How to Achieve That Après Ski Glow

Get the look whether you’re at home or hitting the slopes …

I confess to not really getting skiing – so repetitive, so much effort. The après-ski glow, though, I aspire to. Strategically placed cool blush is the easiest way – try Nars’ icy pink Loves Me Not. Something like Bobbi Brown’s Illuminating Moisture Balm brightens the skin instantly, even if it’s dulled by winter excesses. You could also have a blast of cryotherapy (ice facials – all the chill, none of the thermals). If you are actually heading to the slopes, however, start your skin protection right now: Biologique Recherche’s Préparation UV prepares skin for sun exposure in advance. For a properly weathered, post-slope glow without any skin damage (see Anna Sui SS20, above, for a guide), buff on Amanda Harrington face tan (at Harvey Nichols), or a face-warming bronzer. Lots of lip balm is essential for the ski vibe, real or imagined: grab a pot of Pommade Divine, a heavy-duty favourite, or Arden’s trusty Eight Hour Cream. For show-offs, it has to be Buly’s all-natural lip balm personalised with your initials on (vegetable) leather. It’s worth knowing, too, that Charlotte Tilbury has extended her endlessly flattering cult nude-pink Pillow Talk shade to include everything from eyeliner to Lip Lustre.
