5 Things to get Yourself Vacation Ready

In case you hadn’t noticed … summer is officially here and many people are escaping to cooler temperatures or tropical locations. We’re here to help you get yourself vacation ready so you can feel confident in the pics that you’re posting on Facebook and Instagram (no filters necessary!) to make all your friends and family members jealous.

Get your tan on

No matter where you’re headed, everyone feels more confident with a little bit of color, especially if you’ll be showing less skin than usual. Instead of exposing your body to harmful UV rays, consider a spray tan. You’ll look leaner, your eyes will shine brighter and your teeth will look whiter. Win, win, win!

Prepare your skin

Save time on vacation by getting rid of unwanted hair. Waxing is quick, fairly painless when done right and will simplify your getting ready routine when on vacation. Don’t want your eye makeup rubbing off at the pool? Get your brows and lashes tinted to save time and save yourself from having raccoon eyes after swimming. Not a good look for family pictures.

Is your skin not looking picture perfect? Schedule an appointment for a facial to address any of your current skin concerns. And then make sure you pack the sunscreen!

Prep your nails

You’re never fully dressed without a manicure or pedicure. Summer vacation is the perfect time to step outside of your comfort zone and experiment with colors you might not otherwise wear. Popular colors for the summer include turquoise, metallic oranges, white and fuschia. And did you know that opaque nail color can actually protect the skin under your nails from dangerous cancer causing UV rays?

Prepare your mind

Don’t wait until you get to your destination to get into a vacation state of mind. Book a massage or attend a yoga class a day or two before you depart to get your mind on the way to relaxation, even before you arrive at your destination.

Go shopping

Last but certainly not least, grab a new outfit or two! A vacation wouldn’t be complete without a new date night outfit or something to wear for family photos. Heading to the beach? Pick up a new pair of sunglasses to protect your eyes from the sun.

Enjoy your vacation and tag us in your pics! We’ll live vicariously through all of you and your fabulous trips this summer.
