MAKEUP
I aim to put together a makeup basket for my trips with products that either don't take up much space or are multi-purpose. I have the hardest time limiting the lippies I take; here you can see various lippies I enjoy during my travels, but I tend to...
These mini ND palettes are small and compact, and contain 5 high-quality eyeshadows. I have the My Mini Dream palette and as a nude-look-lover girlie, I find it perfect for my travels. You can achieve the most simple look (such as adding only some sh...
NATASHA DENONA My Mini Dream Eyeshadow Palette
I like to pack multipurpose products while traveling, and this one is indeed the multitasker! It's a primer that provides a good base for your makeup, it evens out your face beautifully, gives you glow as well as some light coverage - working fine as...
RIMMEL Better Than Filters Multitasker
I always travel with my yellow colour corrector, cause now matter where or how I end up, I gotta cover up those dark undereye circles in the morning... It comes in a bunch of shades, so it’s super easy to find the right one for whatever you’re dealin...
SHEGLAM Liquid Colour Corrector
This has been my go-to concealer since my teens - and I still swear by it. It does exactly what a good concealer should: covers well (I'd say medium coverage), blends easily, and actually lasts all day. A reliable, budget-friendly option that won't d...
CATRICE Liquid Camouflage Concealer
It locks everything in place without taking away that dewy finish. It’s also great if you prefer a more matte look, since it takes down shine without making your skin look cakey or dry. A thin layer is all you need.
ESSENCE Mattifying Compact Powder
A very practical duo for your travels, you get to take your blush and highlighter in one small, compact case. The blush is optimally pigmented and very easy to blend. It's buildable, it's up to you whether you want a natural finish or a blush-blind l...
SHEGLAM Blush & Highlighter Duo
This is my go-to travel highlighter and contour. It's practical as it takes up very little space. I'm verry happy with how it performs, too, both the contour and the highlighter is easy to blend and last well.
NYX Wonder Stick Contour & Highlighter Duo
I love using it for everyday looks, it has everything I need when it comes to a mascara: it has an intense black colour (I have it in 'Cosmic Black'), it separates my lashes beautifully, it adds extra length and volume and it lasts well throughout th...
MAYBELLINE Sky High Mascara
The quickest way to do my brows, just a few swipes and voila! Combed, shaped and tinted. Zero fuss, and the amount of space it takes up in your travel makeup bag is insignificant.
ESSENCE Thick & Wow Brow Mascara
My favourite lipliners since I discovered them! They glide on so easily, yet they don't smudge. And they actually make my lips look fuller and have a plumping effect.
My tip: after you've applied the lipliner, wait a few minutes, let it dry and sett...
RIMMEL Oh My Plump! Lip Liner
Beautiful, glossy/glazy finish paired with fuss-free application. It's perfect if you are on the go, it's super easy to apply, can be done even without a mirror. I'm in love with how it looks on the lips, especially when I use it with the Rimmel Oh M...
RIMMEL Oh My Gloss! Lipgloss
It's very comfortable and feels moisturising on the lips. It's not sticky at all. There is a wide range of shades, some even contain shimmers, and they are all super pretty and pigmented. As any other lipgloss, it wears off with time, but it fades aw...
MAYBELLINE Lifter Gloss
I always like to have a sparkly lipgloss with me, and many of these Kiko glosses contain sparkles that will give you a subtle, elegant finish. This formula is super comfortable - it's not sticky at all and feels light on the lips.
KIKO 3D Hydra Lipgloss
Such a good choice, especially if you are on the go. It looks subtle but pretty on the lips, it moisturises and you can reapply it anytime without a fuss - even without a mirror.
MAYBELLINE Lifter Glaze Lip Balm
Moisturising, glossy and affordable - what more could I ask for? It looks beautiful on the lips, it has a glossy/milky finish and considering it's a lipgloss, it lasts fairly long. It's easy to apply and can be a good choice when you are on the go or...
ESSENCE The Super Peptide Glossy Treatment
SKINCARE
I'm not the type of girlie who packs her whole skincare routine for a trip, I try to be more minimalistic during these days and bring only what I find essential, which for me is SPF and moisturising products for my skin and my lips.
Moisturise well, especially if you take a flight or travel pretty much anywhere - hot or cold, you need to take care of your skin. This cream has quickly become my travel bestie (as well as casual everyday bestie), it moisturises deeply, makes my ski...
L'ORÉAL Revitalift Glass Skin Liquid Cream
SPF is essential, especially if you spend a lot of time outside, so don't forget about it during your trip. This SPF has a lightweight formula, my skin is loving it, especially paired with the L'Oréal Revitalift Glass Skin Liquid Cream.
L'ORÉAL Revitalift Filler Aqua-Fluid SPF30
This is an essential, especially if I take a flight. Before getting on the plane, I like to make sure my skin and my lips are well-moisturised, and this is what's been working the best on my lips. It also has a pretty dewy finish, looks like a lipglo...
LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask
USEFUL ACCESSORIES
Just a couple of items I can not travel without.
I have a set of brushes by Yves Rocher specifically for traveling, in a small case. They perform great and I'm happy to be not worried about having to pick and prep my brushes for travel, I just throw this set in my toiletery bag with all the other s...
YVES ROCHER Makeup Brush Set
This set is my best friend on my travels, it contains different bottles and jars, coming in a thick plastic bag. I've brought them with me on flights several times and I can confirm they are perfectly leak-proof. Excellent quality for the price, and ...
