Modelinia's Guide to Getting Runway-Ready Legs

By Fabiana Santana
Summer is right around the corner, and soon you’ll be breaking out the bikini, and those minis and shorts you spent all spring stocking up on. Seems like the perfect time to glam up your gams, model style.

For soft and radiant stems like Marisa Miller’s, incorporate a body scrub into your beauty regimen; it helps get rid of dead skin cells, making legs feel soft and smooth. Bliss’ Hot Salt Scrub is a self-heating sea salt formula that also contains rosemary and eucalyptus oils. So not only does it exfoliate, but you’ll smell amazing as well.

It’s an unfortunate fact of life, but cellulite is something that most women must combat. Try a slimming cream made with stimulating ingredients to get blood circulating. Neutrogena’s Anti-Cellulite Treatment, Retinol Formula contains retinol—the purest form of vitamin A—as well as caffeine and seaweed, a natural detoxifier, to help legs look smoother and firmer.

Alessandra Ambrosio recommends using bronzing oil for perfect-looking legs. To keep them runway-ready, the Victoria’s Secret model uses Bare Bronze Moisturizing Body Oil from the VS line of beauty products. Skin-nourishing Brazilian ingredients like buriti and babassu oils hydrate and nourish the skin.

A lightweight self-tanner will add instant color to winter-white legs. Clarins Self Tanning Instant Gel is instantly absorbed, so you get results in as little as two hours.

Want legs that shimmer like Gisele’s? Try Kings & Queens Shimmering Body Milk enriched with pomegranate, blue Egyptian lotus, and myrrh. Yes, myrrh—as in one of the gifts of the three Magis, which was thought to be as valuable as gold in ancient times. And for good reason: This luxe milk is chock-full of medicinal properties to rehydrate legs and leave them looking radiant just in time for those summer shorts.
