Edinburgh: What beauty products did I take?


At the beginning of this week, my boyfriend and I spent a few days in Edinburgh. I wrote a post about it here, if you would like to take a little peep.

With us only going for three days, I wanted to keep the beauty items I took to a minimum. they always seem to clog up my bag and I'm not the type of person who can travel light. I took an afternoon stroll to my local Superdrug and was really pleased to see that the have a travel-sized section of products. The perfect size for a little holiday.


I grabbed these mini Charles Worthington Shampoo & Conditioners. I think they were roughly £1.19 each? I can't really remember, but they're the perfect size for three days. I hadn't used Charles Worthington products until now, but I can actually say I've finally found a shampoo/conditioner which is perfect for my hair. I think it is a new favourite for sure! They also have different ranges for all different hair types, so there is something to suit everybody! Another great thing about them being so small, is that if you want to try out this product, you can purchase this smaller size, which is a great tester. Then if you like - you can buy the full sized ones!


Another item from Superdrug's Travel sized products was this can of Tresemme hairspray. I always buy this in the full size anyways and have a small one which i like to keep in my handbag. I find that it is one of the only hairsprays I actually like the smell of. For good measures, I also threw in some Solait fake tan mousse and my lady Million perfume.


The miniatures are here again, this time in the form of Soap & Glory (from Boots travel sized section). I didn't want to be lugging around the huge 'Clean on Me' bottle of shower gel, so I opted for this small one. I did also want to pick up the smaller version of Bodyshops Strawberry Body Butter, but it just so happened that I didn't have enough time. the tub i took with me is the 200ml £12.00, but however, you can get the travel sized versions of 50ml which are £5.00.



And last but most certainly not least, my 'couldn't-live-without-skincare'. My olde ye faithful Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish, Toner and Moisturiser. These are the full sized products, but again, Liz Earle provide what the call a 'Starter Kit' with all miniature versions of these products - perfect for your travels!


Have you been on a mini-break this year? If so, where did you go and what did you take?
