Heading out for a weekend adventure but dreading the idea of your skin missing out on its daily TLC? No need to worry! Whether you're off to explore the city or unwind in the countryside, your skin can still look its best. Let’s delve into how to pack your skincare set must-haves, ensuring your skin stays luminous and well-nourished throughout your travels.


Focus on the basics

When you’re planning a weekend away, simplicity is key. It’s best to pack only what you need to avoid weighing down your luggage with products that your skin will be okay without for a few days. Curate a simpler skincare routine and focus on the essentials: a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, SPF, and — if you have room — your favourite serum.


Our top recommendation? The best-selling Soy Face Cleanser. This multitasking marvel removes makeup, clears impurities, reduces redness, and hydrates while being TSA-friendly in a travel-sized 1.6 fl oz tube. Its pH-balancing formula, enriched with amino acid-rich soy proteins, calming cucumber extracts, and soothing aloe vera, ensures efficient and effective cleansing that your skin will thank you for.


Prep your skin ahead of time

If you’re worried about conserving packing space but not having your entire skincare routine during your weekend getaway leaves you feeling anxious, there’s no need to worry. There are ways you can work around this. Consider applying an overnight mask the night before you go, exfoliating on the morning of your journey, and completing any shaving or waxing tasks a few days prior. By prepping your skin in the days leading up to your trip, you not only minimize what you need to pack, but you can also ensure that you’ve completed all the significant parts of your skincare routine to enjoy their benefits during your travels without any hassle.


Go for travel-sized products

Travel-sized products are the secret to maintaining your skincare routine on the go. Fill your travel skincare kit with samples and travel-sized products, or decant your favourite essentials into smaller containers. This way, you can still enjoy your usual regimen without taking up too much packing space. Luckily, many of our best-selling products — including the Milk Body Cleanser and Milk Body Lotion — also come in travel sizes, so you can pack efficiently without compromising your skincare.

Our dedication to convenience doesn’t stop at skincare either. You can also bring your favourite fresh eau de parfum with you. Our iconic scents — including Hesperides Grapefruit, Sugar Lychee, Citron de Vigne, Sugar Lemon, Lily Jasmine, and Rose Morning — are all available in compact .30 fl oz tubes, perfect for staying beautifully scented wherever your travels take you.

Adapt your skincare to your getaway

Off to a snug cottage for a weekend of relaxation? Picture yourself curled up by the fire, indulging in a luxurious face mask. The Floral Recovery Calming Mask, with its soothing floral extracts, is perfect for giving your skin some extra TLC while you enjoy some comforting downtime.


If your plans include a lively city break with friends, filled with late nights and early mornings, your skin might need a little boost. The Rose Hydrating Eye Gel Cream is your secret weapon, offering hydration, brightness, and a cooling effect to keep you looking fresh and radiant for all your city adventures.


Wherever your weekend takes you, be sure to pack at least one skincare product that matches the activities and environment. This way, your skin will stay nourished and glowing, adding a special touch to your getaway.


Stay hydrated

Travelling often disrupts your routine, which can lead to dehydration. Whether it's lack of sleep, a few extra drinks, or a change in climate, it’s all too easy to let your hydration levels slip, and your skin often shows the first signs of stress. Keeping yourself hydrated is essential, not only for your overall health but also for maintaining a radiant complexion.


A handy product to carry with you is the Rose Pore-Minimizing Hydration Mist. This face mist is perfect for instant hydration. It helps soothe and soften your skin while minimizing the appearance of pores. Enriched with damask rose extract and rosewater, it refreshes your skin and leaves you with a naturally dewy glow. A gentle spritz on your face and neck will keep your skin feeling fresh and revitalized, with the calming scent of rose adding a touch of luxury to your routine.


A travel-friendly skincare routine with fresh

Experience the ultimate travel-friendly makeover with fresh skincare, body care, lip care, and fragrances. Our expertly crafted products cater to every skin type, concern, season, and environment, ensuring you always have the perfect solution on hand — no matter what you need. Inspired by the best of nature and enhanced by scientific innovation, fresh offers a diverse range of products, from everyday essentials to luxurious treats for special occasions. With three convenient sizes available, you're ready for any adventure, whether it's a weekend getaway, daily use at home, or quick touch-ups on the go.
