Summer = sun, sea, beach and... chaos in your toiletry bag? Yep, we all know it: that overpacked suitcase where you just forget your favourite sunscreen. This blog is packed with tips to help you shine stress-free on holiday. Whether you’re heading for a week in the sun, planning a city trip, or just staying home, these beauty essentials are a must-have.
1. SPF is your best friend (even when it’s cloudy)
Sun protection is truly a must-have, but how annoying is that white cast on your face or irritated skin after applying sunscreen? The lifesaver? The La Roche Posay Anthelios SPF50+. A real bestseller for a good reason, this sunscreen is made for sensitive skin and leaves no white cast, perfect under your make-up and ideal for daily use. And oh yes, it’s waterreSisistant too. So whether you’re sunbathing or swimming actively, it stays put exactly where it should.
Tip: Officially, sunscreen should be reapplied every two hours! Sweating, eating and drinking wear off UV filters each time. So keep reapplying!
2. An oil that does it all? Hello Nuxe dry oil
Carrying six different bottles? Not necessary. Nuxe Huile Multi Purpose Dry Oil is your all-in-one saviour. Use the Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Dry Oil on your hair ends (frizz-free!), on dry legs, or even as a subtle Glow on your cheekbones. Plus: that scent is summer in a bottle!
Why is Nuxe oil a must-have in your suitcase?
- Nourishes your skin after a day in the sun
- Absorbs quickly
- Smoothes your hair without weighing it down
- Hand luggage friendly
- Delightful scent
3. Lip & Cheek multitasker = space saver
Taking make-up on holiday? Keep it Simply. The Benefit Playtint is a lip & cheek stain that gives you a fresh flush and coloured lips, without worrying about melting. The Benetint Lip & Cheek Stain is Perfect for warm days when foundation feels like too much.
Tip: Apply a little to your cheeks and blend with your fingers, done in 30 seconds. No mirror, no stress. Just a lovely natural look!
4. Protect your hair from chlorine, salt and sun
Swimming is wonderful, but your hair sometimes disagrees. Chlorine, salt and sun dry out your hair and can affect colour. The Umberto Giannini Swim Proof Cream protects your locks like sunscreen for your hair. Apply a small amount before entering the sea or pool, and rinse out in the evening.
Who is the Umberto Giannini Swim Proof Cream for?
- Curls who don’t want straw-like hair
- Blondes who want to keep their colour
- Anyone who wants to care for their hair well on holiday (suitable for all hair types)
5. Minis for maximum convenience – travel Sizes
