Just because you’re traveling doesn’t mean you should toss all makeup regimens aside. Though taking only a backpack or suitcase around the world can sometimes limit what items are actual necessities, making room for a simple lip color can transform your look from week-on-the-road to chic jetsetter.

 

That’s why Bite Beauty’s Matte Crème Lip Crayon is a traveling chick’s best friend. There are a slew of bold colors and it fits in even the smallest of pockets. Not only is it tiny, but it also acts as a lip balm with its super-hydration formula. This alone makes the $24 price tag worth it. Even while moistening your lips, it manages to have a matte finish to keep things edgy yet understated.

 

The more conscious feature of this somewhat superficial product is in its ingredient list. The hydration comes from orange peel wax while the rest is made up of food-grade ingredients, hence the cosmetic line’s name implying edible makeup. You don’t have to worry about accidentally ingesting parabens or traces of heavy metals with your Turkish raki or Peruvian Pisco Sours — depending on what continent you find yourself enjoying a national drink and a night out.
