The Vacation Essentials You Need To Pack Right Now

Career girl fashion crush! #ootd

 

This month CGD has done a lot of traveling, Lois and Celina have just arrived from their trip to Barcelona, I’ve been to Portugal and back and now we’re all thinking about the other trips we’d like to go on. I want to go somewhere that’s at least a 12-hour flight away next time!

Chances are you’re planning a vacay too, so don’t get caught without these essentials.

HYDRATING SUNSCREEN
This product has me all kinds of excited. BIODERMA Hydrabio Eau de Soin SPF30 is a hydrating water spray that is great for sensitive, dry skin as it hydrates, cools and gives you SPF30 protection against UV rays. Seriously, ditch your old drugstore sunscreens – this is revolutionary.

SILKY SOFT HANDS
There’s nothing worse than dry hands on a flight, the air on planes can quickly dry out your skin which is why it’s a good idea to pack some moisturizers in your hand luggage. Try Korean cult product Tony Moly Panda’s Dream White Hand Cream, which comes in a cute travel-friendly panda container for light moisturization free from parabens that smells gorgeous.

A TOUCH UP HERO
For those quick touch-ups, Bobbi Brown Weekend Eye & Cheek Palette is your new best friend, it has three shades of eyeshadow perfect for a smokey eye-look, a blusher, mirror and a mini mascara saving precious room in your makeup bag!

A GOOD TRIP KIT
The coolest new makeup brand Milk Makeup have released a kit containing all your vacation essentials for a really good price point. Packed in a super cool holographic bag, all our favorite portable travel companions are ready to go. The kit includes dry shampoo, oil lip stain, nourishing mascara, makeup remover wipes and a matte bronzer stick. What more do you need?

YOUR PERFECT SKIN PAL
My absolute favorite travel companion for perfect skin is the Foreo Luna Play. It’s so itsy, it’s almost adorable – but it still packs a massive punch when it comes to cleansing, polishing and revealing your skin’s natural glow. In harsher climates than I’m used to, I like to give myself a facial massage with oil and use my Foreo to exfoliate any dryness away gently.

THIRSTY SKIN SAVIOR
Traveling really takes it out of you. The other day it took us 12 hours to get to Portugal, and on the way back from the airport we got a flat tire! Luckily, even though I was exhausted, my skin wasn’t. Because I didn’t forget to pack my handy moisturizer. To avoid dry, dehydrated and tired skin on vacation try Origins VitaZing SPF15 Energy-Boosting Moisturizer With Mangosteen.

THE HAND LUGGAGE BAG FROM HEAVEN
Finally, where would we be without our trusty hand luggage bag? Slipping neatly into the seat in front of us, it often carries our bags of Maltesers and our hand creams with all our electronic devices, so it needs to be as sturdy as it is chic. At the moment, we’re in love with Lo & Sons The O.G Overnight Bag. It’s been to Barcelona with Celina and Lois and generated a buzz in the office for being beautiful and brilliant!
