/ adventure time

One month ago, husband and I moved from Portland, OR to Alaska with one goal: adventure. We left everything we had minus a couple suitcases and our cat and began our new life.

With all this free time, and a sense of adventure stirring inside my every bone, I've committed to spending this time doing the things that bring joy to my life. Living healthy, keeping a clean home, preserving relationships with loved ones, creating beautiful things to enhance my life and others, and being content with living simply.

I'm prepared and excited to take on many new adventures here in the great white north

Travel // Beauty Essentials

Packing your travel bag can be tricky so I'd advise you pack your go-to's first. Bring a couple lipstick options or a liquid liner to easily switch up your look without compromising your skin care or daily beauty favorites. For travel, it's important to bring products that will last long hours but also can serve as multipurpose products. For instance, my foundation can double as a concealer when layered. My blush acts as a subtle tined eye shadow.

There are a million beauty products out there and every woman will swear by her own go-to's. These are mine. I can count on these for every season, in all weather types and are reliable for my daily routine. When I think of travel, I immediately pack these products first:

Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream and Ultra Facial Cleanser 

NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in Gobi and Long-Wear Eyeliner in Via Veneto

What are your go-to travel products?
