7 Tips for a Radiant Summer Glow
Summer is here—and so is the heat, humidity, and extra sun exposure. While the warm weather brings good vibes and golden tans, it also means your skincare routine needs a seasonal upgrade! Here are 7 essential tips to keep your melanin-rich skin glowing, hydrated, and healthy all summer long. 🌞✨
1. Don’t Skip the SPF!
Even melanated skin needs protection. Choose a broad-spectrum SPF of 30 or higher and apply it daily—even when it’s cloudy. Reapply every 2 hours when outside to protect against hyperpigmentation and sun damage.
2. Keep It Light
Ditch the heavy creams and switch to lightweight moisturizers. Try gel-based or water-based options that hydrate without clogging pores. Our lemon + turmeric moisturizer is perfect for a breathable, radiant finish!
3. Cleanse Gently (But Thoroughly)
Sweat and sunscreen build up fast in summer. Use a gentle cleanser—like our lemon + turmeric facial cleanser—twice a day to remove impurities without stripping your natural oils.
4. Hydrate from the Inside Out
Water is your summer glow BFF! Drink up throughout the day, and add hydrating foods like watermelon, cucumbers, and berries to your meals.
5. Exfoliate Weekly
Keep your skin smooth and fresh by exfoliating 1–2 times a week. This removes dead skin cells and allows your glow to shine through. But don’t overdo it—gentle is key!
6. Tone for Balance
A good toner helps minimize pores and refresh your skin—especially during sweaty summer days. Our lemon + turmeric toner helps soothe and even out your complexion while keeping your glow in check.
7. Add Body Oils to Your Routine
Don’t let your body get left behind! Nourishing body oils like our Snickerdoodle Radiance Oil add moisture, shimmer, and that silky summer skin glow.
