Holiday Preparation

I can’t believe that summer is nearly here and the weather is horrendous! That’s why i can’t wait to hop onto a plain and fly into some real sunshine!

I usually go on beach holiday where you lie on a beach all day drinking cocktails and come back several pounds heavier but this time i am going for something a bit more action packed and heading on a safari holiday, so excited!!! The only thing that is making me panic a little about this holiday is that i have to pack realistic and most importantly lightly!

On safari holidays 9 times out of 10 you will be lugging your bag round on your back the whole time unless your lucky enough to get someone else do this for you. I am one of the unfortunate ones though who will be having a bag strapped to my back for 10 days so i have to only take a few cosmetics and beauty products, nooooooooooooooooo!

So instead of going into panic mode i have thought of a few cheat ways round this! If you are off on a Safari holiday and would definitely recommended trying the below tips:

Face –
When you are on holiday there is nothing worse than slapping a full mask of make-up on before you head out. You are going to end up looking dirty, getting spots and it really is not a good look with mascara running down your face. That is why i am getting dark, extension eyelashes fitted then i don’t have to worry about mascara for the rest of the holiday and will have glamorous lashes. I have bought several bottles of Dermalogica sun tan lotion that is also a powerful moisturiser so that i do not need to worry about moisturising daily and there is also very slight colouring mixed in the bottle. I will also be wearing Nivea Lip Care Pearl and shine as not only does this protect my lips and keeps them moisturised it leaves then looking pink and shiny. That’s all that i will be taking for my face so my bag will not way a ton and i will still feel glam!

Hair –
When you are on holiday the worst thing you can do is use your hairdryer and straightners. The best thing to do is stock up on John Frieda Frizz Ease products. I am taking there shampoo, conditioner and dream curls perfecter. This will protect my hair and only take a few minutes to create curls. I have also got a stash of headbands, bobbles and pretty hair clips.
