If you’re an avid YouTube-er or if you follow any one of the YT Makeup “Gurus” you’ve probably heard about Coastal Scents. Coastal Scents is not a fragrance brand, but an online company that specializes in an assortment of inexpensive but bath and beauty products.

One of their most popular make up palettes is the 88 Piece Eye Shadow Palette ($18.95). This extensive eye shadow palette gives you a rainbow of colours to create hundreds of looks. Each shadow is about the size of a dime and there’s a mix of matte and shimmer finishes. All of the shaes are rich and pigmented, not at all chalky or hard to blend. At less than $20 this is a terrific item to experiment with and give as a gift to the beginner. I personally have this in my make up collection and I can’t even tell you how fabulous the colours are and its wonderful for travel!

Another popular item from Coastal Scents is the 10 Piece Professional Blush Palette ($15.95) This blush palette gives you all the colours you’ll ever need to achieve that perfect flush of colour. There are four matte blushes and six shimmery blushes. Colours range from dark to bright pink and can also be used as eye shadows.

Deluxe Sable Powder Brush

If you love L’Occitane bath and body products like I do, you have nab this kit if you are going to be traveling this summer. The L’Occitane Provencal Travel Treasures kit includes some of their best products all in one convenient travel case. The set includes:

1.0 oz Shea Hand Cream
2.5 oz Shea Body Lotion
2.5 oz Shea Verbena Shower Cream
2.5 oz Aromachologie Dry Shampoo
2.5 oz Aromachologie Dry Conditioner
3.5 oz Shea Lavender Soap
3.5 oz Shea Milk butter Soap

I love their body cream and hand lotion. They contain nourishing shea butter, honey and essential oils that hydrate and rejuvenate dry, dull skin. This travel set is valued at $57 but you can get it at Sephora for just $35. It also makes a terrific gift idea for frequent travelers.

When you travel, the airplane, change of climate, lack of sleep and other factors can really wreak havoc on your skin. So stay on top of it by using facial moisturizer and body lotions liberally!
