Summer is the time for the release of mini versions of the most popular travel cosmetics. They take up little space in your suitcase and run out just by the end of your vacation. The heading editor Natalia Udonova has selected 20 products that will help you organize a real spa treatment for yourself anywhere in the world.
Rule # 1: protect lips and eyelids
Why do lips and eyelids need special care? The cream applied to the lips in the morning does not save them from dryness during the day. And lip gloss only enhances the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation. There is only one way out: hygienic lipsticks. They moisturize, add shine, brighten the lip color a little and, of course, protect from the sun.
As for the eyelids, the skin is thin and regular sunscreens can cause puffiness. If you protect your eyes only with glasses, they will quickly become covered with wrinkles. But this is not a reason to give up on your youth, because there are a lot of sunscreens with a light texture, created specifically for the eyelids.

After the plane, the skin will be dehydrated. Therefore, moisturizers are simply necessary for her. One secret: during rest, the skin relaxes and begins to perceive useful substances several times faster. And best of all they are delivered by serums. Their molecules instantly penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and act in a targeted manner, for example, to help improve skin color.
Rule # 3: eliminate shine
Cooling Essence for tightening pores, Shiseido; Matting agent Pore Minimizer T-Zone Shine Control, Clinique
Skin shine and enlarged pores – these little things become a real problem on the beach. thermal water does not save, the powder will only clog the pores, but the gel for the T-zone, applied before leaving the house, will help prevent the appearance of shine. Use it as a base for sunscreen.
Rule # 4: moisturize your skin
Olay Complete Day Cream; Clarins Moisturizer
The skin quickly loses its moisture reserves, but the matter may be not only in an incorrectly selected care system, age-related changes, poor ecology, and stress are affecting. But, most importantly, the situation can be corrected! Products that restore water balance will help moisturize the skin. They contain substances that can attract and retain water in the skin.
A good way to moisturize your skin is through biorevitalization. Hyaluronic acid injections attract water molecules into the cells, and ultimately the skin is smoothed and takes on a beautiful, even tint.
Moisturizing mask, Clarins
Make nourishing masks once or twice a week in winter. But in the summer, and even on vacation, the skin can be pampered every day. After all, the environment is deteriorating, age is increasing, and you want to stay young as long as possible. Therefore, modern masks are created specifically for frequent use. They are usually able to quickly moisturize, smooth out wrinkles and make the skin firmer.
Rule number 6: strengthen the skin of the eyelids
Eye contour cream gel, Clinique; Oxygen eye cream Skin Therapy Anti-Aging Oxygen Eye Care, Lancaster
There comes a moment and wrinkles appear around the eyes. They are formed due to active facial expressions, due to age, with the abuse of the sun and, of course, from smoking. But, so far, these are only thin threads of mimic wrinkles, which cosmetics are able to cope with. Eye creams and gels will help relieve signs of fatigue and protect against aggressive environmental influences.
Rule # 7: protect sensitive skin areas
Sun Stick SPF 35, Clinique; Sun pencil SPF 30, Clarins
Skin, especially thin and light skin, requires special care. Especially while tanning. Sticks are ideal. They have a denser texture and are able to protect the most sensitive areas of the skin (forehead, nose, ears) from burns, photoaging and pigmentation. They are necessary if the skin has not yet sunburned, as well as when the sun is active. A pleasant addition: the sticks also moisturize the skin, and natural oils nourish it, restore and even neutralize free radicals.
Rule # 8: wash your head right
UV protection shampoo, Paul Mitchell; Cleansing nectar for hair and body, Davines
Even a small bottle of shampoo will last for a long time if used rationally. Apply the product first to your hands and lather well. So the consumption will be less, and more benefit, because the shampoo becomes active, turning into foam after contact with water. The main thing is to choose a shampoo for your hair type.
Rule # 9: remove inflammation
3-Step System for Problem Skin Care in Mini Format (Foam, Exfoliating Lotion, Moisturizer), Clinique
The cause of acne is the overactive work of the sebaceous glands, which produce fat. Under normal conditions, skin cells are regularly exfoliated and oil is released to the surface of the skin. But if the conditions are violated (for example, a cream that clogs the pores is chosen), inflammation occurs. To solve which, first of all, proper skin cleansing will help.
Rule # 10: Strengthen Hair
Wella Professionals Nourishing Serum; Hair Strengthening Serum, Shiseido
Ultraviolet light disrupts the structure of the hair, depriving them of proteins, lipids and other components. Natural and colored hair will fade and become dull. Therefore, on vacation, you need to apply a maximum of funds to the curls: special shampoos, balms and hair serums. And before the trip, you can do lamination. A special composition with a laminate envelops each hair with a thin transparent film and protects from high temperatures. After the procedure, the hair regains shine and volume. The effect lasts for about a month.
