With summer right around the corner, all we can think about is sinking our toes in the sand with a refreshing margarita in hand. Aren’t you ready for a calmer, more relaxing pace – inclusive of a beachside view? Whether you’re jet setting to a tropical destination or the beach is in your backyard, read on for the essentials to ensure a hassle-free getaway.
Traveler Approved
Travel smart, secure and in style with JOY hardside luggage (5/19 TS). The pocket drawers make packing and unpacking a walk in the park. You will be amazed with how much room you have for organizing. Another plus…the spin ball wheels provide 360-degree movement so it won’t drag behind when en route to your final destination. Did we mention the color options are fabulous?
We never vacation without our My Little Steamer to smooth out wrinkles in the clothes we have to jam-pack in our suitcase. This is hands-down the best handheld steamer – with 900 watts of steaming power, it easily removes the deepest lines. The mini steamer and storage bag combo are perfect for traveling.
Don’t leave home without your beauty must-haves (we’ll get to those shortly!). Find a beauty case that will hold all of your go-to products while on-the-go. This JOY case opens flat for full access to items and rolls up for convenient storage – it also tucks nicely into your luggage.
Beauty Bag Essentials
While the higher temps and laidback vibes typically call for a more relaxed beauty regimen, we shouldn’t have to leave behind our favorite products. Invest in travel-sized beauty and hair essentials that will last for several vacations.
Every traveler needs this must-have collection of iconic Too Faced products. This travel set comes with the popular Better Than Sex mascara, hydrating face primer, mascara dissolver, matte liquid lipstick (in a top-selling shade), and our favorite shimmer-free matte bronzer that smells as divine as milk chocolate. Skip the foundation and mix Benefit Cosmetics high beam highlighter with your moisturizer for an all-over subtle glow to play up your sun-kissed complexion.
Create “beachy” textured and touchable waves with the help of Fekkai beach waves spray. Accentuate your natural curls or add volume to wavy or air-dried locks with this spritz that won’t leave your hair feeling sticky or tangled.
Sun-Kissed Necessities
First and foremost, don’t forget the sunscreen. This Hampton Sun travel kit comes with two SPF 35 continuous mist sunscreens and a moisturizing aloe spray in case you overindulge in the sun. The oil-free formula moisturizes while blocking those harmful rays.
Give your skin the moisture it needs post-beach with Korres Guava body butter. The luxuriously hydrating formula helps smooth the look of your skin and the Guava scent smells like a vacation in a bottle. Fresh, feminine and tranquil – this will soon become a regular in your getting-ready routine.
P.S. Want to get a head start on your sun-kissed glow? We highly recommend using Tan-Luxe anti-aging self-tan drops for the face and body ahead of your beach getaway. These self-tanning drops turn your favorite moisturizers, serums and oils into custom-made self-tanners with no streaks, no bad smell and no mess. You’re welcome.
