So What Should I Bring?

The question "what skincare should I bring" is one that will require a little reflection on your skin and how it behaves. 

It's likely that you won't have room for every single step in your regimen, but that's okay. 

Ask yourself...

1. Is my skin typically dry or oily?
2. Will I be in the sun? This one is a trick questions, you're always going to be exposed to the sun at some point during your trip (unless you're going camping in an underground cave)
3. Do I need to keep up with any treatments (e.g. for acne)?

Limit What You Bring, Give Your Skin a Break

Try to limit your travel kit to 3 products at the most. Trust us, traveling light is well worth it!

Giving your skin a break from its normal skincare routine can have many benefits. Why not use your vacation or travel time to break up the routine?

Don't Forget the Essentials

For use, a typical travel pack of skincare includes:

1. Sunscreen - An absolute must. If you'll be on the beach, Face & Body Sunscreen Lotion is the way to go. If you'll be covered and just need protection on the face, try the Weightless Barrier Moisturizer, which also checks the moisturizer box!
2. Spot Treatment - Just in case. You never know when that pimple or other blemish will pop up. Go with the Blemish Vanishing Spot Treatment, and don't forget the q-tips!
3. Evening Cream - If you're going for simple hydration, try the Hyaluronic Silk Moisturizer, or if you want to keep up with your daily Retinol, take along the Retinol Renewal Cream.

Just like that, you're travels are covered!
