KEY TAKEAWAYS: Summer skin services are in–but which should you add to your esthetician service menu before sunny season is over? In this article, we'll break down some must-know, must-add services to your summer skin service rotation so you never miss a chance to serve your clients best.
Offering the best skin treatment services estheticians should provide during summer can boost client satisfaction and keep your business thriving. Hydrating facials, sun-protection treatments, and other summer-specific services help clients maintain healthy, glowing skin all season. Check out this guide for top treatment ideas to keep your clients’ skin refreshed and protected through the summer heat.
As an esthetician or spa professional, you probably already know summertime is all about skin—protecting it from the sun, ensuring it’s glowing, and making sure your clients look as good as they feel. To give your clients that coveted summer skin, it’s vital you’re providing them with those summer skin services they need!
Not sure what to add on for this sunshine season? We’ve got you covered! Here are a few last-minute must-adds to your spa service list for summertime clients!
HydraFacials
First things first, let’s make a point here that you already know—there’s no such thing as a bad type of facial out there.
Whichever type of facial you’re offering right now, it’s undoubtedly going to help your clients attain a semblance of that bright, glowing, summer skin they’re craving. But, have you considered a hydrafacial?
Think about summer for a second. It’s hot and dry, right?.
That’s where the hydrafacial comes in. This super effective moisturizing procedure is designed to send all types of hydration to your clients’ faces—it’s customizable, quick, and can help with all sorts of skin issues (fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, elasticity, etc.), not just dry, flaky, patchy skin.
Airbrush Tans
Everyone loves the look of a beautiful, bronzed tan all over—but as a skin specialist, you know just how incredibly damaging and dangerous the sun’s harmful rays can be. Instead of advising your clients to hop out into the sunshine for that brown-n-bronze look, offer airbrush tanning services at your spa for the summer.
This service provides your clients with all the benefits of getting a great summer skin look without any of the damage.
The best part? Your sunless tanner can be crafted with things that help your clients with their summer skin—we’re talking antioxidants, pure botanicals, and all-natural ingredients that will benefit them entirely!
Exfoliating Body Scrubs
Nothing solves the skin blues like an all over body scrub—and nothing does the trick like a sugar, salt, or enzyme body scrub. Work with your clients to determine the type of exfoliating treatment that works best for their skin.
Exfoliation, as you know, is the key to removing dead skin and impurities to help clean up skin, but also leaves your clients’ skin looking healthy, glowing, and fresh!
A little tip? If you can get into the summer spirit with a little tropical scrub (we’re thinking pineapple enzyme scrubs, people), do it! Nothing says summer skin like a little splash of tropical magic in their scrub.

Detox Wraps & Masks
Help your clients pull out those harmful toxins in their skin leftover from winter with an all-over body detox wrap! Treat them with a fun massage at the end to stimulate blood flow and add on some serious hydration for the summer skin glow they’ve been craving!
Whole Body O2 Treatments
Sure, a hydrafacial can tackle that issue in a pinch, but if your clients are looking to moisturize their entire bodies, eliminate stored toxins in their skin, and get rid of that excess dryness, there’s nothing like an O2 Body Treatment.
This experience is meant to be both revitalizing and oxygenating.
By using purifying ingredients as well as antioxidant-rich products, your clients can count on an all-over skin moisturizing experience that helps to solve severe dryness, prevent premature aging issues, help deliver maximum elasticity, and even provide that last-minute boost of perky hydration your clients need before they throw in their itty bitty bikinis before the end of summer.
Stay Protected: Liability Insurance is a Must for Estheticians This Summer
As summer ramps up, so does the demand for skin services like hydrafacials, airbrush tans, and detox wraps. While these treatments can boost your business, they also carry risks—such as allergic reactions, skin sensitivities, or other unexpected issues.
Here’s why liability insurance is important:
- Financial Protection: Liability insurance covers legal fees and settlements if a client experiences an adverse reaction or injury from one of your services.
- Peace of Mind: With coverage in place, you can focus on delivering great results without worrying about potential claims.
Protect your business and your peace of mind with liability insurance for estheticians.
