Autumn is here. The mornings are darker, the air is colder, and the heating is flicking back on. For your skin, that means one thing: dryness.
At BAZ & CO, we believe in keeping men’s skincare simple, natural, and effective. Here’s how to protect your skin this October — with a few easy swaps that will make a big difference.
Why Skin Gets Drier in Autumn
When the temperature drops and central heating goes on, the air around us dries out. Less moisture in the air = less moisture in your skin. Add cold winds and hot showers into the mix, and your skin barrier takes a beating. The result? Flaky, tight, or irritated skin.
Top Skincare Tips for October
1. Switch to a Gentle Body Wash
Avoid harsh soaps that strip your skin. A concentrated, natural wash like our Restore & Awaken Body Wash cleanses without leaving you tight or dry — perfect for daily showers after the gym or commute.
2. Exfoliate, But Don’t Overdo It
Dead skin cells build up more in colder months. Using a 2-in-1 Exfoliator Cleanser a few times a week clears pores, smooths rough patches, and helps your moisturiser absorb properly.
3. Lock in Hydration with Moisturiser
This is the non-negotiable step. A lightweight but nourishing cream like our Skin Food Moisturiser keeps skin hydrated all day, without grease. Tip: apply straight after washing when skin is still slightly damp.
4. Freshen Up Without Chemicals
Dry winter skin doesn’t need more irritation. Our Naturally Fresh Deodorant is aluminium-free and powered by basil and vetiver — effective, but kind to skin.
Quick Wins Beyond Skincare
-
Turn down the water temperature: Hot showers feel great but strip natural oils. Go warm instead.
-
Hydrate from the inside out: Keep drinking water even when it’s colder.
-
Invest in a humidifier: Helps balance out the drying effects of heating.
-
Protect outdoors: A scarf and gloves shield your skin from wind burn.
Healthy skin doesn’t need to be complicated. Just the right formulas, made with nature in mind.
