Skin often requires a little extra TLC to stay healthy and radiant throughout Summer with its intense UV rays, heat and humidity. In this blogpost, we unveil the ultimate – naturally effective – Summer skin savers to keep you glowing throughout the season.
1. Sunscreen: Your Shield Against UV Damage
No Summer skincare routine is complete without the essential step of applying sunscreen. With the intense sun exposure in Australia and New Zealand, choosing a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF is paramount.
Be sure to reapply every two hours, especially if you're swimming or sweating. Protecting your skin from harmful UV rays not only prevents sunburn but also reduces the risk of long-term damage and premature aging.
Biotulin® UV30
Daily Skin Protection Cream
Biotulin® UV30 Daily Skin Protection Cream is a natural, skin-smoothing day cream with broad-spectrum UVA and UVB SPF30 protection. Plant-derived Squalane ensures non-greasy finish. No white cast. Vegan. Made in Germany.
KOSHO
Smart Protection Cream
KOSHO Smart Protection Cream is a natural, skin-smoothing day cream with highest antioxidants from Matcha extract and natural UV-protection of Ectoin extract (equivalent to approx. SPF15) Vegan, made in Switzerland.
2. Lightweight Hydration: Quenching Your Skin's Thirst
Summer temperatures can lead to increased perspiration, potentially leaving your skin dehydrated. Opt for lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturisers to keep your skin adequately hydrated without feeling greasy.
Ingredients like hyaluronic acid and plant-derived Squalane as in Biotulin® Soft Cream (previously Daynite24+) work wonders in maintaining your skin's natural moisture balance, ensuring a fresh and supple complexion without a greasy finish.

Biotulin®
Soft Cream
Natural moisturiser based on original skin-smoothing ingredients of Biotulin® Supreme Skin Gel with hyaluronic acid, shea butter and plant-derived squalane for non-greasy hydration. Vegan, made in Germany.
3. A Bold, Shine-Free Finish For Baldies
The scalp is one of the most sensitive areas of the body, with its thin structure and over 2,500 receptors.
Without the natural protection of hair, bald scalps require carefully tailored ingredients to keep them healthy and nourished.
The bestselling Better Be Bold Bald Cream is built on a moisturising foundation of jojoba oil and shea butter, two ingredients that work wonders against itchiness, dryness, and flaky skin.
Beyond their impressive hydrating properties, these oils absorb incredibly quickly, leaving the scalp with a soft, velvety and non-shiny finish—perfect for everyday use.
Pumpkin Seed Extract is the hero ingredient, providing an ultra-matte finish and counteracting the pesky shine caused by natural oil production.
4. Stay Hydrated: Nourishment From Inside Out
While external skincare is crucial, don't forget the importance of internal hydration. With the sun beating down, your body requires more water to stay cool and keep your skin hydrated.
On average we need 2 ½ litres of water per day. Close to 1 litre comes from our food (fresh fruit and veg, but also yoghurt, tofu and soy milk are water rich). So, to avoid dehydration and keep our body balanced, we should drink a at least 1 ½ litre of pure water.
All other drinks like teas, coffee, fruit juices should not replace pure water, as they include other components that can negate the valuable cleansing and detoxifying effects of water.
5. Enhance Results With Concentrated Ampoules
Enhance your summer skincare routine with concentrated ampoules. These powerhouse formulations help combat free radicals, generated by sun exposure, pollution, and other environmental factors.
Biotulin® faceLIFT 4-Week Ampoule Kit contains 20 highly concentrated, vegan-friendly, intensive facial care treatments, which should be applied after cleansing and before regular skincare (for example the original, natural, needle-free alternative to injectables: Biotulin® Supreme Skin Gel).
Thanks to their light consistency, the serums are absorbed particularly quickly and deeply into the skin. At the same time, the care molecules contained are particularly small and can therefore be absorbed even better. The four different serums are optimally coordinated with each other. The result is the ultimate skin "glow-up" over four weeks.
Biotulin®
faceLIFT 4-Week Ampoule Kit
Kit contains 20 ampoules which are carefully composed, vegan-friendly and designed to be used over 4 consecutive weeks (reserving weekends for exfoliations/masks)
Week 1 – Detox: aloe vera, green tea & carnosine protect the skin from environmental influences like air pollution
Week 2 – Deep Hydration: thanks to vegan, short- & long-chain hyaluronic acid, as well as proteins, acetyl hexapeptide-8 and panthenol
Week 3 – Plumping: thanks to vegan collagen, 3 peptides, niacinamides & plant-derived stem cells from the alpine rose
Week 4 – Smoothing: original, vegan Biotulin ingredients including Spilanthol, Blady Grass Extract (Imperata cylindrica) & sodium hyaluronate
6. Lip Care With SPF: For Healthy, Cold Sore Free Lips
Lips are often neglected when it comes to sun protection. Invest in quality lip care with SPF to shield your lips from the harsh UV rays. Reapply regularly, especially if you're spending extended periods outdoors.
This not only prevents sunburn on your lips but also reduces the risk of cold sores – for which sun exposure is a common trigger.

Strong enough to combat cold sores, or extremely dry/cracked lips, but gentle enough as every day care and proactive protection against cold sore outbreaks.
7. Post-Sun Care For The Body: Soothe & Repair
Even with the best precautions, sunburns can happen. Aloe vera gel, calamine lotion, and after-sun creams can provide soothing relief and aid in the skin's recovery.
Applying these products immediately after sun exposure helps minimise redness and discomfort while supporting the healing process.
