What to Pack?
The everyday clean beauty care staples you need on your essential travel packing list.
Whether you are planning a multi-week vacation or just a quick weekend getaway, it can be stressful and overwhelming when trying to figure out what to pack. Are you an over packer?

Beyond Gloss

Countersun Daily Sheer Defense for Face - SPF 25
is a must pack for every day and any environment, and even more important if you are vacationing in a sunny destination. You can guard against the sun’s damaging rays with this daily SPF 25 facial sunscreen, formulated with non-nano zinc oxide. This lightweight lotion provides protection from UVA, UVB, and HEV blue light rays while leaving no chalky white cast. Antioxidants help protect skin from pollution, while chicory root extract supports skin’s moisture barrier to lock in hydration.
I have super sensitive skin, which broke out from any and all facial sunblock, and I’m happy to say that I did not with the Countersun! It doesn’t sting my eyes while I sweat which is a plus for me, especially in the summer when I’m outside mountain biking. When we sweat our pores open up A LOT so using a safer sunblock is soooooo critical. Also, in case this means something to you, our sunblock is safe for the oceans and reefs. For me, this is ultra important. I’ll never forget one year prior to being keen on using safer beauty personal care products, the sunblock I had brought to Aruba was BANNED because of the chemicals that harm the coral reefs! Now, let me ask you…. Why would we want that on our largest organ of our body? I know I don’t!
Countersun Mineral Suncreen Lotion- SPF 30
Also can not be left at home when discussing the importance of protecting our body for the sun. It is a water-resistant sunscreen lotion. Formulated with non-nano zinc and California Poppy, this physical SPF 30 formulation provides an effective shield from UVA and UVB, while being gentle and pleasant feeling on the skin. Smooth, nourishing formula blends evenly onto skin with limited white residue. It comes in both a full size and travel size package for your convenience.
