Hi guys! Who doesn't love to go on vacation?...I mean really!! We love everything about traveling from excitement of going somewhere to the random adventures we experience along the way! It doesn't matter if we have been there before or going somewhere new we always have a great adventure!
We will both be going on vacation soon...we are in need of a long overdue break from reality....so we are heading out! Kate will be heading up to the beautiful north shore of Minnesota and I will be heading to Texas to visit family!
We wanted to share with you our Top 5 vacation must haves! No matter where we go, we always have these things with us!
1. Dry Shampoo ~
Kate and I are both blondies who color our hair, so it is absolutely essential that we don't wash it every day or it will dry out....nobody wants the dry brittle hair look! One of our absolute favorites is Detox Dry Shampoo from Dry Bar. We have both tried a lot of dry shampoos; and we have found that this one absorbs the oils so much better than some other ones that we have tried. It is light weight, residue free, and bonus...it smells amazing!
2. The Perfect Lip Gloss ~
We all have our favorite lip products, don't we? We all know the headaches of taking on liquids and keeping your suitcase or carry on under the weight limits when traveling by airplane!!! So generally I only bring one or two of my favorites. When I travel to somewhere warm I love to bring along a lip gloss that is neutral with a little sparkle. It is perfect for a day out in the sun and yet it has the right amount of glamour for an evening out on the town. One of my favorites is this one from NARS - color supervixen.
3. Sea Salt Spray ~
If you are wanting that salt infused "just got off the beach" look.....this is a must have! Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray gives your hair that added volume and texture...leaving you with that sexy, beachy, windswept look! Perfect for an afternoon by the pool followed by some shopping downtown (which will be my plans for more than one day of vacation!).
4. Sunless Tanning Lotion ~
We admit it, we love the sun too and the natural glow of a suntan, but as we get older we realize that it is truly not worth the risk! Sunless tanners and sunscreens are our new favorite must have items! If you are using a sunless tanner often but want enhance your already healthy glow for an evening out or if you are not quite ready to commit to a self tanner. Try this 24 hour sunless tanning lotion by St. Tropez, it water resistant, streak free and washes off! It is amazing stuff!! We highly recommend using an applicator mitt to apply. It goes on so much easier, you don't get it all over your hands, and gives it a streak free finish.
5. A Multifunctional Purse ~
Vacations can be so busy, you are constantly going from one place to the next with out always going back to your hotel. Sometimes you are not able to carry along your big tote or just don't want to lug it around everywhere you go. That is why we love this Merikh multibag! It is the perfect size to have along, because it is big enough to carry all the essentials...money, phone, lip gloss....yet small enough to clip on to your beach tote or belt loop. It is stylish and chic, and we love it!
We are always trying new things and we would love to hear what your top vacation essentials are, share in the comments! Happy Vacationing!!
