The beach is the place where you can eye the good looking lifeguards, or some pretty looking girls. And for you to get their attention, you need to look good at the beach. No one, I am sure, will look at a haggard looking person, with unkempt hair or torn shorts! You have to look your best and for looking good on the beach, you have to know how to do so. Here are some tips which you can follow.

Get the Beach Bod

Since you are spending most of your time at the beach, there are various ways in which you can look good even in T- shirts and shorts or in a swimsuit. Just follow the tips given below and don't be surprised by the admiring looks that you get the next time you are at the beach.

Be Happy With What You Have
Okay, so you are still busy burning the calories you picked up in spring. You may not quiet have the hourglass figure that you would have loved but do not be shy. Be happy with what you have. You cannot change it overnight, can you? Be confident with what you have, be proud of what you have got. If you are confident, no one can ever say anything to you.

Color That Suits You
While choosing a swimsuit, make sure that you choose a color that suits you and your skin tone. If you have pale skin, then it is best that you go for pastel shades. Dark skinned people should go for colors like lime green or electric blue. You can also try out a color of shocking lemon yellow. If you want, you can also try out black or white color. But it's the beach for heavens sake! So wear something bright.

Get a Tan
Instead of envying the beautiful tan of others, go get a tan for yourself. The winters, you can visit the tanning salon or maybe, after applying some sunscreen lotion on your body, just soak in the sun the next time you are at the beach. Nothing looks better than a healthy tan.

Light Makeup
For girls, see to it that you apply as minimal makeup as possible. Use a proper SPF moisturizer, apply some waterproof makeup so that it doesn't run off when you are in the water. You can tie back your hair with a bright colorful scrunchy. This will give you a feel like you are enjoying a summer vacation in Hawaii! You can also get the beach hair look with damp hair, or just leave some loose curls around your face.

Proper Accessories
If you think that wearing heels at the beach is appropriate, then you are wrong. Imagine walking on the sand with your high heels on. Brrrr! So go grab some colorful flip flops; the brighter the better. When it comes to your beach bag choose something that is big enough to hold all your makeup items and clothes and is also bright and colorful. Choose a nice pair of sunglasses that will protect your eyes from the sun and at the same time that will make you look cool. Girls, you can also use shell necklaces for a more beach like look.

Be Yourself
Boys and girls, just remember one thing. If looking good on the beach is important for you for the attention of the opposite gender, then just be yourself. Do not pose in an unruly manner when at the beach. Remember the scene from the movie Legally Blonde, the 'bend and snap' part, in order to attract the eye of a guy? Well, don't do that here! Let a person get attracted to you as you are.

Well, there you have it - some tips which are sure to make you look good at the beach. Just follow them and have a whole lot of confidence in you and you are bound to get some good attention. Dress well and act well - that's all you need!
