Kicking off my Valentine or Shmalentine week I thought I'd begin with a little beauty bag - travel style whether it be jetting off on a surprise weekend away with your loved one or hitting a big city with the girls for a great night out.
Even though travelling light is always best I still like to keep some essential products in my routine whilst I'm away and how cuter could they come than in all this miniature packaging!
I'm a huge lover of the Liz Earle products, Cleanse and Polish being a huge fave of mine so how perfect for a trip away than these Liz Earle face cleanser and toner minis! There is a great range of travel goodies from lovely Liz over on her website so if you are off on a lil get away whoever it is with, these are so cute and suitcase friendly.
Now who can't live without their trust Bioderma...guilty! And I sure as hell cannot resist this tiny baby bio I got in a Birch Box not too long ago. It is the perfect size for that short mini break but if you are going for longer and weren't lucky enough to receive this teeny tiny bottle from a birch box you can get their smallest retail size of 100ml here for a lovely £4.50.
That last day of your weekend and you have a hangover from all those cocktails with your girlfriends or from that very yummy but very expensive French red vino with the Mr, so you need a bit of a pick me up before cracking on with the last day of your trip. How about a nice exfoliating facial scrub that smells of citrus and makes you feel like you've had a full 10 hours sleep. I recommend Dr. Brandt's Microdermabrasion but it is on the pricey side of things so Lush's Ocean Salt at a much nicer £13.50.
Next thing you will not have to remember to leave home with but you must remember to leave the hotel with is...drumroll...COMPLIMENTARY BATHROOM PRODUCTS! We all love a hotel shower gel to take home to make the weekend away last a lil longer so if you don't use them up while you're there, why not pack 'em up in your travel bag and take the memory home.
Now last but no means least...always remember your toothbrush and toothpaste. It is necessary to be prepared for all situations, that Valentines kiss with your boyfriend to end a lovely trip, that spontaneous smooch on the dance floor with the guy from the club with the really nice hair or for that amazing smile you'll have in your best friends photographs from the weekend.
I am doing my Valentine or Shmalentine series all week this week for those who are celebrating the hallmark holiday or for those who aren't so keep on checking in to see what's new :)
