By the time September rolls around, my skin is waving the white flag. Don’t get me wrong, I love summer. Long beach days, pool swims, salty ocean air, even a little travel thrown in. But after weeks of all that, my skin feels…tired. It’s like it’s been along for the ride and is now begging me for a break.
That’s why I shift into “reset mode.” Instead of ignoring it, I use this time of year to slow down, recharge, and give my skin some love. Nothing crazy or complicated—just a few little things that make me feel human again after sunscreen layers, sticky humidity, and too much time outdoors.
Trading Chlorine & Sunscreen for Something Softer
The first place I start is the shower. After weeks of chlorine, sweat, and sunscreen buildup, I want something that feels gentle but still luxe. eos Shea Better Cashmere Body Wash has me hooked. It’s soft, hydrating, and the vanilla cashmere scent makes me feel like I’m easing out of summer and sliding into cozy fall. Plus, it’s under $10, which makes it feel like a small luxury I can reach for every day.
The Quick Fix My Face Begs For
By the end of summer, my face usually tells the whole story: a little dull, a little tight, and definitely in need of TLC. That’s when I grab the Tatcha Mini Favorites Set. It’s travel-sized (so perfect when I’m on the go) but also feels like a mini spa night in a box. A quick cleanse, a hydrating essence, and my skin looks alive again.
When I Want the Full “Reset Button”
Sometimes, a shower and moisturizer aren’t enough. Some nights I just need to slow down and treat myself. That’s where the Jasmyn & Greene Luxury Spa Gift Basket comes in. Candles, bath salts, lotion—the whole vibe. It’s not just skincare, it’s mood care. And after a summer of running around, that reset is exactly what I need.
Summer is always worth it—the saltwater swims, the road trips, the sun-soaked afternoons. But by the time fall sneaks in, my skin is craving balance again. These little rituals aren’t about being fancy; they’re about showing up for myself. Because if summer is all about going, fall is my reminder to slow down.
