When John Ray said, “Beauty is power and a smile is its sword” he was probably referring to the beauty which is visible to the world because a beautiful person can get half of the things sorted out without any effort. While you can’t do without every product, you can’t carry everything either. The weight of the beauty product also matters when you are traveling, so it’s always better to carry small bottles or sample size products.

Listed below are 5 make-up products that are must-have in your bag while traveling:

Shimmery Makeup Sticks for Lips, Cheeks, Body, and Eyelids.

Makeup sticks are a perfect blend of creamy formula and sheer color that effortlessly accentuates the contours. They can highlight and merge well with all skin tones. This product has a very velvety and almost transparent texture. Very quick and easy to apply, the sticks leave a very enticing shimmer with the natural finish.

Many of these products help in creating a perfect and glowing complexion and the antioxidants, vitamin E and other essential oil like Acai oil present in them helps to protect the skin from damages.  They stay for a longer period of time and are perfect for traveling when kept inside a tiny clutch or handbag.
