With so many body buffing products on the beauty shelves, there’s really no excuse for not treating yourself to a bit of TLC.
“Body-boosting products can really add to your overall youthful look and make you look totally groomed,” says celebrity make-up artist Jackie Tyson, who has worked her magic on the likes of Katy Perry and Sienna Miller.
Here are some of Jackie Tyson's recommended products for whipping your body into swimsuit-ready shape:
“My favourite products for getting your body in top form begin with the brilliant bath oils from Aromatherapy Associates.Whether you’re trying to revive or relax, they do exactly what they say on the bottle."
“Then to get skin smooth and hydrated, I love Sisley's Comfort Extreme Body Cream for very dry areas. This really mends summer-parched skin."
If you want luminous, photo-ready skin, you might want to consider body make-up.
Brands like MAC and Benefit have a big range of goodies, which are ideal for contouring your arms, legs and décolletage. Look out for highlighting products with plenty of light-reflective shimmer.
“When doing red carpet or just wanting to look super hot, cover exposed limbs with a thin veil of MAC Face & Body Foundation,” advises Jackie. “It’s long lasting, waterproof and makes your skin look flawless."
A final touch is a sprinkling of gold glimmer. Use Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick compact in 24 Karat. Lightly dust the centre of leg, collar bones and shoulders to top off your finished look.
