The 15 Best Beauty Products to Add to Your Fall Routine
The 15 Best Beauty Products to Add to Your Fall Routine
Once a week, we ask our editors to share the items they've been loving or lusting after—whether it's a new skincare product we're dying to try or a travel essential we can't live without. Consider "The Weekly Covet" your editor-approved wish list for beauty, travel, fashion, and everything in between.
Luminescent Eye Shade
Chantecaille
nordstrom.com
$54.00
"For me, fall is all about eyeshadow. I skip it in summer, but can’t wait to dip in as soon as the mercury drops. My current love: Chantecaille’s Luminescent Eye Shade in Elephant. Not only is it the perfect subtly sparkly neutral brown, its sales support African wildlife charities. If buying eyeshadow can protect pachyderms, shouldn’t we all have pretty lids?"—April Long, Beauty Director
Pro-Collagen Marine Cream
Elemis
elemis.com
$75.00
"I'm crazy about tweaking my skincare routine to prevent dry skin when the weather gets cooler. One product I swear by is this indulgent Pro-Collagen Marine Cream from Elemis, which I use nightly as a substitute for my lighter weight summer moisturizers. The Limited Edition Supersize version is a worthwhile investment—especially because a portion of proceeds are donated to The Pink Agenda, a non-profit that supports breast cancer research."—Lindsay Silberman, Contributing Editor
Active Botanical Serum
Vintner's Daughter
net-a-porter.com
$1.00
"Every time I am on set and the makeup artist has Vintner’s Daughter, I ask very politely if I can use a few precious drops. It’s time to get a bottle of my own! It makes my skin feel moisturized and glowing. And not to mention the scent is amazing."—MaryKate Boylan, Fashion Market Editor
The Silk CanvasFilter Finish Protective Primer
Tatcha
tatcha.com
$54.00
"When the weather cools down, you can see the dryness of my skin through foundation, concealer, and bronzer, no matter how much I moisturize. This Tatcha primer has become one of my favorite beauty products of all time because of how smooth it makes my skin before applying any beauty products. I recommend it to any and everyone."—Lucia Tonelli, Editorial Assistant, ELLEDecor.com
NightBright? Resurfacing Duo
Drunk Elephant
sephora.com
$28.00
"This specific combo of glycolic acid and marula oil keeps my skin clear and hydrated even as the season changes."—Caroline Hallemann, Senior News Editor
Squalane + Marine Algae Eye Cream
Biossance
sephora.com
$54.00
"My skin gets drier in the cooler fall temperatures, so I recently switched to an extra hydrating eye cream by Biossance. This cream has key ingredients to keep your skin smooth: squalane locks in moisture, while the Marine Algae complex reduces the appearance of fine lines. Plus, it's a clean beauty pick, created without sulfates, parabens, or phthalates."—Maggie Maloney, Associate Digital Editor
Illuminate Pumpkin Enzyme Peel
Savor Beauty
nordstrom.com
$80.00
"Not only does this glow-inducing peel bring some serious skin-smoothing power, it also smells exactly like pumpkin pie, which is just about as "fall" as it gets in my book."—Lauren Hubbard, Contributor
Vitamin C Ceramide Capsules Radiance Renewal Serum
Elizabeth Arden
amazon.com
$54.00
"I've tried other vitamin C products before, but this one takes the cake. It's not too sticky, comes in convenient little capsules, and (most importantly) has made my skin visibly brighter."—Chloe Foussianes, News Writer
Calming Serum
Dr. Barbara Sturm
net-a-porter.com
$250.00
"Another day, another serum. That’s how I felt when I came across Dr. Barbara Sturm’s Calming Serum. Admittedly, I’m a fan of the other products in her line, but I was dubious about adding another layer to my usual wash-and-moisturize routine. Well, it turns out this milky, replenishing potion is well worth the extra step. It’s soothing for redness and inflammation, and especially handy as we enter fall."—Erik Maza, Style Features Director
Moringa Light Cleansing Gel
Emma Hardie
amazon.com
$34.99
"I like to change up my skincare with the seasons, and since fall calls for regular nighttime exfoliation, it also calls for a good morning cleanse to rid my face of whatever has been sloughed off the night before. Enter: Emma Hardie Moringa Light Cleansing Gel. It's lightweight and refreshing, the perfect first step before my skincare for the day."—Roxanne Adamiyatt, Senior Digital Editor
Travel Set
Act + Acre
net-a-porter.com
$10.00
"Everyone is really into scalp care lately and after meeting Act + Acre founder Helen Reavey (who has seriously good hair mojo), I am too. The Act + Acre travel kit is a perfect way to try out the products and comes with a super-plush hair towel. Unclear if my scalp is healthier, but my hair has never been better—and that’s all we really want anyway, right?"—Olivia Martin, Style & Interiors Writer
Super Multi-Corrective Cream
Kiehl's Since 1851
sephora.com
$85.00
"Gone are the days of summer—and light moisturizers! I use this super-rich cream from Kiehl's before bed to lock in hydration and deliver a dose retexturing and anti-aging ingredients like beech tree and jasmonic extracts. I wake up with plump skin and not a dry flake in sight."—Sarah Madaus, Editorial Fellow
Rescue Water Lotion
Lab Series
labseries.com
$61.00
"When the temperature begins to drop, it becomes more difficult to keep your skin hydrated. I like to use this Lab Series lotion, which locks in moisture and tones the skin to keep it healthy."—Sam Dangremond, Contributor
’REPLICA’ By The Fireplace
Maison Margiela
sephora.com
$30.00
"Replica's By the Fireplace is the perfect scent to transition into winter. It's smoky and rich, but still sweet with notes of vanilla."—Caroline Hallemann, Senior News Editor
Cleansing Thickening Paste Shampoo for Men
Christophe Robin
bloomingdales.com
$53.00
"Christophe Robin’s thickening paste shampoo for men looks more like a gooey container of crunchier Nutella than your average shampoo. That thick texture is derived from ingredients like rassoul clay and Tahitian algae, and it’s what sets it apart from other hair products for guys. I love it when that viscosity dissolves on wet hair, whipping up a mop of foam for a supremely satisfying wash."—Erik Maza, Style Features Director
