Whether you’re enjoying a long weekend in the Med or sipping cocktails at a poolside bar, it’s all about the glamour.

For those staying in Blighty, channel your patriotic side with Butter London’s Royal Navy nail polish. If you’re heading further afield, this summer’s trend for rainbow brights and dayglo neons are perfect for getting you in the holiday mood.

For nails, slick on Collection 2000’s Hot Looks Nail Polish in Blue Hawaii. For a perfectly pink pout, opt for Mac’s Surf Baby Lipglass in Girls on Board.

For the eyes, choose Givenchy’s Le Prisimissine Eyes – a stunning palette of nine rainbow colours, or Benefit’s Like What You Sea, which is a beautifully silky eye shadow in a sparkling sea blue.

If you’re planning on soaking up the sun but want to keep your complexion shine-free, avoid products that will clog pores. “Use lightly textured products and make sure your skin is completely cleansed before leaving the house,” says skincare expert and facialist to the stars Ole Henriksen.
