Look Better in Your Bikini

It won’t be long until summer rolls around, and when it does, you’ll probably want to slip into your bikini and visit the local beach. Of course, wearing a bikini can be a daunting prospect, especially if you haven’t done it in a while, but there are lots of tips and tricks that can help any woman to feel confident and look more beautiful than ever in her bikini.

Here are just some of the tips and tricks you can use to look better in your bikini this summer:

Be Confident

First, and most importantly, you need to be confident in yourself and your body if you want to exude a calm and confident beauty. You don’t need to look like an A-lister to be bikini body beautiful, but being as confident as one will certainly help.

Exercise

Obviously, the best way to look good in a bikini is exercise. The more trim and toned you are the better your bikini will look and the more comfortable you’ll feel wearing it. See topworkoutprograms.com/workout-reviews/max-workouts-review/ for an exercise program that will help you to slim down and tone up in all the right places before summer gets into full swing.

Buy the Right Bikini

Even if your body isn’t as bikini-ready as you would like it to be, you can look better on the beach by choosing the right bikini for your body-shape. You can find a guide to buying the right bikini at http://www.huffingtonpost.com/, but in most instances, if you’re curvy you should buy a supportive bikini, and if you’re a flatter, straight up and down type, buying a bikini with frills, ruffles or ruching on the bust will help give you the illusion of more curves.

Colour Confident

When buying this year’s bikini, you should choose colours that you love and which match your skin tone if you want to feel good and be confident in your bikini. A good trick is to use splashes of colour to highlight your best features and neutral tones to keep the eye away from those problem areas you’d rather people didn’t focus on.

Try Separates

If you’re top heavy or you have curvy hips, you might find that mixing and matching separates will enable you to get a better fit and improve your proportions, so that you look fantastic when you step out in your bikini.

Fake It ‘Til You Make It

Unless you’ve spent your time since last summer living it up on a paradise island in your bikini, chances are your skin won’t be quite as bronzed as you would like. If you hate the pale and interesting look, it might, therefore, be a good idea to book an appointment at the tanning salon. There’s no shame in faking it until your skin’s seen some actual sun, and having a spray tan applied correctly can help you look slimmer and more toned. What’s not to love?

Go Fuzz Free

It’s an annoyance, but there’s no getting around the fact that, in summer, we have more skin on show and that means we have to step up our hair removal regime. So, unless you’re one of those girls who’s confident enough to leave your body hair where it is, time to stock up on leg wax and start removing the fuzz.

Buff Up

Once you have de-fuzzed your exposed areas, it’s time to exfoliate. Getting rid of those dead skin cells will ensure that your bikini body is silky smooth and glowing when you hit the beach.

Moisturise

Of course, there’s no point exfoliating if you’re not also going to moisturise your freshly waxed and buffed skin. Moisturising twice a day will help to keep your skin in perfect condition, getting rid of dry and scaly skin patches, so that you always look your best on the beach.

Wear Sunscreen

If you don’t want to end up looking like a lobster after a few hours in your bikini, check out this guide to the best sunscreens at http://www.independent.co.uk/extras/indybest/ and ensure that you slather it on before and during your trip to the beach. It’ll stop your skin from prematurely aging too.

Take a Cover Up

Wearing a bikini is all about baring the skin, but most of us don’t want to have our flesh on display the whole time. If you want to look well dressed on the beach, wearing a cover-up that shows just enough of the bikini beneath can look even better than a lone bikini, and it can cover a multitude of sins too!
