Happy Summer! The first day of November always makes me happy. It's the first day after winter where I absolutely and without abandon throw myself into summer – morning runs on the beach, lunches on the promenade, lazy days on the beach, sunset cocktails, parties on the beach… (Can you tell I'm fond of the beach?)
And by 1 November I've exfoliated, self-tanned, epilated, bronzed, waxed, moisturised, de-fuzzed, mani'd and pedi'd my body in preparation for the looming party season.
But enough about me! We want to know
YOUR secret to summer skin. Tell us on
Twitter what your secret to summer skin is and you could win an uh-mazing summer hamper.
Make sure you add the words
@BeautySAfrica and
#SummerSkinSecret to your tweet so we can find your secret.
In the hamper you'll find a
Yardley Oatmeal Brightening Scrub to start your day radiantly, as well as the limited edition
Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant and
Uriage SPF50 Sun Cream to protect your skin. Stay cool throughout the day with an
Oh So Heavenly Silky Smooth antiperspirant and bright and breezy with
Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea Cherry Blossom fragrance.
Sprayology's Vitamin Oral Spray will give you your daily dose of vitamins while
The Body Shop's Satsuma Hand Cleanser Gel will keep the germs at bay. Firm up and smooth your body with
Johnson's Pure Tissue Oil and
Nivea's Q10 Plus Firming Body Lotion, before using
Fino's Soothe lotion after that wax or shave. Unleash your inner bronzed goddess with
Caribbean Tan's Tan in a Can Self Tan, or if you prefer to head into the sun, do it safely with
Bergasol's Dry Oil SPF20 tan accelerator. If you've overdone it in the sun, try
Lamelle's Nourish Rescue Repair Gel. Settle down for the evening a
Cettua My Bright Face Mate mask while soaking away the day with
Oh So Heavenly's Cape Rooibos & Baobab Oil Renewing Body Wash and Renewing Body Lotion.
Sjoe! What a hamper right?! So you better hurry to
share your summer skin secrets; you only have until Tuesday 13 November before the competition ends.
