The best beauty products for camping

By Sarah Joan Ross on 17/5/2021

Whether you’re planning a family reunion eco-pod style in the Cotswolds or a romantic rustic yurt stay in Cornwall – glamping or camping in the UK requires some prep, when it comes to packing.

From brilliant quick-dry towels to the best in little luxuries, here are the genius products that will make you look, feel and smell good.


Culture Whisper is your curated guide to the best of London. We may earn a commission for items purchased through our retailer links.

​The best natural and sustainable insect repellent | incognito Insect Repellent, £10.99

​The best natural and sustainable insect repellent | incognito Insect Repellent, £10.99

incognito Insect Repellent was recommended by a doctor and we haven’t looked back. It’s 100% natural and has some great eco-credentials like COSMOS and Vegan Society approved. Packaging is sourced from sugar cane – so it's 100% recyclable, and the formula is DEET-free, non-toxic, and smells lovely. You can use it both here and in the tropics.

Great hair on your travels | ​GHD Travel Hairdryer, £59

If you can get away with ‘air drying’ then click here for the perfect products. If your hair behaves only with a decent blow-dry – then invest in the GHD Travel Hairdryer – it is 50% lighter than the average but has 70% the power and is certainly better than most hospitality hot-air offerings.

​Complexion perfecter | It Cosmetics Travel Size Your Skin But Better, £14

You might not want a full face while camping – but this CC cream helps to even out the complexion. It offers a natural finish, and the addition of an SPF50 is another skin-win too.

​Freshen up | Ace Travel Buddy Large Body Wet Wipes Biodegradable, £7.97

​Freshen up | Ace Travel Buddy Large Body Wet Wipes Biodegradable, £7.97

​Keep your cool | Dyson Pure Hot+Cool Fan, £499

​Keep your cool | Dyson Pure Hot+Cool Fan, £499

There’s one thing that can ruin the whole experience – that’s a sweaty hot tent (FYI, husband and kids generate a lot of heat), so it's Dyson to the rescue with its Hot+Cool fan. It regulates the temperature to keep it cool or heat things up a bit if the temperature drops – electricity allowing, that is.

​Soak it up | Dr. Hauschka Silk Body Powder, £22.50

​Luxurious lashes | Nars Climax Mascara Travel Size, £10

​Luxurious lashes | Nars Climax Mascara Travel Size, £10

A few carefully applied lash extensions are by far the easiest way to deal with lashes when camping – and they do away with the need to pack endless amounts of oily eye make-up remover. But, if you didn’t get around to booking in, then you can’t go far wrong with this handy mini-tube of mascara.
