What To Pack: Weekend Essentials
Whether you’re headed to the great outdoors, to a weekend jaunt in the city, or away for a special occasion, there are a few absolute must-haves you should pack in your carry-on no matter where you’re going this summer.
Here are a few of our favorite travel essentials:
Take care of your complexion with H2O Plus Oasis Starter System ($19.50 US). It has all the basics you could ask for to hydrate your skin: Face Oasis Cleansing Water, Marine Toner, Face Oasis Replenishing Treatment (moisturizer), and Eye Oasis Moisture Replenishing Treatment.
I love Federic Fekkai Glossing products and was stoked the first time I purchased the Travel Faves Kit ($40 US) for a trip to Chicago last year. It comes with everything I need to keep my locks looking great – Glossing Shampoo, Glossing Conditioner, Glossing Cream, a mini Sheer Hold Hair Spray, and a mini comb.
Save room for souvenirs when you pack only your favorite shades in a nice compact. With Bobbi Brown Custom Palettes, choose colors that suit you instead of lugging around a makeup bag full of shadows and glosses you have to mix and match.
For the basics, pick up a 4-pan palette and choose two shadows, one blush and one lip color. If you want more choices, opt for the 6-pan palette.
Don’t give others a reason to do a double take when you walk by. Protect yourself from odor and wetness this summer with Secret Flawless antiperspirant ($2.99 US) with patented odor-fighting and fragrance renewal technologies in a convenient travel size.
