No matter how you're spending the long Easter weekend - beachside, deep in DIY mode or sipping matcha after a gallery stroll - having the right essentials makes all the difference. Whether you're channelling peak Martha Stewart with a home or garden project or simply indulging in some much-needed four days of self-care, we've curated an edit to match your plans (or lack thereof).
Autumn at the beach
Easter at the bach means crisp morning walks, salty hair and beach days – whether it’s sun-soaked or stormy. MotherSPF SPF 30 Face and Body keeps your skin protected on bright autumn days, while Kevin Murphy’s Hair Resort Spray enhances beachy texture (or just clip back wind-tousled strands with the two-toned Chunks Checker Claw). Add a touch of indulgence to the bach with the 1.5L Leif Boronia Hand Wash; it’ll last for ages.
Home stay
Big plans to not leave the house? Whether you're tackling a DIY project, clearing out your wardrobe or doing literally nothing, make it a cozy, feel-good reset.
Sweep back your hair with the Noto Headband, refresh tired eyes with Foile's Angel Eye Jellies and indulge in a self-care hair break with Christophe Robin’s Regenerating Mask (a dream for really dry hair). Finish with Leif's Desert Lime Body Lotion for soft, hydrated skin for a luxe homebody weekend.
Out in the garden
You’ll be found outdoors pottering, with a weekend garden centre visit – whether you're actually planting or just admiring the foliage – and a farmers' market stop after.
Keep the earthy vibes by slicking back your hair with Chunks’ Butterfly Claw, smoothing on Grown Alchemist’s Lip Balm for soft, hydrated lips and reaching for Maryse’s Treatment Balm on hand for any rough spots. A dab of Noto's Rooted Oil seals the grounding, botanical mood.
Church in the morning
Whether it’s a once or twice a year tradition or part of your regular Sunday ritual, it’s a reason to get a little polished. Smooth and style with a Mason Pearson Hair Brush, then add a soft touch of pastel with Chunks’ periwinkle Wavy Headband or lilac Bow Snap Clips. A swipe of Maryse’s Lip Shine in Lychee brings a wholesome pink, dewy finish – because an Easter glow isn’t just for the soul.
Last-minute roadie
No plans, just vibes. You throw essentials into the Kevin Murphy Quilted Travel Pouch, book an Airbnb (or wing it) and hit the road. Christophe Robin’s Hydrating Shampoo Bar keeps things low-maintenance, while Kevin Murphy’s Fresh.Hair revives road-trip hair in seconds. And for SPF on the go? Mother SPF’s Tinted Touch-Up Brush has you covered. Who knows where you’ll end up, but you’ll look hot when you get there.
City explorer
A long lunch, a bookstore browse, maybe a gallery stop or even a local hotel stay – you know that a nearly empty city is best savoured slowly. Keep things fresh as you explore the streets with a mist of Grown Alchemist Hydra-Mist, then add a natural glow with Noto’s Multi-Bene Stain and Maryse’s Mineral Tint in Dune. Sweep your hair back with the Chunks Skinny Wave Barrette. No rush, no agenda; just a chill autumn day in the city.
