Yes, we're ready for glowing Spring skin... we call it "Springcare"
It's Spring, and in this season it's all about new growth, freshness, and a gentle + clean reset. Mother Nature is re-setting and renewing with the growing buds, grasses, and trees that are blossoming and flourishing all around us.
Your skin in the Spring will love a renewal, too. The complexion might feel a little different with the added humidity and rising temperatures. We want to make sure the pores stay clean and our skin stays clear and radiant ... without breakouts or skin sensitivities.
The sun is getting stronger ~ ☀️ ~ it's time to cleanse, nourish, and protect with active ingredients that help without the harm.
Let's take a look at our skincare remedies to see if you need to 'spring it up' to keep skin healthy and looking its best.
Hydrating Toning Water, Lavender Botanical Nectar Natural Perfume & Aromatherapy, Honey Cream Mask with Active Manuka, Ultra Garden Serum for Body.
🌱 Springcare Steps 1 and 2 🌱
Cleansing and Exfoliating
Warmer weather and higher humidity levels can make skin feel a little oilier than usual. An oil cleanser is the best way to combat clogged pores and impurities. It removes excess oil, makeup, sunscreen, sweat, and dirt without over-stripping our skin.
Our cleansing oils leave skin fresh, soft, and clean without feeling tight. The phytonutrients and essential oils not only cleanse the skin, they balance the sebum production. Our cleansers actually benefit skin instead of stripping skin.
A proper and gentle exfoliation is like a true spring cleaning for the skin with immediate results. Our skin might look a little dull after the winter months. Buffing away the dead, invisible layer of skin cells helps the nourishing toners and serums to penetrate more effectively. Pores are cleansed, cleared-out, and they'll appear smaller. Removing the dead skin cells gives the skin a smooth and brightening appearance.
Last month we highlighted our exfoliants. If you'd like refresher, click here for tips from that blog.

🌱 Springcare Tips 3 and 4 🌱
Toning and Moisturizing
Makeup is an option.
Skincare is not.
In our opinion, this couldn't be more true.
Whether or not you're a makeup wearer, having an invisible layer of skincare under makeup or sunscreen is 100% beneficial in helping to keep our skin supple, moisturized, and nourished throughout the day.
The same goes for nighttime when our skin and body regenerates. Having a layer of moisture on our skin while we earn our beauty sleep is like a boost of skin vitamins without us having to do anything. 💪
The first layer of treatment that rests directly on the skin is the botanical toning water. Each of our toners is comprised of 100% organic plant waters (0% tap or filtered water) that provides a light antioxidant protection while setting the perfect pH for our skin. The toners also help the serums spread and penetrate effectively.
Next is the option of adding a vitamin serum boost - see our starter kit here. 100% clean, pure, and authentic, our serum boosts are free of water, free of synthetic preservatives, and free of synthetic powdered vitamins.
The icing on the cake, which is like the serum on our skin (see where we're going with this 😉🎂) is the 'top coat' of the day or night serum. The carrot, cranberry, and raspberry oils in our day serums have proven UVA and UVB properties that fight premature aging to help prevent hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and wrinkles. Our serums act like an invisible and beneficial veil that absorbs into the skin. This is exactly what serums are known for and why they're so effective.
This top layered day serum is protective for the skin, and it acts differently than a mineral sunscreen that reflects the rays. We have that covered as well. Check out our natural sunscreen below. 👇
🌱 Springcare Tip 5 🌱
An All Natural, Water Free, Oil Free, Wax Free, and Synthetic Free Sunscreen
We do love the sunshine, and our skin relies on us 100% to care for it.
If you haven't tried it yet, you'll quickly see that our Mineral Sunscreen Serum Boost is different, it's very clean and concentrated, and you'll need less than you think to achieve 30 SPF.
It feels light on the skin, it blends in, and it can be layered under makeup or alone on the skin. You'll need only 1-3 well shaken drops for the face, adding just one drop at a time to moisturized skin.
After applying your toner and day serum, this clean and concentrated sunscreen adds full broad spectrum protection from both UVA (the aging rays) and UVB (the burning) rays.
🌞 One to three well shaken drops will cover your complexion... one drop for the forehead, one drop for the nose and cheek areas, and one drop for the chin and neck. Another drop added to any exposed skin on the chest is lovely as well!
Our non-nano zinc oxide is a pure and natural safe mineral. Our sunscreen is reef and water safe and is naturally water resistant on our skin. For daily wear it has great staying power, and there's usually no need to reapply it during the day.
So many different layers of care... all clean, authentic, and performing with proven natural ingredients.
Hair & Root Boosting Oil, Lip Balm with Green Tea & Vitamins.
Like a Freshly Baked Birthday Treat 😉🍰
In each of our treatments, you'll find that every ingredient is fresh.
Every ingredient is sourced organically, authentically, or is wildcrafted.
Every ingredient is included for its purity and performance.

As all of us at Qēt Botanicals celebrate our 12th brandiversary, I also celebrate my 58th birthday! 😊
Backing up many years, it was my autoimmune, Rosacea, thyroid issues, and various skin and hair health concerns that led me to years of development, research, and formulating care products behind closed doors. I knew I couldn't go back to stale and synthetically produced products, and I knew that many of my friends were looking for clean care alternatives as well.
Finally, we were ready to share our more than 50 care products. I felt that the perfect time to share our fresh and unique treatments was on my 46th birthday, April 1st of 2013. So yes... that's what I did!
It's been a labor of love since day one. Now our Qēt treats are here for all of us enjoy those few moments of self care in a healthy and natural way. We won't compromise our health for the sake of beauty, and keeping our ingredients safe, pure, and performing is important for all of us.
My photos below show the before and after of my skin with Qēt. On the outside, it's obvious to see the results. On the inside, the peace of mind and benefits are just as important.
We all have skin, and we all have choices to make every day. Thank you for being a part of our Qēt community, and thank you for helping us all make a difference! 💚 🌎
Cheers to You, and Cheers to 12 Years!

Below: On the left... my skin in my early 40s and the reason that I developed Qēt Botanicals in the first place. Rosacea, hormonal and adult acne, sensitive skin, thyroid swings, inflammation and redness like crazy, and wrinkles and acne at the same time (how does that even happen?!). On the right... my skin in my late 50s. It's the struggles and journeys like these that make us smarter about our choices and our overall health.
