In case you were wondering why every straight guy you know is staying in tonight, the Victoria’s Secret Swim Special airs at 9/8c on CBS. While watching preternaturally gorgeous models strutting around in bikinis does have us signing up for an extra spin class (and planning our next tropical vacation), we’re mostly mesmerized by their boundless beach-side confidence. We decided to ask Victoria’s Secret model Romee Strijd to share her tips for looking—and feeling—your best in a bikini pic. Here’s what she said.
Find A Flattering Bikini
Victoria's Secret Wrap Halter Bikini Top, $50
"Having a bikini you feel confident is super important. I’m loving The Wrap Halter and The Knockout Bikini from this year’s Victoria’s Secret swim collection. It’s sporty but also really sexy!”
Keep Your Skin Hydrated
Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist, $35
"I also always have moisturizer and rose water spray in my bag to keep my skin hydrated when I'm spending a day in the sun."
