Make your Mom feel even more BeautifulBy Madelyn Miller, the TravelLadyI have my favorite beauty items. But for a short trip, I had been taking a whole bottle or jar. Why didn’t someone think of this great single dose idea sooner? You just take what you need for the number of days you will be gone. FOR MOMS WHO ARE GOING PLACES
Come Fly with me is reminiscent of the days when
jet-setting was truly exclusive. With Whoosh Balm and Shower Jelly to get over
the jetlag, Seanik to wash the sea salt from her hair, and Flying Fox to help
her leave all the silly little problems at home (hey, we don’t mean you) Ciao.
($38.95) A MOVEABLE FEAST IN HAIR CARE When Claudie and Rino Jasper, owners of a well-known salon in Houston, Texas, decided to create a line of haircare products, they posed a survey to each of their well-heeled clients. In response to the question, "what are you looking for in a haircare line," an overwhelming 78% said that they wanted products that they could travel with... Introducing, Beauty-id, the next wave of innovation in hair care. Designed as single dose packets, Beauty-id is a deluxe treatment system that takes travel products to a new level of variety, durability and quality. Infused with special herbs, fruits, and vitamins, each drop is intended to stay as fresh as the day it was packaged. The Assortment: MOM LIGHTS UP YOUR LIFE, HELP LIGHT UP HER FACE
The Light Tweez comes in a convenient tube similar to a lipstick tube making it perfect to drop in your purse or pocket so that it's handy when you need it, and the integrated LED light makes it ideal for use in the car, on an airplane or in a hotel room.

MAKE SURE MOM ALWAYS HAS SOMETHING TO WEARTypically, people don’t brag about wearing the same thing for a week straight, but fans of the Macabi Original Adventure Travel Skirt have good reason to boast. It’s like an Origami skirt, one that reconfigures into many useful shapes. With a snap and a clip, the Macabi Skirt® transforms into various versions of skirts, pants and shorts. When adventure travel calls for light luggage; a wardrobe that’s sensitive to climate and activity changes; and culturally appropriate attire, the Macabi Skirt® springs into action. It makes the packing process easy as pie. This a very worldly skirt that will travel as well as Mom does. As with most smart and deceptively simple designs, the Macabi Skirt® was born of necessity, albeit in an exotic locale. While bonefishing in the Yucatan fifteen years ago, experienced world traveler Carol Louder found herself in a predicament. She had chosen to wear a skirt to beat the heat yet the billowy material didn’t get along with her fishing line, making a tangled mess. After returning from the fishing trip, Carol sought a snarl-free, quick-drying skirt that could just as easily hike as cocktail—one that would be cool, sun protective and comfortable for most climates and respectful of varying cultures. Unable to find the ultimate travel wear, she used her entrepreneurial spirit to create her own skirt and eventually her own business. The Macabi Original Adventure Travel Skirt is made of tough but cottony-soft, breathable Supplex® nylon fabric which resists wrinkles and dries at warp speed. A discreet strap and snap combo allow the skirt to convert into pants, shorts and a short skirt. Skirts feature a comfortable elastic drawstring waistband, oversized pockets (for cameras, sunglasses, tchotchkes), zippered security pocket (for passport, Euros, autographs). As an extra bonus, the entire skirt stuffs into the security pocket for efficiency. The hardworking skirt comes in five colors, three lengths and a generous range of sizes. With such adventure travel bling the Macabi Skirt® has proven to be one of the most rugged, versatile, well-traveled garments on the planet. In its spare time, somehow, the Macabi Skirt® managed to clone itself in the form of a men’s skirt. That’s right, men are not discriminated against in the Macabi Skirt® world. Whether one wishes to wear it for one day or ten in a row; to Pamplona for the running of the bulls, a casual business dinner in Boulder or a Bhutanese temple, the Macabi Skirt® can make the trip.

She will love LUSH’s “Come Fly with Me” zippered goodie
sack. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a private jet or EasyJet, when she is
whooshed away on the spur of the moment all she needs to grab is this neat
little white and blue bag to take advantage of a short break to somewhere
unexpected.
Powered by the bright LED light, the "Light Tweez" is the
same size as normal tweezers, with a perfectly fitting light placed in between
the prongs. The "Light Tweez" offers you surgical precision by placing its
integrated LED light at the tip of the tweezers exactly where you need to
tweeze, eliminating shadows for a safe, precise tweeze, even in the dark.
This light enables an illuminating experience that makes it impossible to miss
even the smallest hair. 
The first, the Schick® Intuition® Plus™ razor system, is
the newest introduction to the Schick Intuition line. Intuition Plus is perfect
for travel because its built-in skin-conditioning solid lathers, moisturizes and
shaves in one easy step so you can eliminate packing shaving cream.
