Summer’s right around the corner…Whether you’re planning the trip of a lifetime or your priority is just soaking up the sun, you’re probably looking for ways to make the absolute best of it—and to be your absolute best self! At ELLA, we’re about more than just luxurious affordable skincare: we believe that every day is an opportunity to improve and to grow into the best selves we can be, inside and out. Here are our top 5 summer glow up tips.
ELLA’s Summer Glow Up Tip #1: Stick to Your Routines (Especially Skincare!) Summer is the perfect time to kick back and take it easy, but take it from us: routines just make life better. We’re not talking about turning your holidays into an army drill, but keeping to a set routine can help you:
- Be better prepared. It’s common sense that when you have a routine and you’re organized, it’s easier to plan. Whether than means sticking to your trip itinerary to get the most out of it or just keeping your living space zen, it’s easier to get up and go when you stick to your routines.
- Stick to healthy habits. It’s hard to stick to health habits when everything’s up in the air. It’s easy to indulge in the summer (and that’s a good thing!)—but having a solid routine means that you have something to come back to, whether that’s a typical way of eating, an exercise habit or a favourite skincare ritual.
No matter what your routines are, they’re part of what makes you you! Our top routine tip for your summer glow-up? Get sunscreen into your morning skincare routine, every day! And don’t forget to re-apply.

ELLA’s Summer Glow Up Tip #2: Let Go of What Isn’t Serving You. The sun’s out, the air’s warm, the days are long, and everything is blooming. Who has time to hold on to grudges and regrets? As you head out to find ways to enjoy the summer, remember to shake off what isn’t serving you like you’d shake sand out of a beach towel. Enjoying the moment and liking who you are today is the key to confidence, fun and making good memories.
Need to let go of dry, flaky skin? If you’re feeling a bit dull and dry ahead of the summer, it might not be bad energy holding you back. ELLA’s Rainbow Soufflé Salt Scrub is a great way to gently exfoliate your skin while nurturing it. This rich, luxurious scrub is an exfoliant for all skin types that you’ll fall in love with. Made with Dead Sea salt and wafting citrus and lavender, it’s sure to get your mind just as ready for summer as your body.
ELLA’s Summer Glow Up Tip #3: Take Time to Relax Starting to sense a pattern? Glowing up isn’t just about what you do physically. It’s mainly about the way you live your life, and the way you take care of yourself!
If you’ve got a summer adventure list as long as your arm, first off, good for you! Secondly, don’t forget to take time out to just enjoy. One of the most overlooked secrets of glow-ups is that relaxing is a super important part, and letting go of stress is just as important as making memories. For some people, intentionally relaxing can mean taking time out of every day for meditation or yoga. For others, it can mean incorporating a bit of luxury in their weekly routine.
Looking for luxurious affordable skincare products to incorporate in your beauty and relaxation routine? Ella’s Blue Agave Masque will whisk you away, even if you’re already in the tropics. This nourishing formula uses the antimicrobial properties of blue agave to promote clean skin and help tighten and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
So this summer, take a few deep cleansing breaths, and let ELLA’s low-cost luxury skincare collection help you enjoy the moment.
ELLA’s Summer Glow Up Tip #4: Don’t Be Afraid to Explore Trying new things is the spice of life, and it doesn’t need to mean breaking the bank or travelling to the ends of the earth! Discovering new things is good for your mental health; it’s also a great way to inject novelty into your summer.
How does trying new things help with your summer glow-up? Crucially, trying new things helps you build confidence. It’s also just a great way to find new things that you like, and to find what works best for you, whether it’s new meals, new workouts, new music, new friends, or new hobbies! Trust us: openness to new experiences is one of the best summer glow-up tips out there.

ELLA’s Summer Glow Up Tip #5: Focus on You This one means different things to different people. For some, it’s just carving out a bit of extra time in the day for themselves; for others, it can mean starting all over again. Whatever it means for you, focusing on yourself is the most important glow-up tip of them all. Here are a few ways this can appear:
- Avoiding comparison with others
- Nourishing your own interests and hobbies
- Setting healthy boundaries
- Keeping your priorities in sight
Glowing up means a lot of things to a lot of people—but at the end of the day, it’s not just about having a physical transformation. Glowing up is a mindset. With these glow up tips, you’ll be ready to take on the world (or even just the beach) as your best self.
