Reset Your Skin for the Season
As the seasons shift, so do the needs of your skin. Cooler months often bring dryness and sensitivity, while warmer weather can increase skin's natural oil production and lead to congestion. One of the most effective ways to support your skin through these transitions is with a seasonal facial treatment — especially one enriched with lipid-based skincare products.
Lipids, the natural fats found in your skin barrier, are essential for locking in hydration, protecting against environmental stressors, and maintaining a smooth, supple complexion. When the skin’s lipid balance is disrupted — whether by cold winds, indoor heating, or UV exposure — it can lead to dehydration, irritation, and a weakened barrier. Lipid-based products replenish what the skin naturally loses, helping restore balance and resilience.
We are excited to announce our partnership with Still Point Wellness, offering holistic facial treatments with our entire product line. Our plant-based formulations are pH balanced for optimal skin health, and naturally rich in lipids designed to protect, replenish, and restore your skin effectively. Paired with a seasonal holistic facial helps your skin adapt to the new season.
Benefits of a Seasonal Facial with Lipid-Based Skincare
1. Deep Hydration and Barrier Repair
Lipids are natural fat-like molecules that are essential to both skin health and overall bodily function. Found primarily in the outermost layer of the skin, lipids include ceramides, cholesterol, and free fatty acids which together form a protective matrix often described as the "mortar" holding the skin cell "bricks" together. This structure helps prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and shields the skin from environmental stressors like pollution, bacteria, and irritants.
Seasonal facial treatments infused with skin nourishing lipids like organic jojoba, sunflower, or rosehip seed oil deliver intense hydration, helping to strengthen the skin barrier and prevent transepidermal water loss. This is especially important during fall and winter, when the skin is most vulnerable to dryness.
2. Enhanced Absorption of Nutrients
Just as you swap your wardrobe with the weather, your skincare should adjust, too. A seasonal facial offers a chance to reset, gently exfoliating away buildup and replenishing skin with lipids that restore balance, no matter the climate shift.
By preparing the skin through exfoliation and gentle lymphatic massage, a facial allows lipid-based hydrators to absorb more effectively and protect skin with a barrier against essential moisture loss. This maximizes the delivery of antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and vitamins directly into the skin, amplifying results.
3. A Rejuvenating Ritual for Skin and Mind
Beyond the visible results, seasonal facials are a chance to pause, unwind, and reconnect with your skin. The ritual itself can help to refill your metaphorical tank, offering stress relief, which plays a powerful role in reducing inflammation and supporting overall skin health.
While facials give your skin a seasonal reset, continuing to use lipid-based skincare at home helps extend and maintain results. Lightweight lipid hydrators absorb beautifully into the skin to support the barrier, leaving it nourished without feeling heavy — the perfect balance for year-round care.
