Smaller, weekend vacations are so much more exciting than what they are given the credit for. The tiny dose of excitement is sometimes a necessity. We all need some time off from our regular lives and enjoy the little moments of it. However, a smaller vacation also means tighter luggage. Instead of compromising on things you might need, it’s so much better to know beforehand what it is that you would actually need. In terms of skin care, you never know what you may need making it all the more expensive. Don’t worry, we have it all figured out for you!

NEUTROGENA HYDRA BOOST WATER GEL

During a vacation, moisturising is probably the most important thing for your skin care. The drier your skin gets, the harder it is for your make-up to look natural and flawless. This particular moisturiser is the best for oily as well as dry skin types. The formula is gel-based and hence, quick to absorb into your skin. It will not make your skin oily and will provide the right amount of moisture. It claims to absorb moisture from the surrounding air onto your skin making it perfect for dry skin types too.

ESTEE LAUDER ADVANCED NIGHT REPAIR SYNCHRONIZED RECOVERY COMPLEX II

Having a serum or a night repair cream is often overlooked while travelling. However, it is important to let your skin relax and repair itself while you snooze. During a vacation, you are probably going to be out and about exposing your skin to pollution, dirt and sweat. After the tiring day, a good serum like the Estee Lauder one, speeds up the healing process.

MCAFFEINE NAKED & RAW COFFEE FACE MASK

Keeping a face mask is just as important as the rest of the products in this list. A mask is something that you won’t need on a daily basis, but at least once throughout the trip. This coffee mask is perfect for sun damaged skin. Its ingredients have anti-inflammatory properties and reduce puffiness. The mask is to be applied as usual. While removing, exfoliation is recommended. The coffee exfoliates the skin efficiently, the argon oil moisturizes it and the Vitamin E leaves the skin soft and supple.

MILANI KEEP IT SWEET SUGAR LIP SCRUB

Like our skin, our lips also dry up and need all the extra care they can get. A scrub is the fastest way of removing, dry and dead skin cells. The Milani sugar scrub is a perfect fit if you haven’t ever used a lip scrub. It is gentle on the lips, smells sweet and has only good reviews from all of its users.

NEUTROGENA ULTRASHEER DRY TOUCH SUNBLOCK SPF 50+

This one is quite an obvious tip but most often neglected. While focusing on the make-up and clothes, it’s important that you don’t forget your sunblock. A sunblock like Neutrogena is perfect for all skin types. The sunscreen has 50+ SPF making it perfect for most of the Indian destinations. The formula is non-sticky and hydrating.
