If you have been planning your next vacation for a while, and would like to go out at night to blow off the cobwebs and let your hair down, you need to make sure that you are looking your best every day. Whether you are visiting a party island, or a beach resort, you are likely to have to deal with the damage caused by sea water, wind, high humidity, and sun damage. Below you will find a list of things you must take with you on vacation next time, so you can look as well as you can every day and night.
1.Sun Protection
When spending a lot of time chatting with friends by the pool or on the beach, we don’t notice that we are getting tanned, and this can result in a disaster. To prevent sunburn and damage, you will have to take a high UV factor sun protection cream. Get one that lasts all day, as you are likely to be in and out of the water more than once during the day, especially when it is hot.
Top Picks:
2. Hydration Cream
The dry sand, the chlorine in the pool, and salty water can damage the outer layer of your skin, and you can experience irritation. To protect your skin and restore the water balance, you will need a good hydration cream. Get one for your face that has built in UV protection, and one you can apply as a body lotion every night when you return to your hotel room. Chances are that you will not get the same brand at your destination your body’s used to, so pack it in your suitcase, just in case.
3. Hair Styling Products
Hair has a tendency of getting messy when you swim and play all day. This doesn’t help when you are planning to go out to the local club at night. Get your styling mousse and gel packed, and make sure that you are taking your regular shampoo and conditioner. If you suddenly change products, your hair might suffer, and not perform its best. Check with your airline what your liquid and weight allowance is to avoid disappointment at the airport.
4.Travel Hair Iron
To restore order after a day on the beach, you will need to have a hair dryer, styling iron, or curlers. Check out the Hair Straightener Studio for good sized professional products that can help you get your hair back in shape faster while on holiday, so you can impress your current and your future friends at the bar or in the night club.
5.Hand Sanitizer
When you are on vacation, and are hitting the beach, or going on a tour, you might not always be close to a bathroom or a shower. To protect yourself from infections and bugs while vacationing, you can take a small tub of hand sanitizer that you can use while on the go. You don’t have to say no to street food when visiting a traditional fishing village in the region, or worry about what you picked up in the local store or on the beach.
6.Nail Varnish
When you are in the sunshine and jump in the water often, you should expect your nails to get ruined faster than at home. To avoid shame and high beauty salon bills on vacation, you might take your nail varnish with you in your travel bag, so you can correct the design. Take a nail polish set, and a clipper, filer, so you can prevent the disaster. If you would rather not spend time fixing your nails, you could get a nail sticker that will last for at least the week, and can be replaced without the hassle of applying and drying nail varnish.
7.Electric Lady Shaver
You can’t go on vacation without a shaver. Chances are that you will show your legs and arms more than at home, and you don’t want unwanted hair to draw people’s attention. The good news is that there are great compact rechargeable shavers that will allow you to look your best in shorts and mini skirts, even in your bikinis while on vacation.
Whether you are going to stay in a boutique hotel, or a popular beach resort, you need to get your beauty kit ready, so you can impress people you meet day and night. Create a list of items you regularly use, and add the things that you will need when out in the sunshine and in the water all day. Protect your skin and hair from sun damage and dehydration, and you can feel great in your own body during and after the holiday.
