It's easy to cover up in the winter, but once summer rolls around, it's swimsuit season again. You don't have to be a celebrity to look great this summer. Check out these tips to look and feel confident in your own skin.
Preparation is key.
Celebrities make sure their bodies are in top shape before they even get near a swimsuit, and that means eating smart. Even if you don't have the luxury of a personal chef, you can tweak your diet for a few days before you know you'll be sporting that swimsuit. Cut sweets from your diet to reduce bloating, and add more lean proteins, such as chicken and turkey. Don't forget about fruits and veggies for natural energy. Also, be sure to drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated and in shape. Try PUR® water filters for clean water you can enjoy anytime.
Get great skin.
The tanned, smooth skin that celebrities show off in their swimsuits is not always a natural part of their beauty. Great skin takes work, and there are a few things you can do to feel beautiful in your skin. Exfoliate daily in the shower — even the hard-to-reach places such as the bottoms of your feet and your elbows. Then apply a light, even coating of Olay® Touch of Sun® to your whole body. It goes beyond lasting moisturization to give your skin a radiant, sun-kissed glow. It leaves no streaks and no orange coloring — with no sun required. A light glow will make you look and feel great when it's time to put on that swimsuit.
Embrace your shape.
Celebrities know that the most important part of looking great in a swimsuit is choosing the right suit for their body type. When you go shopping for a new swimsuit, make sure it fits well (and is not too tight), and choose a complementary color for your skin tone. Play up your best features, and choose cute accessories, such as fun earrings or a bright sarong, to finish off the look.
Look and feel as great in your swimsuit as any celebrity when you follow these tips. And remember, confidence is as important as what you're wearing — so smile and have fun in the sun!
