Use Leg Warmers to Protect Makeup During Flights

I am so excited to be heading to Las Vegas for a much needed vacation in a couple days! Last year during my travels, I had a couple makeup products break during the flight. I could still use them but any girl out there will know how messy eye shadows get once they have cracked. Not fun! This time around, in the mist of getting everything together and packing, I remembered a tip I learned years ago to better protect makeup products in suitcases and I wanted to share it with you.

All you need is a pair of leg warmers. Being a dancer, I had a few pairs laying around the house. If you don't, that's okay! You can get a pair for a really great price at Forever 21. Take your eye shadow palette, blush, powder, or whatever else you want to protect and place inside the leg warmer. If you have a lot of products put some in the other end, too. Begin folding the leg warmer ends into each other until they meet. Try to situate other clothes (socks work great) around the leg warmers in your suitcase to add extra protection and avoid outside edges. Your makeup should arrive at your final destination in one piece!
