What’s On My Holiday Beauty Shelf?

20th September 2013 : Places : Beauty : Make-up : Away

One thing that I have to be very selective of, when going on a sunny, bikini-clad holiday, is deciding which beauty items I will be taking with me. I don’t know about you, but personally, 90% of my holiday just consists of bare, makeup-free skin (with SPF of course). Therefore, once you have packed what you think you will need, take out at least 1/3 of the products and you should be good to go. I tried to stay very basic, and actually didn’t use all of these items at all. Obviously we all have different types of holiday, some people like to really glam up in the evenings, and if that’s the case, by all means, go a bit more overboard, but personally, I think the minimal the better. 

In terms of skincare, I stayed very basic, and took a RMK Balm Cleanser* (not pictured as placed “neatly” by the sink in the bathroom), Hydraluron, Murad Hydro-dynamic Eye Cream* and a Laneige water sleeping mask (which I like to use in the daytime as a normal moisturiser as it’s so lovely and hydrating). I also have a teeny nivea deodorant which perfectly lasted the whole 7 days. Beats taking the full size and wasting potential extra clothing weight. I also used P20 SPF 20 for the majority of the time I was there. As I’d been in the sun a lot more this year, I wasn’t planning on burning myself to a crisp, so I started off the holiday with a higher SPF and then used this for the rest of the time, giving me a lovely natural tan. I also used a Vichy 50 SPF Face Sun Protectant*. 

I took a fair selection of lip products (First fail). When selecting colours to wear on holiday with the potential of getting a tan, don’t take pale colours or you will look very scary and a little ill. This meant I didn’t get any use out of the Bourjois Colour Boost “Peach On The Beach”. Instead, I mostly reached for my bright orange Topshop Lipstick in “Infrared” which I found complimented my skin tone perfectly. I wish I’d taken a red or a bright pink, as I think they would have looked good also. I took a Maybelline Baby Lips in “Hydrate“, although it’s important to remember that it’s only good for when you aren’t in the sun, as a lip balm with SPF is essential. I had a Piz Buin SPF30 which worked wonders, and I used Baby Lips at night. 

Other items of makeup that I used for the evenings were a dash of Collection Lasting Perfection concealer blended out with a brush, a smidgen of Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation (when it was still suitable for my skin colour – which was only the first few days), Guerlain Bronzer in Terracota* (I used this to death – some nights I only used this with a touch of mascara), Estee Lauder Tease for a touch of blush/highlight, the new blush by Benefit in “Rockateur”* (a nice mix of bronzer and blush), Urban Decay Naked Basics palette (I thought i’d use this for eyeshadow, but I only applied basic eyeshadow once, the only colour I did use daily was the matte brown in Faint for my eyebrows), Bourjois Liquid Liner Feutre* (Used this every night) and Benefit’s “They’re Real” Mascara* in travel sized form (too adorable). I didn’t use powder as I didn’t feel as though my face needed powdering as the sun made it a little dehydrated. I also didn’t use my Benefit Erase Paste as it was too light in colour and creamy for the humidity. 

Other things on my beauty shelf are Oribe Dry Texturising Spray which I did use a lot as it doubles up as a dry shampoo. A teeny bottle of Tresemme Hairspray (which I didn’t use very much), Some Zoeva brushes* which I wanted to give a try, as they had been sent to me a while back (I was thoroughly impressed and will review them soon) and my Soap and Glory Sugar Crush Body Butter Cream (STAPLE).

Do you often find you overpack for sunny holidays? What are your beauty essentials when going away?

  1. Love this blog Zoella, you so so pretty and you and SprinkleOfGlitter are my inspiration :)

  4. Renate

    This was really interesting to read. To me, this seemed really excessive, but then again, I hardy bother with… anything really :) I also travel with a hand luggage 95% of the time, so really, really take only essentials. I thought it was fun how you reflected back on what you used and didn't, it'll definitely help packing for the next one :)

  6. I love going on vacation and not wearing any makeup, but sometimes a little bit is essential, like a light powder and concealer. I always end up over packing, but it's better to bring too much than forget something important, right?

    Any chance of a Rockateur review?

  9. Alies

    Great things!
    I love your blog and your style!

    Nice weekend,

  10. I love your blog! This is a great post :)

  11. Bee Cee

    Wow! This would have eaten into my luggage allowance hahaha! I assume you were allowed more than 15kg ;) Lovely blog post regardless, great idea! x

  13. Conny

    The Rimmel Stay Matte Powder, is great, it really controls my oil :) x

  14. kfc

    I think everyone always overpacks for holiday and have the thought of "oh I need it just in case" when in reality it is never used. I think you brought a good basic selection and I feel skin care is more important on holiday, especially if its one spent in a sunny location! And I agree, the minimal is better =P

    k.f.c.

  16. Jessica

    Loved this post Zoe :) I only take a few make-up essentials when I go away, I take the same amount as you minis the bronzer and blush I have naturally rosie cheeks which is a blessing and a curse haha and I'm pale very pale.

    http://jessdonnellyart.blogspot.co.uk/

  18. I always take a huge make up bag packed to the brim on every holiday and I never learn! A touch of mascara, bronzer and lipstick is all I ever use too. Can't wait to read your review of the Zoeva brushes, and I'd like to hear what you thought of the Rockateur bronzer/blush, I love Benefit blushers and bronzers separately and I'm interested how it'll work as a combo product. Super jealous of the Oribe, I've got long, fine but lots of it, hair like you have, but this is waaaay out of my student budget right now, a girl can dream ey!?

    Hope you had a lovely holiday,

    Tilly xoxo

  19. Brilliant blogpost! i have the naked palette and it's brill! :)

    amylaurenxo.blogspot.co.uk

  20. I aaaalways overpack for vacations. I bring half my makeup collection with me, practically, and then end up using about 4 products in the end. During summer I went to the Caribbean and brought so much makeup with me, which was silly because I was at the beach or in the pool the whole time!

  22. I love how refreshing it is just using minimal beauty products on holiday :) Really want to try that Oribe stuff! Xx

  23. I always overpack when I am away. I love taking my mac face body! Its so lightweight and I always get it a shade or two darker for holidays. Thank god for the small bottle otherwise I couldn't justify buying it. I also love my hoola powder when I get too dark for foundation/I'm being lazy!

  24. Love your blog, it's been a while now that I've been ready it and it's amazing!
    Keep up the good work!

  32. i love banana boat's sunscreen and cherry babylips! i also love to use the max factor eye brightening mascara though it can smudge a bit :) x

  33. Lindsey

    Haha. I also have learned the hard way to bring as little as possible on beach holidays. Mascara, bronzer, and concealer ( and my face washy stuff!). That's it. Tans tend to eradicate the need for makeup. Bless them.

    Lindsey| fairmaquillage.blogspot.com

  34. I always ending up taking far too much stuff with on holiday as i always think "yeah i'll wear that with that, and that with that". Never happens, i end up bare-faced most of the time. Love what you took on your holiday :)

    xx

  39. Bella

    This is a lovely post and great essentials :) I don't tend to take much make up at all and only a few products that I could use in more than one way x

  42. I'm always the same despite me wanting to take tons of makeup with me (as a beauty blogger) on holidays, I know I never wear it so I always take minimal items with me and then over-do it with the clothing. Its the best way to go!

    Eloise | simplynaturale xo

  43. Love the wake me up foundation! I love the shelf

    Emma | masqueradebelle.co.uk x

  44. That mascara is deffo my fave if I am not wanting to wear a lot :) x

  45. Perfect post. I never know what to take on holiday but packing – then removing 1/3 of the items is a great way to narrow it down! I'll definitely be testing this theory soon ;)

  48. Loved this post! Your so inspiring Zoe! In fact YOU are the one who inspired my to make my very own blog! And although my blog how NOTHING on your amazing blog, I feel so happy to know that I actually produce something that someone out there will enjoy or find useful!
    Reading your blog or watching your videos can TOTALLY reverse my mood from bad to AMAZING!
    Your videos are so inspiring and I love them
    You have such a sweet happy bubbly personality, you have THE cutest smile and your just so perfect.
    You are without a doubt one of my biggest role models! This will sound weird, but honestly your positivity has changed the way I think and look at new things.
    Your 'just say yes' video opened up my eyes and made me realize there's a whole big world out there and I just need to take a chance!
    Even though I'm still only 14 and I have my whole life ahead of me, I definitely aspire to be someone as amazing and lovely as you!

    I know you probably will never even see this, but I just needed to express how much of an amazing Impact you've already made on my life Zoe and I haven't even met you!

  49. Looks intresting!

  73. I always over pack when I go away. Its so nice to see what you take, lovely pictures as usual! xx

  75. I really loved this post! I hope you had a really good time in Mykonos with Alfie and his family. I went to Spain recently and their Piz Buin was about 10 euros. What is your favourite face SPF? I am looking for on to use on a daily basis I also definitely overpack however only clothes not beauty products. I love to take my After Sun as I burn very easily. :) Jenny xxx

  76. I usually overpack for any holiday really! I'd take most of the things you took with you like the Collection concealer, UD naked Basics, Stay Matte, and the Wake Me Up foundation. I'd also make sure to bring ALL the lipsticks, just in case haha x

  77. Ohh totally I think over packing is just inevitable at least for me, haha
    because you never now how the weather will go down!
    I like to keep it quite simple even just for the night out just mascara with a bold lip to complement the total look!
    Enjoy your weekend!! x

  79. keb

    Do the Baby Lips in the UK not have SPF? I live in Canada, and all my tubes say SPF 20.

  80. I ALWAYS take too much – I could probably do with just a tinted moisturizer, mascara and lip gloss…but WHAT IF? haha

  81. love thi post♥

  82. Great post Zoe(: and yes, i do overpack, clothes, makeup, accessories. Haha basically everything 3>

  84. I definitely agree! I always over pack… always! I set off determined not to when I start out packing but I only ever use 1/5 of what I bring! I find the sun does wonders for my skin and I come back with such clear skin! Oh how I love holidays! <3

  99. Nice things you`ve got there. I started making lists of things I need a while before my holidays, so I` won`t end up taking my whole wadrobe and all of my make-up :)

  102. Great picks for holidays :) I agree it's good to keep is as basic as possible to give your skin some rest as well as some sunshine xx

  103. I'm confused? I thought Hydrate contained SPF20 in it? Or SPF15 or something? I don't get the 'only use it if not in the sun' comment haha! Other than that I absolutely loved this post. When I am on holiday I don't wear any make up. A little concealer and perhaps a tinted lipbalm and I'm good to go!! :)

    You're so organized! When I go away I just pack everything for "just in case" :)

    Lovely Notions

  114. Depending on where I was traveling to, if there were excellent beauty and fashion centres, I think I might want to go all out and splurge on having my makeup professionally done someplace where they had vegan and cruelty free makeup. That way I wouldn't worry about having what I took there confiscated in transit and would have new ideas when I got home. That said, your beauty shelves look fabulous!

    http://www.full-brief-panties.blogspot.com/

  115. I find that I can swing either way, I tend to overpack or underpack and the thought of underpacking on a trip and leaving stiff behind stresses me out so much so I usually over pack and prepare for every situation. Love your blog Zoe! xx

  116. Lucy

    I live in Greece and when I go on vacation on our islands I always make the mistake to overpack when most of the times I only wear makeup at night and only the basics because of the untollerable heat! thebeautyvictim.blogspot.gr

  117. Great post Zoe! I love seeing what products are packed for vacationing. I'm off to Vegas in a couple weeks so this was quite helpful!

  126. I over pack… every time! Whether it be beauty cosmetics or clothes, I always over do it. I was going to purchased the little colour boost in that colour as well, but I think I'll give it a miss and get some new lipsticks instead. Hope you had a lovely time :) Chanelle Jade xx

    (i actually wrote about it on my blog) :P

    nessiejudge.blogspot.com

  132. I agree completely with your idea. minimal is better! Who wants to go on holiday feeling like they have three layers of paint on. Plus its better for your skin if you don't always wear makeup. And the Stay Matte is my favorite powder; I use mine for everyday looks. Thanks for the inspiration Zoe!

    Love your blog Zoe!! ;) XX

  135. Lovely post zoe, Topshop's Infrared looks beautiful on you!x

  140. Nita

    I also like to keep my makeup minimal during vacations because I'm already stressing my skin out with the change in skincare routine, so I don't want to add more to it. The only thing I may put effort in are my eyes with eyeliner and mascara, since I tend to have a baby face.

    I love the look of the Estee Lauder Tease blush but I know it's been discontinued,
    does anyone know of a dupe?

  166. I always find myself overpacking when I go on vacations! For my upcoming caribbean getaway in October, I vowed to myself not to overpack! I want to make sure that I just pack the essentials so I can have some room for souvenirs! My beach essentials include sunscreen (of course!!!), blush, waterproof mascara, and a lip stain! I'm going on a cruise so I'll probably pack foundation, and fake lashes for formal night! :) What are your favorite beach makeup? Mine is lip stain and bronzer!

  178. I loved my Bourjois colour boost lipstick, but I lost it the day I bought it, it really annoyed me! Two months on and I still haven't found it :')

    My Little Piece Of Internet

  180. I take hardly any products on holiday and i still manage to have too much. I always take too much jewellery too xxx

  182. I always tend to overpack for sunny holidays! I can't really have a free makeup day because when I am on vacation I'm barely at the hotel or whatever I stay, and I can't go out without makeup, I wish I could thoug, but I just feel insecure and more shy than usual… makeup is what makes me feel good with my self so yeah… I really overpack! sometimes for a week vacation I bring like two mascaras and two of everything in case that one doesn't work, I have the other.
    By the way I really love you and your blog <3

  207. General Make-up question for you… I use liquid foundation and then put a powder over it but it i feel like my make-up is always rubbing off and will start to look blotchy… any suggestion as to how to prevent this? also any tips for under eye circles/bags?

  208. Claire

    Depending on where I'm going my makeup varies. If I'm going somewhere sunny and hot I don't bring foundation. Otherwise I just take mascara and eyeliner cause thanks to a special company who's name I shall not say *coughs* Ryanair *Coughs* I can't take so much as I would like. :(

    Pretty Please with a cherry on top check out my blog. Would mean everything. (I hate writing these sort of things cause it feels like I'm spamming.) http://www.clairebells.blogspot.com

  209. I also use the oribe texturing spray and it is fab! I've also been dying to dry the Rimmel wake me up foundation but have not found any drug stores in my area that carry it. *sigh*

  244. This is great, I have a tendency to over pack on products, I always worry I am going to be stuck in the middle of nowhere and want frizz free hair or my false lashes and then not have any there but I am feeling inspired and will pack light when I go on my jollies soon!

    ZOE :) i know you get LOADS of requests but would you please please review all the zoeva brushes you've got? I'm thinking of purchasing because I've heard they're great, but I've got to do so online since I'm from the US. xx

    Awesome :) and btw im thinking of getting the zoeva rose gold brush set do you think it will be worth saving up for or do u recon i should get something cheaper sooner but maybe not as good quality? or are there any similar brushes for a little cheaper? :P

  252. I love your blog so much!!

  253. Thank god for this post,I never know what to take on holiday although I'd say take bb cream instead of foundation when going somewhere warm as foundation is a little too heavy for hot weather!

  257. Yes, I always find myself overpacked for summer holidays. I pack in lot of makeup stuff and end up using only 1 or two of them. this is mostly because I love buying makeup and knowing that I have so many make up products but I don't actually feel comfortable with too much makeup.
    But the ones which I use are definitely my sunscreen and a lip balm (which doesn't really stay more than half an hour)

    I usually over pack for holidays in general, but the only beauty products I really take is mascara and concealer. If im in need of more makeup I go to my twin sister, who is more girly than I am so she has everything! I also pack travel size shampoo and conditioner because they are so cute!

  262. Hearts for evaaaa

    I usually only take powder for a base because I need a light consistency. I find mac studio fix great one for holiday and at home because its amazing in coverage. I only then take a coloured lip balm but if I need anything else, My mum always over packs makeup so I go to her!
