‘A dry brushing massage is the very best way to enhance the beauty of the skin on the body.’

Put a handful of sea salts into your bath – it’s an absolute must to stop skin getting wrinkly and provides essential minerals to maintain your body’s natural ph balance.

To avoid the irritation of ingrown hairs use MD Formulations’ Pedicreme, £26, pedicure cream everyday on the bikini line (but not 24 hours before or 24 hours after waxing). Feet have hard skin so the product has a high percentage of glycolic acid to slough away the tough patches , when used on the bikini line it eliminates the dead skin which blocks the follicles’.

‘Dispose of loofers, they make lovely homes for germs as they remove dry skin which is essentially dead skin cells and toxins. Use a dry body brush instead.’

‘Before going out make sure to dab perfume on all of those areas where your veins are close to the surface of your skin. Because the skin is warmer here it will help to make the most of the scent.’

‘I love to do a coffee and sugar body scrub which is great for cellulite. You simply mix equal parts finely ground, brown sugar with finely ground coffee and mix with enough sesame oil to create a thick soft paste that will allow for a smooth glide across the body. Work your way from your feet upward and be sure to turn the shower head away while applying the scrub so it doesn’t all wash away, your skin should be damp but not soaking wet.’
