Getcho Gorgeous On

I'm feeling a bit girly today, like I'm overdue for one of those sleep-overs girls have when we were (errr...) young (and a little too eager with the nail varnish).

Anyway, I was thinking that it might be neat to hear tips from other people on how they stay gorgeous in the heat (without packing the entire bathroom)...

Like I don't bother packing a hair dryer -- if you've got natural waves or curls, don't even try fighting it. Let the heat & humidity work it's magic and go -- don't waste valuable party time doing hair. I also pack funky little hair clips to keep it all up.

Anyone else? Or should I just read Cosmo on the commute home tonight... :confused:
 
well snap re hair, i don't bother straightneing or anyting like that, i shove it all up ontop of my head, need to be as cool as a cucumber

i never wear make up at home soo certainly don't wear it in ibiza! firstly you have a tan and secondly there's nothing worse then feeling mascara at 7am all bitty and stuff

i like to take this spray gun that squirts water at me during my sweatness whilst clubbing

hmm what else.............

no matter what you can't avoid lookin a bit rough at the end of a big night! but you still no matter what look great with a big fat GRIN on ya face :D
 
Oooh can I join you Mrs D I love girlie talk :D ;)

Yeah sometimes I wear my hair curly on holiday cos it's not worth straightening it, but I had my hair all cut off on Sat into bob :eek: so I'm hoping it's just going to fall into place this year :rolleyes: :confused: :p

I also like 2 little plaits/pig-tail things on holiday, but my hair will be too short for that this year :rolleyes: they're always good tho if you can't be bothered to do hair.
 
Drink loadsa water to keep my skin fresh!!! also moisturise loads!! apply fake tan/wax legs ect so no shaving nicks!!!! :D
Also allow hair to dry naturally!!! It lightens in the sun too!!!! yay!
Dont wear make up and get your lashes tinted before you go to save you from panda eyes!!!hehe
 
And lip gloss, lip gloss, lip gloss :D If I could only have one piece of make-up it would be lip-gloss :p
 
I try to keep make up to a minimum when I’m away. I try not to wear any foundation on my face as I find it ends up looking shiny. When my face is tanned all I need is a bit of concealer to cover up the dark circles (YSL touché elclat is my absolute favourite), some nice eye make up (but nothing too heavy) and some lip gloss. :D

i agree one bit of make up would be gloss orr i do like vasaline the one int he small blue round tub just for your lips, is soooooooo creamy ;)
 
Mac Lip Glass is the best lip gloss in the entire world. Or Juicy Tubes by Lancome.

No I never wear foundation even in this country, just wear tinted moisturiser.

I tell you what I have bought, don't know if anyone has seen them, the new Lancombe coloured mascaras - how cool :D I couldn't choose between the blue one or the pink one so I bought both :p
 
Actually, another thing you can do with vaseline... We're talking beauty tips here...
I occasionally use it as a glossy highlighter for eyelids and cheekbones when you've got a glowy tan. The trick is to apply SPARINGLY -- otherwise you look more slimy than sexy :eek:
So glossy stuff is another thing for sure!

Also, I don't know if you have this brand in the UK -- Sugar??? Anyway, they do little glosses and stuff that taste like sugar! Like sugar cookies -- not too much, but YUM! (I like it, even though I think Mr D is way creeped out by it)

I’ve never tried Stila, but I keep reading in magazines how good it is. As soon as my Mac is finished I’m going to buy that.
 
Juicy Tubes are the best. I love the Cerise one with sparkly bits.

All I tend to wear makeup-wise on holiday is black waterproof mascara (Lancome are excellent) and bronzing powder to show-off my tan. I like the Body Shop's one which also contains stuff for keeping mosquitos at bay, which can be helpful. That and maybe some whitey-silvery eye shadow to bring out my eyes against the tan.

Remember, perfume is affected by the heat to wear a lighter fragrance.

Also, take a really good intensive conditioner (such as Kerastase) for use every night between beach and clubbing.

thats is great tip, only thing i would be worried about is the vasaline melting off my face! then i realy would look like a slimy sweaty scarry thing! ;)
 
I want to get my eyelashes tinted before i go so i wont have to wear mascara,never had it done before but i heard it fades after a few weeks,seeing as im planning on staying out there for a couple of months (hopefully) i was wondering does anyone know of any good beauty salons in ibiza where i could get em re-done??not too expensive mind as im only a poor student!!
