How To Pack Skincare for a Weekend Away
4 min read
Curate a skincare essentials for your weekend adventures.
Planning a little getaway but dreading the thought of leaving your skincare lineup behind? Whether you're jetting off for a break from the city or escaping to the countryside for some much-needed R&R, your skin doesn't have to suffer from the travel blues. Get ready to pack like a pro as we spill the secrets to keep your skin glowing, no matter where your adventures take you.
If you're looking to save on space when packing, rest assured that your skin will be fine for a few days without your elaborate 10-step skincare routine. Free up your luggage and your time by keeping things simple. To build your own travel skincare set, all you really need is a cleanser, moisturizer, SPF, and if you have additional space, your favorite serum.
Our top recommendation is the best-selling Soy Face Cleanser, a gentle, non-stripping face wash that does it all: removes makeup, clears impurities, reduces visible redness, softens, and hydrates. This pH-balancing formula, enriched with amino acid-rich soy proteins, calming cucumber extracts, and soothing aloe vera, is an efficient and effective cleansing step your skin will thank you for. Plus, the 1.6 fl oz tube is TSA-friendly!
If you're feeling anxious about being separated from your trusted favorites over a long weekend, make sure to prep your skin in the days leading up to your trip. This may mean doing an overnight mask the night before leaving, exfoliating the morning of, and shaving or waxing in advance. That way, you only take the products you require daily and leave your weekly indulgences at home, having already used them in time to enjoy all their benefits while you travel.
Travel-sized products: the holy grail of gorgeous skin, wherever you are. Skincare samples, travel-sized packaging, and decanting your must-haves into smaller tubes allow you to indulge in your skincare as usual without sacrificing space. Lucky for you, most of our skincare products — including everyone's favorite body care products — Milk Body Cleanser and Milk Body Lotion — come in three sizes: travel, full, and jumbo, allowing you to pick and choose the most efficient option for your needs.
Our thoughtfulness and innovation extend beyond skin and body care. You can now take your favorite fresh eau de parfum with you wherever you go, too. Our iconic collection — consisting of Hesperides Grapefruit, Sugar Lychee, Citron de Vigne, Sugar Lemon, Lily Jasmine, and Rose Morning — all come in a super-sleek .30 fl oz tube so that you remain subtly scented in every situation.
Tailor your getaway skincare routine to the environment. Perhaps you're going on a cozy cabin escape, spending your days reading by the fireplace. In this scenario, you may want to indulge in a luxurious face mask while sipping hot cocoa. Leave room in your bag for something to suit the occasion, like the Floral Recovery Calming Mask to calm your skin and senses with its selection of floral extracts.
Or maybe you're planning a weekend away with the girls, with city adventures and late nights on the agenda. The Rose Hydrating Eye Gel Cream will help hydrate, brighten, and cool the eye area so your eyes look refreshed and revived just in time for brunch.
Whatever your plans, dedicate space in your bag for at least one product to suit the occasion.
Lack of sleep, drinking, and change in climate can all contribute to dehydration, and your skin is one of the first places it shows. Of course, it's important to remain hydrated throughout your getaway, with the great added benefit of giving your skin some support.
Keep the Rose Pore-Minimizing Hydration Mist on hand to provide your skin with optimal hydration. This instantly hydrating face mist helps minimize the look of pores while soothing and softening the skin for a naturally dewy look. Formulated with damask rose extract and rosewater, this multi-purpose face mist instantly replenishes skin. Gently spritz on the face and neck and allow the scent of rose to softly wash over your skin.
