ON-TREND WINTER WARMERS
It goes without saying that staying warm on the slopes is vital. However, that doesn't mean that you have to sacrifice your style while doing so. Indeed, there are many options for warming winter clothing and accessories that lean towards the higher end.
In particular, look out for pieces like this beanie bobble hat which comes in soft wool, bright colors, is handmade, and totally washable. They even have neck warmers and snuggly slipper socks to wear around the chalet to match.
Oh, and you might wish to invest in a few designer pieces for the slopes too. After all, brands like Chanel are famous for their ski wear such as fur headbands, zebra bodysuits and even their own line of Chanel branded skis!
WATERPROOF MAKEUP AND SOME PAMPERING FOR YOUR SKIN
Whizzing down the slopes at high speed is a lot of fun. However, that freezing cold air can play havoc with your skin, and make looking your best something of a challenge. That is why it's best to be prepared ahead of time and make sure that you pack both waterproof makeup, and some skin treats that will help to keep it moisturized and hydrated.
In particular, be sure to pack waterproof mascara as your eyes are likely to water on the slopes. You can use camouflage foundation for a fuller coverage too, just be sure to finish with both sweating spray and loose power for maximum staying power, no matter what the weather.
When it comes to skin treats, be sure to pack a high factor SPF, and some intensive moisturizer as well. Of course, brands like La Mere do an option perfect for the slopes, at CA $15.75 a pot.
YOUR SWIMSUIT
You may think that the last item you will need on a vacation that is primarily about snow, is your swimsuit. However, if you want to have the best time, and look your best on a skiing holiday, you will need to pack a swimsuit or two as well as all your winter gear. After all, most high-end hotels and chalets have hot tubs, and many have pools to enjoy apres-ski as well.
In fact, a nice dip in some warm water isn't only a luxe experience but will help ease your mussels and joins and alleviate inflammation from a hard day on the slopes. Not to mention that you will want to get some great ‘here's me in my bikini in the pool’ in front of the shots of the snowy mountain for #Insta!
