Your flights are booked. The hotel’s confirmed. You’ve set aside your coziest pajamas. Now, time to pack your beauty bags and embrace a holiday adventure with sun, snow or something in between. Take cues from three stylish women spending their winter breaks abroad with family, friends and an indefatigable glow. Don’t forget your passport!
The Beach Getaway
For fashion consultant Viki LeFèvre, a winter seaside look comes down to three words: golden hour light. All luminous, balmy skin and a touch of sun-kissed flush for an outdoor jaunt through Capetown, South Africa.
Get Viki's Look
To start, Liquid Super Loaded Tinted Highlight in Peau de Pêche evens out skin with sheer color corrective pearl that adds a hint of gleam. Baby Cheeks in Garconne brings sun-kissed rosiness to cheeks and across the bridge of the nose. And to juice up your lip’s natural tone, swipe on Lip Suede Matte Lipstick in Je Rêve. Done!
The Ski Destination
On the slopes of Switzerland and après-ski, Gucci streamlines her beauty routine. Braving sun and wind, proper skincare is critical—or go for an optional dip in the local cold plunge to energetically boost skin circulation.
Get Gucci's Look
First things first—double up on serums, layering Skin Activator Serum to hydrate, plump and soothe, followed by Suprême C Serum to brighten and control pigmentation issues from UV rays bouncing off the snowy slopes. This preps skin for a good sunscreen—Gucci loves La Rosée Sun Milk SPF50. For a touch of rosy warmth, try Lip Suede Matte Lipstick in Piqué on lips and cheeks—the refillable bullet tucks conveniently into a ski pant pocket for easy touch-ups.
The City Escape
When British beauty Marilyn Nwawulor-Kazemak steps out for a city hopping adventure in Spain, she keeps things cool and polished—perfect for hitting museums, tapas stops, artisan’s shops and historic sites.
Get Marilyn's Look
Set the stage with a refined canvas: Vital Skin Foundation Stick evens everything out, while a touch of Vital Skincare Concealer erases dark circles. For dimension, Face Trace Contour Stick defines cheeks, temples and jawlines, and Lit Up Highlight Stick adds a light-catching concentrated pop where you want it. Finish by sweeping away unwanted shine with Vital Pressed Skincare Powder and dab on Lip Suede Matte Lipstick in Rue—a tawny chestnut brown lip that’s ready for anything.
