As the seasons change, so should the products you use on your face if you want it to have a hydrated glow.
Experts have shared their top tips for adapting your skin care routine and looking your best in the coming months.
Dry skin is common in autumn and winter but it comes with a lot of problems.
Not only does dry skin appear older and can make fine lines and wrinkles more visible, makeup may not apply to your face as smoothly.
Be careful of the cleansers you use when washing your face

This is why choosing the right moisturiser and cleanser at this time of year is vital, according to experts at beauty and wellness marketplace Fresha.
They said: "In the summer when the weather is warmer and humidity levels are higher, our skin naturally produces more moisture. The moisture that comes with humidity absorbs into the skin, making it appear dewier.
"However, when temperatures drop and the air becomes cooler, our skin is stripped of the moisture it had in the summer months.
"To adapt to these changes, switching to a richer, cream-based moisturiser will provide your skin with the extra hydration it needs.
"Look for a product containing hyaluronic acid, which is especially effective in locking in moisture and keeping your skin well-hydrated.
"Incorporating this step into your routine will make a significant difference in preventing dryness and flakiness during the colder months."
Using the right moisturiser could make the most visible difference to your skin, but before this step, it is important not to make it worse with a stripping cleanser.
The experts continued: "Similar to the previous step, due to colder temperatures and drier air, our skin is also stripped of its natural oils, so it is important to change up your cleanser to adapt to this.
"During the summer, foam or gel cleansers are more common as they help to remove excess oil, sweat, and residue from sun cream. However, our skin has diverse needs in the autumn months.
"Switching to a more hydrating, cream-based cleanser will help preserve your skin's natural oils, keeping it smooth and soft as the cool air arrives.
