Committing to a Makeup-Free Summer + BeautyBio Sale EARLY ACCESS

I’m a summer girl through and through. I want to lay in the sun, swim in the pool, drink margaritas on a patio, and not worry about my foundation melting in the 197 degrees temps that Dallas WILL hit. So let’s talk about summer skincare. Because while we love a good foundation, a sticky layer of makeup under the sun is not ideal. It’s time to give our skin some space to breathe and embrace the season.

You don’t have to redo your entire beauty routine or purchase an entirely new makeup bag. A few easy swaps will keep your summer glow going all year.

So as you get bikini ready, let me tell you my top skincare recommendations for a makeup-free summer!

If you follow me on social you’ve probably noticed that BeautyBio has been the skincare brand that I keep sharing. The first product I ever purchased from them was the GloPRO tool (if you don’t have one yet, grab it on sale!!) and that’s what made me fall in love with the brand! The products themselves are great and the blush rose gold packaging feels very on-brand for me… I just keep coming back for more. They just released some new sets and deals for summer, so I thought I’d share some of my favorite products so you can pick and choose as you wish!

THIS WEEKEND IS THEIR FRIENDS + FAMILY BLUSHRUSH SALE, WHERE YOU GET 30% OFF SITEWIDE! YOU CAN SHOP IT EARLY WITH CODE BLUSHRUSH30 (THIS SALE ENDS ON 5/29)

AM + PM Serum Bundle

Every skincare guru will tell you to include a Vitamin C serum in the morning and retinol at night and this bundle has you covered:

  • The Daily (AM serum) is your Vitamin C designed to be applied in the morning, helping your skin protect against environmental damage. It is a non-acidic vitamin C brightening serum that promotes collagen production, tightens your pores and protects from environmental factors. Apply after toner and before moisturizer.
  • The Nightly (PM serum) contains retinol and helps repair skin damage while you sleep! It smooths out your skin’s texture, reduces wrinkles, and corrects discoloration. Apply after toner and before moisturizer.

Bright Eyes

Let’s talk about the eyes. They say that the eyes are the window to the soul, but they’re also one of the first places to show signs of aging and fatigue. That’s why I love these eye gels. They’re infused with colloidal silver and within 10 minutes, de-puff and brighten your eye area. I keep mine in the fridge for an extra cooling sensation. If I didn’t get enough sleep they are a lifesaver because of how quickly they work. They’re a game-changer for tired moms!

Complete At-Home Skincare Set

If you’re looking for a complete skincare set that you can do at home, this is it! This all-in-one facial kit includes everything you need for professional-grade skincare results. It comes with everything you need for a full regimen – from the pH Gel Cleanser and toner to the serums and moisturizer. Plus, it includes their famous GLOfacial tool which is basically a vacuum for your pores! I have personally tested all of the skincare products included in this bundle and I can confidently recommend each and every one of them.

The set includes a Limited Edition Briefcase Skincare Bag, the GLOfacial Tool, 50ml GLOfacial Concentrate, Balance pH Gel Cleanser, Daily, Nightly, ZenBubble Gel Cream, ZenBubble Toner Serum and Eyelighter.

The Balance helps to restore your skin’s pH balance and removes makeup without stripping it of it’s natural moisture levels. The GLOfacial gives your pores a deep clean by exfoliating your skin and removing makeup, dirt and oil. The new ZenBubble Bi-Phase Toner Serum is a clarifying toner and anti-aging repair serum all in one that helps calm skin redness, control oil and reduce wrinkles and fine lines.

These products have left a notable difference on my skin, leaving it looking clearer and smoother, with much fewer dark spots! This has been especially noticeable since I’ve committed to going makeup-free all summer long. With these products and the right skincare routine, it’s so much easier (and more enjoyable!) to go out in the sun without wearing any makeup.

GLOfacial

The GLOfacial is included in the Big Bag Bundle, but you can purchase it separately too! This is one of my favorite tools that BeautyBio offers because it’s like an at-home hydration facial. The GLOfacial is basically a vacuum for your pores! It gently pulls out all the unwanted dirt, makeup and oil, which also makes them appear smaller. AND it infuses your skin with Salicylic and Hyaluronic Acid to clarify and plump your skin. So satisfying! My skin always feels so smooth and healthy after I do this!

There you have it – my favorite skincare products for a makeup-free summer! Whether you’re looking to streamline your beauty routine or just take a break from makeup, these products will help you achieve all of your skincare goals. Remember, the most beautiful thing you can do is be yourself, so embrace your natural beauty and let your inner glow shine. Your skin will thank you for it!
