Remain flawless by knowing all the essential makeup to bring during your trip. Here we have compiled the only travel makeup list you’ll ever need:

Whether you go indoors or outdoors, sunscreen is a travel essential you should always carry. It is one of the best and easiest ways to protect your skin’s appearance and health.
You definitely would want to have it underneath all of your makeup to prevent you from getting any sunburn, skin cancer, and premature aging.

2. Makeup Brushes
Before packing anything else, you have to remember to bring your makeup brushes. Without them, how else are you going to apply all the makeup products you’ll bring?
You don’t have to worry though, as you can easily find an essential makeup brush kit at any makeup store. Be sure to use each brush according to its function.
3. Primer
Primer is a must-have makeup item, especially if you love having light makeup. It can help blur your pores, make your skin appear smoother, and refine your skin texture.
What’s more, a primer doesn’t clog your pores and can even help decrease the oil on your face!

4. Concealer
Instead of foundation that generally comes in a bigger packaging, you can opt for a simple tube of concealer.
They work the same: helping you hide dark circles, age spots, blemishes, and other skin discoloration. Concealer will help you blend these conditions into the skin.
Concealers also come in light, medium, or heavy coverage. So you can choose the right product according to your needs.
5. Eyebrow and Eye Product
Enhance the appearance of your eyes by bringing eyebrow and eye products. Here are some of the things you should always bring:
- Eyebrow pencil or gel: draw them on with a pencil or shape them with gel to manage your perfect eyebrows look.
- Eyeliner: to help define your eyes and create various aesthetic effects.
- Eyeshadow palette: eyeshadow can really define your makeup look. Appear more mysterious and sultry in dark eyeshadow, or cheerful and friendly in light eyeshadow.
6. Mascara

Mascara can do so much to enhance your eyes. It helps darken your eyelashes, lengthen your lashes, and even volumize your lashes to make your eyes appear bigger and brighter.
Just be sure to bring one that is water-proof and smudge-proof. That way, it won’t run down when you start to sweat (or god forbid, cry).
7. Blush
The next essential item on your travel makeup list is blush. It can help make your complexion look healthier and make your skin appear more youthful.
Additionally, you can define your cheekbones with the help of a contour stick or highlighter. Your face then can have a more accentuated look, making the structure of your face appear sharper and higher.
8. Lip Product
Don’t ever show up with no lip product because then you’ll look pale and unhealthy. Be sure to bring any lip product of your choice, such as lip gloss, lipstick, lip stains, and many others.
Choose any of your favorite colors, just make sure it matches the aesthetic of your eye makeup too!
9. Finishing Powder
Last but not least on the list is finishing powder. By using finishing powder, you can make sure that the makeup you put on doesn’t shift and stay on your face for a longer period of time.
It also helps prevent your face from being oily and overall giving it a matte finish.

Now that you know what to bring, it’s time to choose the makeup of your choice and pack everything for your trip.

Be sure to choose and bring makeup items that meet these following criterias:
- Travel-sized
- Multi-purpose products, for example use makeup products that can be used as lip products, blush, or eyeshadow
