What mini beauty products should I take on holiday?
1. Color Wow Travel Dream Coat Supernatural Spray 50ml
If your locks are susceptible to a 'Monica moment' then this humidity-defying spray is perfect for you. Acting as a waterproof cloak on the hair, it keeps locks smooth, soft, and frizz-free, offering protection for up to 72 hours. So you can look sleek all holiday long.
2. MAC Mini Strobe Cream Primer - Pinklite 15ml
Multi-use products are the perfect beauty staples to take with you on holiday and MAC Strobe Cream is one of our favourites. Used alone, blended with your foundation or as a strobing cream on the high points of your face, the shimmering cream adds a beautiful glow to your skin.
Infused with iridescent particles, the lightweight cream brightens and refreshes the skin for a healthy, lit-from-within radiance.
3. Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream 75ml
Super soft, supple skin is what we all long for on holiday so a body moisturiser is an essential to pack when you go away. This award-winning cream is formulated with guaraná extract, and a blend of cupuaçu butter, açaí oil, and coconut oil to provide intense hydration and energise the skin. Wrapped up in a scent of pistachio, salted caramel and vanilla, summer skincare never felt so sweet.
4. Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray Travel Size 30ml
Keep your makeup in place for up to 16 hours with the Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray. Defying humidity and sweat, the oil-free spray ensures your makeup looks just as perfect as when first applied all day and all night long.
Preventing your makeup from smudging, fading or melting, it is a holiday essential.
5. Bumble and bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil Heat/UV Protective Primer 60ml
Protect your hair from heat and UV rays and keep frizz at bay with the best-selling Hairdresser's Invisible Oil Heat/UV Protective Primer from Bumble and bumble. Protecting and nourishing your hair from root to tip, the invisible formula casts a veil of moisture over the hair.
As we often use styling tools on holiday and our hair is exposed to UV rays, a protective primer is the perfect way to prevent damage and breakage.
6. benefit Hoola Matte Bronzing Powder Mini
Add a divine glow to your skin and enhance your tan with this mini bronzer from Benefit. Buildable and blendable, this cool-toned bronzer is ideal for contouring and enhancing your summer glow.
Sweep over the areas the sun would naturally hit for a 'just-back-from-the-tropics' glow.
7. Lumene Nordic C Valo Glow Refresh Hydrating Mist 50ml
Refresh your skin throughout the day and add a glow whenever you need it with the radiance-boosting Lumene Nordic C Valo Glow Refresh Hydrating Mist. Blending Arctic Spring Water with Vitamin C and Nordic Cloudberry Extract, it hydrates the skin and replenishes moisture which your skin loses in the heat.
Spritz on bare skin or over makeup to refresh and revitalise your complexion.
8. Origins Original Skin Matte Moisturizer (50ml)
Hydrate your skin and balance your complexion with the Original Skin Matte Moisturiser from Origins. With a silky formula to refresh the skin and Pink Rock Rose and Willowherb for long-lasting hydration, it is the perfect holiday moisturiser.
As many of us are a little more oily in warmer climates, this moisturiser is perfect as it minimises sebum production and reduces the appearance of pores for a fresh, even skin finish.
As someone with an affinity for all things beauty, discovering fantastic new products is my not-so-secret obsession. Over the years I've tried and tested a mountains worth of creams, serums and cleansers, finding some of my favourite 'holy-grail' products along the way. However, I'm always on the lookout for more ways to nourish my hair, perfect my dewy base, or enhance my skincare routine.
Working as a beauty blogger for over 3 years, I've been lucky enough to collaborate personally with lots of amazing beauty brands including Christian Dior, The Body Shop and Dermalogica. I've used the Dermalogica special cleansing gel religiously since I first got it and their products are some of my ultimate skincare faves. When it comes to cosmetics, NARS Sheer Glow foundation is definitely my go-to - I live for a light, glowy base!
