Here's a fun question: If you were going to a deserted island ... and could only take three skincare/makeup items with you, what would you bring?

For me ... lip balm (MAC Lip Conditioner SPF15), body moisturizer (probably Curel Original Formula) and my trusty Amazing Cosmetics Concealer! Very Happy Although if I'm on a deserted island, I'd probably have more to worry about than my dark circles. Laughing

Going to a deserted island on vacation or for the rest of your life? Alone or with someone? LOL!

If I was going alone I don't think I would care about any makeup. But if I was with someone like my husband I would care. If I was alone I would only care about how I felt, not how I looked. So in that case probably:

Good Oil Face and Body Moisterizer (I would use it on my lips too and all over)
Shampoo
Castile Peppermint Soap
Ocha

- moisterizer
- sunscreen (something with a high SPF!)
- soap

1. the biggest bottle of spf 45-60 SS
2. deodorant
3. large size Sephora super body butter
4. Ok I know I'm cheating but I'd have to
toothepaste or mouthwash

Deserted island? That means there wouldn't be too many other people around. In that case, I'd bring -

1. Aquaphor - moisturiser, lip balm
2. Sunscreen - face and body
3, Dr. Bronner's Castile Soap - IRL I never use this but on a deserted island all those uses listed on the label might come in handy. Smile

I never go anywhere tropical without:
1. Dr Hauschka Sunscreen Lotion SPF15
and
2. Frederic Fekkai Smooth Hair Hydrating Hair Cream
It seems like a good idea to bring:
3. Dr Bronners Castille Unscented Baby-Mild Castille Soap (sorry to be a copycat, but this really is a great multi-tasker)

Mine would be :La Roche Posay Dermopediatrics spray (not my fave sunscreen but it offers the most protection out of the ones I've tried); Prada Shielding Balm; La Vitton Rejuvenating Eye Oil (since it's versatile)

If it's a deserted island..then I wouldn't need makeup (since no one would see how scruffy I am). Very Happy

I would have to take my lip balm, sunscreen and some soap.

If this is a deserted island that means I'd be the only one on it, so I'd take:

hair and body shampoo
s/s
toothbrush
