One of the hardest parts of traveling—especially for nearly three weeks—is deciding what to bring. Clothes are one thing, but choosing which skincare products make the cut? That’s where it gets tricky. I’ve always been a light packer (if I can’t lift or carry my bag, something has to go!), but my skincare routine is one area I never like to compromise.
So, as I prepped for this Europe trip, I got strategic. I factored in the colder climate, what would pack well, and the little comforts that make a foreign country feel a bit more like home. After a lot of editing, here’s what officially earned a spot in my bag…and honestly, what I’d bring just about anywhere:
Saie: I’ve been exclusively wearing Saie makeup for years, largely because their products are versatile, reliable, and travel beautifully. No surprise here: the Saie Sunvisor came with me for both sun protection and as my everyday base, along with the Slip Tint Moisturizer, which offers just the right amount of coverage while still feeling light and breathable.
Doré: This French skincare brand (Doré translates to “golden”) has become a staple in both my morning and evening routines. With the weather cooling down, my skin has been craving extra moisture, so I packed La Crème, an all in one daily moisturizing cream, and I’ve been reaching for it every day. At night, I’ve been using their BioComplexe PX duo: the Peptide Bouclier Intégral followed by the Peptide Extreme Fermeté for a simple but effective two-step routine.
Uni: At this point, I can’t imagine traveling without my Uni essentials. Luckily, they recently sent me some of their travel-friendly sizes, so into my bag they went. The mini Skin Shield Body Wash and the new 3.4 oz version of the fan-favorite 24-Hour Body Serum have been keeping my skin hydrated on the go, and honestly, they make any bathroom feel instantly upgraded.
DWB: The Tri-Liptide Peptide Lip Enhancing Treatment from Dr. Whitney Bowe Beauty has become a non-negotiable for me. It takes up almost no space, and I love how rich the formula is without ever feeling sticky. Especially with the drop in temps, it’s been keeping my lips nourished, hydrated, and happy.
