Making yourself at home by living out of a suitcase in a hotel room can be quite a feat, but it doesn't mean that your beauty routine should have to suffer! Whether you're relaxing in a luxurious multi-room suite or roughin' it in the great outdoors, you can still stay true to your beautifying habits (to an extent, of course), by equipping yourself with travel versions of the best must-have beauty tools. From a compact kit of makeup brushes that fit perfectly in their own little pouch, to a wireless flat iron that can straighten out the humidity-caused kinks anywhere, anytime, you'll be just as groomed, polished, and coiffed on the go as you'd be in your fully-stocked bathroom at home! Just make sure not to allow your accessibility to salon-worthy mini tools get in the way of your relaxing vacay! Take a look at the slideshow for my favorite travel beauty loot!
