Summer Blog: Packing Hacks for Your Skincare

Posted by Sachiko van Veen on

Recognize this? You’ve got a trip planned—maybe a weekend away, a festival, three weeks of camping, or a few days at a friend’s place. Your bag is open. Clothes are in. Sunglasses too. And then it hits you: the toiletry bag.

What should come along? What’s too much? And how do you avoid decanting your entire bathroom cabinet into tiny jars?

Good skincare doesn’t have to be complicated, even on the go. It’s about choosing what you truly use and what your skin actually needs—without the extra baggage.

What do you pack? Practical, small, and effective

Choose products that fit your daily rhythm and work in more than one way. Our Essentials line comes in compact tubes (50 ml) and lightweight, travel-friendly bottles. Easy to pack without compromising on care.

Whether you’re driving to France, sleeping in a tent, or heading to the beach for the day— a few solid basics go a long way.

What’s in our travel bag?

1. Cleanse — a fresh face, even on the road
Sand, sweat, sunscreen, city air… your skin goes through a lot. Rooibos Purifying Face Wash (120 ml) lifts away dirt and impurities without stripping. It has a light foam, feels gentle, and is ideal after a day outdoors.

2. Hydrate — light yet nourishing
Rooibos Lightweight Day Cream is a warm-weather favorite. Airy texture, fast-absorbing, with lasting hydration. Perfect if your skin feels warm or tight after sun or air-con.

3. Refresh — anytime, anywhere
Rooibos Soothing Face Toner (120 ml) is a real lifesaver on hot days. A quick spritz in the car, after a walk, or before bed: your skin feels instantly hydrated and fresh. Pro tip: it’s a lovely wake-up boost in the morning.

4. Repair — evenings or after a long day
The sun is wonderful— and intense. Rooibos Calming Face Mask soothes and adds a hydration boost to your routine. Use 1–2 times a week. Dry(er) skin will be extra happy.

Handy packing hacks for skincare

✔️ Take only what you use every day—skip the “just in case” products.
✔️ Prefer one cream for day and night? 24H crème is perfect: one tube, double convenience.
✔️ Stick to a simple rhythm (e.g., morning: cleanse + day cream; evening: cleanse + soothe or nourish). You’ll always know what to bring.
✔️ Pack skincare in a soft pouch or small zip toiletry bag—it fits anywhere.

Care for your skin, wherever you are

You don’t need to bring everything to care well for your skin. With a few smart choices, your skin gets what it needs on the road—freshness, care, and hydration.

PS: Don’t forget your sunscreen! Read in this blog why applying it daily matters.
