Beautician Lorraine Quinn has a guide to getting your skin, health and beauty ready for the summer season.

It’s getting warmer out there, which means you’re probably thinking about shedding the sweaters and even (gasp!) going sleeveless! But then you may look at your skin and think, hm, am I quite ready to show that off. Here are a few tips to get you ready for the summer:

Set yourself a goal

Whether you want to lose a few pounds, perk up your butt, or tone up all over, figuring out what you want to accomplish is the first step. Once you commit to a goal (like, “I want to lose 10 pounds by July”), break it into smaller, more manageable pieces, so you can work toward it on a weekly and daily basis (think: “I want to lose 1 pound per week”) and achieve it just in time for summer.

Nourish your body to achieve your health goals

Exfoliate to reveal beautiful skin

Human skin has an extraordinary ability to regenerate itself. In the process, dead skin cells can hang out on the outermost layer, making your legs, torso, and arms look dry, dull, and scaly. One of the easiest ways to rectify the situation is to exfoliate.

Tip: I personally prefer dry exfoliating. I feel exfoliating in the shower is a waste of your product. When the body is wet, your product is just slipping and sliding off your body, which means your really not getting a good firm scrub. Just before you get into the shower wet your finger tips pour some product and rigorously exfoliate your skin then step into the shower to rinse.your skin will definitely know it’s been exfoliated! Moisturize immedialty after.

 

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate

Drinking water is a fantastic habit to start now since it makes your skin glow, fills you up, and can help reduce the appearance of cellulite. Add lemon and cucumber slices or frozen berries to your water. It adds some subtle flavour and vibrant colour to your water, which will encourage you to drink more throughout the day.

Mini Mi Wrap

For those women & men that have stubborn areas they can not shift.

Mini Mi is a non-invasive body wrap treatment that we love here at Beauty At The Lodge, it is designed to offer you a more sculpted body with lasting results.

It is the industry’s leading body wrap, as seen on TV3’s Xpose and used by many celebrities.

This treatment has the power to help you drop a dress size in a single treatment.
