Get Active
Hopefully, you didn’t let your exercise routine die during the cold months, but if you did, you’re not alone. It’s hard to motivate yourself to get out for a run when it’s freezing outside. Curling up with a warm blanket and a book is much more preferable.
Whether exercise has been on hold or not, it’s time to crank it up. If you’re starting fresh, don’t beat yourself up. Just 30 minutes of activity a day is recommended, but anything more than you’re doing now will make a difference.
If you’ve been active but your body still isn’t beach-ready, just add a little more. Tack on an extra five minutes of cardio, five sit-ups, and five push-ups.
It’s very important to keep something in mind, though. You’re not the only one who will feel self-conscious on the beach. And there is more than one out-of-shape person who will be in a swimsuit. So getting in shape is perfectly fine, but don’t do it to compete with others. You just need to reach a point where you feel good about yourself.
Stay Hydrated and Moisturized

Also, you need to keep your skin moisturized. Between the heat you’ll be faced with and the water you’re probably going to be playing in, your skin can quickly dry out and look unhealthy if you’re not keeping it hydrated as well.
Hit the Spa
Spa studios are a great way to freshen up your look after a long winter. They offer many different treatments that vary according to their chosen specialties. Getting your eyebrows done and having laser hair removal are two common options. Wraps to improve the look and feel of your skin are available. Bikini waxes and acne treatment are other common options.
Medical spas provide other treatments that you might be interested in. These include things like fat freezing, liposuction, Botox, and more. They’re called medical spas because they do have a licensed medical professional overseeing all of these things.
Keep in mind, though, that they don’t just offer medical treatments. They offer the same skincare and regular spa treatments, as well.
