Instead of pre-holiday beauty regime...on-holiday beauty regime?!

Am off on hols with extended family and likely to have time to myself for once so I thought I would take some beauty stuff to try while I have the time!

I am going to take some of the sachet facemasks (especially the peely one - so satisfying) I was thinking of getting a hair mask of some kind? Never tried one so recs are welcome...and maybe some kind of hardcore body scrub or brush to make my skin all glowy and smooth instead of spotty and congested...

Any recommendations for products or other treatments to take and try are very welcome - I shall come home a goddess I tell you! Grin

The Philip Kingsley Elastisizer is fab for hair :)

If you can get some sheet masks, they are really relaxing. Like a thin cotton sheet with serums in it; put on clean face and wait for it to dry, remove and pat into your skin. No mess as well which is abonus

Best scrub is the ren salt scrub, partic if you do it on dry skin first then dampen your hands and rescrub with a small amount of water and then wash off. Smooth as a baby's bum after that.

If you will have a bath then some nice bath oil and little tiny travel candle in a tin.

Don't forget foot stuff. My feet always look terrible after about 5 days!

Oo yes a relaxing manicure on the balcony of your hotel in the balmy holiday air (not sure where you are headed?) is always a favourite for me.

If you can get hold of an Italy towel before you leave that will leave your skin glowing and smooth

Take your most luxurious body butter/cream and use it every day.

Yes yes to sheet masks in the am and pm

Salt scrub sounds goood -and a tiny candle is a lovely idea Smile my feet are hideous...I considered getting that ghastly footner thing but I can't face it! I'll get a pumice sponge thingy though and some foot cream...thanks for the suggestions Flowers
