One of my all-time pet hates has to be when you are at the
airport and you are going through security and there’s that women who stops the
entire line because she has decided to take the ENTIRE of her make up
collection on the plane. The regulations of flying states you have to have all carry
on liquids in a clear plastic bag and due to the fact the women has brought
every piece of makeup she owns and has no clue about this rule (which they do
advertise a lot throughout the airport) the entire queue is held up as she puts
everything in numerous sandwich bags. The annoys me so much for so many reasons
but the main one is why would you need that much stuff during a flight?!
Seriously?! In this post I have shown you guys what I take in my carry on while
flying; you are spending hours sitting in a small space so I am pretty sure I
do not need seven eyeliners and all of my MAC lipsticks. Rant over…I promise.
So here’s my carry on makeup bag and things I feel are needed on a long haul
flight:
Bag - Make up Forever, free gift with purchase
Hand sanitizer (the plane toilets always seem to run out of soap) – Dettol
Hand Cream – L’Occitane, sample size as it’s a nice size to travel with
Face Moisturiser (to rehydrate your skin as you land) – Neal’s Yard in power berry
Lip Balm (chapped lips are the worse) – Nivea lip butter
Make Up (so I don’t scare the rest of the plane with my jet lagged face)
Cleansing Wipes (I find these really helpful towards the end of the flight when you just feel all yuck) – Boots own brand in cucumber
Finally a small mirror is helpful for applying makeup and all that jazz.

I do also have another toiletries bag which goes in my
suitcase to go into haul or whatever the other part of the plane is called but
this is all I take on in my carry on as any more to me feels silly. Give your
skin a break on the plane, it gets dehydrated enough.
What is in your travel bag? I have really enjoyed reading
these posts recently and would love to read more so please leave me links to
some!
