865: Summer Skin Recovery: Repairing Your Barrier for Fall

Summer heat takes a toll on your skin. In this week’s podcast, we’re talking dryness, irritation, and the breakdown of your lipid barrier. This natural barrier is your shield against environmental stressors, and when it’s disrupted, inflammation follows. As the season shifts, it’s the perfect time to repair and restore. We’ll cover why ceramide-rich moisturizers matter, how hydrating soaks help replenish, and why it’s smart to ease up on exfoliation. Plus, we share tips on diet, recovery treatments, and why end-of-summer peels set you up for glowing, resilient skin heading into fall.
