Acne Kit - What to Take on Holiday

What should you take on holiday if you have acne? A compact holiday acne kit will help you treat your acne without loading you down with all the acne products you own. Before you begin, buy a small waterproof bag for your acne kit. Its also a good idea to buy some miniature plastic bottles that you can fill with small amounts of your chosen acne-fighting products.

Essentials for Holiday Acne Kits

A good oil-free sunscreen is essential. Sunburn can aggravate acne so it is wise to keep your skin protected as much as possible. All good acne kits will include a cleaners, toner, and moisturizer that are suited to dealing with acne prone skin. A non-oily cleaner is best when traveling to sunnier climates as this wont clog your pores. Many acne products contain ingredients that make can your skin extra sensitive to sunlight so always check the label. Tea tree oil is a good multi-purpose acne ingredient to take on holiday. Unlike many other acne-fighting ingredients such as benzoyl peroxide it wont make your skin dry or sensitive to sunlight.

When traveling away on holidays it is vital that you keep up your regular acne controlling regime. It can be easy to let it slip whilst enjoying your holiday but unfortunately this will only lead to flare ups, leaving you feeling less than comfortable in the hot sticky weather.

Small acne kits can be purchased especially for your holidays but if you prefer to make up your own acne kit then be sure to remember that you will be carrying out your skin cleansing routine more frequently on holidays due to the heat so make sure to bring enough acne products with you.

Your holidays should be filled with fun and enjoyment and clean and clear skin will really help.
