Summer Fridays earns strong reviews for delivering hydrating, glow-giving staples—especially the viral Lip Butter Balm and Jet Lag Mask—which many say keep lips plush for hours and revive dry, travel-worn skin. Reviews also flag meaningful drawbacks: several users report irritation or breakouts (including reactions to Jet Lag and eye formulas), divisive scents and stickiness in some lip shades, very sheer base products, and packaging gripes, making the brand feel overhyped or not worth it for some.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
Tried out the jet lag mask this winter, and I really liked the consistency — super smooth and it absorbed quickly. It definitely did a great job keeping my skin hydrated and protected from the cold. That said, it didn’t feel particularly unique, and once I finished the tube, I wasn’t in a rush to repurchase. Solid product, but not a game-changer for me.
I’ve been searching for a new face mist and I bought the Summer Friday Jet Lag Skin Soothing Hydration Mist based on the number of good reviews it had. I think the product is fine but I don’t love the mister. Each spray seems like it sprays a lot of product but it’s a balance figuring out how far away to hold the bottle. The product is rapidly emptying but my face doesn’t feel quenched. Because the mist is either so barely there it feels almost tacky or heavily wet and uneven - like you need to pat it around - depending on arms length you use - I end up spraying it multiple times. This may just be a me problem though that I haven’t figured this out by now!
Summer Fridays is a skincare brand that truly embodies the essence of uncomplicated beauty. Their products offer a refreshing approach to skincare, focusing on clean ingredients that deliver visible results. The formulations are lightweight yet effective, making them perfect for everyday use. My favorite is the Jet Lag Mask, which instantly hydrates and revitalizes tired skin. The brand's packaging is also aesthetically pleasing, making it a delightful addition to any skincare routine. Overall, Summer Fridays has quickly become a staple in my beauty arsenal for its quality and simplicity. Highly recommend!
I have used the lip balm butter and the jet lag mask and I love them both! I often take very long flights across country and the jet lag mask keeps my skin so hydrated in the air. I like to layer this on before boarding and again during the flight to ensure my skin is soft and hydrated upon arrival. I also love the lip balm butter, although it seems like the applicator has changed since I first got it. The formula of the product is still really great. I like how it lasts for a long time and the flavor of balm is pleasant and not too overpowering.

OK this works. I've been using it as a night time moisturizer and recently used it while traveling a long haul 12+ hour flight. It makes my skin feel rich and hydrated, kind of like an espresso shot boost!
so hydrating and moisturizing I am loving it
I have used their Shade Drops mineral sunscreens and the lip butter balm. I really like both of these, I love the lip butter balm - the tint is nice and sheer but buildable. I normally do not reach for mineral sunscreens, but Shade Drops is one of the nicest I've tried - it's pretty lightweight and the tint is nice for evening my skin when I want a little coverage but don't want to wear make up or anything heavy (that said, I am very pale and it's almost certainly going to leave a whitecast on anyone with a tan or darker skin tone).
Yet to find my favorite product in this brand. The lip balms are okay. So far, my favorite flavor is peppermint. Something about the other flavors just ends up drying out my lips. (I have a theory it’s the vanilla scent).
A little pricey but I love their jetlag and tumeric mask for additional hydration and care day to day.

The Shadedrops are one of my favorite products in my collection. My skin is protected and dewy at the same time - how could you not love that? Pro tip- make sure you actually shake the product before you use it.
LOVE the jet lag mask! I use it as my nighttime moisturizer. I really like the size of the travel size for travel but I recently splurged on the jumbo during the Sephora sale. I tried the lip balms in store to see what the hype is and they're fine but I feel like they're a little too sticky? The flavors also aren't for me. It's not my fave lip balm but I don't hate it. If they sold them in mini sizes individually I would probably get!
I love the lip butter balms and the jet lag mask. The vanilla beige lip butter balm is a great neutral. The cherry red lip butter balm is THE BEST. Just enough color to look like that "melted popsicle" look (that most brands try to achieve but end up being too red). Took away a star because they had a blush balm stick that I loved and it's mysteriously disappeared from the face of the earth.
I love their lip balms. So moisturizing . Not to mention aesthetically pleasing.

The Summer Fridays jet lag mask is my holy grail product. I notice a big difference in the texture of my skin when I don't use it versus when I do, so I try to make a habit of applying it nightly. I even want to gift it to my little brother because I think it would help out his skin too. The other products I have tried from them, like the lip balm, have been just ok in comparison, but still good.
one of my all time favorite masks and I LOVE their newer lip products

Jetlag mask is a true gem!
Loved the brand at first but I did not find myself repurchasing the products I tried. I did very much like the Cloud Dew as a summer moisturiser and the vitamin C.
I wanted to love Summer Fridays. I’ve tried 4 products from them, and none worked for me. While the products do smell great, are too many scent ingredients for my skin. Besides the scent not working for me, I think the products are more expensive than they warrant. For example, a gel cream I love is the niacinamide gel cream from Naturium. Summer Friday’s gel cream is not as good, comes in similar packaging, and costs 2x more.

Summer Fridays is an awesome, innovative brand with so many quality products. I've tried the Sheer Skin Tint and the ShadeDrops and they've both become regulars in my routine. The Sheer Skin Tint especially is one of my favorite products I've tried in the last year because it has such natural, glowy coverage with really hydrating ingredients. I can't wait to try more Summer Fridays products in the future!
My only experience is with the jetlag mask and LET ME TELL YOU it's not a great moisturizer under makeup (it pills) but it rocks for flights and night time moister lock in. I slather this on my face in the air and feel like my ski never dries out.
