With summer just around the corner, it’s time to get your body ready to bare. With a little help from Boots, you can go from pasty to perfect in a mere eight weeks.
Week One: De-fuzz
The only way to wear summer outfits with confidence is to know you have de-fuzzed all the right bits. Try Boots Expert Sensitive Hair Removal Cream to leave skin silky smooth for up to five days, while Boots Expert Single Use Waxing Strips leave skin soft and smooth for up to four weeks.
Week Two: Get tough on cellulite
Cellulite is a common summer setback. Diminish dimples with Boots Expert Total Body Anti-Cellulite Cream. This invigorating, refreshing cream has an advanced formula which visibly smoothes and contours the skin for a sleeker, slimmer silhouette.
Week Three: Spoil your hands and feet
Treat your feet to a home pedicure before you think of switching to sandals. Boots Gorgeous Feet Reviving Overnight Rescue will revive neglected feet while you sleep. Show your hands some love and pamper them with No7 Revitalising Hand Saviour, and then jazz them up with a splash of colour. Try 17 Lasting Fix Nail Polish, in Pink Grapefruit.
Week Four: Get skin soft and silky
Care for skin daily with Boots Original Beauty Formula Body Cream to give even the driest skin a moisture boost. Your legs might need special attention if you’re going to pull on dresses, skirts and shorts. Prep your pins with No7 Silky Leg Oil to keep pins looking soft and smooth.
Week Five: Summer skincare sorted!
You will find your skin gets oilier during the summer months, so it’s a good idea to change your skincare regime. Opt for a light moisturiser with SPF, such as No7 Time Resisting Day Cream SPF 15, to protect from free radicals and environmental stresses.
Week Six: Update your make up look
Summer is all about looking fresh faced, so keep make-up simple.
Prevent clogging pores with No7 Dual Protection Tinted Moisturiser, with a patented multi-antioxidant and SPF15. Avoid make-up meltdown with a dab of 17 Shine Control Pressed Powder and give cheeks a hint of colour with a swirl of No7 Starfish Bronzer.
Week Seven: Give your hair a summer spritz
A combination of sun, sea and styling can result in damage to the hair cuticle and loss of proteins and lipids. Give your hair a helping hand with Botanics 3 Minute Deep Conditioning Hair Mask. No7 Hair Protecting Spritz gives a conditioning protection for lovely summer hair.
Week Eight: Time to (fake ) tan
Take the safe way to a healthy glow and fake it. For a fantastic tan in a flash, try 17 Self Tan Instant Glow Skin Bronzer and for the face check out Soltan Beautiful Bronze Self Tan Face Cream that will develop into an even, natural looking colour within 2-3 hours.
With this easy step by step guide and top tips, you have no excuse not to look and feel your best this summer!
