Packing your suitcase is one thing, but packing your toiletries? That’s where it often gets tricky. The good news? Madelyn—founder of Paris Perfect and London Perfect—and her sister Lisa—founder of Italy Perfect—have mastered the art of traveling light while still staying polished.
Getting ready on the go doesn’t have to mean overpacking. These carefully chosen toiletries will keep you feeling confident without taking up valuable room in your bag. From space-saving makeup brushes to dual-voltage styling tools, these are Madelyn and Lisa’s favorite travel-ready picks.
Dual Voltage Styling Brush: Most hair styling appliances are not dual voltage. This will work in North America or Europe with a flip of the voltage switch and prong adapter that is included.
Multi-Tasking Makeup Brush: Save space with a single “brush”—the smaller brushes are screwed inside—that is so convenient Lisa uses it every day even when not traveling. Very good quality and covers all your brushes from eyebrow, eye shadow, sponge and blush!
Water-Activated Face Wipes: Wash cloths are often not provided in Europe. These don’t dry out like wet wipes. Makeup doesn’t stain towels – plus they’re disposable.
Aquaphor Healing Ointment: A classic for a reason! This is especially good during the colder winter months.
Nivea Travel Size: The Italian staple, this is an all-around lotion that also comes in a convenient travel-size container.
Skratch Labs Hydration Packet: Lisa always travels with these during the hot months when it’s easy to get dehydrated while traveling. The individual packets are so convenient and can just be added to a bottle of water while on the go.
Chewable Toothpaste: A convenient, space-saving alternative to traditional tiny toothpaste tubes and worrying if they’ll last your trip.
Off! Deep Woods Insect Repellent Wipes: Especially useful if you’re traveling in Italy, these individually wrapped cloths don’t take up space and can also be tucked into your bag for day trips.
Sunscreen Stick: Compact and mess-free. Lisa always keeps this in her purse for touch-ups when out and about. It goes on sheer. With that famous Tuscan sun, she’s tried all types of sticks and so far this is the best.
