As August comes to a close, it feels as though summer is gently stepping aside to make way for autumn. The rain refreshes the air, making colors around us more vibrant — greens become deeper, and hints of golden, amber, and warm browns begin to appear in the trees and fields. The sound of rainfall creates a cozy rhythm, reminding us that nature is shifting, and we too begin to feel the change.

Just as the seasons change, so do the needs of our skin. After the lightness of summer — when our skin often craves cooling, refreshing hydration — autumn calls for richer, more nourishing care. Cooler air and shifting humidity can leave skin feeling drier, making it the perfect time to introduce products with deeper oils, butters, and protective botanicals.

This is the season to reach for balms, rich creams, and oil blends that restore moisture, strengthen the skin barrier, and protect against the crisp winds ahead. Think of it as giving your skin the same comfort you would with a warm blanket or cozy sweater.

At Lavender Silk Farm, we love this transition — the beauty of nature changing colors, the soothing sound of rain, and the opportunity to refresh our self-care rituals to match the season.
