If a beauty product makes it into my vacation makeup bag, it’s the best of the best. Here are all the makeup items I brought to Maui.


For a bronzey glow under my makeup, I always pack the Kosas DreamBeam SPF 40 in Sunlit.
My base makeup is the most important part of my routine, so I don’t worry about packing light when it comes to skin tints and foundation. For sheer coverage, I brought the Chanel Les Beiges Water-Fresh Tint, for light-to-medium coverage, I brought the Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Foundation, and for medium-to-full coverage, I brought the Dior Forever Skin Foundation Stick. All of them pair beautifully with the Kosas Revealer Concealer and the Elf Halo Glow Setting Powder.
The Makeup By Mario SoftSculpt Transforming Skin Enhancer is a vacation essential. It’s a sheer, glowy bronzer that adds an effortless wash of warmth. I add depth and definition with the Rare Beauty Warm Wishes Bronzer Stick. For a warm, sunkissed flush, I add the Nudestix Nudies Cream Bronzer Stick in Sunkissed and the Patrick Ta Major Headlines Crème and Powder Blush Duo in She’s Seductive.
I brush up my brows with the Rare Beauty Brow Harmony Eyebrow Gel. The Natasha Denona My Mini Dream Eyeshadow Palette has all the essentials for both a matte or shimmery eye look plus an eyeliner shade. For mascara, I love the L’Oréal Lash Paradise Mascara in Latte Brown.
I can never pick just one lip liner. I opted for the Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Lip Liner in Love Trap, the Makeup By Mario Ultra Suede Sculpting Lip Liner in Almond, and the Anastasia Beverly Hills Velvety-Matte Lip Liner in Deep Taupe, depending on how tan I get. To add shine, I packed the Hourglass Phantom Volumizing Glossy Lip Balm in Rise and the Ole Henriksen Pout Preserve Lip Balm in Crème Brûlée.
I lock everything in place with the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray.
