Summer skincare essentials

Are you Summer Skin ready?

Whether you are staying in Ireland or heading abroad you can be holiday ready with our summer skincare essentials trio!

Because of our temperamental Irish weather, our skin is predominantly wrapped up most of the year. But when the sun shines the layers come off and it’s suddenly time to reveal our skin. The three products below are great value for money, natural, fragrance-free, vegan-friendly and Guaranteed Irish

1. Exfoliate with Epsom Salts

For skin that glows gentle exfoliation is key. Soaking in an Epsom Salts bath is a great way to relax and unwind but also to soften the skin. For smooth skin, why not make a simple exfoliation at home. Here’s a simple Epsom Salts exfoliation recipe for under €10!

  • Mix a handful of ULTRAPURE Laboratories Epsom Salts with natural oil, such as Olive Oil or Almond Oil, to form a loose paste.
  • Gently apply the mixture to your legs and arms.
  • Work the paste gently onto your skin, using circular motions, for several minutes.
  • Rinse off with warm water.

2. Moisturise with Coconut Oil

After you have exfoliated and removed any dry, dead skin cells, it’s important to moisturise the skin. We recommend using our fragrance-free Pure Coconut Oil. Extracted from the kernel of mature coconuts our Guaranteed Irish Coconut Oil is non-GMO, non-hydronated, and a must for soft, smooth skin (and healthy hair!). Coconut Oil contains nourishing fatty acids that help hydrate the skin. This multi-use product can also be used as a hair mask, gentle make-up remover and massage oil. This is a Summer Skin Essential!

3. Calm & Soothe with Aloe Vera

After a day in the sun, there is nothing better than lathering on our super cooling Aloe Vera Gel. Made with 99.9% Aloe Vera this fragrance-free after-sun gel is super hydrating and known to soothe sunburnt, dry and itchy skin. When in the sun always;

  • Apply a good quality SPF with UVA and UVB protection.
  • Wear a hat to protect your head, face and scalp from the sun.
  • Stay in the shade where possible.
  • Keep hydrated by sipping on water.
  • Wear cool cotton-type material to let your skin breathe.
  • Take cool (not warm) showers.
