Whether it's for work or to get away from it all, just saying the word “travel” gives us shivers of excitement and we're probably not alone. Once the plane ticket has been purchased, the next step is to prepare your luggage. What could be more exciting than getting your things together and getting ready to explore the world? However, it can be difficult to select the right products to bring. Here are some suggestions to prepare your suitcase for your next trip with Quebec products to have a positive impact on the environment.
Cabin baggage
For some, flying is synonymous with stress. Spending several hours sitting in an airplane seat can be nerve-wracking. Even more so if you can't sleep, because it has to be said, airplane seats aren't the most comfortable. With this lavender eye mask, you can relax and have a fresh look even when you get off the plane.
To my dismay, not all airlines offer free food on board the plane. Having an empty stomach or having to pay a lot for unappetizing snacks is disappointing. That's why we always bring snacks to last the whole flight. Bon vivant granola bars are delicious and packed with ingredients that will clog up a corner on the plane.
Although we love to travel, our skin does not always appreciate temperature changes and air travel. We have a huge crush on this super light moisturizer that can be used as a base before makeup or to hydrate before taking the plane. It is not sticky or greasy and you can bring it into the cabin since it is less than 100 mls. You won't be able to do without it, believe us.
Toiletry bag
Chapped lips are another challenge when we go on a trip. We love using the lip balms from Baüm which leave the lips hydrated for a very long time and smell so good. We also have a weakness for these since each product bears the name of a different city.
In order not to produce too much waste when you travel, it is good to have products that are reusable. Considering that a person uses several dozen cotton pads per week, multiplied by the number of people using it, that's an exponential figure. By bringing reusable makeup remover pads, you will reduce this number, while being sure to never run out since you only have to wash them to reuse them.
Ever since we discovered bar shampoos, we swear by these when traveling. If you're only bringing cabin baggage, you won't have to worry about the maximum amount of liquid in your shampoo. If you're worried that these shampoos don't wash your hair as well, think again because they are extremely effective.
The essentials
When we venture into a new place, it is pleasant to keep track of our passage. It is interesting to note the places we liked so that we can share them with those around us. It makes you want to write even more, when we use a beautiful notebook like this.
For some people, jet lag can be more difficult to combat. Considering that a trip goes by so quickly, you don't want to waste too much time recovering from the time change. This balm will give you a good helping hand to fall asleep when it's time. You just have to spread the balm on your feet then put on stockings and you're done.
If you're looking for an all-purpose product to relieve your skin after a day in the sun or to calm it after shaving, this is the gel for you. This soothing gel helps to refresh the skin, hydrate it and calm inflammation and redness; a must.
Of course, this list is only a small portion of what you can bring on a trip. The most important thing to remember when packing is not to pack too much, only the essentials. Also try to bring products that can have multiple uses. Have a good trip !
