EGG-cellent Easter Weekend Beauty Survival Guide

Posted in 'General' on March 31, 2010
With the Easter Long Weekend, approaching many of us spend time with our family.  Along with the usual Easter eggs, Easter bunny, special Easter Sunday church services, and of course an overload of chocolate, there are many reasons to celebrate Easter but I have noticed that it is fast becoming an Australian tradition to go away over the long weekend. Whether it is a road trip, camping, resort get-away, beach holiday or a fun filled adventure you will still want to make sure you have your beauty roundup to keep you looking good.  If you are anything like me, you normally end up packing far more than you need. So rather than lugging a huge load, here are some egg-cellent suggestions to help you travel light without compromising your look.

Get a sun kissed look by topping up with a layer or two of asap sunless self tanner before you leave home so you don’t feel the need to fry yourself in the damaging sun to get a tan.

Pack a napoleon perdis mesmer-eyes black mascara in waterproof because you want something that is going to withstand humidity, heat and sweat while swimming, dancing and having fun without running, clumping or smudging.

Take a multi-tasking SPF tinted moisturiser instead of foundation.  Invisible zinc tinted daywear spf30+ provides moisturiser, sun protection and sheer coverage all in the one product.

Opt for a tinted lip treatment instead of lipstick, gloss and balm.  Shizen lip conditioner chockie, while fitting into the theme of chocolate for Easter it will also leave your lips soft and subtle with a splash of colour and loads of shine. This all natural lip tint can also be used on cheeks for a flush of colour, expelling the need for yet another product.

Usually you will not have access to hairdryers or straighteners, and often you are swimming or participating in activities that may risk ruining your hair-do.  Why not try spritzing a sea salt spray on damp hair, then scrunch it and air-dry to recreate a simple carefree style. 

A facial spritz such as esthederm cellular water spray is handy to spray on your face throughout the day to keep your skin feeling fresh and hydrated.

Include a simple roll on deodorant instead of heavy perfumes or sprays.  Dermalogica environmental control deodorant is ideal because as well as offering natural odour control it is unisex making it suitable for the whole family.

Monoderma vitamin e capsules are beneficial for keeping your skin looking its best.
