I have products that I use all the time whether I'm home or I'm traveling. Then I have products I use when I am about to go on or have come back on a trip. These products generally also find there way on my trips as well. I think it's important to prep your body when you're traveling whether it's a vacation, press tours, etc. Then when you come back (based on the length of time of your trip) your body should be pampered as traveling is always an experience. Like many of my blogger associates, I find myself in the mix of press trips and tours where you travel for weeks at a time and in between make a pit stop home. When this season hits I find that you have to pamper yourself while you're away.

Above are a series of products that are available from of one of my fave websites Smallflower. By taking these items with me I feel that like I'm at home and yet being able to experience items that I normally don't when I am in my own bathroom. I love getting massages and many times I will bring my own with me so thankfully, I have started using Lavendar Body Oil by Kneipp! Although I love trying various soaps that are offered by the hotels I stay at, I also love (during the fall) Caswell-Massey's Black Currant Soap. It has such a rich smell and I love using it when I take a shower at night to make it easier to sleep. When I travel, I love to experience as much as I can and when it is a press trip it's late nights and early mornings. Thankfully, I started using Orange Blossom Energizer by Annemarie Borlind which is a great way to wake your face up and to make you look refreshed and not like you might have had one too many cocktails from the night before! Citrus is always a good thing to bring into your beauty routine. Finally, I'm a fan of Rosebud Perfume Company and I love changing it up from the classic Rosebud so when I travel, you'll see me carrying Mocha Rose! It's my last day in Cancun and in a few days I will be in the Dominican Republic but it's nice to know when I travel my vanity comes with me and it allows me to play with new items!
