Zuzana Štefanides has spent three months traveling in a caravan with her family. In today's blog, she shares practical advice and tips with us. You can read below which of our products made her travel easier.
" I've been using Malinna for a long time, this year it will be 2 years. 2 years of elixirs , 2 years of shampoo , which my hair has gotten used to over time, 2 years when I don't need (almost) anything else in the bathroom."
We spent 3 months in a caravan at the beginning of the year and honestly, I packed my cosmetic bag the fastest of all. I just had to multiply the things I have at home. In stock. Something didn't fit in my luggage, was left at home and I missed it on the road. We used something so often that it became our little internal forum. And something broke and I had to manage without it. But it was fine..”
I packed for our trip:
/ Two bottles in total. In addition to my body, I also use it on my hair, and even though my son and husband only wash their hair with water, I wanted to be sure that it would last us all. We often used it as hand soap in the caravan. The big advantage of Malinna serums is that they can be used in places where the use of shampoos and body gels is prohibited. For example, in public showers at beaches. Their composition is clean.
/ I clean my face with it morning and night and one bottle was more than enough for three months.
/ Oral Spray was our first time on the trip. My husband suffers from canker sores, especially after a change of environment and water, so he used Oral Spray both preventively and acutely. It helped us even when we were sick and had a sore throat. We sprayed it directly into him.
Skin Toner + almost full Skin Toner Refill is my favorite product, I often carry it with me in my purse and spray it on everything. You probably already know where our inside joke came from.
-
Skin Toner.
-
Skin Toner for cream, so it spreads better.
-
Skin Toner for hair instead of conditioner (after three months, I was looking forward to getting home the classic tube, but Skin Toner wasn't enough for me).
-
Skin Toner for minor injuries.
-
Skin Toner for sunburn and water burns (I managed to spill boiling water on my hand while traveling).
-
And my favorite part, spraying it on a cotton swab and disinfecting your nose with it in case of a cold.
/ If I had to choose one elixir for each person, it would be Vanilla. It has a lot of vitamins, minerals, and supports the skin's natural defenses, and both my son and I like it.
/ To my great disappointment, my cream broke. The lid broke on the plane, and by the time I had time to move it to a spare container, the cup, which was stained and slippery with cream, had also broken.
What I didn't pack and what we missed:
/ I didn't pack it and I sincerely regret it. Thanks to the foam maker, you just need to mix the serum (face or body) with distilled water and it will last much longer.
/ I didn't want it, it didn't fit, I felt like we didn't need it, I don't know. I don't remember the exact reason, but I left a full bottle of Cleaning Concentrate at home. It seems to me that using the most ecological products possible in the caravan is even more important than using them at home. I'll write it down right away and pack it next time.
MALINNA° on the road? 10/10.
Clean, functional, multifunctional and, I never thought I'd write this, in plastic. Most of the products are unbreakable, which is really handy when you're on the go!
