Have a good scrubThis one will make you both look and feel better. Exfoliating gets rid of dead skin, unclogs pores, increases cell turnover and gets the blood flowing around your body. It speeds up the skin’s natural renewal process, meaning your moisturiser will penetrate deeper. Mix up a homemade version using brown sugar and almond oil and scrub gently into the skin using a loofa or washcloth. Your circulation will be ramped up and your skin will be glowing when you hit the beach.Get a fake tan
If you can be bothered, slapping on some fake tan before you head to the beach will hide a multitude of blemishes and can be a good confidence-booster. To ensure it doesn’t look patchy, exfoliate and moisturise first, paying special attention to the elbows and knees. Wear latex gloves to apply the tan as bright orange palms are a dead giveaway. Dabbing Vaseline along your brows and next to your hair line will prevent tide-marks. There has been some suggestion that a chemical called dihydroxyacetone (DHA) found in many self-tanners may cause cancer. If you’re worried, choose one without.© swimsuitsforall/Michael Edwards
Get a new swimsuit
For many women, summer fuels body anxiety and the thought of getting in a swimsuit can be triggering. A study from Flinders University in Australia found that, for women, even imagining trying on swimsuits can bring on a low mood. “Self-objectification has a variety of negative consequences: always worrying about how you look, shame about the body and it is linked to eating disorders and depression,” said study researcher Marika Tiggemann. While change will ultimately come from within, treating yourself to a new swimsuit will help. Allow lots of time and take along a friend for support. From one-piece wonders to boy shorts and tank tops, there will be one for you.
