Get yourself smooth, bright and glowing for the summer!

Is there anything better than a tan? With holidays abroad possible cancelled until 2021, we can glow from the bottle because it's safer, and let's gace it, easier all round than trying to catch a day of sun in Ireland.

Before the tan there comes hair removal and why not try some Sugar-Coated Wax? It is new to Ireland and 100 per cent natural and made from just sugar and water, making it the first wax registered with The Vegan Society. It is also approved as cruelty-free under the Leaping Bunny programme.

It is super easy to use and completely water soluble, with easy to use washable and reusable strips - no more messy spills ruining carpets and clothes! It does not damage the skin and prevents ingrown hairs and strips can be washed and reused – yay for sustainability! The product is instantly biodegradable, and packaging is fully recyclable and eco-friendly, too.

A white smile is the next step and you can achieve that with Polished London. The Teeth Whitening LED Kit (€60) is a key product for safe, comfortable and easy to use whitening. Combining advanced LED dual light technology and safe peroxide-free gel, which is developed and tested by UK dentists, it provides an effective whitening and oral hygiene treatment in just 10-15 minutes depending on if you choose between the accelerated whitening or a combined whitening, sterilising and odour reduction option. Gel refills are also available for €24.

The Teeth Whitening Strips (€30) are a mainstay in the Polished London catalogue, and the sell-out answer to achieving a visibly whiter smile in just 14 days, if used for 30 minutes daily. These comfortable and discreet strips gently remove light stains while whitening teeth. For deeper stains, use the strips for 60 minutes per day.

Bring the beach to you this summer with Bondi Sands new Aero Ultra Dark foam (€25). The lightweight aero formula promises to feel featherlight, be touch-dry in seconds and to then deepen into the ultimate Aussie beach babe glow, even on the palest of Irish skin. The weightless, quick dry formula offers fake tanners the most controlled and comfortable self-tanning experience yet. Aerated tanning is the new way to get your glow on in 2020 and keep you looking flawless all summer long, and beyond.

The Bondi Sands Aero formula contains dual-action tanning actives to achieve a deep and long-lasting colour. Enriched with vitamin E and jojoba, both known to assist in skin moisturisation, Aero Ultra Dark also intensely hydrates and nourishes, resulting in prolonged tan longevity. Combined with Bondi Sands’ award-winning salon quality formula and signature coconut scent, Aero Ultra Dark provides the ultimate deep bronzed glow. Aero Ultra Dark is the newest range to join Bondi Sands’ broad range of oils, mists, foams and lotions.
