Finally, it’s time to escape the daily grind and head off on vacation. As excited as we are to recharge and relax, it's important to think about proper skincare before the trip. Whether you’re heading to the beach or a cooler destination, your skin can react to the sudden change in temperature, often showing signs of stress like dryness or breakouts, such as heat rashes. Overreactions can also occur, especially from excessive sweating, UV exposure, and unsuitable sunscreen. Here are our top tips for keeping your skin in great shape while on vacation and the must-have products to pack in your suitcase.
Achieving a healthy tan on vacation
Spending hours in the sun is never good for your skin—not only does it increase the risk of sunburn, but UV radiation is also responsible for 80% of skin ageing and heightens the risk of skin cancer. Still, we understand the desire for a nice tan while on vacation. That’s why we recommend prepping your skin beforehand. Our tanning oil SPF 6 promotes a healthy tan without UV exposure. It includes Astaxanthin, a natural antioxidant from microalgae, which protects the skin and gives it a unique summer glow with its golden-red hue.
Proper sun protection is crucial on vacation. To avoid breakouts and protect your skin from premature ageing, choose a sunscreen rich in antioxidants. Opt for a product with at least SPF 30, which shields against both UVA and UVB rays, and remember to reapply regularly!

Your must-haves for a naturally beautiful vacation look
Heavy makeup can clog pores in the heat, leading to breakouts. Instead, go for lightweight textures that allow your skin to breathe. Serums, concentrates, and essences are not only potent skincare solutions but also ideal for vacation due to their light consistency. For a natural, no-makeup look, we recommend our VINOBLE COSMETICS Essences. Depending on your skin type and needs, they provide the perfect base for our tinted day cream while delivering essential nutrients deeply into the skin:
- hydrating essence: moisturizes and refines the texture of dry skin
- firming essence: tightens and regenerates mature skin
- purifying essence: mattifies, calms, and balances oily and combination skin
With the tinted day cream SPF 30, you can even out your skin tone, hydrate it, and provide ample protection without the heaviness of makeup.
For an extra boost, treat your skin to a face mask. The active ingredients help soothe, hydrate, and refresh your skin after a day in the sun. The pro youth lifting mask is perfect for carry-on luggage. This convenient sheet mask, infused with a blend of hyaluronic acid, plant stem cells, vitamin E, and oat kernel extract, delivers radiant results in minutes, smoothing and revitalizing tired skin - ideal for summer nights at your dream destination.
The basics of skincare – gentle cleansing for morning and night
Proper cleansing is essential, especially when your skin is constantly exposed to sunscreen and sweat. Use a body wash that thoroughly cleanses without drying out your skin. For your face, choose a cleanser suited to your skin type. A toner can additonally help remove any leftover residue, hydrate the skin, and prepare it to better absorb the following skincare products.
Moisture, moisture, moisture
Your skincare routine on vacation should focus on keeping your skin well-hydrated. This is key to protecting it from dryness and damage caused by the sun, saltwater, and changing climates. The VINOBLE COSMETICS body lotion & after sun with cold-pressed grapeseed oil, valuable antioxidants, and panthenol is perfect for soothing and nourishing sun-stressed skin.
An exfoliant is another must-have for your vacation skincare routine. It not only preps the skin for better moisture absorption but also helps prevent rough patches and effectively removes dead skin cells. Exfoliants are great for both the face and body, leaving the skin soft and smooth, and prolonging that sun-kissed glow.
The perfect combo of exfoliation and hydration is provided by our hydrating face set – the vegan face scrub with papaya enzymes removes excess oil, while day and night creams deeply hydrate and rejuvenate the skin.
Skincare for cooler destinations
If you're heading to a cooler destination, keep these additional tips in mind:
- Avoid hot showers: Hot water can dry out your skin. Use lukewarm water and products that replenish moisture.
- Sun and cold protection in any weather: Even in cooler climates or cloudy weather, your skin needs protection with a high SPF—don't forget your lips! Our recommendation: the VINOBLE COSMETICS protecting day cream SPF 30.
- Regenerating hand care: Regularly moisturize your hands with a rich hand cream to protect them from the cold.
