Welcome to Summer Skin Prep
Can you believe we’ve already left the first season of 2025 behind?
If it feels like this year is flying by, you’re not alone. With summer around the corner, it’s time to prep for beach days, poolside lounging, and sun-kissed skin.
But before you dive into the sunshine, let’s talk about the one thing most people skip (and regret): prepping your skin the right way.
Why Exfoliating Before Sun Exposure Is a Game-Changer
Forget the flakiness. Exfoliating before you hit the sun helps you:
- Get a smoother, more even tan
- Prevent clogged pores and dullness
- Avoid painful scrubbing after sunburn
This practice is rooted in the Turkish Hamam, one of the world’s oldest self-care rituals.
Start with Steam – The First Step of the Hamam Ritual
Before exfoliating, your skin needs to be warmed up. Enter the steam room.
Steaming softens dead skin cells and opens your pores, creating the ideal canvas for exfoliation.
Wrap yourself in one of our ultra-light, quick-drying Peshtemals, the original Turkish towels designed for this very purpose.
Unlike bulky terry towels, peshtemals trap moisture on your skin—not in the fabric—so you stay warmer, longer, and your skin stays prepped.
Second Step- Exfoliate with the Power of Mulberry Silk
After a good steam, it’s time to exfoliate using a traditional Kese.
Our 100% mulberry silk kese is:
- All-natural and plastic-free
- Tough on dead skin but gentle on your body
- The most effective exfoliator we’ve ever tried (and trust us—we’ve tried a lot)
This essential Turkish bath tool leaves your skin silky smooth, refreshed, and glowing—just in time for summer.
Last but not least- Cleanse with Natural Olive Soap
With your pores open and fresh skin revealed, it’s time to cleanse.
- Gently remove impurities and any remaining dead skin
- Nourish with natural antioxidants and vitamins
- Lock in moisture and keep your skin soft
Made from pure, skin-loving ingredients, it’s the perfect way to end your ritual and start glowing.
