Summer Staples for Healthy Hair and Skin
Summer is here, the weather is warm, and holiday season is almost in full swing. It’s the perfect time to refresh your haircare and skincare routine with products that actually help your hair and skin stay hydrated, protected, and vibrant through the hotter months. These are our go-to summer essentials to keep everything looking and feeling its best.
Sun Protection for Hair and Skin
The number one non-negotiable for summer is sun protection. New Zealand’s UV levels are notoriously harsh, especially through December and January, so daily protection for both hair and skin is crucial. Consistent UV care helps reduce colour fading, dryness, and premature skin damage.
For everyday SPF, we rate Dermatech Dermablock 30+ for the face, neck, and décolletage. For hair, the La Biosthetique Sun Care Conditioning Spray protects against UV rays, chlorine, and saltwater, while keeping the hair fibre hydrated and smooth.
La Biosthetique Hydration Drops: Lightweight Moisture for Summer Hair
Sunny days and outdoor living can leave the hair dehydrated, brittle, and frizzy. Adding targeted hydration into your routine is an easy way to maintain softness and strength.
La Biosthetique Hydration Drops are a leave-in serum powered by hyaluronic acid, designed to draw moisture deep into the hair shaft and help retain it. They keep the hair soft, supple, and less prone to breakage.
Hydration Drops are versatile:
• use them on their own as a daily leave-in
• cocktail them with styling products for extra slip and shine
• mix a few drops into your conditioner or treatment for a boosted moisture layer
La Biosthetique Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Capsules
These beautiful blue capsules are a summer skincare favourite and a gorgeous gifting option. Infused with concentrated hyaluronic acid, they deeply moisturise the skin and leave it velvety smooth. They also create a perfect base for makeup thanks to their plumping, glow-enhancing finish. If your skin leans dry or dehydrated in summer, these capsules help restore bounce and radiance.
La Biosthetique Fresh Skin Tinted Moisturising Cream
For lightweight, low-effort summer coverage, Fresh Skin Tinted Moisturising Cream is a standout. It balances uneven tones, hydrates thirsty skin, and gives a soft, natural glow. Glycerine smooths fine lines caused by dryness, while squalene helps bind moisture into the skin. With multiple shade options, it’s an easy no-makeup-makeup essential for warmer weather.
Keep Your Hair and Skin Hydrated All Summer Long
A little TLC now prevents dryness, fading, and dehydration later. These summer staples are easy to pop in your handbag or beach bag, making it simple to stay protected and hydrated wherever you’re heading. Enjoy the sunshine, keep your routine simple, and treat your hair and skin to the hydration and protection they need to thrive all season.
