Glowing Skin Starts with a Plan
Your Summer Skin Strategy:
Layering, Repairing & Protecting at Altitude
If you live in Tahoe, you already know: the sun is stronger, the air is drier, and your skin isn’t quite sure what hit it once summer rolls in.
Hydration, barrier repair, and antioxidant protection are non-negotiable - but that doesn’t mean your routine has to be complicated.
We’ll discuss how to keep your skin calm, resilient, and radiant all summer long.
Altitude Affects Skin More Than You Think
Higher elevation = thinner atmosphere = more UV exposure. The UV increases 6-10% for every 1,000ft gain.
Plus, Tahoe’s dry climate means your skin is losing moisture faster than it can replenish itself.
You might notice:
Flakiness or tightness after washing
Redness or inflammation from sun or wind
Your favorite products suddenly feel too light — or not absorbing at all
These are all signs that your barrier needs some support. Let’s reset.
How to Layer for Hydration + Protection
Your routine doesn’t need to be 10 steps. Just intentional.
Try this 3-part am protocol, after a gentle cleanse:
Step 1: Mist or Elixir First
We love Laurel’s Hydrating Elixir I — it soothes, strengthens, and infuses botanical hydration.
Step 2: Lock it in
Follow with Sorella’s Main Squeeze or Laurel’s Recovery Balm to seal in moisture and rebuild your barrier.
Step 3: Don’t Skip SPF
Sorella’s Quench & Protect is hydrating, non-greasy, and gives you broad-spectrum coverage without clogging pores. Reapply every 2-4 hours.
