Get beach-body CONFIDENT
Feel and look great this summer with these nifty beauty tricks
Buff and brush
The majority of women experience cellulite on their body at some point and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with it, but if you’re concerned about it and it’s affecting your confidence, there are a few ways to blitz it. Use a buffing brush such as Espa Skin Stimulating Brush, £21, espaskincare. com, and start doing it a few weeks before your holiday. It encourages cell turnover so your skin looks radiant and it removes dead skin cells allowing your products to absorb more easily. Follow this with a toning lotion such as Clarins Body Fit Anti-cellulite Contouring Expert, £40, clarins.co.uk, to firm up the skin.
Smart protection
We all want to look sun-kissed during the summer, but the reality with high SPF sunscreens is often white, shiny faces and spots. Instead of your usual sticky sun cream, opt for one of these skin-loving formulas.
La Roche-posay Anthelios Uvmune 400 Invisible Fluid SPF50+, £18, lookfantastic. com, is lightweight, non-greasy and makes a great base for make-up. If you’re worried about pigmentation, try Garnier Ambre Solaire Anti-spots and Anti-pollution Super UV Protection Fluid SPF50+, £8, Boots, as the added antioxidants combat dark patches.
