Exactly Which Beauty Products to Pack When Going on Vacation

Whether you're having an old-fashioned, BFF sleepover or spending the night at your boyfriend's bachelor pad, there are a few toiletry essentials you should always stock in your overnight bag. There's no need to pack your entire beauty battlestation for a quick 24-hour trip; instead, just stick to the basics — and don't forget the deodorant.

A long weekend away requires the addition of a few extra products to your suitcase (a girl needs options, you know). You'll need to load up on supplies for multiple situations: a night out dancing requires a red lipstick, a day relaxing with family calls for a relaxing mask, and so on. The good news is you can still probably get away with one small carry-on in this case.

Not many beauty junkies can go seven days without their tried-and-true beauty buys, so you'll want to bring out the Ziploc bags and travel-size bottles to repackage your everyday favorites. Just remember: if the product cost you more than $25, don't try to trick TSA, because your 5 oz. skin care staple is sure to end up in the bin.
