Summer beauty in Ibiza this year is all about dedicating your look to Aphrodite – the famous goddess of love, beauty and sexuality. And who better to embrace the look, than 2010’s very own Aphrodite-in-waiting, Kylie Minogue.
Kylie sparkled with boho-luxe beauty when she visited the fair shores of Ibiza recently for the launch of her new album Aphrodite. It’s a look that returns to the fashion and style forefront on a regular basis (albeit with a seasonal update each time) and for good reason – it’s the perfect easy, breezy summery look without having to go to great lengths to look fabulous, from top to toe!
How to get boho-luxe locks
To create the perfect tousled beachy waves, without having to go for a dip in the sea first, it’s all about choosing the right product. For thick hair, Kerastase Oleo Curl will give you all the texture you need, while fine hair will adapt well to the look with Marlies Moeller Flexible Styling Foam. Simply apply a small dollop to wet hair, then distribute evenly through your mane with a flat paddle brush – we love the new Marlies Moeller Classic Hair and Scalp Brush. Let your hair dry naturally and you’re ready to go!
Try the coolest new nail hues
As seen on super goddess Kylie in her sassy new music video ‘All the lovers’, and at her press conference in Ibiza, this summer’s hottest hues for nails are actually cool tones. File nails into short, rounded tips and smooth two coats of OPI Alpine Snow on for the perfect finish. Here in Ibiza, call on the expert services of manicurist-to-the-stars Pauline Boom, and let her put the finishing touches on your fingers and toes while you relax and enjoy the white isle…
Summer skin SOS
Let your natural glow shine through rather than faking it! At her recent press conference at Amante Beach Club and Restaurant in Ibiza, Kylie – who was sitting pretty by the seaside, protected by the shade in the sweltering summer heat – revealed the secret to her clear complexion. ‘Sunblock, people! It’s the Australian in me.’ Follow Kylie’s lead and slather on Lancaster Sun Beauty Care SPF30 before hitting the beach.
Post-beach, treat dehydrated summer skin to a nourishing facial – try this instant glow-boosting recipe to get dewy, luminous skin like Kylie’s.
