Summer Travel Beauty Checklist!

July 10, 2017 by Juliann

When it is summertime, it seems like I am always packing for a quick weekend trip to visit my sisters, or I am off camping the next week. I am not complaining, but it can get a little overwhelming. Sometimes I get so tired of packing that I want to have the luxury of just grabbing a bag and getting on the road. I don’t have any patience for packing.

I decided to compile a list of beauty essentials that make life-on-the-go a snap! Here are my top picks:

Conair Root Booster Paddle Brush 

I love my paddle brush. This brush is my go-to hairbrush. I love the way that it detangles my messy bed-head hair, and makes my strands look silky and shiny again without causing any breakage to my ends.


Scunci Multi-Colored Mixed Elastics 


With my thick and often unruly hair, I cannot leave home without my Scunci elastics. I keep them in my purse, in my car, and definitely in my overnight bag. I also keep one on my wrist so that it is ready for whenever I want to put my hair up. On nights that I don’t wash my hair before bed, I ALWAYS sleep with my hair up. I love it because when I take down my hair in the morning, it always has nice waves and volume thanks to my Scunci elastics.

DDF Skincare Brightening Cleanser 

My DDF brightening cleanser is the only cleanser I need for traveling. It is perfect for washing my face and getting rid of all of the oil and swet that I accumulate in my travels. Whether washing my face in a hotel bathroom, or in the camper when we are camping, I can always count on my DDF cleanser for flawless, healthy skin.

MakeupDrop+ 


I never realized how much makeup I was wasting and throwing away before I started applying it with my new Makeup Drop applicator. Not only does this amazing makeup applicator help you to use much less product, it also helps blend EVERYTHING into a flawless finish, so you don’t have to mess around a lot and waste your precious makeup or vacation time trying to look good.

MALIN+GOETZ eucalyptus deodorant 

I used to think that the only deodorant that would work for me was the chemically-laden brand that I once swore by. I am a heavy ‘sweater’ and I never realized the seriousness of the chemicals I was using on my underarms. I recently read that those chemicals can cause breast cancer! That is very scary!  My MALIN+GOETZ eucalyptus deodorant keeps me dry, fresh and smelling great with zero chemicals involved. I never leave home without this deodorant in my bag.


Philip B. Russian Amber Imperial Shampoo


I love this compact tub of shampoo. It is easy to stick in your bag and go. I love it for it’s design and especially because of how wonderfully clean it leaves my hair. It also smells so good. I feel fresh and clean after washing my hair.

About This Blog

Juliann, founder of Beautiful Moms

Welcome to Beautiful Moms!

Hi! I'm Juliann, wife of 33 years to Jon, a mom to four amazing children, and a proud grandma to five precious little ones. I live in Oregon.

When I started Beautiful Moms in 2008, my goal was to connect with other moms who were also raising young children. It became a creative outlet for me to share my thoughts on motherhood, review products I loved, and work with brands that help make family life a little easier.

More importantly, I wanted moms to feel seen. It's so easy to lose ourselves in the demands of caring for everyone else and forget that our own well-being matters, too. Every mom deserves to feel beautiful, valued, and appreciated, no matter what stage of motherhood she's in.

Over the years, Beautiful Moms has evolved right along with me. My children are now all grown up, and I'm blessed to be a grandma.

Life changes so quickly

One thing that hasn't changed is my passion for encouraging other moms—it's simply expanded to include every season of motherhood—from pregnancy and baby's first years to raising teens, becoming an empty nester, navigating healthy aging, and everything in between.


Myelie, contributor at Beautiful Moms

I'm excited to have my daughter, Myelie, join the Beautiful Moms team as a new contributor. As the mom of a newborn and a busy toddler, she brings a fresh perspective on modern motherhood.

She lives in Alabama with her military husband, so she also understands the unique challenges of military life, frequent moves, and building a happy home wherever life takes you.
