Whether it’s the beautiful cityscapes of Paris, Shanghai, or New York, or the breathtaking gorgeous natural scenery of Taiwan, Switzerland, or Japan, all of us want to look our best in our holiday pictures.

Unfortunately, luggage space (and weight!) is a huge reason why we instead choose to forego some of our precious beauty routines while we’re on holiday.

This doesn’t have to be the case!

These beauty travel sets are the answers you’ve been looking for to keep your luggage lightweight and your skin beautiful and glowing in all those Instagram snapshots.

1. Crabtree & Evelyn Travel Sets

Travel Sized Beauty Kits Crabtree Evelyn Citron And Coriander

Crabtree & Evelyn Citron & Coriander travel set

Whatever your travel destination, there’s always a travel-sized set from Crabtree & Evelyn that’s just right for the vibe and the atmosphere.

Bask in sand, sun, and sea with the marine-inspired scent of the Crabtree & Evelyn La Source travel-sized range, which includes a body wash (SGD10, 50ml), body lotion (SGD10, 50ml), shampoo (SGD10, 50ml), and conditioner (SGD10, 50ml).

If clean, pristine air, open grassy spaces, and unsurpassable sights of nature is more your thing, then go for the Citron & Coriander range instead, sure to perk up your senses and blend in deliciously with the crisp air around you.

Besides a body wash (SGD10, 50ml), body lotion (SGD10, 50ml), the Citron & Coriander set also includes the 60-Second Fix for Hands (SGD23), consisting of the Hand Recovery (25ml) and Hand Therapy (25g).

Crabtree & Evelyn travel-sized sets will be available in all Crabtree & Evelyn stores from 29 June 2018.

2. Scent by SIX

Travel Sized Beauty Kits Scent By Six

Scent by SIX travel gift set

We’ve heard of homegrown brands dabbling in makeup, skincare, and fashion, but it’s not everyday that you come across a local perfumer brand!

Their original collection has become the darlings of jetsetters everywhere because of the incredibly convenient packaging. Each perfume comes in a sleek black tube featuring a twist-up mechanism to unravel the perfume nozzle.

Why is it designed like that? So you won’t ever lose your perfume caps again!

What’s more, the canister inside is changeable, so you can refill it with a different scent, or you can even wash it out and fill it with a fragrance from a different brand for a convenient travel-friendly perfume bottle. We love how multi-functional it is!

The scents are:

  • 1724 Puka: inspired by the beaches of Boracay, the notes include rhubarb, mint, bergamot, musk, and jasmine.
  • 27°F BIEI: you may or may not have been to this town in Hokkaido, Japan, but you can experience its intrinsic duality with this scent made of coriander, mandarin orange, lavender, sandalwood, bulgarian rose, and cedar
  • 123 Tribeca: taking a cue from the concrete jungle where dreams are made, this scent of lemon, orange peel, rosemary, lily-of-the-valley, and brazilian rosewood will transport you to New York City.

The scents by SIX retail at SGD66 each on the Scent by SIX website. Alternatively, get a travel-sized gift set at SGD26 for three 3ml mini-canisters, one of each scent!

9. Sephora Collection Invisilk Mask Mono

Travel Sized Beauty Kits Sephora Collection Invisilk Mask Mono

This amazing new sheet mask line from Sephora Collection was an unexpected winner during the latest episode of Daily Vanity Beauty Lab, where we pitted six popular sheet masks against each other.

The mask fits snugly onto the face and clings in there comfortably. Not to mention, it yielded a good amount of serum even after some rigorous squeezing, and it improved our colleague’s skin hydration level by 9%!

The mask comes with different key ingredients for both sensorial variation and for a host of skincare concerns:

  • Pearl: The White Pearl Brightening Mask refines and illuminates the skin with natural-origin pearl
  • Rose: The Rose Ultra Hydrating Mask infuses hydration deep in to the skin with natural rose extract
  • Pomegranate: The Pomegranate Antioxidant Mask revitalises the skin for a more refreshed complexion
  • Orchid: The Orchid Regeneration Mask moisturises and evens out the skintone while also diminishing visible signs of ageing
  • Job’s Tears: Moisturises and hydrates the skin with natural origin Job’s tears extract from China
  • Green Tea: The Green Tea Anti-Blemish Mask soothes sensitive and stressed skin while absorbing excess facial oil to reduce zits
  • Ginseng: The Ginseng Firming Mask firms the skin and tones it for a more supple and energised look
  • Avocado: The Avocado Moisturising Mask provides intensive nutrition for the skin, soothing and nurturing it into a healthy glow
  • Marine Algae: The Algae Hydration Mask gets rid of impurities in the skin that dulls complexion, revealing a more radiant you
  • Lotus: The Lotus Soothing Mask seals in hydration to ward away tiredness on the skin so you can look more rested and refreshed

Sephora Collection Invisilk Mask Mono retails for SGD4 each at Sephora.
