There’s just something about summer, isn’t there?
Longer days, warmer nights, that post-beach hair, the possibility in the air. But while you’re soaking up the sunshine and living your best life, your skin is out here fighting the good fight—against heat, humidity, sweat, sunscreen, and all the outdoor adventures.
So here’s the deal: if your skincare routine still looks like it did back in January… it might be time for a summer switch-up. And no, we’re not talking about a 10-step routine or chasing some unrealistic, filtered version of “flawless” skin.
We’re talking real skin.
Clean ingredients.
And a glow that’s actually good for you.
Why Summer Skincare Deserves a Little Extra Love
Let’s be honest—summer skin can be tricky. Your moisturizer suddenly feels too heavy, you’re breaking out in places you didn’t know could break out, and you’re reapplying SPF like it’s your full-time job (as you should!).
The key? Let your skin breathe. Feed it nourishing, non-toxic ingredients. And give it a little boost where it counts.
Your Clean Summer Essentials (AKA Skin’s Summer Faves)
You don’t need a shelf full of products—you just need a few hardworking heroes:
Tamanu Luxury Facial Cleanser
The face wash your skin’s been waiting for. It’s gentle, creamy, and made with over 95% certified organic ingredients (hey, Tamanu oil). It melts away sunscreen, sweat, and city grime—without that tight, stripped feeling. Because no one wants a “squeaky clean” face that actually just means “super dry.”
Peptide Booster Serum
Let’s talk firm, bouncy, glowing skin. This oil-free serum is like a hydration bomb + collagen whisperer in one. It’s powered by pea peptides (yes, peas!) and hyaluronic acid, so it works behind the scenes to smooth, plump, and give your skin that naturally lifted look—without feeling heavy or sticky.
Bonus: It plays well with others. Layer it under your moisturizer, or use it solo when the humidity is doing the most.
Antioxidant Skin Boost
Think of this combo as your skin’s daily shield. Packed with botanicals and antioxidant-rich ingredients, they work to fight off free radicals (those sneaky little things that cause aging + dullness). They’re lightweight, hydrating, and breathable—perfect for hot days and long nights.
Lip Yummies + B Glossy Lip Gloss
Dry, sunburned lips? Not on our watch.
Our Lip Yummies are deeply hydrating with a soft, clean finish. Add B Glossy on top if you’re feeling a little glam—made with 98% certified organic ingredients and EWG VERIFIED™ to boot.
Let This Be Your Clean Girl (or Guy) Summer
Look—there’s nothing wrong with wanting to glow. But the best glow doesn’t come from shimmer or filters. It comes from skin that’s actually healthy, happy, and nourished with ingredients you can feel good about.
At Sally B’s, we make everything by hand with mostly certified organic ingredients. No petroleum. No parabens. No mystery chemicals. Just skincare that works with your skin—not against it.
So whether you’re heading out for weekend adventures or just enjoying your morning coffee on the porch, take a moment for yourself. Your skin deserves it. You deserve it.
