    Unlike trendy seasonal fashions, good skin is always "in." Your skin deserves the best treatment, so start by protecting one of the most exposed features on your body during the colder months -- your face. I've rounded up a few of the latest and greatest buzzworthy beauty and skin care products to hit the shelves this fall with expert tips from Ling Chan, creator of LING Skin Care products and Ling Spas in New York City, who's known for helping Hollywood's top leading ladies put their best face forward both on and off the screen.

"Maintaining your skin is a lifelong commitment," says Chan. "Taking care of the skin is just like taking care of the body- it becomes part of a lifestyle. It is important to dedicate time to your customized plan to help achieve great skin." For starters, Aveda Enbrightenment Cleanser is gentle enough for frequent use and visibly improves skin clarity. Carol's Daughter Gentle Face Wash is also a great addition to your skin regime since it dissolves dirt and grime without stripping away moisture.

    We all know that an apple a day can keep the doctor away. Turns out that fiber-rich fruit (and its vitamin-rich counterparts) can ward off stress and a range of skin woes, too. At Pacific Waters Spa in Southern California, pears, blueberries and other healthy snacks are cropping up in a slew of body treatments designed to promote health, beauty and overall well-being. The antioxidant properties of blueberry and soy combine for a slimming body wrap aimed at improving skin elasticity and firmness, while apples and pears team up in a nourishing body treatment meant to infuse skin with an irresistible glow. And the delicious scents of pineapple, papaya and starfruit add a stress-busting aromatherapy element to the spa's menu of body scrubs. Getting hungry? Drop by the on-site cafe for a post-treatment smoothie made from -- you guessed it -- fresh fruit!

    Turmeric Steps Out Of The Kitchen And Into Your Beauty Kit!

    Turmeric has jumped from the kitchen spice rack and onto the bathroom shelf! With its peppery flavor and spicy aroma, what place does it have in your skin creams and cleansers? Aside from its traditional culinary uses, the medical and cosmetic benefits of Turmeric date back to ancient times. It has the powerful ability to brighten the complexion, even out skin tone, get rid of blemishes, and also help protect skin from free radicals and toxins. It's often used as a skin softener in Asia, mixed into a paste with milk cream, sandalwood powder and Rosewater and applied to the body. But forget mixing a home paste! Turmeric is now available in a large variety of new face and body products. Use a skin-brightening polish to take your skin from dull to radiant, or an Indonesian face mask to even out skin tone and draw out impurities. For cleansers to detox supplements and all beauty products in between - check out the slideshow for some Turmeric-based products!

    Need A Quick Fix For Your Skin? Try Lush "Grease Lightning"

    Beauty brand Lush has got a new product, called Grease Lightning. It's a cleansing gel with a useful pump, especially made to fight pimples. It has a very light structure and it doesn't dehydrate your skin. Don't expect a huge pimple to vanish in one day when you use the gel... but within a day (when you use it two times a day) a large pimple can definitely get smaller! The gel contains several natural ingredients, such as tea tree, thyme, rosemary, aloe vera and lavender. Thyme, tea tree and rosemary kill bacteria and contract the pores, while lavender and aloe vera help softening and reduce redness. Sounds good, doesn't it? Grease Lightning is now for sale for 8,90 EUR at Lush shops. See more at Girlscene!
