It’s really, really easy to overpack – especially if you’re in a hurry. Being confronted with an empty suitcase and the prospect of being away from home brings out an urge to try and cram in the kitchen sink, plus the bathroom one. So, to help save you space in your case, and minimise excess baggage fees, here is your guide to the makeup you actually need to pack…
How do you build a minimalist travel makeup kit?
First things first, tip your makeup bag out and start from scratch. This will give you the chance to take out anything you definitely don’t need, and the chance to find that elusive lip colour you thought you’d lost weeks ago. From there, rebuild the fundamentals: base, eyes, brows, cheeks and lips. Keep everything as streamlined as possible, focusing on multitasking products and coordinating colours that will work seamlessly together.
What makeup should I pack for a beach holiday?
Less is more when it comes to beach holiday makeup – keep it minimal to make the most of your well-rested, sun-kissed complexion. Stick to SPF only for long days spent on the sun lounger, and pack cream-based makeup you can swipe on without a mirror to go from sand to sundowners. If you do want a base for the beach, try BFF SPF 30 Cream. It’s part sunscreen, part glowing base for radiant skin with an extra layer of protection.
What makeup should I pack for a long weekend away?
Space is really at a premium when you’re only away for a weekend. The Stack was made for moments like this. It will condense your entire makeup bag into one perfectly portable tower of time-saving, cream-based formulas that can easily be applied without brushes. Curate yours with personalised shades and you’ll never have to struggle with the zip on your case ever again.
What makeup should I pack for a trip to the countryside?
The best thing about a trip to the countryside is the lack of signal, keeping you purposely disconnected from the outside world. It’s also a good time to disconnect from your usual makeup routine, swapping out complicated steps and intricate eye makeup for fuss-free favourites. Lip2Cheek is an easy way to bring your entire complexion to life with very little effort, putting a flush in your cheeks before the fresh air has had a chance to. Team with a few sweeps of Lash2Brow, our dual-ended mascara and tinted brow gel for a perfectly put-together look that doesn’t look too ‘done’.
How can you transition your travel makeup from day to night?
Evening makeup is slightly more elevated than daytime makeup, letting you play around with darker or bolder shades. Trinity, our ultimate multitasker for lips, cheeks and eyes, is buildable, so you can dial up a more intense finish when the sun goes down. Add a little shimmer with a metallic shade of Eye2Eye, or sheen with Sheer Shimmer, our lip and cheek glow-getter.
