Are you traveling and worried about maintaining your skincare routine? Here are the best Korean skincare travel essentials you can pack in your carry-on luggage, for healthy and radiant skin even while on the move.
We are all traveling now – whether it’s for work or a much needed break from work. But, as we are out and about, with our suitcases packed, it’s easy to miss the long and elaborate Korean skincare routine, leaving the skin stressed or in need for TLC. To avoid that, it’s best to carry some skincare essentials while traveling. And we know with all the liquid restrictions on flight, carrying your skincare products can be difficult. Well, if you are facing this issue, this post will surely help you out in finding all that you can pack while traveling.
Best Skincare To Pack For Travels
If you are of a ‘travel-light’ mindset type person, you’re gonna love these travel hacks to packing your skincare bag!
Pimple Patches
Flying everywhere and anywhere can cause breakouts. And if you are on a holiday, you don’t want to spoil the gorgeous pictures for the ‘gram with patchy red skin! No matter whether it is because of flight, travel, or even work, Korean pimple patches have got you covered.
These tiny stickers are made from hydrocolloid and once stuck to the pimple, they suck out the gunk and keep the pimple away from more dirt and scratchy fingers. If you are a selfie queen, you can even opt for invisible-type, transparent patches which hide the zit without any trace.
Face Mists
Trapped in an enclosed flying tin with AC running all the time is hell on skin. The AC air dries out the skin, leaving it itchy and rough. And that’s when you need a healthy dose of quick moisture – enter Korean face mists.
These amazing Korean products are perfect for delivering hydration on-the-go, and are useful for any type of climate – be it sweltering heat or freezing cold.
Cleansers
If you want your skin to glow and remain healthy, cleansers are your best friend while traveling. Whether it is an oil-based cleanser or a powder cleanser – you need something in your routine.
For example, if you are vacationing at a beach, an oil-based cleanser can get rid off all the sticky sunscreen at the end of the day. Water-based cleansers aren’t very effective, but a cleansing balm does well in removing all kinds of makeup, dirt, and sunscreen.
Powder cleansers are basically granulated cleansers which when mixed with water turn into foam cleansers upon lathering. Unlike other skincare products from Korea, there is no restriction on carrying them with you on flight as there is no liquid. With long shelf-life and no risk of spilling in your bag, these are certainly the best Korean skincare travel essentials.
Toners
Another essential step in your skincare routine, even if you have no time! There are multifunctional toners that you can use which work as toner, essence, and serum in one single product.
Moisturizers
Whether you are going to the beach or have oily skin, a moisturizer is a must.
For humid destinations, you can go for a lighter cream or gel-based moisturizer, while a colder temperature would warrant a more greasy moisturizer.
SPF
Sunscreen is a must-have! Don’t forget to lather it on every morning and reapply throughout the day. Your skin will thank you later.
Optional – Serum, Essence
Well, there is something that isn’t a must-have in your scaled down skincare routine. If you don’t need the power packed liquids regularly, you can probably part with them for a few days. But, if you have super dry skin, and serums or essences help, it’s best not to leave them behind. These are usually tiny bottles and can fit in your nag without taking much space.
