The 5 Secrets to Sorting Your Body for Summer

If you spend the winter forgetting your feet, neglecting your knees and overlooking (quite literally) your neck and chest, this is what you need:

If you are prone to bumpy skin/Keratosis Pilaris…

To help treat Keratosis Pilaris, you need a two-pronged attack: first, a twice-weekly polishing treatment where you can really start to loosen dead cells, then a gentle skin resurfacer that you can use daily to keep the build-up at bay. For your twice-weekly treatment, Super Healthy Skin Nourishing Body Polish is a satisfyingly grainy scrub for unbeatable skin smoothing, even on bumpy areas. ‎Formulated in Italy by a totally brilliant biochemist, it’s enriched with Mango and Papaya Enzymes that help with the smoothing, as well as nourishing Omega 3 and Omega 6 Oils to help strengthen skin and replenish lost moisture.

Apply with finger tips using brisk circular motions, and remember that the rinsing off is as important as the buffing on - that’s  when you really get to remove those old skin cells and reveal the smooth skin beneath. Then whenever you shower, use Dr Glycolic Deep Purifying Foamy Clay Cleanser on bumpy areas like tops of arms, neck and chest. It contains oil-absorbing Kaolin and Montmorillonite Clays, microbe-fighting Lauric Acid and smoothing Lactic and Glycolic Acids. Again, apply to dry skin and on really blemish or bump-prone areas, leave on for a couple of minutes before rinsing to let the acids really get to work. 

If you have crepey skin or sun damage on your neck and chest...

Your go-to routine couldn’t be easier - or more effective. After showering and before you get dressed, spritz on the spectacular Uber Youth™ Neck & Chest Super Lift Serum-Spray (it sinks in fast). Repeat before bed if you’d like. The 5% Niacinamide helps  brighten and lighten the look of sun and age spots (while supporting the skin’s natural barrier), while 4% Idealift Peptides help fight the visible effects of gravity.

Then 2-3 times a week at night (after your Uber Youth™ Spray, if you’re using it), apply the Youthbomb™ Body 360 Repair Concentrate to your décolletage. As with all Retinol products, it’s recommended you follow with SPF by day - so when you’re applying it to your face, just take it all the way down to your chest.

If you’ve lost your glow…

First, choose what kind of glow you’d like. If you’re looking for natural radiance, then the Vitamin C Bio-Vitamin Brightening & Firming Body Lotion is the one for you. It’s a high-tech, radiance-boosting, moisturising body lotion, loaded with Tranexamic Acid, Hyaluronic Acid, firming Brown Algae and stable Vitamin C. It gives sun-damaged skin a super-boost, too.  Use daily for the fastest brightening, firming and rejuvenating effects, or 2-3 times weekly for maintenance.

But if you’re looking for something a little more sun-kissed, go for Awesome Bronze Super Formula No-Streak Self-Tanning Mousse. We worked on it with the UK’s best self-tanner lab – a team of chemists who’ve turned getting gorgeous, healthy-looking, sun-kissed skin into a 3-minute art form. It doesn’t give you that self-tanner smell, is long-lasting, and boosted with a dual-action DHA and hydrating Hyaluronic Acid. For best, most even and longest-lasting results, scrub your body the day before applying, and follow up with the Vitamin C Body Lotion every day afterwards. You’ll wonder how you did summer without it.

If your feet are a bomb site…

The joyous thing about reviving neglected feet is that you make such impressive strides (if you’ll pardon the pun) so quickly. With one application of Super Tonic Peppermint Leg & Foot Scrub you’ll lift away dry, dead skin thanks to the triple-mix of Blue Persian, Dead Sea and Pink Himalayan Salts - while at the same time making heavy legs feel lighter again thanks to the tonic Bladderwrack Extract and pure Peppermint essential oil.

Use it every few days. You can apply Footopia™ Super Softening Foot & Heel Cream morning and/or night, but a quick foot soak at night (a few drops of Reboot Blend Aromatherapy Bath & Shower Oil in the water will go down a treat, too) followed by a generous application of the Foot & Heel Cream is the fastest (and easiest) way to wake up with baby-soft feet. 

If you don’t know what you need…

You need this: Super Healthy Skin Deluxe Body Moisture Crème. You’ll see (and feel) a difference to the softness of your skin in a day, even when skin is very rough and dry. In a week? You’ll be gleaming. It’s a body cream that thinks it’s an oil (it suspends invisible micro-droplets of oil in water, for superlight yet intense skin nourishing) and is  infused with sustainable cold-pressed Hibiscus Flower, Meadowfoam Oils, Liquid Shea Butter and Essential Oils of Orange, Tangerine, Geranium and Tonka Bean.
