Your Go-To Travel Skincare Kit: Simple Essentials for Every Trip
Share
Whether you're heading out for a summer vacation, a cozy winter cabin escape, or a last-minute weekend getaway, keeping your skincare routine simple and effective is key. I know how tempting it is to toss everything into your bag "just in case" — but honestly, you don’t need to pack your whole bathroom to keep your skin soft, clean, and glowing on the go.
When I travel, I rely on just a few multitasking essentials that save space without compromising on results. My full-size products are compact enough for carry-ons, and I also have a sample-size travel set that’s perfect for short trips if you want to pack extra light.
Here’s what I always keep in my skincare travel bag:
✨ Facial Oil Serum: Your Skincare Swiss Army Knife
This is the one I never leave home without. My Facial Oil Serum does the work of multiple products in one tiny bottle. I use it as:
- An oil cleanser to melt away sunscreen or makeup after a long day
- A nourishing facial serum to lock in moisture (especially on dry airplane skin)
- A lightweight moisturizer when I want that healthy, dewy glow
It comes in a compact 30ml glass bottle with a dropper, so it's perfect for your travel skincare kit. You don’t have to worry about spills or leaks, and it fits easily in your skincare travel bag without weighing things down.
☁️ Suds: The Powdered Cleanser That Travels Like a Dream
Instead of a bulky bottle of face wash, I bring Suds — my gentle travel size facial cleanser (even though it's technically full-size, it’s small and lightweight enough to travel with). It’s a water-activated powder, which means:
- No risk of spills in your bag
- Super gentle for daily use (even on sensitive skin)
- Lightly coffee-scented and made with colloidal oatmeal, kaolin clay, and rice flour
Just shake a little into your hand, add water, and lather up. It leaves my skin soft and clean without feeling tight or stripped — and because it's dry, it's TSA-friendly too.
💫 Salve: For All the “Just in Case” Moments
When you're on the go, anything can happen — chapped lips, dry elbows, windburn, wild brows. I always keep my Salve tin close by because it works for everything. I’ve used it to:
- Soothe dry patches and sunburn
- Tame flyaways and brows
- Protect lips from dry air or cold weather
It’s ultra-nourishing, mess-free, and small enough to slip into a pocket or purse. Whether I’m hiking, sightseeing, or just out with the kids, it’s my go-to fix-all.
🧳 Want to Pack Even Lighter?
If you're just heading out for the weekend, my sample set includes all three of these essentials in smaller sizes that easily fit in any travel set or carry-on. It’s a great way to test everything and still have enough product to last several days.
I created these products to make skincare feel easy. You don't need a dozen steps or a separate product for every concern. Just a few well-made, gentle, multitasking staples that work — no matter where you're headed.
