My dream is to travel the world! And soon I`m going to explore a little piece of Europe. So I decided to share with you some tips and tricks that will make your journey easier. They aren`t anything special but I believe that the little things are the keystone, and definitely will make your travel nicer:
First are clothes! But before to chosing them, first always check the weather of the place where you are going!
So clothes: There are difirent types of people and how they choose and match their clothes for traveling. But the most important thing here is to choose your outfits carefully. Just sit in front of the closet and think. Match your fav jeans not only with one top. Choose clothes that can be put in more than one outfit. Be smart and get one universal jacket for all of the outfits. Talking about shoes – be practical! choose a comfortable pair of shoes AND a matching bag. But of course it depends on where you are going. If you are going to the fashion week in Paris, being practical is not the goal!
If you are going to wear a blazer or a shirt there are some tricks too. Turn the blazer inside-out to keep it without wrinkles. For the shirt – Put a belt inside the collar to keep it in shape.
Also you can roll up your clothes instead of folding them. In that way you will prevent your clothes from wrinkles and you will have more room in your suitcase.
Talking about cosmetics traveling kits are perfect! They have diffrent types of containers so you can bring whatever you need and want. Also there are travel-sized toothpaste, shaving cream and etc.
There is a trick for these containers too. Put some clear foil before closing the bottle to prevent from exploding shampoo. (Sometimes after your flight when you open your shampoo it explodes due to the pressure change.)
And don`t forget this little tiny thing that prevents the pump bottle from unwanted pumping.
Girls may have more trouble with packing. There is one thing I do when I pack my make-up. Get 4-5 things that you can`t go without. I usually get some concealer, fondation, mascara and one cool brown shadow which I use for my eye crease and face contouring. My new DIY contour stick is perfect for that too! You can also do that with your favourite bronzer. For my lips and the highlight I use a light pink shimery lipgloss. Just put it on your cheeks and blend it out with your fingers. Or if you are a lipstick lover a good idea for you would to use a samples! And if you have a make-up setting spray never ever forget it!
Having a broken nail is definitely unwanted! So take care of your nails few days before traveling. Treat them with nail hardener to avoid broken nails. Same thing goes with your face and hair. Make your face and hair treatment before your journey so you can enjoy your holiday without any discomforts.
Make your own music playlist for the journey so you can have an according background! You know – like a soundtrack in a movie.
If you are a glasses person like me don`t forget your glasses wipes and contact lenses. You want to be able to see the beautiful landscapes, don`t you?
To be sure that you packed everything just make your very own packing list . Don`t forget your wet wipes and hand gel! Also hand and face cream are a must! Wherever you`re going, hydratation is important! Be sure that you have extra batteries and SD card so you can catch all your memories without any trouble. I made a cute little packaging list with already written some things which I believe are important and there are spaces you can write your own things. There is a square before every thing so you can check it. 🙂
