After a long and eventful summer, we must face the reality that our skin could be in terrible shape once autumn arrives. From so much fun in the sun, wearing makeup Herbivore Emerald CBD + Adaptogens Deep Moisture Glow Oil skincare routine and a host of other warm weather things — our skin may be in worst shape than the previous year. If this happens to be you in a nutshell, we’ve got you covered with tips to rescue your skin post-summer.
Herbivore Emerald CBD + Adaptogens Deep Moisture Glow Oil Herbivore Botanicals co-founder Alex Kummerow to give us the deets on reviving the skin after summer wear and tear. For those who aren’t in the know, Kummerow started the brand due to his personal struggles with eczema, which is notorious for giving those with the condition problems when switching seasons. When we began Herbivore, I struggled with eczema on my arms, face and legs. It’s part of why we experimented with making products in the first place, which eventually led to the creation of Herbivore. Our soap recipe was created in our kitchen and within a few months of using it exclusively, my eczema was 100% gone.
As a beauty editor who also struggles with eczema and dryness during the summer and winter months, it only made sense for us to tap the experts of Herbivore to give us those golden nuggets on how to whip our skin back into action. Keep reading on as Kummerow walks us through the brand’s key offerings to refresh and restore your skin for the autumn.
