If like me you’re counting down the days till your much needed trip this upcoming holiday season, you’ll likely have started packing your bags! When it comes to beauty, we’ve got you covered. Instead of packing everything and the kitchen sink, opt for just 4 beauty essentials. Whether you’re lounging on a tropical beach or exploring a bustling city, these travel-friendly must-haves will keep your skin protected and you looking fresh, flawless and photo ready day after day!
As you jet off to sun-drenched destinations (whether it be hot or cold!), protecting your skin from harmful UV rays is paramount. Make sure to pack a high-quality sunscreen with broad-spectrum protection. Look for a formula that suits your skin type and offers an SPF of 30 or higher, and don't forget to apply it generously and frequently to protect your skin (we’re not just talking sunburn but premature ageing too!
Try: ELES Age-Defying BB Cream 30.
Holidays are a great time to refine your makeup regimen to the bare essentials, but just slathering your skin in sunscreen might well not suffice! However a full face of foundation isn’t something any of us would want when we are spending days on the beach, relaxing by the pool or simply hanging out at home on staycation for that matter either! Cue a multi-tasking BB Cream! We LOVE ELES’s best-selling Age Defying BB Cream 30. Not only does it contain high factor SPF, but this tinted cream melts into the skin to cover blemishes for a unified dewy, and visibly radiant complexion too! What’s more, it has the added skincare benefits of hyaluronic, vitamin e, squalane and a multi-mineral complex too! Plus, it feels like you aren’t wearing makeup either! Amazing stuff.
The even better news is when you buy the ELES Age-Defying BB Cream 30 in June 2023, you’ll receive a FREE ELES Sheet Mask! Perfect for travel, sheet masks are a great way to provide your skin with a big boost of hydration, nourishment and other skincare benefits and they are so quick and easy to use (unlike most cream masks)
Choose from a calming and soothing sheet mask, a hydrating and brightening sheet mask or if you are worried about ageing try our youth recovery sheet mask.

Keeping your skin clean and fresh is essential, even when you're on the move. Invest in a travel-sized cleanser that fits snugly into your toiletry bag. Choose a gentle cleanser that suits your skin type, whether it's a cream, gel, or foam formula. Cleansing your face daily will remove impurities, excess oil, and makeup, leaving your skin feeling rejuvenated and ready for the day's adventures!
Try: Pevonia Clean Refresh Foaming Oil Cleanser.
Suitable for all skin types (but especially recommended for that dry, parched skin travelling can leave us with) this cleanser is an oil cleanser, that feels like gel and when mixed with water transforms into a beautiful foaming lather that in turn delivers a truly luxurious cleansing experience! It’s lipid rich, alcohol-free and soap free. What more could you want! Nourishing and cleansing in one.
Traveling can take a toll on your skin, causing dryness and dullness. To combat this, opt for a moisturiser that will both hydrate and brighten your skin. Choose a lightweight formula, and look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid or ceramides and vitamin c to replenish moisture and keep your skin looking visibly radiant too.
Try: Phytomer Hydra Continue Radiance Energizing Cream.
It’s a beautifully nourishing but lightweight cream with a velvety finish. The products name definitely reflects the results, as this subtly scented moisturiser is both energising and radiance inducing that’s for sure!
Less is More When it comes to makeup while traveling. Remember simplicity is key. Pack versatile products that can create various looks with minimal effort. Opt for a compact eye and face palette with neutral shades to effortlessly transition from day to night.
Try: ELES Cosmetics Custom Palette
Just as the name suggests this palette is fully customised which means you get to call the shots by selecting whichever product shades you want to insert, from a great selection outlined online. You need to pick a powder foundation, a blush and two eye shadows, all the products I live in (aside from my faithful mascara of course), and they come presented in a very sleek compact, perfect for on the go! What’s more the soft, powder formulas deliver rich, velvety, blendable colour that lasts all day and is good for your skin!
Whether you’ll be exploring your own city on a staycation, have a long-haul flight ahead of you, or intend to spend days by the beach, a facial mist will be your best friend. They are the perfect product (and travel companion!) to give your complexion a quick boost, replenishing tired, dry or tight skin within seconds, any time of day!
Try: Pevonia Hyaluronic Acid HydraMist
As well as Hyaluronic Acid, it’s formulated with a blend of ultra-calming Chamomile, Aloe, Green Tea and aromatic essential oils, making this powerhouse product ideal for all skin types, especially dehydrated, irritated, and ageing skin! However should your skin be on the sensitive side, a little itchy or irritated even, it will work its magic to calm, nurture and alleviate too.
Bon voyage!
