The Ski Bunny

Summers spent on the slopes can wreak havoc on your skin, so here are some of the best products that work both on and off the snow.

Kiehl’s Cross-Terrain UV Face Protector SPF 50 Dh155

Ski bunnies need to be aware of sun and wind damage, so your regular SPF just won’t do. A favourite of professional sportswomen, this powerful protector fights against the strongest sun and wind, and it’s water and sweat resistant.

Elizabeth Eight Hour Cream Lip Protectant Stick Sheer Tint SPF15 Blush Dh99

Don’t forget to protect your pout too, as the harsh skiing climate can cause serious damage and dryness to your smile. Enriched with nourishing vitamin E and boasting SPF15 protection, this stick softens and soothes whilst protecting against the sun, and it loads lips with a flush of beautiful sheer colour.

Becca Après Ski Glow Face Palette Dh261

The name of this palette really says it all, as it’s the ultimate way to get a gorgeous glow off the slopes. It contains everything from an icy highlighter to a berry-hued blush, and you can use it to perfect your peepers too.

Espa Muscle Rescue Balm Dh259 A day whizzing down the slopes can leave legs (and limbs) feeling tired and achy – so give them some TLC with this rescue balm.

Its invigorating blend of cooling peppermint and eucalyptus and warming clove bud rejuvenates and revitalises muscles to keep you feeling great and fighting fit on the snow.

Dior Diorshow Black Out Waterproof Mascara Dh179 Mascara streaming down your face on the slopes is never a good look, so be sure to invest in a superstrength waterproof mascara that withstands the wind – like this magic wand from Dior, which will stay perfectly put all day long.

Oribe Foundation Mist Dh118

Say goodbye to matted windswept hair and hello to luscious, knot-free locks with this deep conditioning spray. Don’t be fooled by its lightweight formula, as it can detangle the toughest of knots whilst boosting shine and softness.

de Mamiel Winter Facial Oil Dh345 Winter-like weather means super-strength skincare, and this fabulous face oil ticks all the beauty boxes. Using the principle of Chinese medicine to nourish skin and support your emotions, its uplifting blend protects against the elements, minimises redness, enhances circulation, reduces signs of ageing, and soothes skin.
