Maybe some fake tan before you go so you don't need foundation and then whatever cream you use as protection on your face will do the job of a moisturiser.

I, like you, never go anywhere without my make up but I only wear eye makeup and not foundation. I never bother with moisturiser if I'm going to be wearing sun screen. In fact sometimes I wear sunscreen instead of moisturiser...it does the same job in my opinion. :wink: :D

Rose,

How cold is it going to be in Lapland?

My husband is a low intermediate and was not attempting any kind of spin whatsoever. His 720 was more of a crash bang wallop than an attempt at a new trick :lol: He is all healed up now and very much looking forward to our New Year trip. He has even bought his own ski's and boots...he has, like the rest of us (despite injury) caught the bug. I don't think he'll be attempting any tricks for a few years though...but you never know! :wink:

Errrr........ try and do a 360 spin, fail, then lean forward when you land! )

Hahahahaha... :lol:

Sounds a bit like my husbands 720, only he forgot what way to lean when he landed and broke he's collar bone!

:roll: :wink: :lol:

Have a Ball in Soldeu at New Year - I cant make it out until February :cry:

No doubt we'll bump into them all and fall out, or do I mean crawl out? :shock: :lol:

I had a fab time in St Anton a couple of years ago. Chose not to go this year because 1. My OH needs to make a bit more progress first 2. Financial reasons 3. Friends really fancied Soldeu.

Have you been there before? I hope that isn't a silly question!

Enjoy and I promise you will have a fab time.

I was in Whistler last Christmas and to be honest I'd rather be going back there any time. Unfortunately I can't afford to do that very often and in order to get my two trips in this year, I've got to settle for cheaper options. Still as long as there is snow, good company and alchohol I'll be happy! :lol:

Might see you both there then, keep us posted :D
