The Summer Glow Tools Everyone Should Consider In 2026

IN THIS ARTICLE

As we welcome longer, warmer days, it’s easy to forget the extra stress this seasonal shift can place on the skin. More time spent outdoors is a tonic for general wellbeing, but it can lead to the build-up of sweat, pollution and sunscreen residue on the skin’s surface. Then there’s the increased exposure to UVA and UVB rays, which triggers oxidative stress in the skin, generating free radicals that can contribute to inflammation, sensitivity and signs of premature ageing.

So, what’s the answer? A summer skincare routine that supports deep cleansing and recovery, allowing the hydrating, antioxidant skincare that follows to work more effectively. That’s where advanced at-home treatments come into their own. From steam cleansing and red light therapy to more body-focused devices designed to sculpt and smooth, they offer clinical-level benefits to help skin stay balanced through seasonal change. Read on to discover the essential summer skincare tools for your face and body, and the summer glow tips that promise a more radiant-looking you.

Best Red Light Therapy Panel for Full-Body Skin Prep: LumaLux Dome Face & Body LED Red Light Therapy Device

One of the most effective summer body tools you can invest in – and one that earns its place in your skincare routine all year round – is an LED red light device. Red light therapy uses targeted wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to support cellular repair processes, calming visible inflammation and promoting a healthier-looking complexion. In the summer, skin below the neck is equally exposed to UV, heat and inflammation, making full-body LED treatment especially useful.

Project E’s wide range of devices allows you to target every inch of your body with ease. The LumaLux Dome Face & Body LED Red Light Therapy Device uses the same standout multi-wavelength LED technology as its facial counterparts, with a curved design that provides broader coverage for larger treatment areas such as the legs, stomach and back.

Best Products for Exfoliating: Gloa Face and Body Cleansing Brush

Exfoliating your skin for summer can feel like an easy step to skip when you’re concerned about sensitivity following sun exposure, but a topical cleanser often isn’t enough to deep-clean pores and avoid congestion-causing breakouts. What’s required is a cleansing routine that doesn’t strip away the skin’s lipid layer, which plays a vital role in keeping moisture in and environmental nasties out. The Gloa Face and Body Cleansing Brush uses sonic cleansing technology to help lift deep-seated impurities without compromising the skin barrier. This makes it especially useful during summer, when excess SPF, sweat and environmental pollutants can leave skin looking dull and congested. It comes with three brush heads for full-face and body treatment and can be used 2–3 times a week, head-to-toe, as part of your summer self-care ritual.

Best for Gentle Cleansing: Sensa Nano Ionic Facial Steamer

During summer months, the Sensa Nano Ionic Facial Steamer provides the perfect skin reset. Its ultra-fine steam helps loosen impurities and soften congestion before cleansing, while also preparing skin to absorb skincare products more effectively. With skin decongested, the treatment serums that follow can penetrate the surface layers more effectively, optimising their hydrating and rejuvenating capabilities when your complexion needs it most.

Best LED Mask for Glowing Skin: LumaLux Face+ | Pro LED Red Light Therapy Face & Neck Mask

As summer brings stronger UV rays, the areas of our skin most exposed to the sun need extra attention and care. The  LumaLux Face +  does more than just help prepare your skin for harsh sun exposure; it also includes an additional attachment designed to treat the often-overlooked neck and décolleté area during your skincare routine. 

Best for Body Sculpting: BodySculpt LED RF Beauty System

While there’s no ideal body shape, many people struggle with the same “problem areas” when it comes to body confidence: arms, thighs, waist and stomach being the most common. The BodySculpt LED RF Beauty System is a multi-technology body device that combines radio frequency, red LED light and ultrasound technology to support firmer-looking skin and smoother body texture at home. It’s designed to be used 2–3 times a week after showering, with a conductive gel to help the energy transfer evenly across the skin. It works by delivering gentle thermal and sonic energy across the skin’s surface, helping support circulation, encourage collagen activity and improve the appearance of uneven texture over time.

The Best Tool to Depuff: Ice Roller Cryotherapy Treatment

You may have seen a rise in facial icing across social media, and the Ice Roller Cryotherapy Treatment brings that same cooling ritual into a more practical skincare solution. This handheld tool lends itself to warmer-weather skin prep, when the heat can leave skin feeling flushed and puffy. Stored in the freezer, the roller delivers instant cryotherapy benefits by helping to reduce temporary puffiness, calm redness, and minimise the appearance of pores, while also giving skin a fresher, more wide-awake appearance. The recommended use is around 10 minutes, especially in the morning or before makeup application.

Summer Skincare Tips to Stay Safe

SPF is one of the best anti-ageing ingredients in the world, but there are some caveats. The last layer of your summer glow skin prep routine should always end with a ‘broad-spectrum’ sunscreen, with a minimum SPF30 UVB screen (which protects against sunburn and skin cancer), alongside a good UVA screen (which protects against ageing and skin cancer). How can you tell if your UVA protection is good enough? Look for at least four stars or three pluses next to it on the bottle. Reapplication throughout the day is equally important, especially after sweating, swimming or prolonged time outdoors.

Lightweight hydrating products are especially important in summer to avoid congestion in humid conditions. Reach for gel moisturisers, hydrating serums and water-based formulas to help maintain moisture without overloading the skin. Ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, glycerin and aloe vera can support hydration while keeping your skin feeling fresh and balanced. Antioxidants are a real bonus – applying the likes of ferulic acid, green tea and vitamin C topically can help to neutralise the damaging free radicals that may have slipped through the SPF net.
