With the amount of beauty products we ladies use in a day, it can be overwhelming trying to figure out how to fit the everyday essentials into a travel bag. Thankfully, there are dozens of mini-sized products out there so you won’t have to pick and choose what get’s left behind. I have scoured my closet of beauty products and picked out 7 essentials that will fit in your travel bag and pass the 3 oz carry on luggage regulation.
The Products
1. The Vintage Cosmetic Cosmetic Clutch Bag ($12.50)
The first thing you’ll want to pack before deciding on what beauty products to bring is a good quality clutch bag to keep everything together. The Vintage Cosmetic Clutch Bag is literally the prettiest thing I’ve ever seen and holds a TON. The brushed gold clasp adds the perfect finishing touch to this 1950’s style bag and keeps all your beauty goodies secure. The size is approximately 165mm X 235mm X 10mm. Buy at THEVINTAGECOSMETIC.
2. Mad Hippie Face Cream (1 oz) ($26)
You never want to travel without a good face cream. Mad Hippie’s 1 oz. Face Cream is a must-have for your travel bag. Formulated with vitamin E, coconut oil, and green tea extract, this cream is working double time to moisturize and reduce the appearance of fine lines. It’s also very gentle on skin so you won’t have to worry about any irritation while you’re basking away on your Summer vacay. Buy at ANTHROPOLOGIE.
3. Hotheads The Mini G Small Paddle Brush ($19.50)
Even when I’m not traveling, I never leave the house without a mini-size brush. The Hotheads Mini G Small Paddle Brush is the perfect sized brush to take with you on a trip. The innovative bristle pattern was designed to penetrate and leave hair shiny and polished. This brush is also one of my favorites because it doesn’t pull out any hair even when it’s super tangled. Buy at HOTHEADSHAIRBRUSH.
4. AllGlamR Tinted Sunscreen (2 oz) ($38.25)
I’m not sure why I never used tinted sunscreen before but it is literally my favorite product for Summer. The AllGlamR Tinted Sunscreen is a travel must and here’s why. They come in 2 oz. bottles so they easily fit into any travel bag and also pass the 3 oz. carry on luggage regulation when flying. The non-irritating and hypoallergenic formula has a powerful SPF 30 protection from UV rays, and the tint evens out your skin for a subtle glow. Available in 2 shades: Light and Medium. Buy at ALLGLAMR.
5. Malin+Goetz Essential Kit ($30)
The Malin+Goetz Essential Kit includes the brand’s best sellers all sized to fly. The 1 oz. travel ready essentials include: grapefruit face cleanser, vitamin e face moisturizer, bergamot body wash, vitamin b5 body moisturizer, peppermint shampoo and cilantro conditioner. My personal favorite product from this kit is the peppermint shampoo. The invigorating scent purifies both hair and scalp and has a cooling effect which is perfect for Summer. Buy at SAKS.
6. Cocofloss Pure Strawberry Dental Floss ($8)
Packing a toothbrush is a no-brainer but not all of us remember to bring floss when going on a trip. The Cocofloss Dental Floss is a must-have when traveling. Unlike other flosses with slippery surfaces, Cocofloss has a towel-like texture that scrubs surfaces free of plaque and food. Their subtle fruit scent makes flossing a bit more enjoyable and within each dispenser is 32 yards of floss. Buy at BIGELOWCHEMISTS.
7. Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Kiss Cupuacu Lip Butter .21 oz ($18)
Lip balm is a must for traveling, or even when just being out and about. The Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Kiss Cupuacu Lip Butter is perfect for your travel bag being that it’s small yet a very effective balm. Infused with nourishing cupuaçu, açaí, and coconut oil, lips are left soft and hydrated. This lip butter also has an invigorating Brazilian caramel scent. Buy at SEPHORA.
