Your Ultimate AM to PM Summer Skincare Ritual

Jul 29, 2025

TiZO from Morning to Night

Sunshine is great for the soul, but not always for your skin. Whether you’re beach-bound, hiking, or just commuting in the heat, UV rays, sweat, and dehydration can leave your skin dull, dry, or irritated.

So, what’s the best way to prep and protect your skin all summer long?

It starts with a simple, effective morning and evening skincare ritual designed to shield, hydrate, and repair. Below, we’re breaking down the exact routine that dermatologists and your skin will thank you for.

Morning Skincare: Protect & Prep for the Day

1. Cleanse to Start Fresh

Every great skincare routine starts with a clean canvas. In the morning, use a gentle, pH balanced cleanser to remove oil and overnight buildup. This sets the stage for your treatment products and helps SPF absorb more effectively.

Recommended: TiZO Gentle Foaming Cleanser

2. Apply a Vitamin C Serum with Bakuchiol

To combat a long day of sun and free radical damage and to boost glow, layer on TiZO Advanced Vitamin C + E Serum. It delivers powerful antioxidants and includes bakuchiol, a gentle retinol alternative that helps reduce fine lines and even skin tone—without causing photosensitivity.

Why You’ll Love It:

Brightens dull skin

Smooths fine lines

Safe for daytime use

Non-irritating, even on sensitive skin

3. Don’t Skip Your Mineral SPF

Sunscreen is your #1 defense against premature aging and skin cancer. Choose a broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen made with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide to reflect UV rays instead of absorbing them.

TiZO sunscreens offer:

Tinted & non-tinted options

Matte & glowy finishes

Reef-friendly, sensitive-skin-safe formulas

Long-lasting wear under makeup or on their own

Mineral ingredients like zinc oxide and titanium oxide not only protect your skin but also calm inflammation and redness making them ideal for year-round use. But they are especially helpful in the summer heat!

Evening Skincare: Cleanse, Rehydrate & Restore

1. Gently Wash the Day Away

After a day of reapplying SPF, sweating, and wearing makeup, you’ll want to fully remove everything before bed. Use a non-stripping cleanser to gently but effectively wash away sunscreen, pollution, and grime.

Tip: If you feel like your skin has more build up than usual, try a double cleanse (first oil-based, then foaming).

2. Rehydrate with a Lightweight Moisturizer

Summer skin still needs hydration, but without the heaviness. TiZO Daily Moisture provides deep hydration with a weightless feel. It soothes post-sun dryness and helps support a healthy skin barrier overnight.

Perfect for all skin types, even oily!
