THREE WAYS

TO CHEAT IT

BUTTER UP!

Your skin needs an extra injection of moisture after a day in the sun. After
showering, slather on a rich body butter or lotion to get your limbs
gleaming. Perfect for evenings, Africology Shimmer Butter (£35 for 175ml,
uk.africologyspa.com) provides instant radiance and nourishment – leaving
skin with a beautiful shimmering glow, thanks to glistening mica minerals.
Or for extra-parched skin, try Caudelíe Vine Body Butter (£22 for 225ml,
escentual.com). Rich in nourishing grape-seed oil and shea butter.

FROM WITHIN |

Need yet another reason to eat a healthy,

balanced diet? ‘A rainbow of antioxidant-rich

fruit and vegetables is key for radiant skin,’

says Hughes. ‘In particular, kale, papaya

and spinach encourage healthy skin tone.

Vitamin E – found in pine nuts, avocado,

sunflower oil and hazelnuts – is essential for

protecting against cell damage and

maintaining healthy skin growth.’

Opt for a cold post-workout

shower: cold water constricts

your blood vessels

and closes your pores,

boosting that glow

even more.

●●Lighten the load.

Face Tint (£29 for

out skin tone, provide
