Hey guys~This is Jen.
And today I'm going to show you some of my favorite products that I take with me on a short trip.
Now I do a lot of traveling.
So it’s given me a lot of time to be able to pick and choose things that definitely come in handy, especially when I don't have a lot of time and I don't have a lot of choices.
I hope you guys enjoy watching.
If you would like to see what my travel-picks are, then keep watching.
So the first thing is a Small Eyeshadow Palette. This is my favorite one.
I love the Naked Basics palette.
It just comes in this tiny, little, iphone-sized container.
It has a few different eyeshadows and then mostly neutral and matte, which I love, because you can never go wrong with a neutral-matte-eyeshadow no matter what kind of situation you are in.
And it has a really dark color, so you can do a smoky-eye.
Then it has lighter colors, so you can just do a every-day casual look.
It has a giant mirror, too. So you don't need to worry bringing an extra mirror.
I absolutely love this. It’s perfect, perfect for travel.
Another similar product is bringing a Blush/Bronzer Duo.
I have a couple of different options that I take with me, but this is one that I have a lot of people recommend.
This is from ELF. And this one is actually really known for being a dupe of the NARS Orgasm-Laguna Bronzer Duo.
So it’s a lot more affordable option if you don't want to spend that kind of money.
But it still has a really slick, slim, light-weight case, so it’s really easy to take with you.
The next product that I want to talk about is actually just Aquaphor.
When you're on an airplane, everything gets dry. Your skin gets dry. Your throat gets dry. Your lips gets dry.
So it’s really important to take some kind of lip balm that doesn't have too much in it.
You don't want anything too minty cause that can also be drying.
If you have dry elbow, or dry cuticles, you can always add this on to it as well.
Sticking with the theme of lip products, I think it’s so important to have a MLBB with you on any trip.
MLBB stands for My Lips But Better.
I actually have a whole video on my top favorite MLBBs, which I will link right over here if you haven't seen that video yet.
But this is the one I'm wearing today. It’s the Maybelline Color Whisper Lipstick in Rose of Attraction. And I really like it.
It’s very affordable and it’s hydrating. And it just looks really nice without too much guessworks, which I feel like if you are on the run, it’s really important to have one of those.
You also need some kind of statement lip.
I feel like any time I’m traveling, more often than not, I’m in the situation that I need to look pulled-together really quickly.
And I don't have a lot of makeup to do that. And my two gotos are having a statement lipstick.
This one is Stiletto Red by Too Faced. It’s their La Creme lipstick and I love, love this color.
And the second product is to have a really really great winged-eyeliner. So this is the one I've been using lately.
It’s by NYX and it’s their The Curve eyeliner.
When I'm traveling I don't wanna carry too many brushes cause they take up a lot of luggage space.
So it’s really handy to have a products with you that don't need an additional brush to be able to use, especially if you have to clean those brushes all the time.
Because to be honest, when I'm traveling, I don't to more than spot cleaning my brushes.
I love this one. It’s just a pen-style eyeliner and you don't need anything else to use it.
The next product I wanna talk about is a perfume atomizer.
I've been using these kind of perfume atomizers for a while now and they super super come in handy.
Everybody knows after a long road trip, or a long plane ride, the last thing on earth you wanna do is to step off that plane being kind of stinky, so it’s important to have a little bit of something to just freshen up your scent.
I like this one. This is the Travalo.
I’m sure you guys have heard about it before because it’s a pretty handy product.
Basically, you just take a perfume like this. It’s the Jo Malone Nectarine Blossom & Honey cologne.
So I love this so much, but look how giant the bottle is. I would literally die if this broken in my luggage.
I mean my stuff will smell amazing but I'll be super sad.
So all you have to do is you just pop off the top like that. You have this little nubbins. This is like the same on all perfumes.
It has a little hole in the bottom. And you just fill it up by pumping it down.
It’s nice because this is really sturdy and I don’t worry about it leaking, pouring perfume all over my things and my luggage.
It’s just really lightweight and easy to take with you.
I actually keep this in my purse with me as well so I can spread anytime I needed.
If you guys want to check this out, I will leave the link down below and you can actually get 20% off on it, so that’s a really handy product.
The next product I want to talk about is actually an Eyedrops.
Eyes get really tired and red and dry, especially on airplanes. So it’s really important to make sure you keeping all areas hydrated.
And I especially like this one. It’s the Rhoto Lycee Eyedrops and I got this one from Pretty & Cute. (It) has a adorable little container.
I especially like keeping this handy.
Not just because your eyes might get dry but anytime you might be in a pinch and wanting to do, for instance, a liquid eyeliner.
And you didn’t to bring your handy dandy pen style liner you can just add this to a little bit of powder eyeshadow and make it work.
It has a little bit of the ingredient that will make it hold onto your skin better than just water.
Another product that I found is super handy and a little bit unconventional is actually having a Small Tackle Box.
And the reason is that anytime you might have anything little that might get lost in your luggage. This can keep it altogether and right where you can see everything.
So...I actually have a few pairs of false eyelashes in it.
But I also love to keep jewelry in here as well. So if you want a few different pairs of earring studs, or necklaces.
This one is actually adjustable, so I have a large compartment here, and a few small ones here.
And you can just carry it with you, especially if things are a little bit more valuable and you don't want to put it in your checked luggage.
And then finally my last product that is a must-have-necessary product for any trip I ever go on. It’s having a dry-shampoo.
Not just any kind of dry shampoo but one that's not in aerosol can. This is my favorite one.
It’s by Stila . I bought it from the Stila website cause I found that websites like Sephora don't seem to carry it. But it is one of my longtime holy grails.
I've used this one for years and it has lasted me so so long.
It’s the Stila Hair Refresher in Jade Blossom, which is a beautiful scent.
It’s not too heavy. It’s not physically too heavy, either. So you can put it in any of your luggage.
Not to mention there’s no liquid involved, so you can carry it with you on your carry-on just fine.
If your hair gets a little flat on the airplane, or if you are wearing a hat and you just don't want to look greasy, or if you just need to a little bit of refreshing so you get a bit of volume....
....just sprinkle a little bit of this on your roots and just kind of work it into your hair. It absorbs all of the oil and smells super nice.
I don't know what I would do without this. This is something that I hope I can keep repurchasing forever and ever.
So I guess that’s about it.
I hope this was helpful for any of you who are going on a trip in the near future and want a few ideas of things that you have to take with you.
So this is Jen. And I will talk to you guys in my next video!
