Kate Bosworth may be on vacation, but her effortless glow takes no days off. She does, however, adopt a minimal routine when she’s on holiday, because she can’t be bothered with a million steps. Who can blame her?

While on a delayed honeymoon in St. Lucia with her husband, Bosworth hopped on Instagram to share the list of fuss-free products that make it into her travel bag and onto her skin before she hits the beach.

First up, she cleanses her skin.

Even when she’s not on vacation, Bosworth swears by Epicuren’s Herbal Cleanser, which gently washes away impurities without stripping the skin of its natural moisture. “I really love it, and I’ve used it a long time,” she says in her Instagram video.

Then, it’s time to soothe and moisturize.

After being in the sun (wearing SPF, of course), Bosworth likes to apply Epicuren’s Aloe Vera Calming Gel. It has clean ingredients, and she says it feels great “if your skin gets irritated” or a little too sun-kissed. When that dries completely and her skin is no longer sticky, she follows up with Augustinus Bader’s The Cream to moisturize. She says she uses the brand’s Rich Cream back home, but the regular version is “a little bit lighter and perfect for humidity.”

Lastly, she tones her skin and protects it with SPF.

Once her cream sets in, Bosworth spritzes her face with Bronty’s Refresh Hydrating Active Botanical Tonic with coconut, kakadu plum, mountain pepper leaf, and aloe vera. “It smells amazing,” she says. Then, it’s time for the most important step. She shares three sunscreens that serve different functions in her routine.

She wears Coola’s Organic Daily Face Sunscreen under daily makeup because it never feels too greasy. Under a more formal, heavier beauty look, she likes Inno-Derma’s SPF 50 because it’s mattifying and it doesn’t break her out. And on vacation, she wears the French brand Sun’Si Belle’s SPF 30 tinted sunscreen. “It has a really nice tint,” she says. “Not so much coverage that you feel like you’re wearing a full face of makeup on the beach.”

She seals the deal with lip balm and a hair perfume, and without a makeup product in sight, she’s ready for a relaxing day on the island.
