Hair
Depending on where you’re traveling to, the weather can really mess with your hair. The following hair care items have helped me keep my locks tame and under control – no matter where I’m traveling!
Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo – If I’m trying to avoid washing my hair every day, this is the best dry shampoo I’ve ever used. It wicks away the oil and leaves my hair feeling refreshed and smelling great!
Living Proof Flex Shaping Hairspray – Whether I’m curling my hair or wearing it straight, this stuff keeps my style all day long.
Living Proof T.B.D. Multi-Tasking Styler Styling Cream – I LOVE this stuff. I will put this in my hair while it’s still damp, right before I blow dry and it helps hold my style and combat frizziness. It’s great for travel anywhere, but it especially shines when traveling to super humid areas. I also use this sometimes after I’ve styled to give my curls a more piece-y look.
Oribe Bright Blonde Shampoo – If you’re a blonde like me then you know a week or so into your travels, your hair begins to look dull and lack luster from all the hotel shampoo. That’s why I bring this brightening shampoo along with me! It keeps my hair looking shiny and bright.
Wet Brush – This brush has been a total game changer for me with brushing my hair. It combats even the toughest knots in your hair and glides through them gently without damage or pulling hair out. It’s amazing! I cannot say enough good things.
Makeup
No matter where I travel to, there are a few makeup staples that always come along. These I’ve found are my tried and true. No matter what the weather, they always stay put and look good.
Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Makeup – You can thank me later, but this is hands down the BEST foundation I have ever used. It covers, it conceals.. it even doubles up as a concealer if you layer it in certain areas. It goes on smoothly, and stays on all day.
Hourglass Veil Translucent Powder – I cannot remember life before this powder. I use it to set my Estee Lauder Foundation and it creates the most beautiful air brushed finish on my skin. Sold.
L’Oréal Paris Makeup Voluminous Lash Boosting Conditioning Primer Mascara – Traveling or not, you need to buy this eye lash primer. It is AMAZING. My eye lashes have never been so long and healthy and when I combine it with the mascara I linked below, my eyelashes look a million miles long!
Covergirl Professional Super Thick Lash – It took me forever to find a mascara that wouldn’t be flaking off onto my cheeks by the end of the day, or be watering down my face from rain or humidity. This was it and combined with the above primer. I’m winning in the eyelash category.
To keep all my favorite hair and makeup products together and organized, I’ve curated my essential travel gear guide. This guide highlights all the gear I never leave the house without when hitting the road.
