It’s fun to travel. It’s the most rewarding investment that you could make, and certainly an experience that which you will never forget, even if it’s conducted to conduct business. But traveling can be stressful, particularly when you consider that you have to pack everything you own in one bag.

Packing your gorgeous dress along with your favourite foundation is something you should do, but it’s also an invitation to disaster. It’s possible for makeup to spill, break and turn into your dress’s most terrifying nightmare if they’re inside one bag. In addition it off, airlines are extremely strict with regards to liquids, that you could believe that taking makeup with you isn’t worth the risk.

There are few tricks and tips to assist you in traveling with less weight and still have all the things you require to look stunning while traveling and enjoying beautiful locations.

What to pack for makeup when you Travel
The first thing you need to be thinking about when you travel wearing makeup includes how to carry it. It’s not a good idea to have all your highlighters, foundations and eyeshadows scattered throughout your suitcase or bag. Put everything in a safe makeup bag. Choose a makeup bag that is that is clear that you can remove any spills that occur. Clear bags allow you to know what you’ve got in the bag. Additionally, it’s much easy to place it in the clear plastic bag that is required at the airport, meaning even the agent will be able to check what’s in your bag without having to rummage through your bags.

Also, since you’re trying to reduce the amount of things you take with you, think of the items that you could reuse to serve other uses. For instance, a beautiful lipstick could be used as blush and a glittery eyeshadow can make a great highlighter and concealers can be used in place of your primer for the eyes.

Also, you’ll need something to get off all the makeup with. We’ve all heard that facial cleanser comes in big packages, and isn’t something you can carry in your carry-on. Therefore, instead of carrying your regular cleanser, opt for quality face wipes. Although you shouldn’t do this routine (face wipes don’t do a good job to remove all dirt and makeup off your face) it will keep you secure for a few weeks. Be sure to wash the face thoroughly with clean water following use.

Strategies for Air Travel
As you’ve probably guessed it is a bit of a hassle to travel by air particularly when you’re taking a trip of a shorter duration and you are only taking bags for carry-on. Rules are rules and if you fail to adhere to them, you could need to sell that one thing you’ve always loved due to its size to be carried on a plane.

However, this is much less of a problem if you pack your makeup in smaller bottles. There are inexpensive sets of travel-sized bottles for cosmetics and makeup, and put your essentials in the bottles.

Another idea is to use compacts rather than liquids. So, you don’t need to go through the stress in pouring the foundation out of one bottle to the next. Additionally, compact products can be handled more easily when you’re working in a hurry. It is crucial that you cushion the compacts by using either a sponge or cotton ball. A lot of products come with cotton pads that can prevent breaking.

If you can, don’t bring costly eyeshadow palettes. They are likely to break inside your luggage or in your carry-on bag, and are usually too bulky and expensive to carry. Instead, pack a single shadow or two or do not bother with the entire process and use mascara and eyeliner alone.

It is recommended to carry multiple lipsticks as they’re small and easy to carry around, and they can be used as other products too. Some lipsticks can be applied to your eyes, if the formula is vegan and safe for the eyes So make sure you verify before applying them to your lids.

Also, ensure that you ensure that your items are secured inside your bag. If travelling, your luggage will take many bumps, particularly when you’re in a plane, and you bump it on every corner. Make use of your clothes to shield your makeup bag. You can also individually cover your most valuable items. In this way, you’re creating a cushion , and you are preventing accidental breakage.

If you’re transporting loose powder you should tape the lids so that the powder doesn’t get everywhere. Cover your nail polishes in Clingfilm to aid in fastening the lids. Secure the caps of liquid lipsticks and lip glosses lipsticks with rubber bands similar to the ones your grandmother used to seal the lids of jam containers.

The Essentials Checklist
Be sure to have everything you’ll require when packing for your travels. The things you’ll want to bring are different based on the kind of travel you’re planning.
