How to Build a Body Skincare Routine That Works Year-Round

Body Skincare Routine for Smooth, Clear, Glowing Skin

Most of us have a skincare routine for our face—but your body deserves that same level of attention every day of the year. Whether you're headed on vacation or just trying to keep dry skin, body breakouts, and dullness at bay, a consistent body care routine makes all the difference. Here's how to treat your body skin like a pro—with exfoliation, hydration, and a natural glow that doesn’t come from the sun.

Step 1: Exfoliate with a Body Peel (Not a Scrub)

Scrubs can be abrasive and uneven, leaving micro-tears and redness behind. Our TCA Multi-Acid Body Peel gently dissolves dead skin cells using a blend of lactic, glycolic, and salicylic acids. It softens bumpy texture, clears body acne (especially bacne), and fades dark spots—without the harshness of physical exfoliants.

  • ✨ Smooths rough patches
  • ✨ Brightens uneven tone
  • ✨ Fades keratosis pilaris and breakouts (including bacne)
  • ✨ Rids bacne and body acne

Step 2: Hydrate + Glow with Body Serum + Tanning Drops

Once your skin is exfoliated, it's primed to absorb active ingredients. Our Hydrating Body Serum is lightweight, fast-absorbing, and packed with firming peptides, olive squalane, and antioxidants.

Want a tan without the sun? Mix your favorite self-tanning drops directly into the Hydrating Body Serum for a natural-looking, buildable glow. It's your moisturizer and tanner in one—perfect for daily use or vacation.

Step 3: Maintain Your Results (Even on Vacation)

Healthy body skin is all about consistency. Use your body peel 1–2x per week, and reapply hydrating body serum + tanning drops combo as needed to maintain your glow without the harmful UV rays. This easy 2-product routine keeps your skin looking glowy, hydrated, and clear no matter the season.

  • ✔️ Perfect pre-vacation prep
  • ✔️ Helps extend self-tan longevity
  • ✔️ Prevents dry, flaky skin year-round

What to Pack for Vacation-Ready Skin

  • TCA Body Peel – For even exfoliation and brightening
  • Hydrating Body Serum – Lightweight hydration that layers beautifully
  • Self-tanning drops – Add into your serum for a custom glow

Skip the sun—and the sunburn. This routine gives you a healthy glow without UV damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I use the TCA Body Peel?

1–2 times per week is ideal. Start with once a week and increase as your skin adjusts.

Can I apply body oil after the peel?

Yes! After the peel has fully dried, layer a body oil on top to seal in moisture and boost glow.

Can I use tanning drops right after exfoliating?

We recommend waiting 24 hours after using the body peel before applying tanning drops for best, most even results.

Will the peel make my skin flake?

You may experience light flaking, especially on dry areas like shins or arms. This is normal and means the peel is working.

Can I travel with these products?

Yes. The serum is TSA-friendly and the peel can be packed in checked luggage. Both are great for vacation prep and maintenance.
