Are you wondering how to prepare for a bikini competition? If so, here is an in depth bikini competition prep timeline AND packing list from 3 months out to 3 days out from competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prepare For A Bikini Competition 3 Months Out:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Order your RAVISH SANDS suit: <\/a><\/strong>(use my code for a discount \u201cPamelaj\u201d) Make sure you discuss suit details with your coach before ordering! There are many aspects of the suit cut and stoning that influence the final look on show day. DO NOT ORDER without asking your coach about \u201csuit cut\u201d and details. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hire and meet with a posing coach once a week until show day:<\/a> <\/strong>PLEASE also discuss the hiring of your posing coach with your prep coach! This is super important. Your coach and posing coach should have a good working relationship and be in communication with each other regarding every aspect of your competition package. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Order a pre tan kit <\/strong>appropriate for your competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Order show shoes. <\/a><\/strong>if you have not done so, I highly recommend ordering them from The Shoe Fairy. Use code \u201cPamelaj\u201dfor a discount!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Order 2 pairs of all jewelry.<\/strong> Earrings, bracelets, rings–trust me! I ordered from AMAZON. Super cheap and fast!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Order AMILEAN lotion<\/strong> to be used on those stubborn fatty areas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be sure and make that cardio and nutrition top priority!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prepare for A Bikini Competition 2 Months Out:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Register for classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Book your competition tanning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Book your competition makeup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Book your competition hair services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Order clip in extensions if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Begin skin prep for your bikini competition tan and if you are going the  DIY route (Louann Coconut oil and brown sugar scrub), you can use Hemp original lotion all week too. Please use daily!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get your show nails done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get a wax no later than Tuesday of show week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bleach those teeth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No more artificial sweeteners. And for that matter, it\u2019s likely a good idea to stick with only whole foods. No dairy, no gluten, no nightshades–all low FODMAP if possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prepare for A Bikini Competition 3 Days Out:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
