fall skin so you can enjoy those autumn nights the way you should.

1. Try a thicker moisturizer

Most of us tend to use lightweight, oil-free moisturizers during the summertime. It’s important to trade the gel formula in for something a little thicker, like a cream. Try something with hyaluronic acid that will restore moisture to the skin. The Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Cream will leave your skin with a burst of hydration.

2. Use a facial mist

A facial mist isn’t just for mid-July when your makeup is melting off your face due to the humidity. Using a facial mist during the chilly months will put moisture back into dry skin and give your skin the glow it’s missing. Try Mario Badescu’s Facial Spray With Aloe, Herbs And Rosewater to hydrate skin and reduce redness.

3. Drink Hot Lemon Water

I know, it sounds gross. But drinking hot lemon water has a multitude of benefits. Not only does it give you radiant skin but it also aids in digestion and detoxification, boosts your metabolism,  and increases your energy. Drinking a cup a day before breakfast will hydrate your skin and leave you ready to tackle whatever the day brings.
