There’s something about miniature beauty products. We’re not sure whether it’s the cute size, the allure of something that’s at a much more affordable price point, or the idea of being able to try a product before committing to a full-sized one, but we’re the suckers adding the travel-sized beauty products at Sephora’s check out line to our cart. Luckily, there’s a time when they’re really useful — when you’re actually travelling.
Above are some of our favourite miniature-sized products to take with you next time you travel.
A small but mighty army of essentials from Drunk Elephant, this set is not only great for travelling as it has everything you need, it’s also perfect for the person who wants to try everything from the brand to suss out what exactly they want to buy full-sized. Bonus: these will look super cute on the chic hotel bathroom sink.

Launching in June, this eye serum is actually full-sized and not a miniature, but it’ll definitely fly past the security check at the airport as it’s itty bitty. It packs a punch though, and your perfect arsenal against the drying airplane air. The cushiony water-gel helps the skin around your eyes replenish its own moisture for a full 96 hours of intense, crease-plumping hydration.

When you just can’t fake awake after a long haul, a stash of Nars’ famed Radiant Creamy concealer does the trick. The creamy texture helps with the excessive dry under eye area after a flight. Plus, it’s the perfect size to stash in your makeup bag long after your trip.

The last thing you’d want when you’re looking all fly is for your makeup to smudge or fade before your night with your girlfriends even begin. This lightweight setting powder won’t change the colour of your makeup or leave behind noticeable residue and helps your makeup set and stay put.

Fight flat hair with a dry shampoo that does it job well, like IGK’s Direct Flight Dry Shampoo. Powered by turmeric and charcoal powder for a light cleanse that lifts dirt and build-up while absorbing oil and sweat, it gives your hair a heat-free volume boost.
