How to Get Your Skin Summer-Ready: 5 Natural Bath & Body Tips for Glowing Confidence

Summer holidays are on the horizon — and if the thought of showing skin at the beach feels a little daunting, you're not alone. At Hampshire Spa, SenSpa, we believe in feeling confident and glowing from head to toe. We asked holistic skincare expert Sarah Brown to share her top natural body care tips to get your skin smooth, hydrated, and summer-ready.
From exfoliation to SPF and foot care, here’s your full-body guide to looking and feeling your best this season.
1. Full Body Exfoliation for Glowing Skin
Exfoliate 2–3 times per week to boost cell turnover, remove dull skin, and reveal a fresh, radiant complexion. This also improves the absorption of your moisturiser or body oil.
Try the revitalising and cooling ESPA Exfoliating Body Polish.
2. Hydrate with Natural Moisturisers
After exfoliating, lock in hydration with a natural body butter or oil. Moisturising after bathing helps seal in moisture, making skin soft and supple.
Pro tip: Layer an oil like ESPA Restorative Bath & Body Oil under SenSpa Nourishing Body Butter for a double-hydration boost.
3. Use SPF Daily - Not Just on Holiday
Daily sun protection is essential to prevent sunburn, aging, and pigmentation. Use broad-spectrum SPF on all exposed areas — even on cloudy days.
4. Stay Hydrated from Within
Drinking plenty of water will help to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out but remembering to drink can be a little tricky. Jazzing up your water with lime, lemon, mint, and other herbs can make reaching for your water bottle more enticing or why not try a superfood shot, smoothies, shakes or even a cooling ice pop.
5. Don't Forget Your Feet!
Before slipping into sandals, give your feet the attention they deserve. A foot scrub followed by a nourishing balm like Willow Beauty Luxury Organic Foot Cream helps smooth dry heels and rough patches, leaving your feet soft, fresh, and summer-ready.
Want a deeper refresh? Treat yourself to a professional pedicure. Not only will it leave your toes looking polished, but it also improves circulation and removes built-up skin more effectively than at-home care alone.
