Staying glam while camping in the wilderness

Happy Glam woman by her tent.

Even ‘roughing it’ in nature does not have to stop you staying glam!

By Betsy Green

Our love of the great outdoors can often be a little less fun when we feel like we have to sacrifice some of our beauty essentials and simply can’t feel as great as we usually do.

Sometimes as women, we can be a little disgruntled about camping as we feel that we simply can’t maintain our usual high standards of living. We love to keep our hair fresh and our makeup flawless, even when we are lying underneath the stars.

The good news? You can still be the most fabulous version of you possible while enjoying the great outdoors and all the wonderful life experiences camping has to offer.

Enjoy luscious locks – every day

Dry ShampooFancy having a beautiful, fresh head of hair every day that isn’t greasy or dirty? We understand that camping can’t always offer you that gorgeous hot shower or bath you and your hair needs which can lead to a tad of frustration cant it ladies.

Say hello to your new best friend, DRY SHAMPOO. Dry shampoo is incredible for taking camping. A quick spray leaves your hair feeling fresh, fragrant and clean. Dry shampoo gives it texture and eliminates grease making it the perfect addition to and glam traveller’s luggage.

 

A bath in your handbag

Fresh bath wipesWe all know that feeling when we get a little bit grubby when camping if we haven’t had enough access to hot water. The best thing you can do to ensure you stay, look and feel fresh is to make sure you have some fresh bath wipes.

These wipes can be used all over your body so you can clean yourself from head to toe without having any embarrassing walks to and from the camp showers. You will feel fresh while smelling delicately fragrant.

 

Portable urination device

The holy trinity of Glam makeup essentials

If you love wearing your makeup and cannot stand being without then when you go camping you need to take 3 essentials – all of which will stay put and keep you feeling confident and glamorous.

waterproof mascaraFirstly, a waterproof mascara is a must. This will keep you looking glam even if it rains and will stay on all day. Another option is getting semi-permanent lashes glued in at your local salon.

Secondly, a super stay lipstick will ensure you keep your colour all day long with one application!

Last but not least, a tinted moisturiser. This is better than a foundation when camping because it keeps your face moisturised but ensures you get that flawless look.

With these 3 items, you can ensure you feel as fresh as a daisy without bringing your whole makeup bag and more!

 

Ladies, camping doesn’t have to mean you have to be a grubby version of yourself! You can stay beautiful and glamorous for the whole duration of your amazing trip enjoying the great outdoors!

    The portable urination device and the dry shampoo caught my attention. I’ve heard of dry shampoo but never tried it. Who says one can’t camp and be fabulous?! Great tips.

    I used to try and convince myself I don’t care how I look when I am camping. It is not true. No matter what I want to look pretty. Your tips are fantastic and I do stick to the same products to stay comfortable and feel free to take my own photos any minute.

    Honestly, wilderness for me means just that. Wild hair, no makeup. The less I can pack the better!

    I have to admit that’s one reason I’m not crazy about camping: it’s hard to stay clean and fresh. Those are great solutions to that problem!

    Thanks for sharing these. I love camping but sometimes it can be very challenging. And I cannot say how many times the urination device would save me from the last “praying” moments 😅

    Thanks for sharing. We always enjoy camping as a family but with a tweenage daughter, it has become more difficult. Definitely will share some of these ideas with her.

    Oohhh….I am very glad to know and see a portable urination device. I didn’t know that those even existed. It definitely comes in handy when away in the bush.

    Dry shampoo? I have never tried one. I should check it out. Would have been much needed for my 2 week long road trip in Ladakh where I could not bear to touch water (freezing). Portable urination bag would have been good too. Thanks for introducing me to these. Will definitely be looking out for them

    Part of being in nature is embracing who we are and going natural. But I never leave home without a little lip gloss, and that includes being in the middle of nowhere.

    Truly, a good checklist for girls who like the outdoors. I must try the dry shampoo at home though, never thought much about this earlier, but it would be good to have as a travel essential. I would also like to keep some wet wipes to keep the dust at bay.

    I must check that portable urination device. So far I still prefer to stay at the campground with restroom, but sometimes the restroom is far from the campsite. I would like to check that dry shampoo, too, since mine is big.

    Great tips for women who do not want to sacrifice on make-up and hair care on a camping trip. Personally I think not having a shower every day and getting close up with nature is part of the outdoor fun. I am not sure if I would want to use a portable urination device – but interesting to learn that are things as portable urination devices.

    I have been looking for a good brand of dry shampoo so I will have to check this one out. I actually bought a female urination device for our last long road trip because I was not sure about road stop. But I must admit I give up on all makeup when I am travelling!

    These are some very useful things to carry with you on a camping trip. I had no idea they have a portable urination device that you can use as a woman. I’ll have to buy one of those for my car, lol! It’s so often that I find no restrooms around when I travel!

      Dry shampoo is a must! Sometimes campsite showers (if you’re lucky to have them!) can be not too great so sometimes it’s preferable to not use them! Great tips and the female urination device is particularly genius!

    I realize there may be some women who won’t enjoy camping if they can’t keep up their regular beauty routine. I, however, welcome the opportunity to not worry about mirrors at all and just enjoy nature!
