There’s nothing like treating yourself to a staycation. Regardless of whether or not you’re a homebody who likes to stay in, a hotel can make you feel expensive — even if it’s in your hometown! Some hotels may offer the most luxurious beauty brands, but we know many beauty fans have a routine they want to stick to. Not sure which products to bring? We’re here to help.

Whether you’re looking for makeup or skincare products, here are picks to make the most out of your staycation.
