Traveling is exciting, but it can also wreak havoc on your skin. Changing climates, dry airplane air, and an inconsistent routine can leave your skin feeling dull, dehydrated, and irritated. The key to maintaining a radiant complexion while on the go? Packing the right beauty travel essentials.
Whether you're heading to a tropical getaway, a business trip, or a weekend escape, having a well-curated travel skincare routine ensures your skin stays fresh, hydrated, and protected. Here’s our ultimate guide to packing your skincare travel essentials.
1. Keep It Simple: The Golden Rule of Travel Skincare
When it comes to skincare on the go, less is more. You don’t need to pack your entire bathroom cabinet––just focus on the beauty travel essentials that keep your skin healthy and balanced. Stick to multi-tasking products to save space while still giving your skin everything it needs.
Instead of bringing separate cleansers and exfoliators, opt for a 2-in-1 formula like our Lea Black Beauty® Moisturizing Skin Renewal Exfoliant. Swap bulky serums for lightweight, travel-friendly options that pack a punch. The goal is to streamline your routine without compromising on quality.
- Pro Tip: Invest in travel-sized containers or pre-portioned products so you don’t have to check an extra bag just for your skincare!
2. The Non-Negotiable Travel Skincare Essentials
No matter where you’re headed, these beauty travel essentials belong in your travel bag:
Hydrating Cleanser
Travel exposes your skin to dirt, oil, and pollution, so a good cleanser is a must. Choose a formula that removes impurities without stripping moisture, especially if you’re flying or spending time in a dry climate.
Try: Lea Black Beauty® Skin Revitalizing Daily Face Wash – This gentle yet effective cleanser removes dirt and excess oil while keeping skin hydrated and refreshed.
Exfoliator for a Fresh Glow
Frequent travel can lead to dullness and congestion, especially after long flights or a change in climate. A mild exfoliant keeps your skin smooth, bright, and free of buildup.
Try: Lea Black Beauty® Moisturizing Skin Renewal Exfoliant – A 2-in-1 cleanser and exfoliator that clears pores and brightens skin without irritation.
Hydrating Moisturizer
Airplane cabins, hotel air conditioning, and climate changes can deplete moisture from your skin. A hydrating face moisturizer is a beauty travel essential to keep skin plump and healthy.
Try: Lea Black Beauty® CBD Daily Face Moisturizer – Lightweight yet deeply nourishing, this CBD-infused moisturizer soothes, hydrates, and protects skin from travel-related stressors.
Soothing Eye Cream
Traveling often leads to tired, puffy eyes, especially after long-haul flights or sleepless nights. An eye cream is a beauty travel essential that helps reduce dark circles and puffiness, making you look more awake and refreshed.
Try: Lea Black Beauty® Premium Hemp Soothing Eye Cream – This CBD-infused eye cream is a skincare travel essential to hydrate, firm, and brighten the under-eye area while reducing puffiness.
Multi-Purpose Facial Oil
A facial oil is perfect for locking in moisture while also serving as a versatile product that can be used on dry patches, cuticles, or even to smooth frizz in your hair.
Try: Lea Black Beauty® Sudden Youth® 1000mg Nourishing Cannabis Sativa Oil – A powerful blend of CBD and botanical extracts that deeply nourishes, soothes, and restores your skin.
3. Don’t Forget Your Body & Lips!
While we often focus on facial skincare, travel can also dry out your body and lips, making them feel rough and irritated. Keep them soft and hydrated with the right beauty travel essentials.
Lip Balm for On-the-Go Hydration
The combination of airplane air, heat, and wind can lead to chapped lips. High-quality lip balms are skincare travel essentials to keep your lips soft and moisturized. Infused with CBD and nourishing oils, our Lea Black Beauty® CBD Lip Balm Treatment provides long-lasting moisture and protection.
Body Lotion to Keep Skin Supple
Your skin can feel tight and dry after traveling, so a good body lotion helps restore hydration and smoothness. Try the Lea Black Beauty® Natural Youth® 200mg CBD Hand & Body Lotion––a lightweight yet ultra-hydrating formula that soothes dry skin and locks in moisture.
4. Packing Tips: How to Stay Organized
Now that you know what beauty travel essentials to pack, let’s talk about how to pack them efficiently.
- Choose Which Products to Pack – When deciding which items to bring along, it's essential to consider a key factor. If you're traveling internationally, be sure to check with your travel agent or conduct online research to confirm whether CBD skincare products are permitted at your destination. Since CBD products are not legal in all countries, it's crucial to exercise caution when traveling outside the USA.
- Use Travel-Sized Containers – We recommend transferring your Lea Black Beauty® products into travel-sized TSA-approved containers to save space. This is also a good idea if you only plan to bring a carry-on.
- Pack Your Essentials in a Clear Pouch – A waterproof travel bag keeps everything organized and easy to access.
- Double Up on Multi-Use Products – Choose items that serve multiple functions, like a face oil that also works as a hair serum.
- Keep Skincare Accessible – If you’re flying, place essentials like lip balm and facial mist in your carry-on to stay refreshed mid-flight.
