In My Travel Bag










Until next time!



  1. Hope you had a stunning time in Kruger! Certainly looks like it from all your photos!

    Interested to know how much make up you ended up actually using while you were there? My face is lucky if it gets much more than sunscreen and a water spritz in the mornings (waaaay to impatient to get out and look for animals - so I rationalise that my skin could use a make up detox every now and again...)

    How did you find the Sorbet Cleansing Wipes? Love a good cleansing wipe for travelling... And seeing as we're off to Kruger next week (practically counting the sleeps!) these sound like a great option...

    1. Ah we had the best time!

      I used the Vichy BB cream (more like a tinted sunscreen) every single day and I didn't burn at all. I quickly did my brows in the morning and dabbed on a bit of powder on my T-zone, and that was that. I applied mascara the first day, but it just made my eyes burn by 18:00 from sweating so much. The other products like the blush and the cream eyeshadow I used on the last night when we went out to a restaurant for dinner. So technically I did use ALL the products, but not all of them every day. :) Oh and the Vichy thermal spray came in VERY handy during the day when it was hot as hell!

      To be honest, I was a little bit disappointed with those specific wipes. The exfoliating beads/knobblies on the wipes are a bit too harsh for me. You have to be extremely careful not to aggravate your skin, especially after a day out in the sun and the wind. I used the knobbly side on my forehead, nose, and chin, and the smooth side for the rest of my face, but I washed my face properly afterwards because the wipes doesn't remove everything.

      Thanks for commenting, Gina! And enjoy your trip!

    2. That Vichy BB Cream sounds like an absolute MUST for hot Kruger days!
      I love the thermal spray - we have a full on fridge that plugs into the car and I keep mine in there to keep it nice and icy cold.

      Thanks for the feedback on the wipes... Think I'll give those a miss and stick to regular make up remover and cleanser :)
