Pre-holiday: have a tan plan
Everyone wants to start and come back from their holiday looking gorgeously golden, and while we don’t condone sunbaking, we’re definitely in favour of getting your faux glow on. But what’s the best way to go about it so that your fake tan doesn’t start to flake off halfway through your holiday? A gradual tanner of course! If you start using it a few days before you head off, you’ll have a subtle tan when you arrive at your destination, and will also be able to top it up daily without looking like an Oompa Loompa by the end of your holiday. Try: Natio Sun-Kissed Glow Gradual Tan Lotion.
Mid-holiday: be hair prepared
There’s nothing worse than getting yourself all fuzz-free before your vay-cay, only to have those pesky hairs poking back out again while you’re still poolside. What you need is a quick, easy and effective method for hair removal touch-ups, and for that the Veet EasyWax™ Electrical Roll-on Kit is your main man. It’s compact enough to slip into any suitcase, plugs into the wall to heat up (no microwave required!) and provides salon-quality waxing results with minimal fuss.
Post-holiday: treat your tresses
If you’ve spent the summer holidays frolicking in the sun, sea or swimming pool, then chances are your tresses will be a little worse for wear by the end of it. The answer? A quick-fix hair treatment that’ll restore the shine and vitality to your summertime-dried and brittle locks. Simply apply it to the ends of your hair the night you get home, leave it to penetrate for a few minutes and healthier strands will be all yours!
