The golden rule…
Whether you're planning to use a BB cream or a self-tan serum, you'll need to scrub your legs the day before (non-negotiable!). Start with your feet, while paying extra attention to your ankles, and work your way up to your thighs. Scrubbing gets rid of dead skin cells to give you a uniform tan.
As the mercury mounts, our legs can begin to feel heavy. Hot weather, killer heels, standing for hours at a time call for you to give your legs a break.
The ‘cold shower’ technique: The best way to revive heavy legs and tone up the skin is to round off your morning shower by alternately blasting your legs with hot and cold water and finishing with the latter.
Drink at least 3-4L of water per day: Another well-known classic; water helps liquefy the blood and prevents it from stagnating in our veins – one of the culprits behind heavy leg syndrome.
Lighten your legs: Massage your legs with a body lotion every evening. If your legs need an instant pick-me-up, then spritz them with cool water. It'll boost your circulation and leave your limbs feeling feather-light.
