TRAVEL SERIES: Always Ready!

August 4, 2016 Kara Sanchez

I LOVE to travel but I hate to (un)pack so this is one of my tricks for avoiding forgetting something important and to cut down on packing time. I keep certain items always stay packed and ready.  

In Flight Bag - In this I keep my earbuds, phone, passport, some cash, hand cream, a few snacks, in-flight beauty like lip balm, eye drops, touch-up powder, mints, lip gloss.

Earbuds - I keep mine in this little pouch charged and ready.

Chargers/Backup Batteries - I'm sure you have spares like me so it's good to keep one in your luggage. I keep two, one small one that I got at J.Crew for actually talking on the phone because it's cute, discreet and cordless but the Gold Cylinder one for the flight which holds three charges (mine is from Nordstrom but it doesn't seem to be available anymore so the link is for one that looks similar but it's from walmart.com. If you are an iPhone user like me, you can appreciate the short life of our batteries and when you are traveling you don't want to be that girl hovering the only outlet at the airport so that you can sit in an uncomfortable position on the dirty floor to watch the latest Snapchat.

Travel Toiletries Bag- It's important to always refill your travel sizes before you put your luggage away. 

Travel Socks/Slippers- This could be 'me' specific but my tooties are always cold so I like to keep a pair of these Fit Kicks ready so I can stay warm while I'm on the road. At home I wear big heavy Uggs but when weight is an issue, I also keep these packed because I wouldn't be caught dead walking on the hotel room carpet.

Necessities Bag - For me this is a small ziplock bag chalk full of wipes! Shout wipes, nail polish remover wipes, deodorant, feminine wipes and a first aid kit.

Umbrella - One of the best purchases I've ever made was this umbrella, two weeks before I left for Europe (it rained 9 out of the 10 days I was there to be exact). It's so tiny yet so sturdy and I love the color!

Flat tote - Keeping something light and compact for when you do a teensy bit of unexpected shopping is so useful when you don't have to pay that extra weight fee when you might have gone over a pound or ten.

I've been doing this for years and since packing perfectly for a trip can be daunting, Believe me when I tell you it makes the task a lot more bearable, not to mention you never get to the other side unprepared.

Bon Voyage - Kara

I am GRATEFUL for each and every client who trusts me with their face and HUMBLED by those who travel so far to see me. I remember the first time a client flew to Austin to have their brows done I cried all the way home that day. This pretty lady came with her Mom from North Dakota after seeing @makeupbynik came from Denver for her brows. • • • • • #pmu #featherbrows #microbladingeyebrows #austin #permanentmakeup #microbladingaustin #beforeandafter #healedbrows #3Dbrows #makeup #makeuptutorial #brows #browsonfleek #fashion #fashionblogger #microbrows #micropigmentation #austinmicroblading #dallasmicroblading #houstonmicroblading #eyebrowmicroblading #sanantoniomicroblading #browspecialist #makeupparty #browsfordays #nanobrows #beauty #eyebrows #browartist #archaddicts @archaddicts @hudabeauty @beautycon @buautylish @byrdiebeauty.uk @lisaeldridgemakeup @ctilburymakeup
I LIKE BIG BROWS AND I CANNOT LIE {in my best sir-mix-a-lot impression}. I get asked all the time if there’s anyone who can’t benefit from microblading and the answer “NO!” Even if you have a great brow naturally like @askaileen does, I can make it better 🤩 •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

@carolinascogin on her Lip Blush Tattoo procedure
Well I have to tell you guys Kara is just amazing! Besides she is super nice, kind and welcoming. You got to know  she is the queen of perfection! She walked me through the process step by step! She always is in communication with you before and during the appointment! Making sure you like your service and you are comfortable with the procedure as you see on the videos! She has gained my trust over the years since the very first time I meet her about 3 years a go! She is always spot on in her interpretation of what I want as end of result! She have done my brows and now my lips! I would do it all over again in a heartbeat! Thank you Kara, for always giving me the best face and confidence even with out makeup ♥️ #microbladingqueen @karasanchezbeauty Just because we are completely booked for 2019 doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate some of our bridal hair and makeup favorites from last year 😍 Our bride Molly serving face (and now baking a little bun in the oven💕).

It’s ok to be nervous. It’s perfectly normal to be anxious and excited. I promise to earn your trust and give you the best brows of your life! Still unsure? Consultations are available so we can chat about things 💕 Link in bio to book yours today! Sent via @planoly #planoly A client had to reschedule due to a family emergency so if you were thinking about #microblading but didn’t want to wait, here’s your chance!!! The open appointment is Friday February 22nd! 
The next available appointment is April 17th! 
Email Kara@KaraSanchez.com to book 😘 Curious what microblading looks like 15 months later when properly cared for? Right here friends! The poster child of healing and well cared for brows. She gets almost no sun on them, doesn’t use exfoliating agents or acids near them and keeps up with her healing after each appointment. Thanks Danielle for being a shining example of how great microblading can look! Happy Valentine’s Day Love Birds.

Treat yourself and Happy Valentine’s Day 💕 I cut my teeth shaping brows like these back in Michigan and 20 years later I got the chance to shape a brand new set! Thanks to @giadespo for recommending Dina to me. It’s was a pleasure and brought back memories of all my thick browed girlfriends from high school.
