Travel Palette

The lazy summer weekends of July are meant for mini getaways and trips to the cottage. Often these trips are impromptu or last minute summer deals, and the last thing you want to worry about is heavy packing. Save your energy for enjoying your destination and make the packing light and stress-free with a single simple colour palette for your clothing as well as your makeup.

We often don't think twice about travel makeup and many people tend to tote around their regular arsenal of products. Why not lessen the load with a travel set such as the Laura Mercier 'Signature Color Essentials' Travel Set. This travel set does all the work for you by putting together all the necessary makeup essentials in a simple and neutral palette, perfect for a weekend at the cottage or beach. This particular set includes a cheek and eye palette that can take you from day to night, a travel size foundation primer, an eyeshadow brush for application, a Twilight Caviar Stick Eye Color that can be used to add a bit of smoky drama for night time or to line the eyes, a full volume mascara, and a soft pink shimmery lip gloss.
