“Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.” —George Eliot
Beauty’s bounty comes full flower in spring, with fragrant blooms that release their heady scent warming in the sun. But the luscious fruits of autumn—apple, pomegranate, grape, pear—burst forth in the season of fecundity.
Ceres, the goddess of abundance and agriculture (pictured here), was responsible for the land’s fertility and gave humankind the gift of the harvest. Autumn’s beautifying bounty is her great gift to us all!
POMEGRANATE
OSEA Vitamin C Probiotic Polish
OSEA was one of the first—and still best—clean beauty brands. This polish comes as a superfine bamboo and rice powder, with fermented pomegranate enzymes and vegan probiotics, that is activated by a few drops of water. Gently massage the paste into the face, rinse, and pat dry to exfoliate surface buildup for brighter, fresher, more radiant skin. oseamalibu.com
GRAPE
Fitglow Beauty Redness Rescue Cream
For those who suffer from sensitive, inflamed skin, this lightweight cream will help calm it down. Wakame seaweed extract helps heal, a mineral tint will tone down the look of redness and inflammation, and organic grape-seed oil moisturizes and feeds antioxidants to the skin. detoxmarket.com
APPLE
One Love Organics Easy Does It Cleanser
A simple gel cleanser and elegant multitasker that works on face, body, and hair without stripping away the skin’s natural oils. Gentle but effective ingredients include cold-pressed apple oil, vegetable glycerin, and Chilean soap bar. A little goes a long way! oneloveorganics.com
Ilike Quince Apple Gel Mask
This soothing gel mask soothes sunburn, takes down puffiness, plumps lines and wrinkles, and revitalizes dehydrated skin. (Tip: If you keep it in the fridge, it feels so refreshing!) The quince apple also helps heal blemishes, while fruit acids stimulate collagen and elastin production and help with skin-cell turnover. Good for all skin types, it’s a mini-miracle in a jar! organicskincare.com
