Do you feel like you neglect your skin while you travel? Having to choose between your favorite beauty products while you’re packing for a trip seems like mission impossible? I totally get it.
I often see two cases scenario: #1 You have too many beauty products and you have to choose which one to bring because your suitcase is too heavy, or #2 You’re the one who gives up and brings one tube of cream that does it all.
Let’s be honest, that doesn’t do anything but make you feel bad.
You know what, there’s no need to sacrifice your beauty routine when you travel!
Oh yeah, with these five beauty essentials to travel light, you can keep your skin looking its best no matter where your travels take you.
From an all in one Rose Water Cleanser to a Mineral Lightweight Sunscreen, these products will cover all your bases and help you travel light without ever neglecting your skin.
And best of all, these products are perfect for every skin type and every occasion, whether you’re going on a few days road trip or taking a backpack for a long vacation.
So, ditch the heavy travel-sized products and pack these five must-haves instead – have a nice trip!
1. Rose Water Facial toner from Phytomer – A Hydrating Cleanser, Makeup Remover and Anti-Aging Lotion
Obviously, my number one choice is the Phytomer Rose Water. I love to travel light, and the perfect product to do that is rose water. This product does it all: it’s a cleanser, make-up remover and toning lotion all in one and it suits all skin types.
For dry skin, rose water moisturizes, and for skin that tends to be oily, it gets rid of small pimples and impurities. Its astringent effect helps to heal pimples and to reduce the appearance of scars.
In addition to all these benefits, rose water has anti-aging properties and revitalizing effects. That makes it the perfect partner when we expose our skin to the sun. Here’s an extra trick, make cool rose water compress on your eyes to get rid of dark circles and puffiness.
Need an easy body moisturizer? Use it with a spray on your body!
If you can, keep the product in a cool place, even better. This is by far the first product I would add to my travel bag to keep it light and to continue taking care of my skin while traveling.

3. Sun Silk Cream COOLA – The Perfect Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30
If you’re looking for sunscreen that does it all, COOLA’s Sun Silk sunscreen has got you covered. With its mineral SPF 30, this sunscreen defends your skin from UV rays, infrared rays, blue light and pollution.
And not only does it protect your skin, it contains antioxidant and anti-aging ingredients. It’s a 2-in-1 sunscreen that makes your life much easier.
On top of that, this sunscreen moisturizes your skin and leaves behind a slightly mattifying fine texture like silk.
Plus, it suits all skin types, it can be applied alone or on top of the Esthederm Cellular Concentrate and can be used as makeup base. Isn’t that great!
And finally, COOLA ensures their sunscreen is 70% organic ingredients, fragrance-free, paraben-free and reef-friendly – four cheers for the sunscreen that does it all
4. Exfoliating Glove for the Body – Your Daily Tool for a Smooth Skin
At home, the most neglected part of our beauty routine is most of the time exfoliation.
So, I guess when you travel it’s non-existent.
Exfoliation is underestimated, but it is the most important part of your beauty routine.
It keeps your complexion radiant, helps your products to penetrate and be more efficient, stimulates your blood circulation, and much much more.
When you have to keep your skin exfoliated and hydrated on the go, the exfoliating body glove is THE choice! A light massage every day in the shower with the glove removes dead skin cells, improves blood circulation for both anti cellulite benefits and better hydration and the list continues!
Your skin will feel silky soft and look smoother than ever before!
When summer arrives and you’re ready to hit up the beach, you’ll be so glad you used this glove because with exfoliation comes a beautiful and even tan – how amazing is that?! You’ll be sure to turn heads while getting a better hold of your tan!
No wonder why I absolutely love using the exfoliating body glove.
And did I mention that it’s as small as a hotel soap sample but lighter in your travel bag.
It’s super convenient, easy to use anytime, anywhere.
Now, the only headache is to choose the color.
5. Adaptasun Milky Body Spray from Esthederm – Hydrates and Protects your Skin
Last but not least, I add to my bag Esthederm’s Adaptasun Milky Body Spray. I absolutely love this product because it gives me sun protection while giving my skin the glow I want during sun exposures.
With a protection factor of 35 SPF and a milky texture that never feels sticky on your skin, this formula hydrates your body and protects against external factors.
The added ray of sunshine is that it’s not just a protection : its patented anti-aging formula and tanning stimulator will intensify your natural goldy tanning glow and reduce the appearance of dry and wrinkled skin.
Do you like to keep your tan long after your trip? The Adapatsun patent contained in this moisturizing milk allows your skin to stay golden and tanned for several weeks after you’re back home, leaving your skin feeling luminous, soft and radiantly youthful.
There you have it all!
My five beauty essentials that I never leave home without. These five products are the perfect beauty kit for a light and convenient way to take care of your skin when you travel without neglecting one inch of it.
