Since we entered the month of March, all we can seem to think about is jetting off to the tropics — and indulging in a little spring break beauty retail therapy in preparation, of course. When taking trips around this time of year, it feels necessary to refresh our makeup kits with sun-kissed shades and SPF-packed products — so long as they’re travel-proof.
Frequent flyers will know that packing beauty items for a sunny escape requires precise planning and smart thinking, so as to avoid storage struggles and having our precious liquids swiped away at the security check-in. Whether you’re planning a getaway for *actual* spring break or just have travel plans in your future, we’ve rounded up 15 carry-on-approved travel beauty products you’ll need for your upcoming voyage.
Browse the gallery below for our favourite travel beauty products, from mini makeup must-haves like waterproof mascara and travel-size skincare to an unreal hydrating body glow oil.
Glossier’s Balm Dotcom doubles as a hydrating lip balm and skin salve, plus the mango shade smells like the tropics and has a light peach tint so you can leave your lipsticks at home.
Want to even out your complexion without the heaviness of a traditional foundation? Shop one of five shades from La Roche-Posay’s tinted sunscreen lineup.
Packing multipurpose products is a must when travelling — so it’s a good thing this mini Rare Beauty mist is a four-in-one skin hydrator, makeup primer, setting spray and refresher.
