This year we’re staying booked and busy … busy booking flights! We deserve rest and relaxation, we deserve rum cocktails and resorts.
Sometimes the worst part about vacation is getting to and from your destination. From home to the airport to the plane and back again, there are so many amazing tips and gadgets that make traveling a little more easy peasy.
My # 1 travel tip is to do your research!
Green Book Global is a Black owned travel and review online booking platform that is dedicated to inspiring and empowering Black travelers to confidently explore the world by sharing “Traveling While Black” experiences. Where is safe to travel and what to do when you get there, you can find it all here!
SPF is a must every day, but especially on vacation to sunny tropical destinations. I love the Supergoop Glowscreen and their newly extended shade range. The shimmery pigment gives you that vacay glow perfect for a bronze no makeup sunkissed look. This product keeps that glow intact with zero whitecast!
Speaking of SPF, I have to shine a light on these two AMAZING sun safe products.
I love the Murad SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen because it’s a mineral sunscreen perfect for acne prone and sensitive skin. It leaves a very minimal white cast, it’s not greasy and feels great on the skin.
Tower 28 Sunny Days is my go to for a daytime light makeup look. It’s a tinted mineral sunscreen that leaves a beautiful finish on the skin. I wear the shade 50 Sunset.
Amex Travelis available to anyone who wants to use it for a nominal fee. But if you have one of the American Express credit cards, the fees are waived, and you get to enjoy a few additional travel perks.

Fillable travel size empty containers are essential but sometimes minis are the way to go! Especially great for short trips when you don’t want to check luggage, and when you do check luggage you can keep all you beauty essentials in your carry on and avoid the worry of lost or delayed bags. It’s also a great opportunity to try new products before committing to the full size! Click here to shop minis at Sephora.
