End of the year holidays are here and the travel season is kicking off!
We know how tough it is to narrow down our beauty essentials to be brought with us on our trip. Hence, there is a simple solution to ease your beauty dilemma and the key to this is to bring only a single multi-purpose product to suit all your skin’s needs. Here are some suggestions and helpful tips to help you choose one product for your travel needs.
Bio-Oil
Specially formulated with a blend of essential plant oils and vitamins, Bio-Oil is not only known for its effective results on scars and stretch marks but can also be doubled up as an all over non-hypoallergenic treatment oil, which improves the appearance of uneven skin tone, ageing skin and dehydrated skin. Its natural properties such as the Lavender, Calendula and Chamomile oils help to soothe sun burnt skin, and additionally, Bio-Oil is clinically proven to fight the ageing effects of UV rays on the skin.
With a multi-tasking product providing you with an abundance of beauty benefits, packing can now be hassle-free. Here are five tips on how to use Bio-Oil as your multi-purpose travel companion:
1. Dull skin and fine lines are obvious when your skin is dry. Make sure to fully moisturise your face before applying foundation to improve the overall texture of your skin.
2. Moisturise your body with Bio-Oil from top to toe! It replenishes the skin’s natural oils which can be stripped away by extreme weather, frequent bathing, and the drying effects of climate change.
3. Keep your lips soft, supple and hydrated by applying Bio-Oil, especially during dry weather.
4. If you’re having a bad hair day, finger comb through your hair with Bio-Oil to tame pesky fly-aways and to hydrate the dry ends.
5. Add a few small drops of Bio-Oil into your hot bath to help relax and unwind after a long day. It helps to provide a protective layer of moisture on your skin to protect it.
Bio-Oil is available at all leading pharmacies and personal care stores in Malaysia and retails for RM32.95 (60ml), RM54.95 (125ml) and RM74.95 (200ml).
