If you know me, you know I love a good beach day. But one thing I never leave home without? My after-sun recovery routine. These are my go-to skincare heroes when I’m traveling, hiking, or just spending too much time outside with Mia.
Because let’s be honest—your skin can look cute and still be stressed out underneath. Here’s how I reset my glow after a full day in the sun (and yes, these are in my beach bag).
Step 1: Double Cleanse the Day Away
KrX Glow Gel Cleanser
📍 Cantaloupe, Pineapple, Primrose, Citrus, and Sugar Maple Extracts
After sunscreen, sweat, sand, and makeup—your skin needs a proper cleanse that doesn't strip it.
Cantaloupe + Pineapple enzymes: Gently exfoliate and dissolve buildup
Evening Primrose: Soothes sensitivity (especially after UV exposure)
Citrus + Sugar Maple Extracts: Rich in antioxidants to help repair sun damage
I use this twice: once to melt off the day, then again to deeply cleanse the skin. It leaves me feeling clean, soft, and never dry.

Step 2: Swipe on Soothing Toner Pads
Corthe Essential Soothing Facial Toner Pads
📍 Aloe Vera, Centella Asiatica (Cica), and Panthenol
These are soaked in a calming botanical solution that instantly cools and comforts the skin. I always keep mine in the ice chest when I’m out and about.
Aloe Vera: Rehydrates and reduces redness
Cica (Centella Asiatica): Helps repair the skin barrier + calm irritation
Panthenol: Deeply hydrates and protects from dryness
They're individually packed, easy to throw in your bag, and perfect for after the sun. Swipe across your skin the second you get home—or right on the beach if you’re feeling crispy.

Step 3: Mist On a Full-Face Mask
KrX Jelly Mist Spray-On Gel Mask
📍 Ginseng Flower Ferment, Ceramide NP, Centella Asiatica
Think of this as your sheet mask in a bottle—but better. It’s lightweight, super hydrating, and gives that fresh, dewy look without having to sit still for 20 minutes.
Ginseng Flower Ferment: Brightens and revives tired, sun-drenched skin
Ceramide NP: Rebuilds and locks in hydration
Cica: Again, we love her—calms heat + inflammation
I spray this on right before bed and let it do its thing overnight. Waking up glowy? Yes, please.

💡Maria’s Post-Sun Travel Tip
Put the toner pads and jelly mist in your cooler or mini fridge. When you get back from the beach or pool, swipe the chilled toner across your face and spray the mist right after. It’s like giving your skin a spa day while you unpack your beach bag.
The Full After-Sun Routine:
Double Cleanse – KrX Glow Gel Cleanser
Tone + Calm – Corthe Soothing Pads (chilled if you can)
Hydrate + Repair – KrX Jelly Mist (sleep mask optional, but encouraged)
Because vacations should feel good—and your skin deserves to feel good too.
