Travel Make-up!

Beautalicious, that`s fab advice, and I totally agree with it… pack light! One of the easier ways to pack is to pack all in black (plus maybe a pair of jeans), then take a few colorful accessories to jazz things up with. You can make a black skirt/shirt combo look casual by wearing a colorful scarf and ballet flats, or you can dress it up with a fancy necklace and up-do. Versatile, doesn`t show stains, and always classy!

I went to Europe for 2 months last year and I only took the bare essentials. When I travel I pack super light so I can fit lots of purchases and gifts. I dont take my best clothes as I don`t want anything to get ruined. I ended up dumping a lot of shoes and clothes and cosmetics so I didn`t have to pay excess from London to Barcelona.

  If your not 100% certain you would use the item best to leave it at home.
  Take heaps and heaps of photo memory sticks!!

I just got back from the gold coast, i took

-Concealer
-Liquid Foundation
-Waterproof eyeliner
-Mascara
-Some neutral eyeshadows
-Blush
-Lip balm
-Lipstick
-Pressed powder
-Powderbrush, angled liner brush, eyeshadow brushes

i realised the only things i used were the concealer, eyeliner, lip balm and lip stick because when youre at the beach nearly everyday, there isnt much point wearing the other stuff

also i learned, NEVER OPEN LIQUID FOUNDATION WHILE ON AN AEROPLANE especially if its in a tube like rimmel lasting finish, the pressurised cabin made the product all run out so the only thing i could do was put the lid on and wait till i got home to clean the mess

Lol this is true!

Your welcome darl, it is pretty hard to find something when you don`t know what the title of the thread is, lol.

Ohh thanks Elmo and melmeko! I only typed travel into the forum searcher and it didnt come up with anything =]

I take as much as i can. i also put all my skin care in lil containers that you can get from priceline adn for the big things like hairsrpay and that i buy overseas as u cant take them with you

I think there are a few links under Beauty Dilemma, this one Elmo found is probable one of them 🙂
I just checked as well and yes that is one and here is another that might help 🙂
