KIM KARDASHIAN

Who: Reality TV personality, part owner of Dash boutique and creator of Glam fragrance.

Where she's going: Vail, Colo.

What she's packing: "A Bogner sweater to wear under a North Face black bomber jacket -- it's such a stylish look. North Face tight ski pants are great on and off the slopes, and Hot Chillys long underwear is a mountain must. I pack Moncler fur mittens, because I love mittens but especially the ones that have gloves inside with all the fingers; Grabber hand and feet warmers, which are genius; a Turtle Fur infinity scarf, because you can't forget your neck; and Cosabella pajamas because there's nothing better than cozy pajamas after a long day on the slopes."

Her tip: "Ziploc bags. I always put my cellphone in a Ziploc bag so that when I fall, my phone doesn't get snow or water in it."

JEANINE LOBELL

Who: Celebrity makeup artist and mother of four.

Where she's going: Jackson Hole, Wyo.

What's she's packing: "For the kids, I pack two of everything in dark colors so they can get more wear out of them. Spyder ski wear works for the whole family, and Polarn O. Pyret makes great outerwear for kids. For myself, I pack loose T-shirts to wear over Uniqlo long-sleeved silks, J. Crew cashmere beanies, my tortoise Skullcandy Roc Nation headphones so I can zone out, and Clark's Botanicals untinted lip balm."

Her tip: "By the time I've packed everyone else in the family, my head is spinning and I end up overpacking. Plus, I have a teenager who loves to borrow my clothes, so I have to calculate her into my stuff. A stylist friend showed me that if you lay everything in your suitcase completely flat and unfolded, you can fit much more in -- it's amazing."

DAVID COLBERT

Who: New York dermatologist.

Where he's going: Madonna di Campiglio in Italy and Mont St.-Sauveur in Quebec.

What he's packing: "A gray North Face full-zip top and black Patagonia Snowshot shell pants; Berne gloves because they provide full, easy hand movement; Air & Speed T-shirts I buy in Montauk because they're soft and wick away sweat; Paul Smith cashmere caps because bright colors keep you visible on the slopes; a few tins of DavidsTea Apres-Ski blends to warm me up; and a vintage Armand Diradourian cashmere sweater with a peace sign that I bought when George W. Bush invaded Iraq."

His tip: "I learned in Canada that adding oil to your sunscreen keeps it from freezing on your face, so I mix a few drops of my own Illumino face oil with lots of SkinCeuticals SPF 30 sunscreen. As a dermatologist, I have to walk the talk."
