Holiday Travel: The “World of Kiehl’s” Set

Holiday travel can be the bane of a beauty girl’s existence. On the one hand you are trying to pack light and on the other you can’t travel without a few of your must-have beauty items. This holiday season, let Kiehl’s give you a holly jolly Christmas with their World of Kiehl’s Set. This set includes a perfect TSA-approved sampling of some of Kiehl’s best for your entire body. My top favorite during the colder months is Creme de Corps body lotion and I can guarantee you will find yourself purchasing a full size bottle upon returning.

Airplane air is some of the most drying air you will ever encounter–add that to colder temperatures, and your skin can get extremely parched. I suggest slathering on the Ultra Facial Moisturizer during the flight so your skin arrives picture perfect.

Lastly, please don’t neglect the lips. During the holidays, women tend to wear more red lips and nothing is worse than a dry, cracked, in-need-of-repair pout. To keep your pucker pretty, Kiehl’s Lip Balm #1 to the rescue! Trust me. This product will definitely have you spending more time under the mistletoe.

First Class Beauty: The Ultimate Beauty Carry-On

I have to start by admitting I hate to fly.

I love travel just as much as I love beauty–and it’s important to perfect your beauty carry-on. The beauty carry-on is dependent about the mode of travel and the destination. If I’m traveling to a winter destination my beauty essentials are for hydration. If I’m going to the beach it is products that protect and brighten.

The essentials are always the following no matter the destination.

Sample size eye cream
Sample size moisturizer
Refreshing non-alcoholic spray toner for face
Travel toothbrush and toothpaste
Airborne tablets
Lip balm
Hand cream
Eye drops
Hand sanitizer spray and wipes

First, I don’t believe you should wear makeup on a plane. The air is so drying and your face needs all the moisture it can get on a plane. I believe in carrying a few makeup essentials on the plane so after you step off the plane you look refreshed.

The facial spray that I always turn to for travel is the Caudalie Beauty Elixir. The elixir is more of a facial aromatherapy spray which helps my little area on the plane smell a lot better. I do a few sprays before the plane takes off then apply eye cream and face cream. Depending on the length of the flight I might do this at least 6 times. I try to do it every hour or so.

Once it’s time to land I apply lip gloss, a dab of cream blush, and mascara. This is all you need to land beautifully.
