Summer, time for pool parties! But how do you look your best for a costume party? Follow the tips in this article to transform yourself into a beach beauty in no time!
Steps
Step 1. Bring a nice beach bag
One with a striped or polka dot pattern is the best choice. Make sure it's big enough to hold everything you'll need, but don't go overboard with the size.
Step 2. Wear a bikini or one-piece swimsuit that fits you well (there's no shame in wearing neither
). Tankinis are usually a good choice because they combine the two models.
Step 3. Bring a trendy beach towel to relax and choose a large one, as your friends may want to sit with you for a chat
Step 4. Cover up with some summer clothes
Try wearing a nice skirt, sarong, or short shorts over your swimsuit. You could also try on a bolero or striped shirt over your swimsuit.
Step 5. Wear waterproof mascara if desired
Rinse your face before going out to check that it actually is - having eyes like a panda won't make you look good.
Step 6. Remember to wax yourself before you go to the party
Step 7. Style your hair with a summer cut without using the hair straightener
Take a nice shower, put gel in your hair or use the spray to style it. You can also use a curling cream to curl your hair.
Step 8. Don't forget the accessories
Try to avoid loose jewels, though… you certainly don't want them to fall out. Try some sequined hair clips, earrings (studs only! Otherwise they could get caught very easily), and other jewelry that you don't mind getting wet. Large bracelets are great (but they might fall off!)
Step 9. Enhance your appeal with sunglasses
If you can afford them, branded ones would be the perfect choice. Otherwise, you can find cheap imitations at discount stores. Pick a pair that looks great and is sturdy.
Step 10. Don't forget your sunscreen
Try using a spray sunscreen; they are easy to apply and give the skin a shiny appearance making it shiny! Sometimes a scented cream like those with coconut flavor can be fun and a great gimmick to give a change to the usual routine.
Step 11. Put on a nice pair of flip flops
Step 12. Make sure your swimsuit, sunglasses, towel, beach bag, nail polish, jewelry, flip flops, all have trendy, bright, flashy colors and are reminiscent of summer cheer
You will be a one hundred percent beach beauty!
Step 13. Go out and have fun with friends
Advice
- Citrus colors are always perfect for summer.
- You can sip an ice cold drink to keep yourself hydrated!
- If you want to wear a perfume, choose a floral or citrus one. In full summer style!
- If you have a very fair complexion and are thinking about getting a tan, think again! Going to a tanning salon, even just once, doubles your chances of getting skin cancer. Don't even use tanning oil. Try to wear sunscreen often when you leave the house in the summer (look for one with an SPF greater than 15). Instead of being disappointed that you can't get a tan, think about how wise you are in choosing not to risk getting cancer and finding yourself with moles all over your body that should be removed.
- Eat before you leave the house. You will definitely want to avoid the food between your teeth.
