Raise a few temperatures with our essential summer beauty guide

Looking hot this summer means playing it cool. The bare necessities: a skin-care regimen that gives you a sensuous allover glow; arresting makeup in saucy sun-kissed hues; touchable, fuss-free hair; and a tantalizing fragrance that captures summer's breeziness in a bottle. Kick off your summer reading with this sizzling beauty primer designed to save you time so you can devote your energies to more important pursuits--taking a dip, catching some rays (with SPF, of course) or pulling up a chaise poolside.

smooth moves

These methods of defuzzing promise more exposed skin than Temptation Island:

* Razors are best for underarms and legs. For a close shave without nicks, cuts, razor bumps and burns, use a shaving cream or gel (try Skintimate Moisturizing Shave Gel in Soothing Lavender or King of Shaves Alphagel DDS Shaving. Gel) with a razor designed for women, tike Gillette's Venus. Results last one to three days.

* Cream depilatories chemically dissolve hair from the upper lip to arms, legs and the bikini line. Newer formulas, like Nair's Four-Minute Formula Lotion Hair Remover in AppleLicious, act fast and have a pleasant scent. Results last from four to seven days.

* Both sugaring and waxing remove hair at the root and can be used all over your body. One smooth operator: Sally Hansen's No Heat Gel Hair Remover Kit. To minimize irritation, do not exfoliate beforehand and avoid sun, perfumed products and chemical irritants for 24 hours afterward. Results last two to six weeks.

BRAZILIAN WAXING

A Brazilian bikini wax, which shapes the pubic hair into a thin line, is one daringly bare option. To avoid inflaming follicles in this area, Deborah Woods, owner of the Skin Deep spa in Huntington Beach, California, says to be sure the removal strip is completely parallel to the skin before it's pulled off. She also advises treating the area with a triple antibiotic ointment.

the end zone

Getting in the swim of summer can leave your glutes exposed to greater scrutiny. Some products and experts that have got your back:

* Cellulite creams give the backside a face-lift. While they're not exactly liposuction in a bottle, dermatologist Gross explains, "they downplay the ripple effect by toning the skin." Try Phytomer's CelluliMask, Clarins' Body Lift Advanced Cellulite Control and Biotherm's Draine Minceur Skin-Firming Body Massage.
