THE BEAUTY MINIMALIST

Travel photographer, blogger and Instagram phenomenon Lucy Williams is retreating to a restored farmhouse in inland Ibiza with girlfriends this summer.

I’ve had enough practice running for flights to know I must always

wear trainers! Veja are my go-to, as they look good with everything. I can also wear them on long walks once I’m in Ibiza.

I’m a big believer in in-flight beauty. Kiehl’s does an amazing overnight lip balm, which I apply regularly on the aeroplane to combat the dry atmosphere, along with Chanel hand cream. I also apply my Dr. Barbara Sturm Face Cream, £132, before take off for a hit of hydration.

Ibiza brings out my inner hippie child, especially the northern part of the island, which is where we’re heading. It will be the perfect mix of lazy breakfasts in the Santa Gertrudis square and long days at Cala Benirrás beach. The beach has a really hippie vibe and an amazing restaurant for low-key, mellow lunches. Then we’ll go back to our hotel, La Granja, for rosé. You can wear so much colour, crochet and gold jewellery. It’s all very me.

I like to think I’m a light packer, but I’m not. I get over-excited and always take too much. I tend to pack lots of dresses and sandals. There is a great brand I discovered in Ibiza called De La Vali and it has a 1970s feel; very Jerry Hall.

Sunglasses are my thing and I always have about seven pairs in my bag: classic Ray-bans, a pair of red cat’s eye frames from Mulberry, glittery ones from Le Specs, the list goes on!

I love freckles and let mine show, and I’m all about glowing skin. Milk Makeup does a great highlighter stick that you can apply all over. It really catches the light. I’m also into my Nars Tinted Moisturiser, but I love that point in the holiday where you are sun-kissed enough to forego make-up.

I’m careful in the sun and use SPF 50 on my face and SPF 30 on my body. I have to use children’s sunscreen on my nose as it’s quite sun damaged and that stuff just doesn’t come off!

I love bare nails against tanned skin and accessorise my feet with gold anklets instead of polish.

Glossier Boy Brow in Brown, £14, is the only eye make-up I wear on holiday.
