More Than Skincare
I was simply a mum looking for gentle, age-appropriate skincare for my own daughter.
When my daughter entered her tween years, I quickly realised there wasn't much available that felt right. Products were either designed for adults, packed with harsh ingredients, or complicated enough to make starting a skincare routine feel overwhelming.
I wanted something different.
Something gentle enough for growing skin, simple enough to use every day, and beautiful enough that teens would actually enjoy reaching for it.
When I couldn't find it, I decided to create it.
Created by a Mum. Made for Growing Skin.
Summer Rayes was born in beautiful North Queensland, inspired by our love of the ocean, nature and the confidence that comes from feeling comfortable in your own skin.
Today, every Summer Rayes product is thoughtfully formulated in Australia using gentle fruit enzymes, Australian botanicals and carefully selected ingredients designed specifically for teen and tween skin.
Our routines are intentionally simple because we believe healthy skincare habits should be easy to build and enjoyable to follow.
Everything we create is vegan, cruelty-free and free from harsh ingredients, giving parents confidence while helping teens care for their skin with products made especially for this important stage of life.
As both a founder and a mum, every product is one I would happily choose for my own family because that's exactly where Summer Rayes began.
Our Promise
Teenage years are filled with enough changes already. Skincare shouldn't be another source of stress.
Our promise is to create gentle Australian skincare that supports growing skin without unnecessary complexity, harsh ingredients or unrealistic promises.
We don't believe in chasing perfect skin. We believe in helping tweens and teens build healthy skincare habits, feel confident in their own skin and enjoy simple routines they'll want to use every day.
Confidence doesn't begin with flawless skin. It begins with knowing you're taking care of yourself with products made just for you.
Thank you for letting Summer Rayes become a small part of your family's journey.
With love,
Nikki xx
Founder, Summer Rayes
