5 Spring Break Beauty Essentials To Pack

We're excited! It's spring break, and whether you are traveling with friends or family or planning a staycation, we have five beauty essentials you must pack for your spring break vacation to keep you looking fresh and gorgeous.

We've said it before, and we'll say it again. Sunscreen is a must-have all year round but a top necessity for vacation. Determatoligsts recommend sunscreens with broad-spectrum coverage and an SPF of 30 or higher and should be reapplied every two hours in the sun.

Most of us don't like applying makeup on vacation for fear of sweating it off, but have no fear; tinted moisturizer is here! The right tinted moisturizer can provide light coverage while hydrating the skin and leaving a glowing finish. You can even find a tinted moisturizer with SPF to provide additional coverage. 

While we don't recommend using waterproof mascara every day, we recommend it for vacation. The right waterproof formula will hold up against sweat and water. Sabina Wizemann, a chemist at the Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Lab, says waterproof mascaras are typically superior in keeping lashes lifted and curled.

Don't forget the lips! Lip balm with SPF is also a necessity. Your lip skin is thinner and more delicate, so your lip balm should have SPF of at least 30 and super hydrating ingredients to make the lips smooth and soft.

Dr. Kally Papantoniou, a New York-based cosmetic dermatologist, says using a facial mist can be refreshing and hydrating to the skin. It's beneficial for individuals with sensitive or dry skin who travel frequently or live in dry climates. While on vacation, just apply a few spritzes, and it will leave your skin hydrated and glowing.
