🍂Anna’s Secret Lab Newsletter | November'25

Hello lovely,

I hope you’re staying cozy as we welcome the beautiful shift into November. This is the time when our skin begins to feel the effects of colder air and indoor heating, and our hearts begin to lean more toward comfort, self-care, and giving. In this month’s edition, I’m sharing simple seasonal skincare tips, a powerful Circadia product I consider a must-have for winter skin, and a special reminder that self-care is one of the greatest gifts we can give—to ourselves and those we love.

November Skin Wellness & Holiday Glow Guide

Nurture your skin. Nourish your spirit. Share the gift of self-care.

As November arrives, the air becomes cooler and drier—and our skin starts to feel the effects. Seasonal dryness, redness, dullness, and sensitivity are common this time of year as the skin’s protective barrier weakens. But with a few key changes, you can keep your skin radiant, supple, and glowing all winter long.

This month, we’re sharing our top seasonal skin care strategies, highlighting a must-have Circadia product for winter, and introducing our holiday gift cards—a beautiful way to share love, comfort, and self-care with those who matter most.

❄️ Top 5 Skin Survival Tips for November

1. Switch to a Barrier-Repair Moisturizer

Cold weather strips your skin of natural oils. This is the time to switch to a richer cream that deeply nourishes while protecting your skin barrier from environmental stress.

2. Add Humidity Back Into Your Home

Indoor heating quickly dehydrates skin. Using a humidifier while you sleep helps maintain healthy moisture levels and reduces fine lines and irritation.

3. Don’t Skip Exfoliation

Gentle exfoliation helps remove dry skin buildup, allowing your products to penetrate more effectively and keeping your complexion clear and bright.

4. Support Lymphatic Flow

Facial puffiness is common during colder months due to slower circulation. Lymphatic drainage facials stimulate detoxification and instantly refresh facial contours.

5. Protect During the Day

Even in cooler temperatures, UV rays and wind exposure can compromise your skin. Continue using SPF daily and seal your routine with a hydrating mist or antioxidant serum.

🌿 Featured Skincare for November: Deep Hydration & Recovery Support

As temperatures drop and indoor heating increases, your skin needs more than moisture—it needs barrier repair, hydration retention, and healing support. This month, we’re highlighting two winter must-haves from Circadia that protect the skin from dryness, irritation, and sensitivity.

💧 AquaPorin Hydrating Cream

AquaPorin Hydrating Cream is designed to deeply replenish moisture while activating the skin’s natural water channels (aquaporins) to improve internal hydration flow. It strengthens the skin barrier and locks in moisture for long-lasting comfort and glow—making it an ideal daily cream for colder months and after facial treatments.

Key benefits:

• Restores hydration at a cellular level

• Strengthens skin barrier to prevent moisture loss

• Provides soothing relief from dryness and tightness

🌸 Post Peel Balm

Post Peel Balm is an essential recovery cream designed to calm, protect, and accelerate skin healing after peels, exfoliating treatments, or seasonal irritation. Rich in healing botanicals and protective lipids, it helps reduce redness, supports barrier repair, and enhances treatment results.

Key benefits:

• Supports skin recovery post-treatment

• Reduces redness and inflammation

• Helps lock in moisture and promote healing

✨ Both products are now available in our spa boutique and online store—perfect companions for November facials and at-home winter skincare routines.

🎁 Share Love, Peace & Glow – Gift Cards Are Now Available

This November, let gratitude glow. With Thanksgiving approaching, our plastic and e-gift cards make it easy to say thank you in the most restorative way—time to relax, recharge, and feel cared for. Choose your design and amount, and send a little peace straight to their inbox—or wrap it up in person.

>>This is more than a gift—it's a moment of peace and self-love.

💡 Winter Skin Rescue – Beyond the Basics

As November deepens and the weather changes, your skin isn’t just dealing with dryness — it’s adjusting to less daylight, colder air, indoor heating, and stress-from the holidays ahead. Here are three extra care rituals many of the best spas highlight this time of year:

1. Switch to ‘rich but breathable’ textures: Use a cream or balm at night that supports your barrier—but still lets your skin breathe.

2. Nightly hydration mist: Keep a hydrating mist by your bedside and spritz before sleep to refresh skin after heater-dry indoor air.

3. Mindful skin breaks: Add a “skin reset” day before or after big events/travel (e.g., one gentle facial + home mask) so your skin isn’t overloaded by products and stress.

💫 Smooth Skin & Bright Eyes – Hair Removal + Lash/Brow Prep for the Holidays

The holiday season brings gatherings, photos, and travel—so prepping not just your face but hair removal, lashes and brows becomes part of the full look.

• Sugaring hair removal advantage: Perfect for sensitive or dry skin in colder months—less irritation vs waxing, easier on compromised winter skin.

• Brow + lash boost: A brow shaping + tint or lash lift/tint can open the eye area and finish your holiday look without heavy makeup.

• Timing tip: Schedule hair removal or brow/lash enhancements 2-4 days before an event to give skin a moment to calm and settle.
