Heading abroad this summer, here are the best tips to packing like a pro.
These tips will have you travelling like a pro, whether its to start a long-awaited epic adventure or for a short trip.
Ask yourself the following questions
is the item available in the destination?
If the answer is yes, then it’s best to pack travel mini products for the onboard travel essentials (makeup remover, hydrating mask and skin tint) there are great options available in the travel mini section available at Space NK and Arnotts. There are some purchases that can be made in the destination (for example purchasing sunscreens in Australia)
Where possible, replace liquids with powders and solids.
As far as fragrances are concerned, either purchase the mini or atomiser bottles from the likes of The Perfume Shop and Boots. These need to be on everyone’s list. full sized fragrances can be purchased from Duty free and in the destination.
Are there products that are in the routine that not released to the public yet?
With many companies European offices being based in Ireland this is quite possibly something to think about the best option then would be the pricey, yet, viral Cadence travel containers.
What travel make-up is best to use?
Clear make-up bags are best as there is a better chance of locating the product you need in a small space. This Space NK Medium Travel bag €30 is a great reusable long term option.
Always have a spare liquid bag on hand just in case, the security at the airport is strict, like at Heathrow.
If there is a must have product that you cannot leave home without first of all check if the full size and mini is available in your destination.
