Pre-Vacation Beauty Checklist: Get Ready to Relax!
Summer vacation is on the horizon, and while you’re busy planning your itinerary, don’t forget to prep your beauty routine! A little foresight can save you time and stress when you’re trying to relax. At Brishti’s Beauty Parlour in Scarborough, we’ve put together the ultimate checklist to help you get vacation-ready from head to toe.
1. Silky Smooth Skin: All About Hair Removal
Say goodbye to daily shaving and hello to longer-lasting smoothness. Whether you prefer waxing or threading, getting these done a few days before your trip ensures your skin is calm and ready for the sun. This is especially key for beach holidays!
- Timing is everything: Book your waxing or threading appointment 2–3 days before you leave to allow any redness or sensitivity to subside.
- Post-treatment care: Keep your skin hydrated and avoid direct sun exposure immediately after.
2. Perfect Pout & Piercing Gaze: Lash & Brow Enhancements
Want to wake up looking refreshed and ready without a full face of makeup? Lash lifts and tints can be your best friends on vacation. Imagine long, curled lashes and defined brows that stay put through swims and adventures.
- Lash Lift & Tint: Opens up your eyes and provides a natural, mascara-like effect that lasts weeks.
- Brow Tinting & Shaping: Defines your brows for a polished look, even without makeup.
3. Mani-Pedi Perfection: Nail Care for Travel
From sandy beaches to exploring new cities, your hands and feet will be on display. Treat yourself to a manicure and pedicure before you go. Opt for gel polish for a chip-free shine that lasts the entire vacation.
- Gel Polish: Durable and long-lasting, perfect for resisting wear and tear from sun, sand, and water.
- Pedicure Prep: Don't forget a thorough pedicure to get your feet sandal-ready!
4. Skincare Essentials: Travel-Sized Smart Choices
While you might be tempted to bring your entire skincare cabinet, vacation calls for a streamlined approach. Pack travel-sized versions of your essential cleanser, moisturizer, and, most importantly, SPF! Keep your routine simple but effective.
- Sunscreen: A non-negotiable! Pack a broad-spectrum SPF for your face and body.
- Hydrating Mist: Perfect for a quick refresh on hot days or during long flights.
5. Emergency Beauty Kit: Just in Case
Even with the best prep, little beauty blips can happen. Pack a small kit with essentials like a mini nail file, tweezers, and any specific after-sun care or spot treatments you might need. Being prepared means less worry and more fun!
With this checklist from Brishti’s Beauty Parlour, you’ll be stepping onto that plane or hitting the road feeling confident, beautiful, and ready to truly relax. Book your pre-vacation appointments today and let us help you get ready for an unforgettable summer!
