The Great Antler Brit Kit!

Sunday 20 April 2014

Luggage experts Antler recently carried out a survey to find out how many of us won't leave the country without packing our fave British products and discovered that a huge 41% of us make sure we pack our homegrown essentials before hitting the plane! We can totally relate to hiding our preferred teabags amongst the bikinis and suncream . . .

Anyhoo, we were each given an Antler Brit Kit full of awesome branded faves, both housed in a fab Antler Ferdinand Backpack, so we thought we'd do a little show and tell on a few of our travel essentials!

Tara is an experienced worldwide traveller so she sure does know her stuff, but she's particularly looking forward to Glasto this year! Her must-pack beauty essentials for festivals include :
Smashbox Photo Op Eye Brightening Mascara
Vichy BB Cream
Johnson's Face Care Makeup Be Gone Wipes
Batiste Dry Shampoo
Blistex Relief Cream
Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Sunscreen 
And the most important item - Johnsons Baby Wipes!

Backpack: c/o Antler - Dress: H&M - Jacket: HIDE Label - Sunglasses: Ray-ban Clubmasters c/o Shade Station.

Red Ferdinand Antler Backpack

Jade is more of an overnight girl, and whether that means a stay in a hotel or with friends for the weekend it's always about space saving and multi-tasking! So what travel essentials get packed first? 
Benefit Fake Up Concealer
Nivea Creme
Dove Compressed Anti-Perspirant
Lush Flying Fox Shower Gel (if there's no Snow Fairy left!)
Melvita Purifying Roll On SOS Blemish Care
Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm
And the most important item - Andrex Washlets!

Backpack: c/o Antler - Dungarees: H&M - Belt: L.A.M.B. - Scarf: Vivienne Westwood - Shoes: Vans - Watch: Casio Sheen.

Be sure to check out the official results of the Antler Brit Kit survey, listing the nations fave everyday essentials, beauty brands and indulgent snacks with some interesting facts :) You can also find out how you can win your very own Antler Brit Kit using Twitter!
