my skin every autumn, honestly

Right so the heating went on last week and my face has basically staged a protest. Tight around the jaw, a bit dull, that dry patch I always get by my nose. Every year, same thing. I've started being a bit more deliberate about it — not in a faffy way, just keeping up with the collagen consistently rather than forgetting for a week and then wondering why I look tired. To be fair it does seem to help, takes the edge off that sort of... deflated look skin gets in October. The other thing is I've just accepted I need to swap my moisturiser when the seasons turn. What works in August does nothing in November. Obvious really but it took me embarrassingly long to act on it. If anything's feeling really off with your skin it's worth mentioning to your GP, mind you — sometimes it's hormonal stuff underneath and not just the weather.
