Yet for many of us, a tripto the coast is fraught with danger – with salt water playinghavoc with hair and leaving it frizzy and dehydrated, whiledrying out the skin. Happily, there are ways to deal with this –and make use of the power of the sea to look and feel great.Sea water concentrate in numerous products can workinstantly to revitalise cells, helping skin feel refreshed andrevitalised, while sea clay is regularly used in beauty treatmentsthanks to its status of one of the purest natural substances of all.Oxygen, purifying clay, trace elements, sulphur, mineral-rich seasalt and organic components can all be found within it and thiscan help remove acne causing toxins from the skin and revitalisetired skin. Many Lincolnshire salons and spas now offer slimmingwraps that make great use of this and can certainly help you getthe perfect beach body.With these wraps, it’s the sea clay itself that draws the toxinsout of the skin. Via a process known as detoxification, it alsoworks by compaction, lymphatic drainage and skin tightening.Toxins are stored in the fluid surrounding our cells, where theyget trapped, and they can take years to build up, so generally acourse of three wraps, seven to ten days apart, will give the bestresult. People who have recently stopped smoking can certainlybenefit in this case as it helps draw it out of the body.The wraps aren’t intended to serve as a replacement forexercise and healthy eating, but to be used in addition to it.Indeed, when hen you lose weight, the fat cells empty into thefluid depositing toxins, so a wrap when losing weight can serveas a great motivator. Removing the toxins and keeping the skintight and more compact helps to prevent loose skin and the lossof collagen and elastin.If you get too much of the sun on the beach this year, orsimply want to have perfect skin ready to get a tan, there areplenty of options and one of the most popular at the moment ismicrodermabrasion. You can do this at home but manyrecommend that you make use of the treatment available in asalon, which uses a vacuum action, where crystals tumble acrossthe skin, chip off the dead skin and then are lifted away. Thisgives across a sense of brightness and rejuvenation.A course of forty minute treatments will dramatically andvisibly improve the texture and appearance of the skin, reducingand smoothing fine lines and producing a smoother morerejuvenated skin – offering instant, visible results. It worksparticularly well on acne, especially with oxygen therapytreatments.The benefits of using a salon rather than trying the techniqueat home is that many of us can be over-zealous with exfoliators,and when you rub them into areas that need attention, you cansometimes end up making the skin over-sensitive, red and shiny.Home care microdermabrasion kits can work but you’re pushingthe crystals into the skin to abrade which can scratch the skin.Over-exfoliating can also make the area thicker and as a resultyou can end up exfoliating every day.Salt water and chlorine can certainly have a big effect on yourhair but there are ways to combat that with a little extrapreparation. As professional hairdresser Claire Rodgers, whoworks for Tints of Nature, points out, “If you’re going to spendall day out in the sun, on the beach or poolside, you shouldspray your hair beforehand with a leave-in conditioner because ithas thermal barriers, UV filters and naturally derived wheatproteins to strengthen and protect the hair. “Hair is made predominately of protein and the flexible of theprotein is controlled by the small amount of moisture that hairhas naturally. It’s protected by seven to ten layers of hardprotein known as the cuticle. So in the summer. it’s important toshampoo the hair thoroughly each evening using a good qualityprotein moisture shampoo along with a combination conditionerwith natural and organic ingredients. This will ensure that theharmful effects of the sun, salt water and chlorine will not dolong-term permanent damage to your hair.”With a little preparation, you can make sure you return fromthe coast looking bronzed and refreshed, rather than frizzy andflustered.Take a fresh lookAvoid frizziness and fluster with these hair and beauty tips048-049:Layout 1 15/4/13 11:00 Page 1LINCOLNSHIRETODAY49HAIR & BEAUTYIf you’regoing to spend all dayout in the sun, on the beach orpoolside, you should spray yourhair beforehand with a leave-inconditioner because it has thermalbarriers, UV filters and naturallyderived wheat proteins tostrengthen and protectyour hairPHOTO: SHUTTERSTOCK.COM/ALEKSANDRA NADEINA048-049:Layout 1 15/4/13 11:00 Page 2Next >
