Packing can be so stressful. I always question the weather, what I really need, and how I’m going to fit everything in a carry-on! My motto is, “The less I can bring the better!” Recently I ran out of makeup primer and was frantic to find an alternative using something around the house. I hate putting makeup on my skin without it because I tend to break out and get oily. You could say my skin and I have a love-hate relationship. After a little research, I came across this great find..aloe vera! Turns out it’s actually been the answer to my prayers. If you’ve read some of my other blogs then you know how much I love to use all-natural products. The fewer chemicals the better in my opinion. The aloe vera certainly didn’t disappoint either. I’ve been using it religiously and I always bring a travel size with me on vacation because nothing puts a damper on your holiday like sunburn! Now I don’t have to spend a ton of money on primer and I get to save room in my makeup bag! A travel hack win.
