1. Travel Toiletry Bag

Take the Hanging Travel Toiletry bag with you while traveling. The travel bag is used to hold all of your toiletries, soap, shampoo, lotion, etc. It has 2 large zippered pockets on the sides where you can slide in make-up brushes or other products. This bag is compact in size but can hold a lot.

For instance, there’s the tall bigger section in the middle, that’s made with mesh inside. It’s stylish and the outside is lined with beautiful fabric. This bag was made to keep all of your toiletries standing upright with 18 vertical pockets, and mesh pockets. It’s water-resistant too, so when you take it in the bathroom, you won’t have any worries about ruining the fabric. If there is not a lot of counter space, then you can use the attached metal hook to hang up the bag.  This will be a good travel companion to keep your essentials in one place.

3. Makeup Remover Wipes

Instead of bringing a big bottle of liquid make-up remover, just bring some disposable makeup remover wipes. The make-up remover wipes by Neutrogena are very convenient especially while traveling. You can use it while on the plane just in case you accidentally smear your make-up. Also can use the wipes after landing to clean your face and refresh your make-up.

4. Origins Ginzing Refreshing Eye Cream 

The Origins GinZing Eye Cream is the truth. It brightens your under-eye and makes you look amazing. I love to use this in the morning especially after I’ve had a long night and couldn’t sleep well. It helps depuff your eyes too. You guys I am serious, it literally brightens your eyes and takes the dark circles away without having to use under eye makeup. It’s thick and silky, and it sometimes can be sticky so you have to be careful when applying it on and make sure that you are padding it in full so that it can absorb into your skin.

5. Fancii LED Lighted Travel Makeup Mirror

This travel Makeup Mirror is a practical beauty accessory to take with you on the go. This mirror is compact, yet bigger than most, it is 5 inches wide yall. It is 2 sided with 1X and 10X magnifying glass in it. This enables you to do your make-up and actually see the full outline of your face.  The magnifying glass comes in handy to tweeze your eyebrows or put eye make-up on. Use the compact mirror while traveling on the plane, instead of getting up to go to that tiny bathroom.

The LED light is an extra bonus to help you see your face in natural light to do your make-up and look your best. Sometimes the hotel’s lighting isn’t that good, so the LED light comes in handy. Because in bad lighting your make-up could look good, but once you get outside, omg it looks like clown makeup sometimes. LOL. If you gifted this to a friend, I’m sure they’ll appreciate it.

7. Burt’s Bees Fabulous Minis Travel Set

The Burt’s Bees Fabulous Minis Travel Set comes with all the essentials needed for body care. These beauty travel products are awesome for pampering yourself while on the go. Just because you’re traveling doesn’t mean you can’t still moisturize and be pampered.  Especially these days while traveling, you will need extra moisturizing because of the constant hand washing and use of hand sanitizer.

It can be easily put in a travel bag without taking up too much space. It’s just about the same size as a bar of soap.
