20 Ways To Look And Feel Great This Summer
Want to go on vacation this summer but don't have the time or money? Tell me about it! I've come up with 20 ways that you can look and feel like you've been relaxing at the beach all summer, without even
If you can't bake it, fake it! We all know that tanning our bodies wreaks havoc on our skin ... but it looks so good! Self-tanners have come a long way from the iodine-in-a-bottle that left us all orange in the 80s. There are so many to choose from: lotion, mouse, spray-on. And, speaking of spray-on, many tanning salons offer spray tanning booths for an even, safe tan.
Take care of your hair. Don't let the sun damage your tresses. Use a deep conditioner once a week and a leave-in conditioner. If you are a swimmer, try spritzing the inside of your swim cap with a leave-in conditioner.
Look sun-kissed. Highlights can make you look like you wile away your days on the beach. Talk to your hairstylist about the appropriate amount and location of highlights that best fits your color. For a cheaper version, try combing lemon juice through your hair while you are outside.
Get a new do. A kicky short hairstyle may be just what you need to look refreshed - maybe even try a new color!
Read a book. That's right, put on your headphones with a recording of ocean waves, relax in your chaise lounge and read! There's nothing that washes away your cares like getting absorbed in a good book.
Revamp your smile. A good tan always makes your teeth look whiter. But now even pale faces can have whiter teeth! Talk to your dentist about all the different teeth whitening options.
Wake up your make up. Just as you change your wardrobe during the summer, you should also change your makeup. You can look like you have a summer glow by using brush-on bronzers, and avoid looking like you're melting by substituting them for foundation. Shimmer and shine - with eye shadows and lip glosses, that is. Pick pale colors and keep it to a minimum for a fresh face.
Treat your feet. Don't neglect your tootsies during the summer - they're way too exposed! Splurge on a pedicure and you'll be more likely to take care of them.
Learn how to skydive. What? Well, learn a new hobby - whether it's extreme or moderate. Hobbies are relaxing and, just like that good book, it's easy to get lost in the activity and forget your worries.
Give your skin a glow. Salt and sugar scrubs are a great way to make your skin look fresh. They remove dead skin cells revealing healthy skin underneath. Many spas offer body scrubs, or you can
Throw out your razor! Laser hair removal is quickly becoming a mainstream treatment at plastic surgery centers. You'll never have to deal with razor burn again!
Get fit. Join a gym, pump iron at home, walk around the block, and in a few months you could look like you spent your summer at Venice Beach!
Eat like a Bahamian. Fire up the grill, throw on some fish and pretend you're in the Caribbean. Hey, why not make it a party? Invite your friends for a tropical-themed dinner with grilled pineapple skewers, fruity drinks and limbo!
Lighten your wardrobe. Be daring ... wear a camisole, wear white, wear strappy sandals. Try things you would never have dreamed of wearing - you might be surprised!
Smell Scent-ous. Loose the heavy perfume during the summer and try a lighter body spray or oil mist. Florals, like gardenia, or fruits, like coconut, will make you smell like you've been to the tropics.
Get out the sprinkler. Remember how much fun it was to run through the sprinkler? Next time you're watering the lawn, put on your bathing suit (and sunscreen), grab the chaise lounge and let the water cascade over you like waterfall.
Keep the water coming. Nothing makes your skin look and feel better than drinking lots of water - 6 eight ounce servings a day is recommended.
Zap those veins. Varicose veins can now be removed with laser surgery. So, if you have been avoiding wearing shorts, now there's no excuse.
Travel vicariously through others. Pick up a travel book or magazine and read about exciting adventures. Let your imagination wander and then start making plans for next year.
Make some ME time. Leave the kids with a sitter for an hour and go shopping. Sometimes just doing something you enjoy, by yourself, is enough to make you feel like a new person.
