In My Travel Bag

Airplane emoji 17 items
I travel fairly often and if I'm able to carry-on, I will be doing so! I often use traveling as an excuse to try a new product, but not commit to the full-size. Here are my go-to travel minis that I always have on me when I travel.

Haircare

I can't stand hotel shampoo and conditioner! These products help me get by when I'm away from home.

I love Olaplex but the shampoo/conditioner combo is too heavy for my hair for every day use. I love it for traveling because it refreshes my hair and is TSA-friendly!

Fragrance

I love fragrance and hate note being able to take my full-sized products with me when I'm traveling. Sample sets are my go-to solution!
