You could also consider a multi-tasker like Glo Skin Beauty’s C-Shield Anti-Pollution Moisture Tint SPF 30, a three-in-one moisturizer, SPF, and tinted mineral makeup recommended by Engelman. Alternatively, she says you can use a hyaluronic acid serum, like La Roche Posay Hyalu B5 Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum. Meanwhile, a light lotion hydrates your skin without being greasy and lets your pores breathe. An exfoliating cleanser balances the skin and makes it easier to remove the oil. “A lot of people in a hot, humid climate tend to be oily,” Jaliman explains. In the evening, she suggests using an exfoliating cleanser (like No7 Beauty’s Radiance+ Daily Energizing Exfoliating Cleanser), toner, and a light lotion instead of moisturizer. Jaliman recommends using cleanser, micellar water or toner (Engelman recs Humphreys Witch Hazel Toner), and water-resistant sunscreen (like EltaMD UV Sheer) in the morning. If you’re heading to a hot and humid climate, you might make a few tweaks to that list of essentials.

Plus, it doesn’t block your pores, she explains, and it’s great for oily skin as well as sensitive skin. Engelman adds that you can seek out multitasking products like combined moisturizer and SPF if you really want to pack light.Īnd if you aren’t already familiar with micellar water, take note: Jaliman loves how it isn’t irritating but it takes everything off (like eye makeup), so you don’t need to bring a separate remover. In general, both experts agree that it’s important to pack something to cleanse your face (at least cleansing wipes, micellar water, and/or toner to remove makeup and impurities, according to Engelman), moisturizer, and sunscreen. What products should I consider essential when I’m packing? It’s OK to relax-even when it comes to your skincare regimen.

After all, she points out, you’re on vacation. So, she recommends simplifying your routine.

“Most people when traveling don’t want to carry as many products,” Jaliman says. Plus, tweaking your regimen might just make your life easier.
