- Hi guys, I'm Meredith Duxbury,
and today I'm here to show you
my "Cosmo" hot girl travel tips.
I love to travel.
I was born in England,
so I grew up traveling all around,
so it's definitely something that I always love to do.
I like taking planes.
It's part of the whole adventure
'cause I feel like I'm getting
to a whole different part of the world
that I've never experienced.
Before I get on a flight,
I like to have clean, nice, natural skin.
Personally there's nothing worse
than being on a long flight with tons of makeup on.
So I'll usually just do my skincare routine.
I'll do a serum and a moisturizer and I'll be good to go.
I definitely use the bathroom in the airplane.
I feel like whenever I'm on a flight,
I have to go a hundred times more
than I would in a regular day.
So you could always catch me in the bathroom on the flight.
The first thing I do always is ChapStick
and usually hand cream.
This one, it's almost gone.
It's literally my airplane hand cream.
This is the Caudalie hand and nail repairing cream.
Smells so good, it just smells fresh.
Really good.
I'm gonna put some on now
because my hands are actually really dry in the winter
and I just got off a flight from Dubai,
so I'm even more dry than I usually would be.
This is my favorite ChapStick
in the entire world to travel with.
This is the Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment.
It is so nourishing and juicy,
and Hailey has so many different flavors.
It's so good.
I always pack this.
I mean, I have a hundred different ChapSticks in my bag,
but this is usually my go-to.
Then if I'm going to sleep on the flight,
I'll make sure to moisturize before.
This one I love.
This is the NUDESTIX Citrus-C Mask.
That's a mouthful.
Daily moisturizer.
It's so good and it also smells amazing.
And I have sensitive skin,
but none of these scented products irritate me.
There's just something about them.
They're so good.
Definitely recommend these.
When you get up from your flight,
if you're sleeping and you have a meeting
or something you need to go to after your flight
or somebody to meet, these two are so good.
This is the Tarte Maracuja Juicy Glow Foundation.
So soft and glowy.
It's not thick.
And then if you wanna set it with a little powder,
this is perfect 'cause it's a brush and powder in one.
This is the Tarte SEA Set & Protect.
So these two are great little makeup products to bring.
You can't forget a cute little mirror.
This is the little cutest mirror I've ever seen in my life.
I love to bring perfume.
I'm almost out of this one actually.
This is the Lancome La Vie est Belle.
So good.
I am obsessed with perfume too,
and I think it's so important
to smell good after your flight
because I feel like airplanes have a certain smell,
and I don't know,
the perfume just makes you feel rejuvenated and fresh.
Hair ties, can't forget your hair ties.
More ChapStick and moisturizer.
This is the Clinique Moisture Surge.
This one I use if I have a really long flight
'cause it's kind of like a face mask.
It's really, really hydrating.
This is the BITE Agave Nighttime Lip Therapy.
I'll use this too,
if I have a really long overnight flight.
And you'll wake up
and you'll still have this stuff on your lips.
More sunnies just in case you're looking a little tired,
and you feel like you need to cover up those bags.
What else is in here?
Oh, this is the Tarte Rose Gold Glow little highlighter.
Like I was saying before,
if feeling a little dry and tired,
just pop this on your cheekbones,
and you'll be looking good to go.
These are more like
if I have some full glam that I need to touch up.
You never know what you're gonna be wearing on a flight.
This is the Patrick Ta Lip Gloss in shade Superficial.
It's so good.
Super glowy.
This is a matte lipstick from Morphie in shade Boo.
I usually like to pair this lip gloss
and the Charlotte Tilbury lip liner together.
It's called Gem Lips
and it just gives a really juicy look, but natural.
So if you don't have any makeup on,
you can still wear this,
and it'll just look very natural and cute.
How could I forget?
This is super important for your under eyes,
so they don't look dry and tired after your flight too.
This is the Dior Eye Serum,
and it has this really nice cooling applicator.
And it'll just help you feel nice and refreshed.
I always have some jewelry in my bags
just in case I forget to pack jewelry
for a trip I'm going on.
I always have some in this bag in case.
And that's all that's in the first bag.
Whenever I'm with my boyfriend,
and he's traveling with me,
I'm like, "Can you please carry my bag?"
'Cause it weighs like 50 pounds.
He's like, "What do you have in here?"
You don't wanna know.
This is the cutest little bag ever
and the cutest little stuff inside.
This is all from Charlotte Tilbury.
And I'm obsessed with mini makeup.
I did a little series on TikTok of mini makeup.
These are the little glow-ons I was talking about.
If you get off a flight,
and you just feel like I need a little bit of makeup,
I'm about to see someone,
or there's some cameras around or something,
these little wands are the cutest.
You just twist them up.
Look at how cute that is.
Dab a little bit on your cheeks.
And they have it in the highlighter,
and I think the contour one's in here too, somewhere.
Little mini serum and little mini Charlotte's Magic Cream,
more moisturizer and serum.
You guys, I literally have a whole makeup kit
in here with me. (laughs)
Also, I feel like it would be fun
to do a get ready with me makeup routine on a plane.
So you never know.
This might come in handy one day.
Okay, next.
This is really important to me
because I feel like planes can be very dirty,
I don't know, and I just,
I feel like I always get sick after I get off a plane,
so I always have hand sanitizer.
This one is emu.
Everyone must use, and it's super easy.
It's just a little spray one and it smells so good.
I swear, whenever I'm on my flight,
I'm doing all my little things.
My friends are like, "Can I use some of that?"
More ChapStick, you guys.
I'm telling you it's a problem.
This is from Laneige.
It's the peach one and the mango one.
So good.
I think I'm almost out of those.
It's just so delicious.
Snacks.
This bag I literally just got back with from Dubai,
so all my snacks are gone.
My favorite snack of all time are dried mangoes.
Something about them, they make me feel healthy,
but they're like a dessert.
I love them so much.
This is the one snack I have left in here.
This is the Kind caramel almond and sea salt bar.
These are so good.
And I feel like I'm such a sweet,
a sweets person,
and this gives me a little dessert.
This little concoction I made myself.
I saw it on TikTok.
It's a de-bloating oil.
It has peppermint oil, lemon essential oil,
Dagga, I think it's called, and coconut oil.
And I made it.
I ordered these little roller balls off Amazon.
And you're supposed to rub it on the top of your stomach,
the bottom of your stomach and around your belly button,
and then you put it in your belly button,
and it's supposed to de-bloat you.
It actually works.
I feel so much better after I use it.
So I've been taking this with me on my flights.
I made one for my friend when we went to Dubai,
and we were just using it the whole flight.
Hydration is key, like I said.
So I bring these Liquid IV hydration multipliers with me.
You just put them in some water,
shake it up and you're good to go.
Oh, these are the masks that I was talking about
that I never use, but I should use them.
I think this is the Kylie Cosmetics one.
This one is from Live Tinted eye masks,
and this is a Charlotte Tilbury instant
and magic facial dry sheet mask.
I have a little beauty blender in here, you never know.
Might need to do a little makeup routine on the flight.
Gum, I love gum.
I have such bad problems
with my ears on flights, the pressure.
So chewing gum really helps to alleviate, I don't know,
the pressure and just help pop my ears.
I'm always vlogging wherever I go,
so I always have my little Sony camera in here.
And it's just so handy and easy
and fits wherever in my bag.
More sunglasses.
I always forget to pack sunglasses too on trips,
so I feel like these are just perfect to have in my bag.
They go with every outfit, they're versatile.
I have these little Zit Sticka things,
And I really never get pimples,
but I always get pimples after flights,
so I always have a few of these little things in my bag.
I have some Neutrogena makeup wipes.
I'm a very last-minute spontaneous person.
Never know when I'm gonna book a flight.
What if I have full glam on,
and I'm like, "Let's just take a trip somewhere?"
So I don't know, I have these in my bag
in case I need to remove anything.
My AirPods.
Love listening to music on flights.
I feel like when I'm on a plane,
I feel like I'm in another world.
So listening to music just, I dunno, relaxes me.
This is another good travel hack.
This is the Benefit 24hr Brow Setter.
If you don't have makeup on,
and you're feeling tired and you're like, "I just,
I don't look good right now,"
I swear, use this, brush your brows up,
and you'll feel like a new person.
It gives you an instant facelift.
I know it sounds crazy, but trust me.
We have some more sculpting sticks.
This is the Tarte Sculpt Tape.
Just like the Charlotte ones,
you just do a few little dots, blend it in,
and you're looking like a brand new person.
Then I have my O Face satin lipstick by e.l.f.
This is in shade No Doubt.
You guys know me.
You know I love nude lipsticks.
This is the perfect nude,
and I cannot go anywhere without a perfect nude
somewhere in my bag.
So this is it.
Also, along with brushing your brows up,
if you wanna put put a little mascara on,
that'll do you some justice too.
It'll just bring your face up,
make you look a little fluttery.
This is the L'Oreal Telescopic Lift Mascara.
And it's so cool, it has a little trick to the wand.
So the front of the wand gives you the load,
puts the mascara on,
and then the side of it will spread your lashes apart
and really lift it up.
This is just a two in one.
You don't need any other lash tools with this.
It'll just make your eyelashes look bomb.
Then if you wanna get a little crazy, (laughs)
you can put on some lashes.
You never know.
I'm the type of person that I feel like would put lashes on
at the end of a fight
and be looking like a brand new person.
This is my little lash kit that I'm talking about.
Four products is all you need.
These are my Kiss Meredith Duxbury lashes in style 4am.
These are the most natural style I'd say.
And all you need are your tweezers,
your little scissors to snip the edges
to make sure it fits your eye and your lash glue.
And that's all.
I feel like this is cute to show you guys.
This is off of Amazon.
I lose everything and I feel like this pink shiny thing,
I'm always gonna see it wherever it is in my bag.
I just keep it in here, and it makes it look cute.
And that's all that's in my bag, you guys.
Personally, I like a window
because of the lighting when you're taking off.
If you get an afternoon or morning flight,
you can take those golden hour selfies.
I usually skip the airplane food.
I love bringing snacks in my bag.
I'm such a snacker.
I'm not a huge three meals a day.
I just snack all day long
so I always have tons of snacks in my bag.
It's so important for me to go to, what is it called,
Hudson News, and get all the snacks
before I get on my flight. (laughs)
My best beauty secret and tip,
even though I'm a full glam queen,
I think that moisturization and just glowiness is key.
Even if you're a beginner, if it's hot out,
if the lighting's not right,
you can never go wrong with a glowy look.
So I always have something glowy packed in my bag.
Thank you guys so much for watching.
I hope these tips helped you.
Let me know in the comments which tips you end up using.
Love you guys. (smacks lips)
(light upbeat music)
