As you guys may have already seen from my Insta, I was in The Hamptons recently for a trip with Armani Beauty. It was one of the most beautiful experiences I’ve had in my career so far, and I learnt so much about makeup techniques in a short time. I couldn’t wait to put this Armani Beauty trip recap together so that I can share some of the new tricks I learned and so you can get the details on every look I wore. Without further ado, let’s get right into it.

Day 1
My trip to The Hamptons with Armani began in NYC where I stayed at Public Hotel for one night. I won’t go into too much detail here, but make sure you check out the Armani Highlight on my Instagram so you can see how amazing the view looked like from my cozy bed. I had so much fun playing with the blinds and curtains too!
The next morning was time for the real trip. Armani was so kind to have given my photographer and me a helicopter ride to Montauk. This was a major pinch me moment because I have never been on a helicopter ride before. The experience was so surreal! I loved getting the city view from high above in great weather.
Arriving to Gurney’s Montauk, where I was staying, felt like a perfect vacation. The private cabanas on the beach front were so cute and cozy that I did not want to leave. But there was no time to be wasted! After I got settled in, I was spoiled with a Montauk Stone Massage. There is no better way to unwind and relax after a cross-country flight. Once the day turned to evening, it was time to get ready for a special dinner at the Armani House! I was lucky enough to have my makeup done by pro artist, Britt Sullivan. She worked her magic on me and gave me feel a jolt of confidence! (You can get a quick tutorial on my look below on my Insta.)
Arriving to The Armani Hampton House was another world class experience. From the pool to the view and rooftop, I was mind blown – in complete awe! I just felt so humble being able to stand in a place like this with a pool of smart and talented influencers. As for my outfit, the dress code was “Hampton’s Chic” so I went with a power suit. This Balmain blazer was perfect because it encompassed satin details and gold buttons – my definition of pure chic. And Britt complemented the outfit with soft smokey eyes!

Day 2
Day 2 kicked off with a private workout session, which I can always appreciate. It’s so hard to squeeze in any fitness activities when I’m traveling, so this was a nice change. After breakfast, it was class time where I got to learn all about makeup and application techniques with Linda Cantello, renowned international makeup artist.
My favorite lesson from this day was mixing two shades of the Luminous Silk Foundation for the most perfect match and then applying it with your fingers for the most natural effect.
Then it was time to get ready for dinner all over again. The theme for Day 2’s evening session was surrounding passion. I don’t think any color better represents that than red. For this event, I ended up going with a red jumpsuit and super bold makeup. Think shimmering eyes and bright bold lips, and thanks to Britt, I felt like a beautiful vixen!

Day 3
This was my last full day with the Armani team, and it started with another workout session then brunch. I made sure to spend a lot of time with Melissa Alatorre (@alatorreee) because she’s so funny! Gotta love my Latina girls because of the crazy dancing culture and familiar sense of sarcasm. Watch her teach me how to floss on my highlight, haha!

Once that was over, I headed back for the Armani House to attend another masterclass with Linda. This one was all about achieving that Armani glow and a lesson in the Neo Nudes Collection. The highlight of this collection is that the products are so versatile and can be used for multiple things. I witnessed the powder being used as a lipstick. As strange as that may sound, it turned out so natural and pretty.

The day ended with a movie viewing outdoors and I decided to go with this jumpsuit for an elegant beachy look. My favorite part of it is the evening glamour feel but relaxed silhouette.

The following day, I spent my time wisely on the beach before I headed back to the airport and to LA. Overall, the trip was so much fun. I hope you guys enjoyed my outfits and let me know if you have any questions about the makeup I wore or Armani products I used! Until next time guys – and many thanks to Armani for such a memorable experience!
