There’s a reason people leave Los Cabos looking radiant. Maybe it’s the sunshine, maybe it’s the slower pace, maybe it’s the ocean air — or maybe it’s the simple fact that Cabo forces you to take better care of yourself.

But the truth is: Cabo’s beauty glow doesn’t happen by accident.
You’re dealing with strong sun, salty water, and dry desert air — a combination that can either transform your skin… or stress it out.

Here’s how to get (and keep!) that signature Cabo Glow.

Hydrate Like It’s Your Full-Time Job

The Baja sun is no joke — even if it feels soft and breezy on vacation.
Dry air + saltwater + sun exposure = thirsty skin.

The golden rule for glowing Cabo skin:
hydrate before, during, and after the beach.

Think:
✔ water with electrolytes
✔ hydrating sprays
✔ aloe gel
✔ hyaluronic acid serums

Your skin will drink it up.

Oil Is Your Best Friend Here

Between the sun and the dry air, your skin loses moisture FAST.
A lightweight face oil or nourishing body oil gives you that dewy, vacation glow while protecting your skin barrier.

Bonus: It makes every sunset photo look professionally edited.

Rinse the Salt Off Immediately

As fun as the beach days are, saltwater sticks to your skin and dries it out.
The minute you get back to your villa or hotel, do a quick rinse — even if it’s just water.

Then apply:
✔ a calming aloe or cactus gel
✔ moisturizer
✔ SPF (yes, again)

Your skin will thank you later.

 Use Cabo’s Natural Ingredients to Your Advantage

Cabo’s botanicals are famous in the beauty world because they thrive in harsh conditions… and help your skin do the same.

Look for products featuring:

• Aloe vera (soothing + hydrating)

• Nopal cactus (calms redness)

• Agave extract (deep hydration)

• Sea salt + minerals (gentle exfoliation)

It’s local, clean, and your skin loves it.

SPF 50 Is Not Optional — It’s Mandatory

The Cabo sun is strongest from 11 AM–3 PM, but it’s powerful all day.
To keep your skin glowing (not burnt):

✔ Use SPF 50 for face and body
✔ Reapply every 2 hours
✔ Wear hats + sunglasses
✔ Choose makeup products with SPF built in

The “Cabo Glow” should never come from a sunburn.

Treat Yourself to a Facial While You’re Here

Cabo’s wellness scene is known for hydrating, glow-boosting facials designed specifically for desert climates.

Most popular options:
✔ oxygen facials
✔ hydra facials
✔ vitamin C brightening
✔ aloe + mineral hydration treatments

A single session can reverse days of sun + saltwater.

 Nighttime Is When Your Glow Happens

Your skin repairs itself while you sleep — and in Cabo, nighttime skincare hits even better.

Before bed:
✔ rinse off salt, sand, and SPF
✔ apply hyaluronic acid
✔ lock in moisture with a night cream or oil
✔ sip water (yes, again)

You’ll wake up looking like a different person — in the best way.
