Expert Advice For A Fun & Confident Day At The Beach!
Having a fun, carefree summer-the season for shorts, tank tops and bikinis-is all about feeling confident. Yet, donning that teeny-weeny bikini can make anyone feel insecure and vulnerable. One way to beat those insecurities is by being prepared, and no one knows it better than Tracey Crothers, a California lifeguard who spends her whole summer on the beach. Here are a few tips from Tracey to get teens through the summer feeling-and looking-their confident best!
Suit up! According to Tracey, “I know how important it is to find a suit that fits right. After all, I have to feel confident and strong in a bathing suit no matter what time of the month it is.” Tracey’s advice when suit-shopping is to “take along an honest friend whose taste you trust.”
Treat your feet: Treat your toes to a pretty summer pedicure and be sure to complement them by wearing a great-looking pair of thong sandals-which will also help keep feet protected from hot sand and debris on the beach. Another Tracey tip: “A sprinkle of baby powder makes sand brush right off skin!”
