I love to travel! I travel for pageant coaching, photo and video shoots, girls trips, family vacations … anything really! Any excuse to see something new or go somewhere I have never been, I’m on it! In the last month I have been in 3 different time zones, 6 cities, and have taken more than 8 flights. Needless to say, I have a gypsy soul, but being on the road can be hard on your skin and on your diet. So here are my 3 travel essentials I won’t leave home without :
1) Quest Bars. When I’m on the road, healthy meals are not always readily available, but with a quest bar, I can make it until I find one. It’s a cashew based, gluten free bar that has a ton of fiber (17 grams) that will fill you up and consist of 170 calories, 1 sugar and 20 grams of protein per serving. Did I mention they taste GREAT too? It’s pretty much the perfect snack or meal replacement in a pinch.
2) Planet Beach MIST facial spray. If you have ever read any of my beauty blogs you know I’m obsessed with the appearance of healthy looking skin. There is nothing worse than getting off a 5 hour flight and looking like you just got off a 5 hour flight! lol When I travel it’s just what my thirsty skin needs to look and feel refreshed. Plus, it comes in a 2oz spray so it is TSA carry on approved!
3) Micro-Dermabrasion Cream. Traveling, especially in the winter, is usually associated with environment change, which can damage your skin. Going from the cold dry air of Charlotte NC to the warm tropical climate of South FL (or vice versa) can shock your skin, leaving it dry and scalely. Thus when I get to where I’m going I like to shed away all those dead cells to jump start the healing process and improve and adapt the texture of my skin.
So weather you find yourself at a 3 day work meeting in Dallas, Texas or living in Mumbai India for 3 months (yes that has happened to me - Haha) think manage, renew, improve. Manage your weight, renew your skin and improves the look and feel of your appearance. When you take care of your body it will take care of you!
