Wellness and skincare professionals around the globe use a number of techniques to help clients maintain that youthful glow and prepare for swimsuit season.

Here are some tips for preparing for your beach vacation:Take a Hot and Cold Shower

Hydrotherapy has become a popular body treatment at spas around the globe and can be an effective way to increase circulation and help your body detoxify naturally. Plan on alternating between hot and cold temperature the next time you take a shower. This process will open and close the pores to release toxins and help your skin breathe.Watch the Carbs

Eating a high protein diet may help you lose a few pounds before that beach getaway and slim down for that swimsuit. Eating a high protein and low carb diet can get you beach-ready in a very short period of time. Eating smaller meals throughout the day is a great way to keep your appetite in check and also limit your calorie intake enough to lose some weight. Eat a variety of lean proteins and fresh foods leading up to your beach vacation so you can look and feel great throughout the trip. It’s also a good idea to drink lots of water to stay hydrated and curb your appetite.Exfoliate

Exfoliating your skin involves getting rid of dead skin cells using a body scrub, loofah, or washcloth. Stimulating the skin and buffing away those dead skin cells can help to keep your skin looking smooth and radiant for the beach. Smooth and buffed skin is more attractive than dry or rough-looking skin, so you’ll need an all-over body exfoliation session to look your best in that swimsuit.
