When traveling this summer, it's essential to keep your makeup fresh and flawless. Whether you're jet-setting to a tropical destination or embarking on a road trip, these best makeup for vacation tips will help keep your makeup in mint condition and gorgeous during your travels to any hot or humid locale on the map.
1. Invest in a Quality Makeup Bag
Choose a durable and well-organized makeup bag to protect your cosmetics from damage during travel. Look for a bag with compartments to keep your products secure and prevent spills. Mirabella's Pro Makeup Kit for Travel is perfect for traveling both by air or land due to its customizable dividers to ensure a secure fit of products and travel LED mirror that makes on the go application easy!
2. Makeup Setting Spray is Your BFF - Always!
Don't leave the house without makeup setting spray - the best makeup for vacation. Summer vacays to hot & humid locales are all the rage until you try to get ready for a nice dinner & your makeup is smudging/smearing the second you walk out the door. A good makeup setting spray is a game changer on trips like this, especially in a travel-size that is TSA-approved. Before venturing out into hot, humid temps, mist the makeup setting spray over the face to set and secure both liquid and powder cosmetics to minimize melting, caking of fading during wear!
3. Multi-Use Makeup Products are the MVP's!
Opt for multi-use makeup products and pack your cosmetics in a carry-on bag when traveling via airplane. Travel to hot & humid places can be the perfect time to highlight your new tan and natural radiance. For this reason, one of the best makeup for vacation products is a multi-use highlight and contour palette can become a one-stop shop for bronzer, highlighter, contour, and even eyeshadow. Choosing a single palette makes it even easier to fit your makeup bag into a carryon luggage... which leads me to the latter part of this tip: pack cosmetics in a carryon.
When traveling via plane to hot, humid trips, I always advise packing cosmetics in a carryon to ensure makeup remains in temperature-controlled areas to avoid excessive melting or overheating of makeup! Checked bags are often left outside for extended periods of time and roughly handled in transit during travel which can lead to the discovery of melted or broken makeup upon arrival to your hotel or airbnb.
6. Waterproof Mascara is the Best Makeup for Vacation!
Waterproof mascara - always! Whether you plan on swimming or being near water during a hot, humid trip or just being outside for extended periods of time, waterproof mascara is another MVP makeup must-have to prevent running or smearing eye makeup through the day. Mirabella's Lasting Lash Mascara is a perfect option & a the best makeup for vacation!
