When the leaves begin to change and the weather cools, our skincare routines need to adapt to the shifting seasons. Fall is a time for cozy sweaters, pumpkin spice lattes, and nurturing your skin, which can often become dry, dull and more sensitized as indoor heating kicks in. That’s why I’m excited to share my two favorite Starling products for this season: the Revive Face Serum and Radiance Body Oil. These luxurious oils are like food for your skin, packed with vitamins, omegas, fatty acids, and nutrients to keep you glowing all autumn long.

What I love about Starling's Revive Face Serum is that it can be used as a cleansing oil, and a moisturizer.  If you need extra deep cleaning for your skin or to remove dead skin cells that tend to accumulate with the dry conditions, it’s time to double cleanse. Revive serum as a “double cleanser” breaks down makeup, sunscreen, dead skin cells, and excess sebum before using a regular foaming cleanser.  I love massaging it in with my hands and then removing it using a cotton pad to help activate gentle manual exfoliation. Follow with your Starling Cleanser of choice and get ready to experience super clean and healthy, refreshed skin. Once finished with cleansing, you can go on to the next step in your routine and finish with the Revive face serum again to lock in moisture.  

Revive is infused with an array of plant-based and organic oils, including rose hip seed, hibiscus, broccoli seed, and hemp oils. These ingredients work synergistically to tackle a variety of skin concerns, leaving my skin feeling soft, supple, and radiant.

Here are just a few of the benefits Revive delivers for sensitive skin:

• Reduces Redness: It helps calm and repair damaged skin, making it a must-have for anyone dealing with irritation.

• Strengthens Skin Barrier: This serum fortifies your skin's natural defenses,                promoting a youthful glow.

• Diminishes Fine Lines: With regular use, you’ll notice fewer fine lines and wrinkles, which is incredibly encouraging as we age.

• Deep Hydration: Unlike many oils, Revive provides intense moisturization without clogging pores, making it perfect for daily use.

• Soothes Irritation: It’s gentle enough to calm conditions like rosacea and dermatitis, which is a huge plus for sensitive skin. And happens to be my biggest problem during the changing seasons. 

Another fall go-to must-have in my fall routine is Starling’s Radiance Body Oil. This luxurious oil is an absolute game-changer for rejuvenating my skin and keeping it glowing throughout the season. Here are some of the Radiance Body Oil highlights I love most:

• Immense Hydration: Formulated with organic oils including Evening Primrose Seed Oil, Hemp Seed Oil, and Borage Seed Oil, Radiance delivers a powerful hydrating shield for my skin. I love taking hot showers (I know it’s not good for sensitive skin but I can’t help it) so my skin gets dry and I get those pesky fine lines. After applying Radiance, the difference is notable after every use. My skin looks and feels smoother, the fine lines go away. I find if I don’t apply Radiance regularly on my dry skin, my skin ages faster, and looks dull.

• Non-Greasy Formula: A common misconception about using oils is that they leave a greasy residue. We intentionally formulated this body oil with lightweight, yet ultra-nourishing oils. Radiance sinks right into skin, leaving it undeniably soft and glowing.  Apply right after a shower on damp skin, and then towel off excess.  

• Uplifting Scent: The natural citrusy-green scent of pink grapefruit, cypress, and clary sage smells so good. It’s whisper light, and you can wear another scent without it being overpowered.

Revive Face Serum and Radiance Body Oil are irreplaceable additions for any fall pro-aging skincare routine. As the weather changes and skin becomes more prone to dryness and irritation, these products nourish and protect skin, keeping it balanced and radiant. Don’t let the changing seasons take a toll on your skin. Embrace the power of nature with Starling's Revive and Radiance, and unlock your healthiest glow this fall.
