7 Beauty Hacks To Use When Traveling

Traveling these days can be a hassle, especially when you rely on your trusted daily use of beauty products and routines. Minimizing and simplifying your beauty choices is the way to go when traveling, and trying a few of these hacks will rapidly help and improve your vacation experience. Continue reading to discover some helpful travel beauty hacks to use next time you have a trip booked. 

1. Dry Shampoo & Conditioner

Keeping on top of your hairs cleanliness can be a challenge when traveling, but making the efficient decision to ditch your large shampoo bottles and invest in some travel-size dry shampoo and conditioner might be worth your while. As many may already know, showering each day is already damaging enough to your hairs health, so taking this opportunity to stick to dry products for a few days can be a beneficial traveling decision either way. A few excellent dry shampoo choices to try for your next trip is Amika’s Perk-Up Talc Free Dry Shampoo, Moroccanoil Dry Shampoo for Light Tones, Klorane Dry Shampoo With Oat Milk and Billie Floof Dry Shampoo. These options are all top-rated and contain chemicals that promote healthy and clean hair. You can also make the choice to invest in a dry conditioner as well, such as the Drybar Detox Dry Conditioner

2. Refillable Perfume Atomizer Bottles

Investing in a few of these from amazon can make your airport and packing experience much more swift. Everyone wants the ability to bring their favorite perfume with them on vacation, but what do you do if the packaging is too large or delicate? Simply invest in a few refillable perfume atomizers. These are very manageable to use and efficiently transport your desired perfume in a tiny, sprayable bottle while traveling. To use an atomizer, simply remove the spray cap on your perfume bottle and press the top of the atomizer down onto it. This will slowly fill your atomizer in a way that won’t waste any of your product. They are also staggeringly small, portable and strong, so even dropping one will not cause any breakage for spills like a regular perfume bottle would. Bed Bath and Beyond’s Kitcheniva 3-Pieces Mini Refillable Perfume Atomizer Bottles make an ideal option for your next trip. 

3. Facial Mist, Sheets & Wipes

A common issue that many travelers suffer from is sudden breakouts, along with oily and dry skin. Because of the altering changes in air quality, food and lack of bathroom accessibility, your skin can suffer from these changes. Some easy methods to preventing this uncomfortable occurrence is to invest in facial mist, oil blotting sheets or moist towelette wipes that hydrate and replenish your skin. Facial mist infused with hyaluronic acid that lock in moisture is an exemplary method to keeping your skin hydrated and glowing during your travels. Oil blotting sheets will reduce the appearance of oil build up on your skin, which is caused from changes in air quality. Facial wipes are a different method to using facial mist, and may even be more efficient due to its makeup removing ability. Some top-rated brands to try before your next trip is the Herbivore Rose Hibiscus Hydrating Face Mist, the Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Facial Sheets and the Simple Kind To Skin Cleansing Wipes.

4. Travel Size Straightener, Blow Dryer & Curler

Lugging around your heavy hair styling products can feel like a burden during your travels if they take up too much space and add some extra pounds to your luggage. Luckily, there is a solution to this universal problem, and that is investing in travel-size styling products that will efficiently fit into your luggage. These mini products make for a great travel investment and last a long time. They will also conveniently fit in your purse depending on the size, making them easily accessible for whenever your hair needs styling after your long hours of traveling. A few go-to brands that provide these mini styling tools is BaBlyissPro’s Mini Straightening Iron With Travel Pouch, Flower Beauty’s Ionic Travel Dryer and Ulta’s Unbound Petite From Conair Cordless 3/4 Inch Ceramic Mini Multi-Styler. These mini styling tools paired with your favorite travel size dry shampoo and conditioner makes for the perfect match when traveling. 

5. Beauty Travel Bag

Making the time to find a convenient beauty traveling bag will be worth your while, especially when it maximizes your luggage space. The Women’s Toiletry Cosmetic and Travel Bag with Hanging Hook by Kabuer can fit your hair styling tools, hair products, facial products and makeup all into one bag. Because of its ability to open up into four different compartments, this bag grants you the ability to make packing and accessing your beauty products much easier. Kabuer’s bag also features a convenient hook that can hang onto a door, allowing you with even more space at your destination. The compartments are also clear and transparent, making it quick and easy to find what you need.

6. Skip Long Lasting Lipstick & Apply Lip Treatment

Chapped lips are a common problem that many of us travelers usually forget about. Because of the constant changes in air quality and elevation, your lips can naturally lose hydration and become dry and brittle, making your trip less enjoyable. If you are normally into a matte lipstick, try regularly using a lip treatment such as Laneiges Lip Glowy Balm before applying. Another option is to try out a tinted chapstick such as Burts Bees Tinted Lip Balm which will give you the tinted look you need along with your essential hydration. 

7. Travel Size Bottles

While this one is a very popular travel hack, it is also an important one. Getting a few quality refillable travel-size bottles for your next trip is a must, especially if you are bringing lotions, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and more. Using these bottles with some added labels can reduce your carry-on troubles at the airport and make packing go much smoother than if you were to use regular sized bottles. These Travel Size Toiletries by Air Den turn this packing process into a cute and affordable one. 

Using these convenient travel hacks will make your next trip a much more fun and easier one. Simply adding your favorite hydrating face mist, a mini straightener and some lip treatment to your travel bag can prevent any traveling issues or frustrations during your next trip.
