How good are you about maintaining your common magnificence routine whenever you’re on trip?
As of late, I pare every little thing all the way down to the barest of necessities for skincare, hair and make-up.
Skincare
For my face and physique, I’ll do a double cleanse, moisturizer and sunscreen, and if I’m going to be out within the solar lots, then all of these issues can be very mild — no energetic elements.
This was a lesson I needed to be taught the onerous means, ahhh! I’ll always remember how offended my cheeks and lips have been after I piled on a bunch of exfoliators and antioxidants once we have been in Hawaii just a few years in the past. No extra of that!
Make-up
For make-up, it actually is determined by the place we’re going. Say as an illustration, tenting by the Russian River, which is what we did final weekend. I knew that I wouldn’t wish to hassle with placing on or taking off make-up, so I simply left all of it at dwelling. I wore a hydrating lip balm and that was it!
But when we’re occurring a visit the place there could also be a combo of out of doors issues (just like the seashore) and indoor issues (like dinner or a go to to a mall), then I’ll convey minimal make-up. I can get by with tinted moisturizer, forehead pencil, mascara, eyeliner, a blush/bronzer duo and gloss.
Yup, I don’t even hassle taking concealer on journeys anymore, LOL!
I’m telling you, the previous couple of years (particularly 2020) modified me. I discover that I’m a lot happier getting by with a handful of make-up that I do know and love.
I’m wondering generally if I’ll ever be the glam traveler that I was, however that’s one other Magnificence Q for an additional time. 🙂
Hair
OK, hair. So right here’s what I’ve realized about rising out your grays and in addition having loopy @ss cowlicks that stick up in any respect angles: throwing your hair up in a funban or a ponytail turns into, properly, difficult. Once I do that, all of the grays come out alongside my hairline and I really feel prefer it makes my face look extreme.
So, if we’re doing a combo outside/indoor journey, I’ll do lengthy, side-swept bangs that I blow out with a spherical brush. For the remainder of my hair, I’ll curl just a few items round my face with a big barrel curling iron.
If it’s something within the woods like tenting, then overlook about it. I simply put my hair again and reside with the loopy, LOL! Or I throw a hat on.
That is all very completely different from what I used to do 10 years in the past. I’d take the entire kit-and-caboodle with me wherever I went.
Isn’t it attention-grabbing how our magnificence journey can generally take these loopy turns?
Anywho, let me know what you do as of late. Do you retain your common magnificence routine whenever you take summer season journeys? Or do you do a modified, pared-down model of pores and skin, hair and make-up?
Your pleasant neighborhood magnificence addict,
