what your skin really needs this fall (hint: not a peel)
Gently Transition Into Fall Skincare with Barrier Repair
As summer fades, everyone seems to be reaching for post-summer exfoliants and chemical peels. And while a good peel has its place (we love them too), it may not be the first step your skin needs right now.
After months of sun, saltwater, and chlorine, your skin’s barrier deserves repair—not stress.
Why Barrier Repair Comes First
Your skin barrier is your body’s first line of defense against dryness, irritation, and premature aging. When it’s weakened, you’ll notice dullness, tightness, or sensitivity. Instead of jumping into aggressive exfoliation, fall is the perfect time to restore your barrier and set the foundation for glowing, resilient skin.
A nourishing cleanser that removes impurities without stripping your skin’s natural oils.
Deep, botanical hydration to soothe and help repair sun-exposed skin.
Antioxidants that protect and rejuvenate while supporting anti-aging benefits.
Let’s rebuild, not overdo.

FAQ
What makes ästhetik different from other luxury skincare brands?
We prioritize your skin’s health over flashy packaging or mass-market shelf life. That means no parabens, phthalates, synthetic fragrance, or hormone disruptors—ever. Our formulas are esthetician-developed and rooted in clean, effective ingredients that actually work.
Are your products safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. Our entire line is crafted to support the skin barrier using gentle, plant-based ingredients. We skip common irritants like hidden alcohols and synthetic dyes to keep your skin calm, clear, and resilient.
Do you use preservatives?
We use only safe, clean preservatives that prevent contamination without compromising skin health. You’ll never find benzene, formaldehyde releasers, or undisclosed irritants in our formulas.
What do you mean by “bioavailable peptides”?
Bioavailable peptides are advanced, skin-loving molecules your skin can actually absorb and use. They help boost firmness, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and support long-term skin health.
I’ve been using a mainstream brand. Will I see a difference if I switch?
Most likely, yes. Many of our customers say their skin looks clearer, more hydrated, and more balanced within weeks of switching. When you remove the fillers and irritants, your skin can finally thrive.
Are your products vegan and cruelty-free?
Absolutely. We are Leaping Bunny and Cruelty-Free Kitty certified and committed to zero animal testing—now and always.
