If summer heat and humidity leave your skin feeling congested, a splash of Round Lab’s 1025 Dokdo Toner lightly exfoliates without the sting: Protease enzymes loosen dead skin cells, while sugarcane-derived AHAs refine texture for smoother, brighter-looking skin. Its namesake ingredient—mineral-rich deep-sea water sourced near Korea's Dokdo region—is naturally packed with skin-balancing minerals like magnesium and calcium. Meanwhile, glycerin, panthenol, and allantoin keep skin hydrated and supported, making this toner a favorite among sensitive and eczema-prone skin types, too.

I’m From Rice Toner

The Ulta Big Summer Beauty Sale features yet another K-beauty favorite: I’m From’s Rice Toner. If your skin has been looking a little dull, dehydrated, or uneven after long days in the sun, this milky toner is here to restore your glow. The star ingredient is rice extract sourced from the nutrient-rich outer layer of rice, which contains antioxidants like vitamin E and ferulic acid to defend against environmental stressors. Niacinamide brightens and evens tone, while adenosine supports skin repair and barrier health. “This instantly plumps my skin, giving it a brighter, refreshed look and prepping it for the serums, moisturizers, and sunscreens to follow," says Sarah Han, commerce editor.

Pattern Hydration Shampoo

People tend to think of dry hair as a winter problem, but between summer sun, salt water, and chlorine, parched strands really don't take a season off. Pattern’s Hydration Shampoo is a creamy cleanser that washes away buildup while replenishing moisture. A nourishing combination of argan, coconut, avocado, jojoba, and sweet almond oils softens and smooths, while aloe vera, honey, and glycerin draw in hydration to keep hair feeling supple. ”Once I'm done washing my hair, it creates the perfect base for a well-moisturized style,” says creative producer Sydney Malone.
