Protecting our skin has always been our top priority no matter day or night in our daily life. And this priority is still on the priority list no matter where we are travelling. Sometimes the skincare routine can be challenging during traveling as we always wish to bring lesser products along when we travel.

So, to ensure our skin is well protected, what are the essential things that we should pack for our trip, especially when we are traveling during summer or to beaches and islands?

  1. Sunblock

Be it SPF 30++ or above, it is very important to apply sunscreen every day as the UV is the main reason for the formation of melanin which later becomes dark spots. If you are travel to the seaside, be sure to bring a higher SPF and waterproof sunscreen.

On top of the daily skin care such as cleanser, toner, moisturiser and serum, we should bring a mask along too. Be it a wash-off mask or overnight mask, bring the mask that can provide moisture to your skin so that your skin will look softer and luminous on the next day.

  1. Umbrella

As the weather is hot and sunny all year long in Malaysia, you should protect your skin by using an umbrella too. Even if you don’t want to use it under the hot sun, we can always use it if it is raining.

  1. Thermal Water Spray

This is what you should always put in your bag too! After a long day of staying in the office, your moisture in the skin can be lesser due to the environment that we work at. To boost a moisture level on our skin, just use a thermal water spray on our face to add some moisture to your skin. Even if you are travelling, our skin can get dry too as we are exposed to the hot sun. This is what you need to boost your skin moisture level.

Most of the after sun gel are made up of aloe vera. It can soothe your skin and calm your skin if you are underexposed on a hot day. Best of all is that you can literally apply after sun gel on anywhere which including hair, face and skin.
