They say a summer body is made in winter, so if you’re currently hiding that winter skin behind the 80-denier now is the time to start prepping. With this in mind, we’ve been incorporating LouLouBelle London’s Mango & Lime Himalayan Salt Body Scrub into our beauty regime once a week.

This natural body scrub blends exfoliating and hydrating Himalayan salt with mango butter and peach oil to moisturise. The glorious combination has scrubbed away our dull, lack lustre winter skin to reveal a brighter, fresh, glowing tone ready to come out of hibernation. The added aroma of orange, lemon, lime, pine and Cypress essential oils lingers on the skin all day, lifting the spirits as we stroll into spring and start getting mentally ready for baring some flesh.

Mango & Lime Himalayan Salt Body Scrub costs £22.50 for 200g. louloubelleskincare.co.uk. See LouLouBelle London at Wealden Times Midsummer Fair. wealdentimes.co.uk/events
