Tips on preparing for a holiday in the sun

Please can you share your tips on getting ready for a sunny holiday abroad? I love the preparation almost as much as the holiday itself and have about two months to plan. So far, I'm considering an LVL lash lift, wax and mani/pedicure.

It's not a beach holiday, but there's a swimming pool where we're staying. So I'm also looking at swimming costumes (one piece, not bikini, I think).

I shave my legs 🤣

Shave my legs and get a pedicure but that’s about it!
im very low maintenance on holiday though; don’t bother taking anything to sort my hair out and am makeup free for the duration (although I’m makeup free most of the time at home anyway!).
I hate holiday prep and pack very last minute 😂 I’m not the target audience for this thread it seems!!

You n me both @TheChosenTwo going to google what an LVL lash lift is

Ok, fair enough Smile! I haven't been on a sunny holiday abroad for years, so it's a big deal for me and maybe I've got a bit carried away!

I’d have a spray tan and a pedicure and that would be it (I’ve had laser hair removal so no need to wax). I don’t lie in the sun so come back paler than I go!
