Carrying the best travel makeup kit can make looking your best on the go a breeze, without weighing you down. Choose products that are versatile, that won’t melt or break or disintegrate in your bag, long lasting makeup and products that won’t take up a ton of space in your backpack.

If you’re a makeup lover, you recognize the struggles of reducing your collection to essentials to carry with you when traveling. We’ve compiled a list of travel makeup essentials for the best travel makeup kit that will fit in limited space without compromising your beauty glam look or skin care routine.

 Travel makeup kit essentials

Concealer

Concealers can be one of the most important products in the best travel make-up kit you can put together. It not only conceals blemishes but can also be used to create a base for eye shadow. It’s not necessary for everyone to carry a concealer, but it works wonders for covering up acne, dark spots or dark circles under your eyes. 

When it comes to the right concealer, you’ll want a long-lasting formula that you won’t have to touch up throughout your day’s adventure. Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer is a multipurpose concealer enriched with hydrating, multi-action skincare benefits that can be used for highlighting as well as contouring – and it is available in 30 shades to fit every skin tone.

Blush

Blush is the new bold. Cream blushes are travel friendly, as you can also use them as a lip color in a pinch. Applying blush directly to the apples of your cheeks will give a perfectly vibrant, fresh-faced look. Show more cheek with Nars ORGASM, a natural-looking rush of cheek color available in matte, satin and shimmering finishes. 

Mascara

Mascara transforms any makeup look. When traveling, be sure to choose a mascara that enhances your eyelashes and doesn’t smudge or flake. L’Oreal Voluminous Mascara is a classic black formula that adds both length and volume to your eyelashes. Also, consider your destination when choosing what to bring. If you’re heading to a hot or tropical climate, waterproof mascara will serve you better and keep you from looking like a raccoon by the end of the day.

Tinted lip balm

Tinted lip balms keep your lips moisturized and can be the cherry on top of your glam look. It is the foremost travel-friendly product, as you can keep it in your mini purse or pocket and reapply on-the-go. Maybelline Baby Lips adds a pop of cherry shade and moisturizes your lips and is also available in Peach Kiss, Pink Punch, Peppermint and Quenched shades.

A mini eye shadow palette

If you’re someone who regularly wears eye shadow, you might be tempted to carry your favorite large eye shadow palettes with you. The key is to get creative and opt for a mini eye shadow palette that has the shades to cover a variety of looks without taking up a ton of space in your backpack.   

The Maybelline New York The City Mini Eye shadow Palette is an amazing travel-friendly product available on Amazon. The darker brown shade can be used as a liner, and the lightest shade can be used as a face highlighter which means one less product to pack. Also, this palette comes in a sleek compact that won’t take up too much space.

Powder

A good face powder is an essential product to carry in your perfect travel makeup kit. L’Oreal Paris True Match Mineral Powder delivers natural but radiant and flawless coverage for up to 16 hours.

Makeup spray

Last but not least, makeup spray, like Milani Make It Last 3-in-1 Setting Spray and PRIME + CORRECT + SET  preps your face and reduces the appearance of imperfections. You can enjoy up to 16 hours without a crease or smudge in sight. Spray before or after makeup application, or wear it alone for a captivating natural finish.

Sunscreen

While this technically isn’t a makeup product, it’s crucial to carry good sunscreen with you when traveling. Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Lotion helps defend against the signs of sun aging, prevent sunburn and decrease the risk of skin cancer when used as directed.

The right bag

To fit your travel makeup and accessories, we’ve found a perfect travel-friendly makeup bag for you. The Relavel Travel Makeup Train Case has specially designed adjustable compartments where you can keep your makeup tools handy. This makeup bag has enough space to store all your makeup and cosmetic accessories and any other personal hygiene products you need on your trip.
