I don’t know about the coasts but here in the midwest summer means being outside 24/7. Hiking, biking, ATVing, public pools open up, and you’re in the lake whenever you can be. Basically, summer means long exposure to the sun and getting dirty.

TWO SUMMER SKINCARE MUST-HAVES

I’m gonna keep it simple in this post and share my top two skincare must-haves for this season: Sun Veil and the Berry Refined Scrub. Whether you have an entire skincare routine backing these two up or flying solo, these two will be a massive game-changer for your skin.

The Sun Veil is a mineral-based, lightweight, and hydrating sunscreen that doesn’t leave any white residue (win!). It provides broad-spectrum protection (protects against UVA and UVB rays) and it’s ideal for all skin types and tones. I use this daily (no matter what the season).

The Berry Refined Scrub is a 2-in-1 scrub that gently physically exfoliates the skin using cranberry seeds and, if left on as a mask, chemically exfoliates the skin using AHAs. It buffs away dull skin to reveal a smoother, softer, and more even-toned appearance. I use this a minimum of once a week or as needed, especially after my skin gets really dirty.
