HOW ARE YOU RETREATING AT HOME?
I HAVE A BIG POOL IN MY BACKYARD, SO MY FAMILY AND I SPEND A LOT OF TIME OUTDOORS. WE ALSO HAVE A LOT OF GREEN SPACES AND TERRACES, I LOVE PAINTING FLOWERS ALL OVER THE HOUSE. GARDENING HAS BEEN MY FORM OF RETREAT LATELY.
WHAT’S YOUR AT HOME BEAUTY ROUTINE?
LIGHT CARDIO WORKOUTS, NIGHT FACIALS, AND LOTS OF MOISTURIZING!
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE SPLURGE ON A VACATION?
THE FOOD! WHEN I’M ON VACATION, ALL I WANT TO DO IS EAT AT MY FAVORITE RESTAURANTS.
YOUR VACATION STYLE?
TRIPS TO ISLANDS, BEACHFRONT, WARM WEATHER!
HOW DO YOU GET READY FOR A BEACH HOLIDAY?
I TRY TO WORK OUT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE A MONTH OR TWO BEFORE MY TRIPS, TO MAKE SURE I LOOK MY BEST IN MY SWIMSUITS. I PLAN MY OUTFITS FOR EVERY OCCASION A FEW DAYS BEFORE, AND LOVE MATCHING OUTFITS WITH MY 2-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER, ESPECIALLY MY BATHING SUITS!
HOW DO YOU STAY IN SHAPE ON A HOLIDAY?
I’M STRICT WITH MY DIET, I HAVE REALLY HEALTHY EATING HABITS. I ALSO WORKOUT 2-3 TIMES A WEEK DURING MOST OF THE YEAR. THIS IS WHY I LIKE TO SPOIL MYSELF WHEN I’M ON VACATION, I LET MY GUARD DOWN AND SIMPLY EAT WHATEVER I WANT, THEN AS SOON AS VACATION IS OVER, I’M BACK TO MY REGULAR ROUTINE!
WHAT DO YOU PACK TO EXERCISE ON A VACATION?
I PACK MY FAVORITE HUMBLE HUSTLER ACTIVEWEAR AND RUNNING SHOES.
PACKING ESSENTIALS?
SUNSCREEN, TANNING OIL, AND MY PAOLA ESTEFANIA BIKINIS.
YOUR PACKING ADVICE?
I ALWAYS TRY TO LOOK MY BEST WHEN I’M ON VACATION. I LOVE PICKING OUT OUTFITS FOR EVERY OCCASION IN OUR ITINERARY. IT’S IMPORTANT TO PACK THE ESSENTIALS, BUT IF YOU’RE GOING ON A LONG TRIP, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SOME ROOM FOR SHOPPING!
SKINCARE TIPS WHEN TRAVELING?
IF YOUR GOING TO SPEND A LOT OF TIME IN THE SUN, PACK A SUNSCREEN WITH HIGH SPF THAT’S WATERPROOF. MAKE SURE YOU COVER YOUR FACE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE TO PREVENT WRINKLES AND SUNSPOTS.
WHAT IS YOUR AIRPORT STYLE?
I PREFER TO TRAVEL IN FIRST CLASS TO AVOID LONG LINES, AND HAVE PRIORITY BOARDING. I ALSO HAVE ALL OF THE AIRPORT MOBILE APPS TO CHECK-IN, AND SAVE TIME DURING CUSTOMS PASSPORT CHECKS.
DO YOU HAVE ANY BEAUTY TIPS FOR FLYING?
DEPENDING ON WHERE I’M FLYING TO, I LIKE TO SLEEP ON MY FLIGHT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. THIS WAY YOU’RE WELL RESTED BEFORE YOUR TRIP.
WHAT SWIMWEAR TREND IS A MUST THIS SEASON?
BRIGHT, BOLD COLORS, ANYTHING THAT HAS A LOT OF SPARKLE. MY SWIMWEAR LINE IS PERFECT FOR THIS SEASON. I CREATED A SWIMWEAR COLLECTION THAT IS FUN, GLAMOROUS, AND SEXY.
WHAT ACTIVEWEAR TREND IS A MUST TO PACK?
IT’S ALWAYS IMPORTANT TO HAVE COMFORTABLE PIECES THAT ARE TRENDY AT THE SAME TIME. I LOVE BEING ABLE TO USE MY ACTIVEWEAR DURING MY TRIPS TO THE AIRPORT, NOT JUST WHEN I’M WORKING OUT. PACK ACTIVEWEAR THAT IS CHIC AND THAT YOU CAN LAYER WITH OTHER READY-TO-WEAR PIECES.
ON YOUR TRAVEL BUCKET LIST?
FIJI, AND THE FRENCH POLYNESIA
