So we’re in Florida at the moment! We are so moving to Florida. Fuck winter! We were so seasonally affected that we were thinking about buying one of those lamps. Sunshine is so much nicer. We are so glad we were forced to attend a wedding here, even if we have been complaining about the plane fare for the last two months.
Anyhoo! We came back to our hotel room after the wedding and found all our favorite things laid out on a washcloth. Man, we love hotels, we were thinking, and then: all our favorite travel necessities! And so we thought we would mention them:
1: Benefit Bad Girl Lash mascara ($19): We would like to add that the bride came into our room, saw it, and was like, "I love this." Bride-approved makeup!
2: Sephora eyeliner ($10): A necessity. We can’t remember where we read this, but we just read the suggestion to sort of scrunch this into the lashes, and we were all, "How could that possibly work?" But it does!
2a: Becca primer ($35): Fabulous and smells like something we want to eat. Sort of like a cross between cookies and cake. And perfume.
3 (top): Becca shimmer powder ($38): Always looks a little robot-y but is super nice with the tan we are about to have, because we apparently do not care very much about the wrinkle-future of our skin.
3 (bottom): Kiehl’s Abyssine serum ($44): We think of this as a light moisturizer for use in environments of incredible humidity.
4: Tarte cheek stain ($28): And the bride was all, How do you use this? And then figured it out. And was like, I want this. It’s awesome.
5: Frederic Fekkai styling gel ($14.50): All that stands between us and a horrifying amount of frizz.
6: Body Shop vitamin E face soap ($6): Our favorite bar soap cleanser, and cheaper than our beloved Purity from Philosophy, which we try to avoid traveling with as it always explodes in our bag.
7: Peter Thomas Roth sunblock ($26): Haven’t used it yet, but we’re planning on it.
8: Becca tinted moisturizer ($40): All we need, once that primer’s set in.
