Jetting off to a tropical paradise? While curating the perfect resort wear wardrobe is key, don’t sleep on your travel beauty bag. In humid, sun-drenched climates, makeup needs to work overtime—think sweatproof, water-resistant, and glow-enhancing. Whether you’re lounging by the pool or beach-hopping all day, we’ve nailed down the products and techniques that deliver a sun-kissed, staying-put finish. Consider this your beauty packing checklist before takeoff.
Start with SPF That Does the Most
Sun protection is non-negotiable. Opt for a tinted sunscreen that doubles as a complexion perfector—it evens tone, blurs imperfections, and protects your face without feeling heavy.
Brighten + Bronze
Lighten up your under eyes with a brightening concealer in a shade slightly lighter than your skin tone. Then, grab a warm bronzer, like the Gucci Sun-Kissed Glow and the Bobbi Brown Bronzer Powder. Sweep it across your cheekbones, nose, and temples for that just-back-from-the-beach radiance.
Keep Brows Groomed, Not Overdone
Use a stronghold brow gel to shape and set your arches – humidity-proof brows are essential. For eyes, skip mascara and liner to avoid smudging. A soft wash of bronzer across the lids adds just enough definition.
Seal It with a Stain (and a Spray)
To perfect your pout, apply a lip stain, allowing it to set before gently removing it. Finally, lock everything in with the Caliray Surfproof Water-Resistant Setting Spray for a fresh, flawless poolside makeup look from morning lattes to sunset cocktails.
