In this blog post, we'll introduce you to the favourite travel-sized natural beauty products of our team. These are items that we always take with us on our travels to keep us looking and feeling your best, without weighing down our luggage. Say goodbye to bulky bottles and hello to compact, eco-friendly essentials that deliver maximum impact with minimal effort
The Essential Mineral SPF
Sun cream is essential for any holiday, whether it's a UK staycation or jetting off somewhere tropical. Lolly's favourite sunscreen for travel is Odylique's SPF30.
The Best Lightweight Moisturising Serum
Our skin's sebum production can go a bit wild when the humidity and heat ramps up so having something that feels light on the skin but still gives you all the hydration you need is important. Suzie's favourite lightweight skincare is Omnis' Nourishing Defence Serum:
"I am in love with the scent of the Omnis Nourishing Defence it smells of holidays!
With Isotonic Mediterranean sea water, hibiscus extract and juniper in a light lotion base, it feels gorgeous on the skin, quickly soaking leaving behind happy uplifted skin vibes. It helps reduce pigmentation and feels really nourishing like its name! Careful if you try it, it's addictive!" Suzie
The All Round Product for Bites, Cuts, Scrapes, Spots and Ingrown Hairs
In hotter or more humid climes, we can be more susceptible to being tempting fodder for mosquitoes, midges, bees, wasps and other insects so it's important to carry that all-in-one solution to you travel first aid kit. Karen loves taking Odylique's Spot on Serum with her on holiday which, not only soothes the itch from a mosi bite but is really handy for a whole host of other ailments:
"I'll be taking a mini Odylique Spot on Serum with me to Spain where I'm getting married in August. I got stung by a bee in the shop last week and Suzie quickly slapped a load of this on my leg. It immediately brought down the heat and the itch so I know it'll be great for mosquito bites, sunburn and any last minute spots and blemishes that emerge before my big day!"
The Best Shampoo Bar for Overheated Hair
Whether we're exposing our hair to the elements for the perfect beachy waves, not sure how our hair will fare in a new type of water, or we're upping the amount of heat applied to it thanks to long evenings out in cute dresses sipping cocktails, by mid-summer, our hair can be looking a bit frazzled. Priya's go-to product is Kind2's Hydrating Shampoo Bar:
"Ok, let's talk about the brilliance of this shampoo bar! Through years of box dye and heat damage, I really fried my hair so I always need a hydrating shampoo that doesn't weigh down my hair. Kind2 makes the perfect product, especially when I travel and fear for how my hair might react to different water (although, anything is better than London water right?)"
