All set for success: Summer beauty products

Jul 22, 2025

Summer’s here. The sun is out, daylight hours are longer, and temperatures are high. When it comes to how we look and feel, summer isn’t simply about switching to lighter clothes; it’s also about adapting skincare and haircare routines to suit the season of heat, humidity, and sunshine.

For beauty brands, summer presents a golden opportunity to refresh product lines and capture seasonal demand. Whether you're launching a new skincare range or expanding your collection, Hera Beauty is here to recommend some essential additions to your range.

Let’s take a look at just some of the formulations that can help your audience feel their very best through every season. Here’s our top 10 suggestions:

  1. Make sunscreen your best friend

The number one rule of summer beauty? Never skip SPF. Skin needs daily protection from harmful UV rays, and our SPF50 Hybrid Moisturiser is the ideal solution - providing hydration and powerful sun protection for the face and body. This lightweight, non-greasy formulation leaves minimal white cast and is gentle on the skin, making it perfect for everyday use.

  1. Gain a summer glow

Want to achieve a flawless, sun-kissed glow all year round, without the harmful effects of UV rays? Our luxurious Gradual Tan Lotion hydrates while building a natural-looking tan, allowing you to control the depth of your colour. Safe for all skin types and available in shades light to medium, medium to dark, and ultra dark. You can also choose between salted caramel and coconut fragrances or unscented.

  1. Boost body confidence

Our sumptuous but easily absorbed Brazilian Booty Butter contains caffeine and Brazilian-inspired additions to help you feel full of confidence on the beach in summer. Caffeine has been shown to boost microcirculation in the skin and help prevent the accumulation of fat inside cells. This formulation also contains anti-oxidant-rich acai oil, buriti oil, passion seed oil and stimulating guarana extract.

  1. Nourish dry skin

Summer heat can be tough on skin. As a solution, try our Whipped Cocoa Body Butter, a natural formulation that delivers immediate and long-lasting hydration. This beautifully rich butter is non-greasy and is quickly absorbed by the skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth.

  1. Protect against environmental damage

Keep the skin on your face looking fresh and hydrated in the summer sun with our 100% natural, quick-absorbing Daily Glow Oil. Rich in omega fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants, its nourishing cocktail of grapeseed, jojoba, raspberry, kiwi and watermelon oils ensures deep hydration and strengthens the skin's natural barrier.

  1. Keep your cool

Feet can take a battering in the summer heat. Simply spray a small amount of this natural Cooling Foot Spray to instantly help hot and tired feet feel cool, fresh, and revitalised. Contains peppermint essential oil for a light, refreshing scent and aloe vera for its hydrating and soothing properties.

  1. Stay sweet-smelling

Our Natural Deodorant Balm will keep you feeling fresh throughout the day. This solid balm is designed to provide effective odour protection while nourishing your skin with the goodness of natural butters and oils, which include cocoa butter, grapeseed, and sunflower oil.

  1. De-stress your tresses

Ideal for a post-workout revive, use our Refresh Hair Mist to give your hair a boost. With a fantastic fragrance of citrusy may chang and sweet ylang ylang, our mist is blended with hydrating aloe vera and honey to leave the hair moisturised and shiny. It also contains panthenol, which is rich in pro-vitamin B5 to strengthen the strands.

  1. Repair your hair

The combination of sun exposure, saltwater, and chlorine means summer can be harsh on your hair. Our Hair Repair Oil contains a blend of 100% natural oils to bring dry strands back to life. Infused with nourishing argan oil, softening apricot oil, conditioning sea buckthorn oil and coconut oil to help lock in moisture.

  1. Lips need love too

Intensely moisturise your lips with our natural CBD Infused Lip Balm containing cocoa and avocado butter. The combination of the butters and oils provides deep hydration, helping to soften and prevent chapped lips. It also has the scent of summer: fresh peppermint.
