Vacation season is just around the corner, and many of us dream of perfectly groomed skin that can handle sun, sand, and sea. To feel your best on holiday, it's smart to start a targeted body care routine a few weeks in advance. The MONLIS Studio Munich team shares their best tips for preparing your skin to look fresh and radiant throughout your trip.

1. Exfoliation: The Perfect Starting Point

Exfoliation is a must before any vacation, especially if you plan to enjoy a lot of sun. A gentle body scrub removes dead skin cells, promotes cell renewal, and helps your skin tan more evenly. It also primes the skin for better absorption of moisturizers. MONLIS Studio recommends exfoliating 1–2 times per week during the four weeks leading up to your holiday to keep your skin soft and supple.

2. Deep Hydration: Moisturize Head to Toe

Intensive hydration is key to making your skin resilient to sun and saltwater. Before your trip, daily use of rich body lotions or oils should be a staple in your routine. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, and plant oils (such as almond or jojoba oil) to deeply nourish your skin and prevent dryness.

3. Hair Removal: Plan Ahead

If you want smooth skin for your vacation, make sure to schedule hair removal in advance. Whether it’s waxing, sugaring, or laser treatments, allow your skin time to heal afterward. MONLIS Studio recommends booking waxing or sugaring sessions about 3–5 days before departure to ensure any redness subsides before your trip.

4. Don’t Forget Your Feet

Feet often take center stage in summer. A professional pedicure not only ensures well-groomed nails but also keeps skin soft and smooth. Regular foot scrubs and rich creams prevent calluses and cracks – your feet will thank you, whether you're in sandals or barefoot on the beach.

5. Body Wraps & Firming Treatments

For extra pampering and firmer skin, consider adding body wraps or firming treatments to your pre-holiday prep. Algae or caffeine wraps stimulate circulation, support lymphatic drainage, and leave the skin looking plumper and fresher. MONLIS Studio offers a variety of such treatments for a visible boost before your trip.

6. Prepare for Sun Exposure

Even if you won’t be sunbathing until you arrive, it’s a good idea to prep your skin in advance. Creams with beta-carotene or specific supplements can help make your skin more resilient to UV rays. And don’t forget: a high-quality sunscreen is a must-have in your travel bag!

The right preparation makes all the difference: a thoughtful skincare routine not only makes your skin feel better but also leaves it looking radiant and healthy. The team at MONLIS Studio Munich offers personalized advice and professional treatments to help you get ready for your vacation in the best way possible. Treat yourself before you travel – you’ll see and feel the results!
