What’s in my travel beauty bag winter 2025

‘Tis the season of travel! As you know, I prefer to carry-on my luggage when I travel; if possible. This means I always ensure my beauty products are TSA compliant. Beauty products for carry-on luggage need to be 3.4oz or less and fit into a one-quart bag. I’m not sure if my beauty bag is exactly one quart, but TSA seems fine with it, so I’m good!

Since it is difficult to travel with perfume, I prefer a scented body cream which is easy to travel with and provides a nice fragrance. This scented body cream is perfect for travel and offers a powdery gourmand scent which I love wearing. I have to credit my daughter for showing me this body cream! It’s fabulous!

I also travel with minimal makeup and prefer powder foundation over liquid while I am on vacation. It’s one less liquid to deal with!

So, without further ado, here is what’ inside my travel beauty bag for winter 2025 and the holiday 2024 season:

Thanks for stopping by, and safe travels!

Holiday manicure ideas 2024

Holiday manicure ideas: Dior holiday top coat / Chanel holiday nail polish / pictured below: Dior holiday nail polish / Chanel iridescent nail polish /

This holiday season Dior has made it so easy to create multiple, festive holiday manicures for the entire season. Thier sparkling gold top coat easily works with any nail polish color. My favorite so far is how it pairs with Chanel’s dark holiday nail polish. It’s perfect for parties throughout the holiday season and New Years. Love!

If you already have nail polish colors at home you want to wear during the holiday, the easiest way to update your manicure is by adding this top coat. You can enjoy your favorite color and turn it into a festive holiday look by simply adding this Dior top coat. Love that!

So, I don’t think I need to keep typing about how amazing this top coat is and how it can turn any nail polish into a holiday look. You can see for yourself! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Happy Holiday season and enjoy your sparkling, home manicure!

‘Tis the season, for fabulous nails! Yes! Loving the nail polish colors designers are giving us this year for the holiday season. It is so refreshing to not be given light pink and cherry red. I love holiday hues which are not traditional, yet still evoke a festive holiday vibe.

This holiday season, designers have been playing with pink, purple, and berry hues. Two of my three favorite nail polish brands are giving us holiday colors which do just that; play with berry, pink, and purple.

If you have something similar in your nail polish wardrobe, you can pull it back out and easily update your manicure with this sparkling top coat. I love how Dior gives us a festive holiday top coat each year. It can be applied to any nail polish hue and instantly turn it into a current season mani. Love!

So, if you are still in love with another color, from another season, or you have a berry, pink, or purple hue you in your nail polish wardrobe you prefer over the new colors, snap up this top coat and update your mani for the season! It is the easiest way to update your nail polish without breaking the bank. Love that!

Which nail polish color is your favorite for the holiday 2024 season?

Thanks for stopping by!
