Bikini’s are so wonderful, they have an entire day devoted to celebrating them! National Bikini Day seems like the perfect time to take a look at a few (of many) reasons why Bikini’s continue to be the ultimate icon of comfort, style, freedom, and confidence!
The evolution of the bikini’s design solidified its status as a symbol of freedom and fun, and National Bikini Day is an instant call to action for sun and water worshippers everywhere to suit up and hit the beach or pools! You don’t need to prepare much to sport your favorite two-piece to celebrate bikini day, or any day in the summer, but what all that’s been going on in the world this year, you’re definitely going to want to take advantage of the time to slip away for some relaxing fun in the sun. So here are of our favorite reasons to start rocking your bikinis!
They’re made for everyBODY
Steps to getting a bikini body? Step one, physically put your body in a bikini, and that’s literally it! Many women shy away from wearing the separate swimsuit because of low confidence, or fear of public scrutiny, but National Bikini Day, and really ANY day is a good time to take charge and reclaim your power of having a true ‘bikini body’! You have to stop hiding your body away from the sunlight and wear a style that makes you feel confident. A good thing to keep in mind is that many people share this sentiment, but with everyone focusing on themselves, no one has time to judge you for what you’re wearing. The power of the bikini is that you get to show off your beautiful skin and soak up the sun, no matter where you are!
They take up little to no space when packing for vacations
Even if you’re opting for a ‘staycation’ during COVID-19, you should always keep a space in your bag or dresser drawers for your swimsuits. You never know when you’ll get the opportunity or the urge to lay by the pool, head to the beach, or just head outside soak up the sun. The swimwear you choose for your wardrobe and travel bag should be comfortable, fun, and easily pair with favorite summer staples. It’s a good idea to purchase a swimsuit that can easily and stylishly be born with a skirt, shorts or loose pants to make a great pool-party outfit. You can also wear a cute kimono or sundress as a cover-up until you’re ready to reveal your stunning swimsuit. Don’t forget to accessorize with a matching sunhat and sunglasses. No matter what you wear with your swimsuit, don’t forget the sunscreen!
They make it easy to enjoy a tan in no time
Sunbathing is all a part of the bikini-wearing experience. As you are enjoying the rays of sun baking your body to achieve an all-over golden tone, remember to apply sun cream appropriate to your skin type, after all a tan is what we want, not burns! Prepare yourself the best tanning experience with some skincare prep work before you lay out in the sun.
First, start by booking yourself a body wax at least a day before you plan your sunbathing excursion. Wax your legs, arms, chest, stomach, and of course your bikini line. Anywhere you plan to bronze and show off. After waxing, be sure to exfoliate to nourish your skin and remove any hair, dead skin cells, etc. to help you tan more evenly. In order to achieve the ultimate suntan, you should lay a towel out, along with a pillow to rest your head and arrange your straps to suit the type of tan you want.
Overexposure to the sun’s rays can cause burning, freckles, wrinkles, age spots, and changes in texture. Apply an SPF that works for your skin type and tone. After sunbathing, to help you keep that beautiful, soft, sun-kissed look, exfoliate again, and apply a nice, lightweight moisturizer after your bath or shower.
You get a reason to show off your smooth, sunkissed skin!
Suns out, buns out— not to mention, bikinis allow the body to enough exposure to fully absorb vitamin D which is helpful in aiding hyperpigmentation and can also help treat skin conditions like dry skin, psoriasis, or eczema. You can also apply the Barra Brightening Cream to help even out your complexion to get even tanning results! After all of that, what better way to put your efforts on display than in your favorite new bathing suit? After all, nothing feels sexier than coming out of the ocean or pool knowing you’re rocking smooth, glowing skin and an amazing bathing suit! Bikinis allow you to show off your sun-kissed glow all summer long!
If you want to show off smooth skin this summer, try exfoliating and moisturizing. Exfoliation is the removal of dead skin cells that make skin appear sallow and rough.
