How To Keep Glowing Summer Skin All Year Long

Posted by Sam Gomez on

Summer has officially come to an end which means fall is finally here! This means cozy sweaters, crisp air, leaves falling, and changing colors. Along with all this unfortunately comes dry skin. Dryness is common in the fall because of cold weather, dry air, and indoor heating. If you're wondering how to maintain that summertime glow look no further! We’re excited to share some secrets for keeping that radiant skin all year long!



Cleansing your skin:

An extra boost of hydration is necessary during these colder months! Cleansing your skin is an essential first step when it comes to building a skin/body care routine! It removes dirt, oil, and makeup that can clog pores and cause breakouts. When choosing a cleanser it’s good to choose one that contains clean ingredients, especially for those with sensitive or dry skin that might react to harsh products. Our signature Cactus Soaps are handmade with skin-nourishing plant butters and oils that cleanse but do not dry out your skin. Since our soaps have no synthetic fragrance or dye they can be used on your whole body AND face!  

We offer a variety of cactus soaps to fit everyone's preferences and skin concerns. 

It’s essential to pick products that work for you! If you're having a little trouble deciding which one of our Cactus Soaps is best for you. We created this guide to help you pick which is best for your skin type!


Noche Clara (black soap): Good for oily / acne-prone skin. Charcoal provides the gentlest exfoliation. The subtle scent of sage and eucalyptus oil.


Planta Futura (green soap): Good for all skin types. The subtle scent of lemongrass oil brings clarity of mind.


Flor De Mayo (pink soap): Good for sensitive and dry skin. Pink clay creates a creamy lather. Allow the subtle scent of Jasmine oil to anoint your body. 


Exfoliating regularly:

Exfoliating, in the simplest terms, is the process of removing dead skin cells. Exfoliating also improves circulation and overall skin tone by encouraging healthy blood flow to all areas of the body. It's important to use a gentle exfoliant at least once or twice a week.

Our Cactus Flower Exfoliants can be used twice a week, but are gentle enough to use daily. Since our exfoliants are soap-free this means your skin will be left silky smooth( no need to apply moisturizer afterward).  We offer two scents options for the Cactus Flower Exfoliants, Hibiscus, and Mandarina. Remember both exfoliants work great and one isn’t better than the other. Each Cactus Flower Exfoliant has different properties and scents. 

Cactus Flower Exfoliant-Hibiscus has a delicious blend of grapefruit and jasmine essential oils. The exfoliant's purple color is naturally occurring from the hibiscus flower. 

Cactus Flower Exfoliant-Mandarina has a subtle scent of tangerine oil which helps to awaken the spirit.


Hydrating your skin during the fall:

Moisturizing is a top priority in order to keep your skin hydrated! Use a quality moisturizer to keep your skin soft and healthy. This is especially important in the fall or when you may be spending more time indoors than outside in cold temperatures that can dry out your skin. You should be moisturizing daily—it will help keep your skin hydrated and prevent dryness. 

Our Moisturizing Botanical Bars are uniquely formulated with plant butters, oils, and Mexican botanicals to bring deep hydration to the skin. It’s great for moisturizing your hands, dry legs, arms, feet, and even lips! It’s extremely versatile and will give your skin that instant summer glow that's much needed in these colder months. Not only does our Botanical bar keep your skin hydrated but it’s an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic bottles of lotions! It comes in a gorgeous reusable/recyclable tin for safe storage.  Both bars contain Nopal oil (prickly pear oil) that comes from the seeds of the cactus fruit, or “tuna”. It has a high concentration of Vitamin E, K., and omega fatty acids that promote healthy skin.
