With only a few weeks to go until holiday season, the all-important beauty countdown has begun, and here at soFem HQ we're frantically preparing our beach bods ready to recline on our sun loungers supping mojitos. To get in tip-top condition for your hol, follow our beach babe guide to getting groomed and gorgeous in time for take-off.

First of all, prepare to tan, then get grooming silky skin, glossy locks and gorgeous feet, and finally, a pre-sun glow, toned bod and sexy hands...and you'll be ready to dazzle.
