Traveling as a fashion blogger can be tough. When I went to Thailand, my suitcase was mostly full of impractical clothing that was meant for shooting, too hot to actually wear around in the hot, humid Thailand weather.
While traveling we need to bring jewelry organizers, compact hot rollers and curling irons, travel makeup mirrors. The list is endless! You'll need one big travel makeup case to fit all your beauty needs in one place. I've found my top 10 favorite travel makeup cases and reviewed them below.
