What to Pack for the Rio Olympics: The Complete Beauty Checklist

olympics

The Summer Olympics are just weeks away and soon, all eyes will be on Rio as athletes compete to take home the gold. And if you’re amongst the spectators who plan on heading to Brazil to watch the Games—while taking up local off-duty sports like surfing, swimming, and sipping caipirinhas—you may face another unique challenge: What to pack for the trip.

To streamline the process, we’ve put together the ultimate beauty checklist, starting with the flight: No overnight journey is complete without a TSA-friendly cleanser, like Givenchy’s powder-to-cream formula, which emulsifies with a splash of water in your hands, or a hydrating face mist to refresh skin upon landing. On arrival, embrace the August humidity with Ouai’s hair texturizing spray for waves that recall the country’s ultimate beach goddess—by that we mean Gisele Bündchen—and don’t forget to throw in a bottle of powerful insect repellant, like Off! Deep Woods.

Kick off each morning with a quick run down the famously body-con shores of Ipanema, monitoring your progress with Fitbit’s Alta fitness tracking device in neoprene blue that’s color-coordinated with the surf. Later in the day, cool off between qualifying rounds with H&M’s coconut-water face mask and a spritz of Coola’s sunscreen formula with organic ingredients. As for makeup? Anything goes in the hedonistic city, but a tube of Topshop’s cheeky red lipstick in Rio Rio promises to simmer by day or by night.

Above, a roundup of essential items you’ll want in your travel bag.
