The 5 “Do’s” of Swimsuit Season
Ok ok, so it isn’t fair that Jenny from the block – Miss Jennifer Lopez looks this perfect lounging ocean side. With a little help from Veet, Trilastin, OGX, It Works and Bioelexia, you too can be this supafly during swimsuit season or at least come in a close second.
Be Hairy-Free
Don’t get arrested for indecent exposure. Handle “that” before leaving the house with Veet Fast Acting Gel Cream Hair Remover (see retailers for pricing), which goes to the root of the growth, so you get smoother skin that lasts longer.
Glisten In The Sun
Skin that glistens on the white sands is the sexiest thing, ever! To get a jaw-dropping glow while smelling like a piece of paradise, use OGX Weightless Hydrating Oil Body Mist ($7.99, target.com). Coconut oil is used for just about everything these days from makeup remover to treating dry hair. For the beach, use this blend of bamboo extracts and coconut oil to achieve head-to-toe hydration.
Tighten It Up
To speed up your swimsuit body debut, treat yourself to an It Works Body Wraps ($99, myitworks.com) pre-beach. For 45 minutes, this non-woven cloth, which is infused with botanically-based ingredients tightens, tones and firms problem areas like your stomach, flanks, hips, arms and thighs.
My review: As I laid the cloth on my stomach, I took a deep breath to manage the cold against my skin – it took a few minutes to get used to it. It also tingles, which eventually dies down. I felt like it was doing something, but to be fair, I’d have to do multiple treatments, to see results.
Another option for toning your bod before heading to the beach is BioElexia Firming Body Lotion ($25.50, bioelexia.com) – a daily firming toning lotion contains Caffeine and Salicylic Acid that visibly tightens so skin looks more firm as it is blended with the super-moisturizing properties of Aloe Vera, Shea Butter and Passionfruit Seed Oil.
Don’t let stretch marks hamper your mood – treat them with TriLASTIN Intensive Stretch Mark Complex ($87, trilastin.com), which works in as little as three weeks with commitment to regular use that is. This non-greasy formula gives you 2x’s the active ingredients as the original TriLASTIN-SR and works on all types of complexions (men and women) and skin as well as all shades of stretch marks including red, white and silver marks. And get this, if you don’t like it, there’s a risk-free 60 Day Satisfaction Guarantee. Use with Trilastin hydro thermal accelerator for best possible results.
