‘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 travel nails: Chanel nail polish / Dior top coat /

Holiday travel is fast approaching, this means our nails need to be ready for anything! Of course, they also need to be festive. After all, the holiday season also includes events and parties! Love that!

One of my pet peeves while traveling is chipping my nail polish. Who has time to re-do an entire manicure while traveling? Not me! Therefore, it is imperative that a travel manicure be low maintenance yet fabulous. So, this 2024 holiday season, I have put together the perfect holiday travel nail look which if it chips, won’t be obvious. It will also be festive and fabulous. Love!

This summer, Chanel introduced an iridescent nail polish, and for the fall season, Dior did the same. Iridescent polish is hot, not just for this past summer season and this current fall season, but also as we move into the holiday season. It is chic with a twist!

The fun thing about iridescent polish is that it can easily be worn daily without showing scratches or chips since it is slightly sheer, thus enabling the polish to be close to our natural nail hue, even after two coats. This alone, makes it a great color for travel. But, for the holiday travel season, let’s add a little somethin’ somethin’!

For the holiday 2024 season, Dior has given us a golden, sparkling top coat which can be worn over any nail polish color you desire. When it comes to travel, I have found it looks out-of-this-world on top of an iridescent nail polish. Seriously, the photo I took does not do it justice. It’s a really cool look. I am in love!

So, there you have it! A fun and fabulous holiday manicure you can do at home and wear care-free throughout the holiday travel season. Love!

Stay tuned for more holiday season coverage!

Summer travel beauty bag

The summer season is upon us, this means travel plans are underway! One of the big things to keep stocked and ready to go is a tsa approved beauty bag. You don’t want to be caught needing beauty products in travel sizes the day you are packing for a big trip!

I keep my travel beauty bag ready for air travel at all times. As soon as something runs out, I replace it so my beauty bag is ready for my next plane trip. If you are traveling by car you may not need tsa approved travel bottles, but the plus side is that they take up less space in your luggage! Love that!

This beauty bag is the perfect size for storing all of your tsa approved, under 3.4 oz bottles. You can see my full review here. It has a place for brushes, and a few handy pockets which can keep your little travel bottles organized.

I don’t travel with liquid perfume, so scented body cream is my travel fragrance. It also doubles as a way to wear fragrance as well as moisturize your skin after a drying plane ride, and over-airconditioned hotel room. Scented body cream is a must-have in my book! This tsa approved bottle is perfect for a vacation.

Skin care is important while traveling since the change in climate from your hometown can wreak havoc on your skin. I love ReVive skin care products since they always keep my skin even and in check. I highly recommend their travel kit pictured above!

Also, don’t forget to throw a good, old-fashioned Chapstick in your beauty bag. You will be thankful you have it on your trip; especially if you travel by plane!

Thanks for stopping by, and enjoy your vacation!
