Luxury
Glamour
on the go
By Sherrie Wilkolaski

uxury travelers want the
finest tools when it comes
to their beauty routine.
Filling a suitcase with dozens of
creams and potions can take up
unnecessary space that could be
set aside for another pair of
Jimmy Choos. Wouldn’t it be nice
to have a simple beauty plan that
you can trust? Something you can
grab and go. This luxury glamour
on the go round-up is ideal for
the luxury beach traveler or the
business executive on the run.
I had the opportunity to review
the below products and enjoyed
them all.
Rowenta
Beauty’s Versa
Style™ Styling Iron -$200,
Bloomingdales
Hair care can be difficult when you
have to lug a variety of
apparatuses that help to suit your
mood for curls vs. straightening
and the like. The Rowenta Versa
Style Iron was by far my favorite
piece in this beauty travel kit. It is
five salon tools in one – a flat iron,
roller set, and three curling irons.
They say the magic is in what they
call ProCurling™ technology. I have
been using this every chance I get.
When I travel, I miss my hot rollers,
but no more, this salon quality tool
is amazing. My hair held
the curl longer than my
other curling irons, and
I didn’t have the static
that I sometimes get with
my hot rollers. Ladies, you
are going to love, love,
love this product!
Amarte Daily
ExfoliPowder -$35,
AmarteSkinCare.com
Let’s talk about caring
for your skin and the
Amarte Daily
ExfoliPowder. The first
thing I noticed was the scent, it
was very light. I’m extremely
allergic to perfumes, so I have to
be extra careful when testing
new cosmetics and had no issues
with this product. My skin was
instantly soft and smooth after
the first application. I rotate my
skincare routine, so it was a
nice addition to what I’m
already doing, and I used it
for a week, and feel it
would treat me well on a
trip. My next excursion is
in a few days and it will be
coming with me.
Amarte Ultra Veil® $45,
AmarteSkinCare.com
Next, I tried the Amarte
Ultra Veil light sunscreen
fluid and it is right up my
alley. My alabaster skin
doesn’t play well with the
Sun, so sunscreen is a must
in my beauty
wardrobe. This was
very light, unlike
most sunblocks
which can
sometimes feel like
a layer of mashed
potatoes on your
skin as you move
up the SPF ladder.
This is a SPF 50+
and there was no
greasy residue. It
soaked into my skin
in seconds, leaving
me to second-guess
myself and wonder if I
had used it at all.
Ingredients include Ginkgo Biloba
nut extract and caviar. It’s
waterproof for up to 40 minutes,
and overall absolutely luxurious!
xRepechage Algo Mist®
Hydrating Seaweed Facial
Spray -$33.50, Repechage.
com
The Repechage Algo Mist®
Hydrating Seaweed Facial
Spray was a nice treat.
Personally, I’m not a
misting type, but I did
enjoy the refreshment for
my face when I felt
I needed a pickme-up. It fits
nicely into any
small handbag, so
you can take it with
you by day or
evening. Indulge your
66
face or décolletage with a
spritz or two, when you need a
little boost.
jane iredale Facial Blotting
Papers -$11, shop.
janeiredale.com
When you’re not misting,
you’re blotting and the jane
iredale Facial Blotting
Papers worked much better
than a tissue or any cotton
cosmetic pad. They are made
from organic flax seed, which
I liked. It removes the shine
without disturbing your
make-up. Compact enough
to fit in a wallet or clutch.
