Over the last 25 years, I’ve had the privilege of meeting thousands of women all around the world. No matter where I was, on a plane, backstage, in a café, the questions were always the same: How do I save time? How do I keep my bag from feeling like a brick? How do I avoid spills and mess when I’m on the go?
Those conversations became the heartbeat of my journey. What started as my own experience quickly grew into a response to every woman who asked me for solutions. The answer? Making beauty easy, portable, versatile, and just as dynamic as the women who inspired it.
Beauty Batons (Makeup + Skincare Hybrid)
I literally built Ready Set Jet inspired by travel: compact, waterless, and adaptable for any environment, even space. I toss in a few Beauty Batons because they’re all-in-one: think foundation, blush, lip color, highlight, moisturizer, and yes, they're space-certified for high performance! They save precious real estate in my pouch without sacrificing impact.
Color Stacks: The Weekender Eyeshadow
Next, my go-to for quick eye looks? Color Stacks: The Weekender, a warm, sun-baked brown that’s triple-milled for silky texture, loaded with hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, and jojoba oil to keep lids happy and nourished. It’s great for when I want a swipe of neutral shadow that plays nice with any skin tone, not to mention, travel-friendly, bonjour!
Hydrate + Glow Stick
I reach for my favorite Hydrate + Glow stick when the air is dry or the schedule is jam-packed. (Not from search results, but featured under the “Skin” category on the site.) It's my go-to for an instant dewy boost that doesn’t require creams or brushes.
Sculpt & Shine
I also include Sculpt & Shine: a dual-ended baton that nails both contouring and finishing highlight in one swipe. Perfect for freshening up in low-light airport lounges.
Travel-Size Makeup Remover
Among the “Kit” options on the site, I always pack a mini cleansing pad or travel-sized cleanser to wipe off the day—preparing for clean skin or a new nighttime routine.
Why These Picks Matter to Me
🚀 Space-approved performance: Our beauty batons are rigorously tested for extreme conditions and microgravity—and if they can protect skin in space, they absolutely deliver on Earth.
💕 Zero-waste, waterless formulas: Clean, impactful beauty with no spillage, no TSA-fine lines, and maximum potency.
🤹Hybrid, multi-tasking design: I’m a firm believer in “less is more.” My travel essentials must perform double (or triple) duty.
Every item I pack is born from decades of being a makeup artist, entrepreneur, and global beauty authority. I understand the hustle of travel. They’re not just products, they’re tools I created to feel confident, hydrated, and radiant on the go.
Remember: beauty isn’t just about what you apply, it's about the intention you carry with you. Here’s to packing smart, flying far, and shining brighter, wherever life takes you.
Until our next departure,
