Japanese Skincare Routine for a Radiant Glow This Fall: Key Ingredients to Embrace

Routine Japonaise pour un Joli Glow à la Rentrée : Les Actifs à Adopter

As the summer ends and September approaches, your skin needs special care to restore its natural glow. The Japanese skincare routine, known for its holistic and minimalist approach, focuses on targeted ingredients that help to restore, hydrate, and protect your skin. Here are the essential steps and key ingredients to achieve a radiant complexion this fall.


Anti-Pigmentation: Brighten and Even Out Skin Tone

Sun exposure can often lead to hyperpigmentation or an uneven complexion. Two star ingredients stand out to correct these imperfections: Vitamin C and Niacinamide.

  • Vitamin C : A powerful antioxidant that helps brighten the skin, even out pigmentation, and protect against free radicals. This essential nutrient also boosts collagen production, improving skin elasticity. Apply a vitamin C serum in the morning before your moisturizer and sunscreen.
  • Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) : This multifunctional ingredient helps regulate sebum production, reduce redness, and improve the appearance of pores. It also strengthens the skin barrier, which is crucial after sun exposure. Incorporate it into your routine morning and night through a serum or moisturizer.

Recommended Products :

  • Starlight by IREN : This brightening serum, formulated with Yuzu extract, 2% alpha-arbutin, and 5% niacinamide, reduces visible signs of pigmentation and inhibits melanin production, resulting in a more even and glowing complexion.
  • Essence Vitamine VC 20 by EN : Revives tired skin and evens out the complexion while protecting against environmental stressors and minimizing the appearance of pores. The stabilized vitamin C derivative VC-20 ensures better absorption and effectiveness.
  • Silky Radiant Pure Toning Lotion by MAKANAI : Enriched with licorice root and rice bran, this lotion deeply hydrates and evens out the skin tone, leaving it soft and luminous.

Intense Hydration: Plump and Smooth

Hydration is key to achieving plump, glowing skin. After summer, it’s essential to restore your skin’s hydration levels to prevent dehydration and loss of volume.

  • Hyaluronic Acid : This ingredient retains moisture in the skin, instantly plumping it up. Use a serum or mask containing hyaluronic acid after moisturizing your skin, morning and/or night.

Recommended Products :

  • Dual HA Serum by Shigeta : Highly concentrated in two molecular weights of hyaluronic acid, this serum intensely hydrates the skin both on the surface and deep within, plumping dehydrated skin from the first use.
  • Hyaluronic Acid Mask by MITOMO : A mask enriched with a high-quality essence of hyaluronic acid for intense and long-lasting hydration. ..
  • Serum Lotion by Waphyto : A lotion enriched with ultra-hydrating botanical extracts, offering a sensory botanical experience to start your day right, leaving your skin revitalized and radiant.
  • Gettou Mask by RUHAKU : A sheet mask infused with a rich emulsion for deep hydration and total relaxation.

Gentle Exfoliation: Reveal Smooth Skin

Exfoliation is essential to remove dead skin cells and reveal smoother, more radiant skin. Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) are perfect for refining the skin’s texture.

  • AHA : These exfoliating acids help to remove dead skin cells, refine pores, and reveal a brighter complexion. Use a toner or serum containing these acids 2 to 3 times a week, preferably in the evening.

Recommended Products :

  • Skin Refining Gel by IPSUM ALII : A gentle exfoliating gel with a unique gommage effect, enriched with soothing adaptogenic ingredients to remove dead skin cells without irritating the skin.
  • Glow Getter by IREN : This exfoliating serum activates the skin’s repair process, revealing a healthy, naturally glowing complexion.
  • AHA Cleansing Oil by RUHAKU : A cleansing oil that removes impurities while gently exfoliating the skin.

Strengthening the Skin Barrier: Protection Against Pollution

After summer, it’s crucial to reinforce the skin barrier to protect against urban aggressors, such as pollution. Ceramides and adaptogenic plant extracts are essential for this function.

  • Ceramides: Help to restore and strengthen the skin barrier, preventing dehydration and loss of firmness.
  • Adaptogens: Plants that help the skin combat environmental stress and enhance its natural glow.

Recommended Products:

  • Antioxidant Serum by IPSUM ALII: A bi-phase serum that hydrates, evens out, and strengthens the skin against external aggressors, thanks to adaptogenic plant extracts.
  • Adaptogen Cream by IPSUM ALII: Ultra-hydrating and nourishing, this cream protects and nurtures sensitive skin with high-quality adaptogenic plant extracts.
  • Ultra-Hydrating Cream by RUHAKU: Protects and deeply hydrates while repairing damage caused by UV rays and pollution, enriched with ceramides to reinforce the skin barrier.

SPF Protection: Prevent Premature Aging

Sunscreen remains essential, even in September. UV rays can still damage the skin and accelerate the aging process.

  • SPF 50: Apply SPF 50 sunscreen every morning to protect your skin from UV rays.

Recommended Products:

  • SOS Serum: Urban protection against UVA and UVB, enriched with antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, and ceramides for optimal defense and deep hydration.

When these active ingredients are integrated into a skincare routine tailored to your skin type, they can significantly help restore and maintain a beautiful glow after summer. Follow these steps to keep your skin radiant and protected, ready to embrace the fall season with confidence.
