If each city took the form of beauty products, what would be the right choices? We've packed our bags and filled the nécessaire with candidates for the most cosmopolitan cosmetics. We just don't promise they'll meet airport criteria, so for the sake of beauty, don’t stick to a carry-on.

If each city took the form of beauty products, what would be the right choices? We've packed our bags and filled the nécessaire with candidates for the most cosmopolitan cosmetics. We just don't promise they'll meet airport criteria, so for the sake of beauty, don’t stick to a carry-on.

Cape Town

To visit Cape Town, it is advised to travel with cosmetics designed for a hot climate and suitable for high sun exposure. Whether it's formulas that enhance your tan or preserve your light skin, the trick is to combine them with a strong SPF.

Las Vegas

What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas - and the same can be said for beauty. This is the ideal destination to experiment with new make-up techniques and color combinations that the monotony of everyday life tends to keep away.

Lisbon

A city full of natural cosmetics and more sustainable options. There is no shortage of beauty products made in Portugal - on the contrary, there is plenty of high-quality choices. It is worth getting to know some of the brands that make up the Portuguese beauty scene.

Paris

An elegant red lipstick, a dramatic mascara, a luminous and uniform complexion. This is how you create an example of Parisian beauty that is as timeless as the products that make it up. Add delicate perfume notes and, voilà, you have the epitome of la vie en rose.

Seoul

The Korean obsession with skin care has not gone unnoticed in the West. Many of the K-Beauty principles conveyed on social media have been adopted by brands seeking to provide simpler, but equally effective, solutions to their consumers. Even in the packaging you can feel the minimalism.
