International Beauty Guide: Worldwide Tour 101

All Posts, Lifestyle, Travel, Wellness

When it comes to beauty tips, the motto should be – the more the merrier. Us gals need all the help we can get, and just because we cannot visit every corner of the world does not mean we cannot gather all the secrets to perfect hair, skin, and makeup from wherever we can get them. Besides, like every travel junkie, the girl living at airports deserves to have a foolproof beauty kit that will not let her down. Because you deserve to look great and be groomed wherever you are, wherever you go, we are taking a beauty world tour to see how gals from different countries hack it, so we can snag some of their secrets for ourselves.

Beauty from the Land down Under

Apart from their perfect beachy locks, Australian women are known for great skin. The secret is multi-step skincare consisting numerous skin products like hydrating gels, SPF serums and moisturizers, and primers. The secret is in taking your time with a skin-care routine and investing in good protection for a youthful look that will last for decades to come.

The Mediterranean Gloss

Nobody knows hair care like an Italian girl. When you see them walking down the street you cannot help but be astonished and stunned by the almost impossible volume and shine of their free-flowing healthy locks. This is all due to the fact that these girls know the benefits of hair masks. One recipe you can try involves one cup of full-fat yogurt and one teaspoon of olive oil mixed together. Smooth the mixture onto your hair, let sit for about five minutes, and then wash it out with cold water. Bellissima!

Brazilian Beach Body-Ready

None of us are pleased with the sight of cellulite on our thighs, especially when the beach-body season is fast approaching. Brazil has us covered. The trick for getting rid of the awful and pesky orange peel on your skin is easier than you think! Massage is all you need, and a bit of sand. Rub your target areas with sand to improve overall circulation, and exterminate and prevent cellulite.

There is no Care like Asian Skin Care

The reason Asian girls look like girls even when they are much older lies in avoiding the sun and using skin products that are high in SPF. Apart from that, they know the perks of good exfoliation in order to remove dead cells and reveal fresh and glowing skin. Coffee scrubs are their weapon of choice, and you can make your own easily. Let us not forget about Matcha tea, a powerful antioxidant that these girls drink regularly because we all know that true beauty comes from within.

Yummy Beauty from Latin America

Yes, we love eating avocado, but not only is it good for us to eat, but according to Latin ladies, it is the key ingredient of a mean face mask: blend one fresh, ripe avocado and add a little bit of milk; apply this mask on your face for about ten minutes before rinsing. This mask is great for all skin types and especially effective for acne-prone and oily skin.

Travel + Makeup Junkie Tips

Bonus tips for making your travels stress-free: always have travel-sized products ready to go, as you will not be allowed to carry normal ones to the cabin, plus, it is a space-saver. If you love your lipsticks but they take up too much room, transfer them into an empty eyeshadow palette container so you have many options in a minimum of space. Never buy a makeup case that is too big, but rather go for a smaller one as this will ensure that your products are not damaged from all the bouncing around. The only decision to make now is where your next landing is going to be.
