The Best Summer Spa Treatments for Glowing Skin 

As we wave a fond farewell to one of the wettest Winters, we look forward ahead to planning Summer stays and treating our bodies to a well-deserved reset and glow up! 

Northcote Manor Hotel and Spa is based in the rolling North Devon countryside and offers the perfect spot for some self-love, providing some of the best Summer spa treatments for glowing skin. 

Here we’ll discover why you need to care for your skin in Summer, what treatments are recommended and top tips on keeping your skin at its best in between spa visits. 

Why Your Skin Needs Extra Care in Summer

After the toll winter takes on our skin, it’s craving a little sunshine and that much-needed dose of Vitamin D. The warmer weather is welcomed with open arms, but it can bring some added risks to your skin, so be aware of dehydration, sun exposure and the build-up of SPF which can lead to congestion and breakouts. 

In order to combat any problems with your skin it’s best to plan a combination of Summer spa treatments alongside a decent home skin-care plan to ensure your skin glows to the max! Things to help with your Summer radiance: 

Keep the hydration up to combat moisture loss
Use daily SPF to protect against UV damage
Gently exfoliate to prevent clogged pores
Take in those antioxidants to fight environmental stress 

Summer Facials for Instant Radiance

Looking to achieve that instant glow in Summer? Facials are the answer! Not only do facials leave your skin feeling instantly radiant, they support long-term skin health, so you must add a facial to one of your Summer spa treatments! 

In addition to giving you that overall glow, they help your skin by: 

Offering a deep cleaning (so removing dead skin cells, excess make-up, a build up of oil for example)
Exfoliating your skin (usually through enzyme exfoliation or mild chemical peels)
Hydrating your skin (improving elasticity and making skin look fresher)
Improving circulation (usually by a good facial massage)

With a huge variety of facials to choose from, you can get the right facial based on your outcomes and many facials can be adjusted to suit your skin type. It’s recommended to keep up the facial routine, with every 4-6 weeks, alongside a great skincare routine to leave your skin feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
