Glowing All Summer: Your Ultimate Skin Care Guide from Suede Salon & Spa

06. 30. 2025

Summer is finally here, and with it comes sunshine, beach days, poolside lounging, and, of course, the need to give your skin a little extra love. At Suede Salon & Spa, we believe that radiant skin is always in season, but it needs some special attention during these hot, humid months. Whether you're chasing that sun-kissed glow or aiming to protect your complexion from harsh UV rays, we’re here to help you feel confident, pampered, and glowing all summer long.

Why Summer Skincare Is Different

The warmth and sunlight of summer can lift your mood, but they can also challenge your skin. Increased sun exposure, heat, sweat, and humidity can lead to dehydration, clogged pores, breakouts, and sun damage. Skin may become oilier or more sensitive, and your routine might need a seasonal refresh.

At Suede, we take a holistic approach to skincare, combining luxurious spa treatments with professional-grade products and expert advice. We’re here to help you understand how to adapt your regimen and get the best results.

1. Start with the Basics: Cleanse Gently, But Effectively

Your skin works overtime in the summer. Sunscreen, sweat, pollution, and natural oils can build up quickly, leading to clogged pores and dullness. A gentle, yet thorough, cleanser is key to keeping your complexion fresh and balanced.

Suede Tip: Look for gel or foaming cleansers that remove excess oil without stripping your skin. Our estheticians can recommend products tailored to your skin type during your next facial appointment.

2. Hydration Is Non-Negotiable

Many people assume they need less moisture in the summer, but that’s a myth. In fact, hot weather and air conditioning can dehydrate your skin. The key is to switch to lighter, non-comedogenic moisturizers that hydrate without feeling heavy.

Suede Recommends: Try a hyaluronic acid-based moisturizer or a refreshing gel cream. After your service at our spa, we’ll show you the perfect lightweight hydrator to lock in moisture and give your skin that dewy glow.

3. Sunscreen: Your Skin’s Best Friend

This might be the most important step in your summer skincare routine. Daily sunscreen is a must, yes, even on cloudy days or when you're spending time indoors near windows. UVA and UVB rays can cause premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and increase your risk of skin cancer.

Suede Favorite: Opt for a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher. Mineral sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide are great for sensitive skin. Come in for a skincare consultation and let us match you with a sunscreen that blends seamlessly with your lifestyle and skin tone.

4. Exfoliate (But Don’t Overdo It)

Exfoliation helps slough away dead skin cells and keeps your pores clear, allowing your products to penetrate more effectively. But in summer, it’s important not to over-exfoliate, especially if you’re spending time in the sun, which can make your skin more sensitive.

Suede Solution: We recommend exfoliating 1–2 times a week using a gentle scrub or an enzyme-based exfoliant. Or better yet, book one of our signature facials that include a customized exfoliation treatment designed just for you.

5. Body Care Matters, Too

It’s not just your face that needs love this season. Your body is on display in summer, so treat it with the same attention. Exfoliate with a body scrub a few times a week, keep your skin moisturized, and protect it from the sun.

Glow From the Inside Out

Healthy, beautiful skin isn’t just about what you put on the surface. Summer is a great time to hydrate with lots of water, eat antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables, and enjoy the kind of self-care that comes from slowing down and treating yourself well.

At Suede, we offer a sanctuary where beauty and wellness come together. From revitalizing facials and expert skincare to relaxing massages and luxurious body treatments, everything we do is designed to help you look and feel your best all summer long.
