As temperatures go up and Memorial Day approaches, many people's thoughts turn abroad. Late spring and early summer are the busiest times of the year to plan a trip. Where will you be going this year? If you happen to still be planning your summer holiday, try considering a "Beauty Tour!"  1. Los Angeles to Sydney, Australia: Holiday travel means bathing suits, so what better way than to start your trip with minimizing your stretch marks! Australian aboriginal women rub yarrow extract on their skin to help prevent stretch marks and smooth skin. Its anti-inflammatory properties can also help calm skin's complexion and add moisturize. 

 

3.  Israel to Cairo, Egypt:  Luxurious baths and spas are common throughout the Middle East, and there is good reason they are so prolific! Egyptian women swear that taking long baths (versus quick showers) is the secret to silky smooth skin. To bump up the smoothing power, add two cups of powdered milk to the warm water, then enter and let it work its milky magic.  

 

4.  Cairo to Stockholm, Sweden: Go from the desert's outdoor sauna to an indoor spa one. Saunas are a huge part of the Swedish culture, and here's why:  the extremely dry heat is another method of removing toxins from the skin, and it is very relaxing, too. Although not quite as popular stateside, saunas are offered in the US in many spas. Just check to make sure they are properly maintained before committing to a session.
