From Penguins to Peaks: What I Packed for Antarctica & Patagonia

Happy Friday, friends! Mr. SP and I are nearing the end of our adventure of a lifetime, and we’ve had such an amazing trip! We’ve been in Patagonia this week, exploring the mountains and wildlife. I’ve been sharing it on my Instagram HERE, and will be sure to follow up with the full Trip Report for you here, too. You can check out my Travel page HERE if you’re looking for more fun trip ideas.

I turned to our favorite trusty retailers for fun (and warm!) styles to pack, with some new brands thrown in… here’s a peek at what I packed and how I wore everything, going from the cruise ship to glacier, mountain to trail, dinner to lounge, and everything in between!

Skincare //

My skincare and makeup routines definitely get down-sized, and I pack just the essentials to keep my skin clean and hydrated. We checked our bags for this trip, but we do have TSA PreCheck, which allows me to keep all the liquids (under 4 oz.) in my carry-on.

Medicube Peel-Off Mask | Laneige Lip Balm | Intense Hydrating Mask (code SUGARPLUM20) | Illuminating Eye Cream (code SUGARPLUM20) | Toiletries Case | Sheer Renewal Cream (code SUGARPLUM20) | Merit Tinted Sunscreen | Vitamin C Brightening Serum (code SUGARPLUM20) | Hand Sanitizer | Shop All HERE

Travel Essentials //

These are the essentials that come with me on most every trip…

I recently swapped to the Beis Carry-On (and to the checked size for the trip!), and have been so impressed with it! The wheels are so sturdy and roll unbelievably smoothly, and it has maximum internal packing space. Dare I say it’s surpassed the Calpak?! Although, nothing beats the Luka Duffel for the personal carry-on!

Blanket Scarf | Owala Water Bottle | Clear Zipper Pouches | Compact Mirror | Jewelry Box | Outlet Adapter | Pill Case | Redness Relief Eye Drops | SPF | Toiletries Case | External Battery | Letter Pouch | Kindle Paperwhite | Spray Hand Sanitizer | Spinner Suitcase | Glowscreen | Compression Packing Cubes | Nécessaire Set | Shop All HERE

So tell me… are you a cold-weather gal, or do you prefer the beach? I must say, I can’t wait to get out of all of these layers soon! Happy Friday, lovebugs!
