Whether you’re setting off on a weekend adventure with friends, embarking on a much-anticipated family trip, or even travelling for work, it’s always exciting to be going someplace new. And with the right beauty travel tools, you can maintain your springtime fresh look no matter where you go! It’s just a matter of knowing the key travel products to pack in your carry-on.
Here are our top tips for keeping beautiful while travelling.
1. Leak-Proof Travel Containers
You need to take your skincare products with you when you travel, and while certain brands make travel-sized versions, another simple travel trick is to decant your favourite lotions and creams into a leakproof travel bottle or jar. This way you can keep that fresh look even if you’ve spent 18 hours on a plane!
Our recommendation: DEWY’s Leakproof Silicone Travel Bottles or Mini Travel Cream Jars are the perfect travel solution. Made from durable silicone, these are 100% leakproof and come in a variety of sizes and colours for easy access beauty travel. They are aeroplane carry-on friendly as they are just below the typical 100ml-per-item liquid limit for international travel.
2. A Travel Brush
One of the first things we do when trying to make ourselves look presentable is grab the closest hairbrush and try to tame the mane! That’s because our hair creates the first impression – sophisticated, fun-loving, or sleep-deprived. A good travel hairbrush is a must-have companion on your journey. It will not only prevent any unmanageable tangles but can prevent your hair from looking too dry or oily, depending on your destination.
Our recommendation: Either DEWY’s Mini Detangler Brush or Mini Mixed Quill Brush. These lightweight travel brushes fit snugly in your handbag and are ideal for detangling wet or dry hair while evenly distributing natural oils.
3. An Eye Mask
Sleeping with an eye mask is not only chic, it has many health and beauty benefits as well, from protecting the eyes and reducing anxiety to increased REM sleep. The eye mask is even more beneficial when you’re travelling as it provides a sense of normalcy for uninterrupted sleep. Always opt for silk which is shown to prevent wrinkles, retain moisture, and even help prevent acne.
Our Recommendation: DEWY’s Beauty Sleep Eye Mask is a 100% mulberry silk mask that ensures you wake up feeling rested and pampered wherever you are.
4. Versatile Travel Mats
Alongside a great travel brush, you might need to travel with your heating iron if you’re travelling for business or an elegant function. The danger is that a heating iron is a fire risk if not properly stored. However, there are versatile travel mats that are specially designed to store heating irons when you’re on the go. This is a great way to ensure you keep beautiful while travelling.
Our Recommendation: The Hair Iron Mat by DEWY is made from heat-resistant silicone so that you can place the heating iron on the mat while in use, and store it in the pouch when you’re done. Its slip-resistant design means it can double as somewhere to place a hot coffee cup while travelling.
5. Makeup Application Containers
Packing makeup in a nifty travel bag is a must to keep you beautiful while on the go, but one of the biggest challenges is where to store your makeup applicators such as sponges. If left loose in a makeup bag, they can smear makeup everywhere while gathering dust and germs. You can opt for something like a travel soap holder or sponge holder.
Our Recommendation: The Beauty Sponge Holder by DEWY protects your sponges, keeping your travel case clean and your sponges hygienic.
6. Spa Face Mask
Travel, especially air travel, can dehydrate the skin resulting in oiliness, puffiness, and breakouts. This doesn’t help if you’re trying to travel while beautiful! However, you can counter this by sleeping with a spa face mask as this will cool the skin, retaining its moisture and preventing unwanted puffiness.
Our Recommendation: DEWY’s Spa Face Mask will keep you fresh and comfortable, reducing pressure on flights.
7. A Body Brush
Finally, feel rejuvenated and relaxed by keeping a handy travel body brush with you whenever you leave the house. This will ensure you have a good clean, removing dead skin, dirt, and make-up after travelling quickly and easily for that fresh feeling.
Our Recommendation: The Gentle Body Brush by DEWY which has fine silicone bristles designed to mildly exfoliate the entire body.
Keep looking springtime fresh when you travel with DEWY’s range of travel accessories, hair, beauty, and body products designed for the on-the-go woman!
