Why Mini Beauty Is The Best




The aisle of doom in Sephora is every beauty lovers guilty please and I know we all love those beauty mini's whether they are deluxe samples (win), or travel sizes. I have a stash of them kept hidden especially for traveling and they are a great way to try out new products. Let's be honest we have all said 'ahhh' when we see our favourite concealer in miniature size or get very excited when that cry worthy expensive primer comes in a slightly more purse friendly size.

Skincare can be rather tricky to transfer into your suitcase so any travel sizes you can pick up on the way are so helpful, whether it's through complimentary samples or those wonderful mini's you can buy for a few pounds. I always like to keep a mini bottle of Micellar Water around for when I go away and a great tip with a product like this is just to refill it from your big bottle to reuse. If you are going away for the weekend then taking away you normal bottle of facial SPF can be a bit of a pain, this mini Clarins number or the Murad Invisiblur Perfecting Shelid is perfect for a few days of use. Face Masks are another treat I like to take away with me to have a little pamper evening but the big tubs or tubes aren't always the most convenient. To combat this issue see if you can get your favourite in a smaller jar like this GlamGlow number or rely on the good ol' Nugg masks in a variety of skin treating options for their friendly size. One of the hardest products in mini size to find is a good facial mist but this cute little Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist is perfect to use as a toner or a fresh mist in hot climates. Makeup mini's can also be amazing for you handbag and touch up's, from concealer to primers you can pretty much just about get anything. Samples are a great thing to try and get hold of when you shop online especially, mini mascara's, eye creams, and tester blushes can all be so convenient in your travel bag.  Lastly you have hair, now these can be a little more tricky to get proper samples of, so you may have to spend a few pennies. Shampoo and Conditioner in travel sizes are a must have if you are traveling carry on only and you can by great little sets by brands like Living Proof if you like a little hair pamper. A great way to try out treatments is through the Sephora VIB point system, I got these mini Living Proof and Dry Bar samples for 100 points, aka free. You can also use your points for cute little makeup items like this YSL Tint in Oil. Basically mini is THE best and they can be used for a variety of reasons, whether you want to give a product a road test, need something travel friendly, or just love their cuteness. Love...
