Ready for the sun!

Finally, summer is coming again. With these tips and tricks you will be ready from head to toe for nice, warm days. Just scrub, lubricate and blast.

Scrub
Dry spots and skins don't look great in the summer, of course. You can remedy this by exfoliating your skin weekly, or if you have sensitive skin every other week.

Plan of approach Before you exfoliate, clean your face and body with a face wash and shower gel. This way you know for sure that your skin is clean, so that the scrub can do its job better. Start scrubbing from the bottom up and don't forget your feet too. Then you will suffer less from hard callus feet. You can massage the scrub in gently with your hands, but you can also use a scrub glove or shower puff.

Body scrub
For your body, use a coarse scrub. For example, the Salt Scrub Inner Calm from Etos (€ 6.49) with sea salt and the relaxing scent of lavender. Patchouli purifies and cleanses the skin. There are different types of scrubs – from coarse sea salt to fine crystals – it just depends on what you like.

Face scrub Use a fine facial scrub for your face. The granules in the body scrub are too coarse and too hard for the thinner skin of your face. The ClearSkin scrub gel from Dr. van der Hoog (€8.84) contains apricot kernel particles that remove dead skin cells and excess sebum.
