Mascara

For many people, mascara is an important essential in their beauty routine, and we find no different here. Just the difference between you've-had-jetlag-for-a-week and I've-slept-for-twelve-hours-straight. On holiday you also want to steal the show with beautiful, full eyelashes. Fortunately, there are these days many brands of mascara in travel size, so hop in the toiletry bag.

Shampoo & conditioner

Many hotels and hostels offer shampoo and conditioner, but if you have a certain hair type, these hotel products may not suit you. Then it is better to bring your own shampoo and conditioner. In miniature form or pour them into a small (recycled) bottle. Especially when you go camping it is usually one black to bring your own hair products.

Shower Gel & Soap

Do you also love the smell of your favorite shower gel? Don't forget to put a handy mini version of this in your toiletry bag. This way you can be sure that you will smell good and go out with well-cared for skin. Or oldschool: a bar of soap. Also saves space in your plastic zip bag when you fly.

hairspray

Humid weather or strong wind: anything can happen along the way that suddenly causes you to... bad hair day have. Then you can throw it in a frankfurter bun, but a little hairspray also works wonders.

Bodylotion

UV radiation from the sun, salty seawater, chlorine in the swimming pool and the air conditioning in the car or plane: these are all conditions that can cause your skin to dry out. With a nice body lotion you can hydrate your skin and continue to shine throughout your holiday! Naïf, for example, has a very nice body lotion and in a nice size!

Banana powder

Sorry, what? Banana powder is a powder that you use when everything is done and as a finishing touch to set your makeup. For example, over your eye shadow, so that you don't get such a sweat line. Also helps with the foundation, which is great if you are in a warm country. You have different brands, but the Essence Banana Powder from Kruidvat costs nothing and works like a charm.

Toothbrush and toothpaste

The travel essentials that you should not forget are a toothbrush and toothpaste. How annoying when you arrive at your destination, you want to freshen up and you can't brush your teeth. The atmosphere is immediately set. Depending on where you sit, a store is not always nearby and we are never happy with those hotel toothpastes. Your own dental brush, a mini size, an electric one: just don't forget it.

If you are really stuck with your own brand of toothpaste, take that with you (in mini size), but you can also buy toothpaste tablets. Less plastic, no liquid: how convenient.
