As you may know, we like to travel a little so we know there's always so much to think about when going anywhere, even if it's just for a few nights. From trips far abroad to uk road trips, there's always that annoying feeling that you've forgotten something. Planning is one of the most difficult, and most stressful parts of travelling, above the stressful air travel, catching transport on time etc. But we firmly believe that knowing what to pack is by far the hardest. By. Far. Especially if you're hand luggage only.
Packing clothes is one thing; deciding what outfits to bring, do you need outfits for every time of day, spares, choices, all the while making sure that it all fits and is still within the weight limit. My real trouble is deciding what beauty products to take with me - I always struggle with skincare in particular as my evening routine has about 10 products in, of varying sizes! The products range from big pots of moisturiser to tiny bottles of serum, and you've got to get in those 3-step essentials too so fitting it all into a 10kg mini suitcase and keeping it all under 100ml is truthfully very tricky. I can't be the only one who has this issue!
The lovely team over at nbpr sent us the answer to all our travel packing problems - Frances Prescott Tri-Balm.
This ultimate multi-purpose skincare product was created by the legend, leading makeup artist and expert facialist Frances Prescott. It contains the purest natural ingredients, no harmful chemicals, nor parabens, silicones or synthetics, what's more, Tri-balm is 100% cruelty free.
Prescott's vision was to create a product inspired by the healing powers of nature to nourish and nurture the skin to promote a healthy, glowing complexion.
If like me, you struggle to fit everything in your suitcase when travelling or are just sick of having products clutter up your bathroom vanity, Tri-Balm is so simple and easy to use. Here's a full list of all the uses this little beauty (which by the way is less than 100ml, and technically isn't a liquid anyway so you don't have to squash it into one of those silly security sandwich bags) can fulfil to make your life a little less cluttered and help you pack less. So we'll start with the obvious ones; Apply this balm all over your face, massaging in a circular motion and rinsing with warm water and the three obvious uses will be revealed.
Cleanser: Rich in a blend of botanical oils and beeswax emulsifiers, this balm is incredibly luxurious and can help remove impurities as well as your makeup without clogging pores or irritating the skin.
Exfoliator: The pumpkin enzymes within this balm work to gently exfoliate without the need for those irritating (and harmful to the environment) plastic microbeads or harsh ingredients. It's packed with proteolytic (yeah, I don't know what that is either..) enzymes and antioxidant vitamins A and C which means it gently breaks down dead skin cells, speeds up cell renewal and leaves the skin soft and bright.
Moisturiser: Also containing vitamin E which helps nourish the skin and sodium hyaluronate, which is a water-soluble salt form of hyaluronic acid to help retain 1000x its weight in water, this balm also helps stimulate retinoid acid and boost collagen synthesis. Basically - your skin will be super hydrated!
Intense Moisturising Mask: When the balm is applied liberally over the face and left for 15-20 minutes (or as long as you want - it's your skin!), it allows the natural ingredients to melt into the skin and maximise the benefits of the ingredients. Once you've had a little nap and are feeling super refreshed after your little pamper sesh, emulsify the balm with water and rise or simply tissue off to leave perfectly cleansed, moisturised skin. Voila!
Hydrating Body Balm: Suffering from dry, chapped skin now the weather's cooled down? If you apply Tri-Balm to your dry areas like your elbows and knees, it will deeply hydrate your skin and get rid of that scaly looking dryness - something I've really been suffering from recently.
Hand and Nail Oil: The natural oils within this must-have balm can be fantastic at softening over-worked hands and enrich your cuticles. Gently massage into your cuticles and rinse to reveal super soft, regenerated hands and nails.
Makeup Additive: Mix in a pea-sized amount of Tri-Balm into your foundation to create gorgeous, glowy, natural looking skin.
Give yourself a complete all-over pamper from head to toe with this one balm that's 100% spill proof, travel-friendly and suitable for all skintypes - Tri-Balm is now available direct from FrancesPrescott.com, Liberty London, Amazon and cultbeauty.co.uk for £45 - an investment you'll wish you made sooner!
