44 July 2014 www.womanthismonth.com BEAUTY | 5 tips These five beauty items are essential for both a weekend getaway and long haul trip. Jet-setters, here’s your holiday beauty checklist! Make-up Must-Haves All in One Unlike celebrities, we can’t carry our complete beauty cabinet with us while travelling. So we need to be wise with our choices. BB creams are perhaps the best option for trips. The multi-tasking product combines UVA/UVB protection, moisturising elements and concealing effects. To top it off, it’s tinted with a foundation finish, saving a lot of space in your beauty bag. Shadow Squad An eye shadow set works wonders. You can compose different make-up styles and use them as a blush or bronzer. Depending on the set, you can illuminate some areas of your face. You can make the most out of pinkish and natural shades in a pearl finish. Striking Eyes Mascara is a mandatory item. Opt for a waterproof version. Some brands offer this with a brush on one end and eyeliner on the other; this is a smart pick for those who can’t step out without a cat eye. Some products come with two mascara options: black and transparent. This helps maintain flawless brows. Splash of Colours A lipstick palette also serves several purposes. Aside from giving you options to tint your lips, it can be used as a blush or eye shadow. In short, if you’re looking to carry a compact beauty bag, make the best of the few products you can carry. Be creative! Keep it Clean Don’t forget to clean your face properly while away. Liquid make-up removers and cotton pads consume a lot of space; so cleansing wipes are a better option. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
