HOLIDAY: DON’T LEAVE HOME WITHOUT THEM

When we talk about vacations, one
of the dilemmas in girls is packing your luggage. Am I right?
Since I am a frequent traveller and sometimes in backpacking, I would
like to share some of the tips that I usually used during packing my
‘to-bring-items’. I can suggest travel
essentials that will make your holiday a glowing one!
The very first tip is lip balm,
hand cream and non-aerosol mist. The
humidity level in airplane is lesser than we Malaysian are used to all year
round. This draws out moisture, causing
tightness on skin. Keep these items in
your handbag for immediate relief from dryness.
When visiting holiday
destinations where the sun shines down unmercifully upon you, do take
precautions to protect yourself from harsh UV rays. The hot weather also opens up pores, so skin
is more prone to oiliness and shine.
Choose lightweight products that are water-based or gel-based which
won’t burden your skin. It is the
sun-block moisturizer.
Just in case with emergency items
like soothing gel, anti-allergy cream and hand sanitizer. You just never know when your skin decides to
act up and truth to be bold, it always does especially when you’re on holiday! Sensitive skin is caused by
inflammation. Curb inflammation at its
core with soothing ingredients and supplements like natural oil.
But if it is a cool country, the
climate is generally drier, which means you’re more susceptible to static-laden
hair and winter-itch, where the skin is so dehydrated and starts to itch. Richer, oil-based products do the trick to
prevent skin from drying out.
What about hair and
dandruff? Dandruff is a recurring
problem in humid weather. Bring along a
pack of anti-dandruff shampoo if you are travelling to this type country. Short massage during refreshing will do. Follow these simple steps. Using circular motions, massage your scalps
as if pushing the base of the skull up to the top of the head. Make small back and forth vibrating motions,
from the forehead to the top of the head.
With both hands flat, press down on scalp and slide hands down from
forehead to the nape. Repeat if
necessary. Later, you will feel better
to continue your vacations.
What are we lacking off? Deodorant or anti perspiration product. Don’t forget.
It is very important in travelling.
Apart from that, please do not leave home without a perfume, at least
the notes that you like most. Don’t you
think that I missed out facial cleanser?
My tip is simple. Go for multi-purpose cleanser that can be used for
both face and body. Make sure it is
gentle enough for your facial skin and good enough to cleanse the dirt from
both face and body.
I hope that you can consider my
tips for your next vacations.
