Summer is the time of the year that we are all looking forward too, in order to indulge in some relaxing moments and explore captivating seaside destinations. Therefore, we tend to pay higher attention to our looks, including self-care techniques that will unlock our radiance, besides our styling.
On the other side, being away from the convenience that our regular basis offers to us, in addition to the conditions of summer climate (temperature, humidity) and the different needs they create, it’s harder to stay stuck in our routine. Although, now it’s more necessary than before.
Understanding ourselves your needs, and the importance a healthy and glowing skin has for your confidence, and level of insouciance during your vacation, we prepared a brief guide. What should you absolutely do and what should you avoid, to boost your efforts for a travel beauty routine?
- Your Daily MakeUp Bag
Whether it’s on the beach you spend the biggest part of your type or exploring your travel destination, a mini pouch with the most necessary beauty products, is unnegotiable. First of all, face sunscreen and mini-size body sunscreen, to apply frequently. Your skin will be grateful for not letting it get burnt and be in pain, thus for preventing the appearance of spots and other marks, over time. Don’t forget to add face moisturizing products, as a mist-spray, to hydrate and refresh your skin, and an aloe-cream or any other type of soothing gel based on natural ingredients, for cases you didn’t avoid sunburn.
Our lips are also a sensitive skin area affected by intense radiation, and climate conditions. A lip balm, ideally with SPF protection, is key to keeping them soft and supple.
- A Balanced Pamper
We have no doubt that at your primary residence you have at your disposal abundant cleansing and skin-repair products. Packing for vacations is accompanied by the incapability of taking them all with you, and stay 100% faithful to your routine. Firstly, because they would occupy a great amount of your luggage’s space, and afterwards because a break from anything strictly repeated in your every-day life, would be recommended as highly beneficial. You have to find the right balance, choosing the essentials that will be thoroughly applied. Your best friend, as always, is a cleansing gel/soap, to wash off your daily make up and remains of sunscreen, as well as sweat residue and dust-particles that have been attached to your skin. Due to the lack of your casual supplementary products, we suggest cleaning your face more often. Since the circumstances according to the hygiene conditions are debatable, wet wipes are also recommended, as long as they don’t fully substitute the proper soap, as this may result in the opposite result.
- Self-Care Mindset
It’s completely normal to want trying to lose track of time and space when on vacation, but if a radiant (and non-strained skin) is a priority for you, your actions and overall behaviour should align. We know that asking you to limit alcohol consumption and useless all-nights, may be too much when being on vacation, but if you plan to do so, at least pay attention to finding substitutes. Hydrate the maximum during the day, stick to a healthier and lighter diet full of nutritional values, or even enhance your body with some antioxidants, like vitamin C and E.
