The skincare routine your skin needs after summer
September is that time of year when everything starts falling back into place. We go back to the office, back to our schedules, back to the gym, back to eating a little better (or at least we try) and, of course, back to our skincare routine.
Because let’s be honest: we love summer, but sometimes our skin comes back from holiday feeling a little… off. More sun, more heat, more sweat, changes in our schedules, travelling, less routine… And suddenly September arrives and you think: okay, let’s get back on track.
At Facegloss, we have a plan: a six-product routine designed to bring back all the glow, hydration and comfort we want to restore after summer.
So, get your beauty bag ready. We’re starting.
1. CLEANSE: JELLY DELI CLEANSER
After summer, getting back to a good cleansing routine is probably the best place to start.
Enter Jelly Deli Cleanser, our ALL-IN-ONE cleanser that makes cleansing your skin an extra enjoyable step.
Its texture starts off like jelly and, with just a little water, transforms into a light mousse that deeply cleanses without leaving your skin feeling dry or tight.
Its formula combines aloe vera and glycerin with mango and passion fruit extracts to cleanse, purify and hydrate the skin at the same time. And the best part? You can use it however you like:
-
As the first step of a double cleanse, to remove makeup.
-
As the second step, thanks to its mousse texture, for a deeper cleanse.
-
Or as a single cleanser, if you haven’t discovered the wonderful world of double cleansing yet.
One product, several ways to use it and clean, hydrated skin ready for what comes next.
2. RESET: CLIMAX CLAY MASK 1–2 TIMES A WEEK
Now that our skin is clean, it’s time for a proper reset.
Enter Climax, our clay mask that is so much more than just a clay mask. Use it 1–2 times a week, depending on what your skin needs.
Its formula combines kaolin and rice extract, which help absorb excess sebum, with bacillus ferment, bisabolol and soothing extracts that help hydrate, balance and care for the skin barrier.
The best thing about Climax is that it adapts to what your skin needs: the application time changes the type of treatment:
5 minutes → A fresh, clean and radiant complexion.
10–15 minutes → Deeper pore cleansing and smoother-looking skin.
20 minutes → Intensive cleansing, visibly minimised pores and purified skin.
The result is clean, soft, even and radiant skin, without that tight, dry feeling that makes you want to immediately reach for your moisturiser.
And if you want to take your self-care moment to the next level — full mini-at-home-spa vibes — the set includes a brush with a silicone spatula for applying a thin, even layer, plus two reusable cotton pads that make removing the mask even easier with warm water.
3. GET THAT GLOW: GLASSKIN
Now we’re talking. Let’s get that glow back.
You probably don’t just know Glasskin Serum — you love it with your whole heart. It’s our most viral product and, honestly, we completely understand why.
Glasskin is another essential ALL-IN-ONE. Its formula combines niacinamide, four types of peptides, hyaluronic acid in different molecular weights and squalane.
And what does it do?
It hydrates. Smooths. Improves texture. Minimises the appearance of pores. Strengthens. Soothes. Helps improve the appearance of dark spots. And it also has anti-ageing benefits.
Basically, we ask a lot of it — and it delivers. The result is soft, plump, radiant-looking skin that makes you look in the mirror and think: okay, maybe I am back.
4. GOODBYE, DARK SPOTS: MILKY FADE SERUM
Because summer leaves us with plenty of good things. But sun spots and the dreaded melasma definitely aren’t on the list.
So, if you want to start working on your skin tone after summer, now is the time.
Milky Fade Serum is our daily treatment serum designed to target hyperpigmentation.
It combines tranexamic acid, alpha-arbutin and peptides with a gentle concentration of glycolic acid, which supports skin renewal.
And all of this comes in a texture we absolutely love: milky, lightweight yet nourishing, melting into the skin and delivering instant comfort.
It also contains centella asiatica to help soothe and rebalance the skin.
With continued use, skin looks more even, radiant and balanced.
Because yes, we love makeup.
But if we can get to a point where we love our skin without filters and without having to cover it up, even better.
5. HYDRATE: FEELS LIKE WATER CREAM
We’ve reached one of our favourite steps: moisturising.
But we have one condition.
It’s still hot, so we want hydrated, comfortable skin BUT with absolutely none of that feeling of having a thick layer of cream sitting on top of our skin.
That’s where Feels Like Water Cream comes in. A moisturiser that somehow manages to be super hydrating and super lightweight at the same time.
Its cream-gel texture melts into the skin, absorbs in seconds and leaves a dry, velvety finish that feels just right.
As well as hydrating, it helps improve the appearance of skin texture and support the skin barrier.
6. WIDE-AWAKE EYES: BRIGHT EYE CREAM SPF20
And finally, let’s talk about one of the areas that tends to give away just how intense September has been: the eye area.
Bright Eye Cream SPF20 combines niacinamide, caffeine, resveratrol and squalane to care for and protect the delicate eye area. Niacinamide and resveratrol provide antioxidant benefits and help improve the appearance of the area, while caffeine helps reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffiness.
But Bright has one more trick up its sleeve. Its pearly peach tint helps visually neutralise dark circles and brighten the eye area.
In short: looking like you got eight hours of sleep, even when reality says otherwise.
It also contains SPF20 to provide an extra layer of protection for this delicate area.
And those are our six steps to help get your skin back on track after the holidays.
You don’t need to overcomplicate things. You need to get back to basics, stay consistent and give your skin what it’s asking for: good cleansing, hydration, targeted treatment and glow.
And, above all, products that work REALLY well together.
