6 Beauty Essentials For Your Next Weekend Getaway

The weekend is almost here and we're sure you've got your plans chalked out. After all, monsoon is in full form and the only thing better than an extended vacation is a quick trip to the hills to rejuvenate from the work week. It's also important to pack the right beauty products for your trip. Don't mistake it for packing for your week-long holiday because you definitely don't need as many products or can afford to carry as much as that. We're editing the dressing table to bring you only the 6 essential beauty products that you need for your weekend getaway.

1. Sunscreen

Sun protection doesn't take a break, whether it's the work week or the weekend. Being monsoon, you may write sunscreen off but that's a big old myth we've busted. Regardless if you're spending time indoors or out, your skin needs its dose of SPF.

2. Concealer

For the dinner date when you want to look your best or plan on taking a million pictures, concealer can come to your rescue. Use it to cover up blemishes, hide dark spots and brighten up your eyes. With this by your side, nothing else will be necessary.

3. Kajal

Don't forget to carry your humble stick of kajal for your trip. You may be pleasantly surprised to know it's quite the multitasker. Apply on the lower waterline for a sultry look. Create a winged eye with it on the upper lash line. Or even smudge it out at the outer end for a quickie smokey eye.

4. Tint

Looking good while getting away isn't meant to look made up, only natural. So ditch the lipstick and blush in favour of a lip and cheek stain. Dab and blend it onto the cheeks and lips for a natural flush of colour.

5. Moisturiser

Does this really need an explanation? Day or night, your skin needs a film of moisturiser to keep it hydrated and refreshed. So make sure you don't forget about this essential product when you're packing.

6. Pressed Powder

Finally, don't let oiliness and dullness show up on your skin. A pressed compact powder has sheer coverage and can absorb sebum so that you look fresh and fabulous for the next couple of hours.
