My Go-To Summer Skin Rituals for Hydration, Clarity, and Glow

My Go-To Summer Skin Rituals for Hydration, Clarity, and Glow

Summer is one of my favorite times of year—but it can be tough on your skin. Between the heat, sweat, sunscreen, and long days outside, I’ve learned that your skincare rituals need to shift with the season.

Here are three things I do every summer to keep my skin feeling soft, clean, and glowing—no matter how high the temps climb:


No. 1  Double Your Masking Ritual

Sunday is always my at-home spa night, and I never skip a mask. But during summer, I add a second masking session mid-week to keep my skin feeling clear and balanced.

  • On Sundays, I reach for our Clarifying Mask to deeply detox and calm inflammation.

  • On Wednesdays, I’ll use either the Rose Clay Exfoliating Mask (for gentle exfoliation) or our Healing Mask, which is my secret weapon when sunscreen buildup causes breakouts. It’s made with peppermint and comfrey, two cooling, healing botanicals that always bring my skin back into balance.

Why it works: Frequent masking helps remove buildup, keep pores clear, and soothe the skin from environmental stress.

No. 2  Cool, Hydrating Toner—All Day Long

Your skin loses more moisture in the summer, and even oilier skin types can get dehydrated.

Here’s what I do:
I mist with our Balance Botanical Toner morning and night, and I keep a bottle in the fridge for a refreshing midday spritz.

Not only does it feel incredible, but misting also helps your oil-based serums absorb more deeply—delivering hydration and nutrients where your skin needs them most.


No. 3  Hydrate from the Inside Out

I always keep cucumber in the fridge during summer. I slice it into a carafe of cold water with mint or lemon balm from the garden—it’s delicious, refreshing, and gives your skin an internal boost of hydration.

Bonus: Cucumber is rich in silica, which supports skin elasticity and calmness.
