Lightweight. Brightening. Perfect for Summer Skincare.
Why Summer Skincare Matters – and How to Do It Right
When summer arrives, we all crave that radiant, sun-kissed glow. But heat, UV rays, and humidity can do more harm than good if your skincare isn’t aligned with the season. At Dr Botanicals, we believe summer skincare should be lightweight, brightening, and effortlessly effective.
1. Lightweight Formulas Are Key
Heavy creams and thick moisturisers can feel uncomfortable during the warmer months and may clog pores, especially when combined with sweat and SPF. Instead, opt for lightweight gels, water-based serums, and quick-absorbing moisturisers that hydrate without the heaviness.
Look for ingredients like:
-
Hyaluronic Acid – to lock in moisture without weight
-
Coconut Extract – soothing and fast-absorbing
-
Aloe Vera – light, calming, and refreshing
2. Brightening Ingredients for a Natural Glow
Summer is the perfect time to enhance your skin’s natural luminosity. Brightening ingredients like Vitamin C, Turmeric, and Watermelon Extract can help even out your skin tone, boost radiance, and protect against dullness caused by sun exposure or pollution.
Our favourites:
-
Vitamin C Serums – help brighten and protect
-
Superfood Cleansers – packed with fruit enzymes to revive skin
-
Antioxidant-Rich Oils – to boost your glow and shield from free radicals
3. Don’t Skip Hydration
Just because the air feels humid doesn't mean your skin is hydrated. In fact, sun, sea, and air conditioning can leave your skin dehydrated and unbalanced. A hydrating mist, lightweight moisturiser, or overnight mask can make a huge difference.
Pro tip: Add a hydrating serum underneath your SPF for long-lasting moisture.
4. Keep It Fresh & Clean
With more sweating, outdoor activity, and SPF use, keeping your skin clean is more important than ever. Use gentle, natural cleansers that won’t strip your skin. Our Watermelon Superfood Cleanser is a go-to for refreshing, non-drying summer cleansing.
