Toning up your skin before going on holiday??

Filed under: Hints & Tips — Tags: , , — admin @ 1:32 pm

Its getting to the time of year when we are all starting to think about our summer holidays, and getting our bodies bikini ready.

As well as any physical activities such as sports, going to the gym etc. it is also a good idea to tone up your skin. Try showering with a body loofer or use a body brush. Not only will this help remove any dead skin cells but it will also increase your circulation, therefore increasing the blood flow, keeping your skin nice and healthy looking. Always apply a body moisturiser (using the St Tropez Body Moisturiser can help to give you a deeper, richer tan like as it does when using the 3 step process) especially after a shower or bath.

Remember to apply a sun protector before you go out in those sun rays. Not only are you putting yourself at a higher risk of skin cancer but also being in the sun can cause pigmentation problems that may not be visible now, but as the skin ages you may start to notice them then. The sun is also very ageing on the skin too, so keep your skin looking its age-protect it!

Just as important the ‘infamous water drinking’- not only is it necessary for our bodies to function properly, but it is by far the best and most basic way to keep our skin healthy. Recommendations are a minimum of 2 litres of water a day for women and 2.5 litres for men. Try adding a slice of lemon or lime into your glass to liven it up a bit.

Until next time,
