Ready to show off a little skin this summer? All this warm weather has us trading in our jeans for cool shorts, our sweaters for tees, and boots for sandals. Your skin will glow this season with our simple tips for keeping it looking luminous and healthy!
That’s where exfoliation comes in. Using a gentle exfoliator one to three times a week removes dead skin, helping your inner beauty shine through. Pay attention to how your skin reacts, though, since over-exfoliation can irritate the skin and cause reddening—you know your skin best!
We love our new Lavender-Oatmeal Bar Soap for gently exfoliating your body with oat bran, leaving your skin feeling soft and supple.
If you prefer using a body gel, try using an exfoliating glove or a gentle salt scrub as part of your shower routine.
Moisturize immediately after bathing by patting your skin dry with a towel, locking in moisture. Give the sensitive skin on your face added hydration with our ART® Light Moisturizer or brighten and even the appearance of skin tone with Sheerlumé™. If you already use a facial moisturizer you love but love the benefits of essential oils, try mixing a small amount of Frankincense or Cedarwood to your daily application of liquid foundation to help your skin look dewy all day long.
Increase the moisture in the air of your workspace with a humidifying diffuser like our Dewdrop™, Home, or Bamboo diffusers.
Your grandmother’s beauty sleep is one of the best ways to rejuvenate your body and skin every single day. The Mayo Clinic has a great resource to see how much sleep you need each night, depending on your age and other factors.
Like the rest of your body, your skin dries out when you aren’t drinking enough water. Ensure you stay hydrated by keeping a reusable, spill-proof water bottle on hand at your desk, running errands, or even around the house. Flavor your water by infusing it with Vitality essential oils and fruit. You’ll love the burst of flavor, and your body will love the hydration!
Give your body the nutrients it needs! Research suggests that eating a diet full of antioxidant-rich foods like carrots, apricots, leafy greens, tomatoes, blueberries, legumes, fatty fish, and nuts can help improve your overall health and with it, your skin’s appearance.
This summer, be confident in your own beautiful skin! These easy tips are just a few ways to start, if you haven’t already.

Love the lavender bar! Would love to try the oatmeal lavender. Frankincense is amazing. Would love to try our moisturizer. YL covers all areas of my life to support overall wellness.
I am new on my journey with Young Living, but the first thing I did after going through my premium start kit was I came to check out the blogs. I want to know the best ways to take care of myself and my family and this is a great start! Summer is here and what better way to show off the oils and my YL lifestyle than by looking my best with the tips above.
I love the Lemon Sandalwood Soap bar for my skin. I also make my own face serum using Lavender, Frankincense, Tea Tree, and Purification along with rose hip seed oils as carrier.
I love to use coconut oil and Frankincense on my face and neck at night. Be sure to wash face in the morning so you won't look oily.
Thanks for this information about getting my skin to glow! Very informative.
Would love to try these products and to become more aware of their benefits to help me share them with others!
This sounds like an easy regimen to follow. I need to earn these products with my points.
I use clary sage and frankincense mixed with coconut oil as a daily night moisturizer.
I add a couple drops of frankincense to grapeseed oil. I love it!
Before I apply my moisturizer I mix a drop of frankincense with water and smooth over my face and neck before my moisturizer.
