How to Keep Your Skin Happy in Warmer Weather

When the weather shifts, your skin usually lets you know—sometimes with dryness, sometimes with sweat, and sometimes with wait, why is this happening now?

You don’t need to overhaul your routine for summer. But a few small tweaks can help your skin adjust to the heat, the humidity, and the sun—all without adding more steps.

Here’s how we keep things simple when the temperature rises.

1. Lighter Layers > More Layers

In warmer months, your skin usually needs less, not more. Thicker creams and heavy butters can feel like too much, especially if you’re already sweating or layering SPF.

Instead, try a lightweight body oil right after your shower. It absorbs quickly, locks in moisture, and doesn’t leave a greasy layer behind. Our body oils are made with plant-based ingredients and phthalate-free scents, so they hydrate without clogging or coating your skin.

2. A Gentle, No-Nonsense Cleanser

You’re probably showering more often in the summer—after gardening, swimming, or just walking through the humidity. That makes your soap more important than ever.

Our bar soaps are made with fair trade shea butter and plant-based oils, so they clean without stripping your skin. No synthetic detergents, no harsh fragrance—just a balanced clean you can use every day.

3. One Product That Does (Almost) Everything

Our Clarifying Face Serum is the MVP in summer.

This lightweight oil serum is packed with potent botanicals that nourish, calm, and hydrate—without feeling heavy. It’s made with:

• Blue tansy to soothe inflammation and support a clear complexion

• Organic black cumin seed oil to deeply hydrate and balance oil production

• Rosehip and argan oils for brightening and antioxidant support

It’s formulated for all skin types, with extra love for acne-prone or rosacea-prone skin.

How to use: Apply 3–6 drops on clean, damp skin morning and night. Massage gently in upward circles. For most skin types, this replaces moisturizer entirely.

The scent is subtle—soft and earthy, with a whisper of pepper from black cumin and the calming floral tone of blue tansy.

Summer is a great time to refill your favorite bodycare products—especially if you're using them more. We offer in-store refills for oils, serums, and more at our Oshawa shop. It’s easy, low-waste, and comes with a discount.
