22 Beauty Tips for Your Next Outdoor Adventure

outdoor beauty tips

Are you as inspired as we are by Reese Witherspoon’s latest film Wild? It makes us want to pack our backpacks and explore the wilderness. Of course, even Reese’s character wonders, “Oh my God, what have I done?!” The great outdoors can be, well… wild. And while that’s something you should embrace on a hiking, camping or other outdoorsy trip, we say there’s no shame in taking along a few of life’s little luxuries, so you can spend less time worrying about your look and more time enjoying the experience.

1. Dry Shampoo ($5): If you bring only one item, bring this. Even if you’re living a happy life free of shampoo, we’re talking about sweating it up in the great outdoors with limited access to running water. Pro tip: Apply dry shampoo before bed to combat the overnight greasiness, then touch up in the morning.

2. Side Braid: Ever wanted to go full-on Katniss Everdeen? There is truly no better time than when you’re roughing it in the wilderness. A braid will keep your hair comfortably off your neck, tangle-free and cleaner. (Photo via Lionsgate)

3. Bandana: Who hasn’t done the “handkerchief to cover unwashed hair” look before? It definitely helps you look more presentable, and the bandana itself can come in extremely handy on the trail. (via Cute Girls Hairstyles)

4. Face Wipes ($15): You’d never go to bed without washing your face back in the comfort of home, so why start now? Never has the phrase “removes dirt and oil” been so apt than when camping or hiking. Pick up these wipes to stay oh-so fresh and clean.

5. Trekr Travel Washcloth ($6): This is actually a self-cleaning washcloth, made of quick-dry nylon, so you don’t need to worry about rubbing a smelly, dirty towel all over your face.

6. Neutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen ($10): We KNOW we don’t need to tell you to use sunscreen — it’s basically Great Skin Rule #1. Make sure you don’t forget to pack some oil-free stuff for those sweaty hikes.

7. SPF 30 Powder Sunscreen ($30): Another way to add some SPF is through mineral powder brush applicators, like Peter Thomas Roth and Sunforgettable ($69). They cover several beauty steps in one (sun protection, blemish control and a matte look that can be reapplied over makeup), so it’s a great idea when you’re packing light.

8. Fakeup Concealer ($24): Going foundation-free for a few days is definitely freeing, but just in case all that sun and sweat aggravates your pores, a little concealer is good to have on hand.

9. BB, CC or DD Cream: If you just can’t bring yourself to take a hike without some coverage (no judgment here), try a Beauty Balm, Color Correcting or Daily Defense cream instead. (via Brit + Co)

10. Burt’s Bees Lip Shimmer ($4): We definitely think you should take it easy on the makeup for the majority of your adventure. But when you reach the mountain summit and want a special photo to remember it by, we say go ahead and swipe on some lip shimmer Hey, at least it’s all natural.

11. Benetint Stain ($30): Need one good reason why you should spend so much on a small bottle? We’ll give you three: 1) This universally flattering pigment covers your lips AND cheeks; 2) It goes on sheer to give you a natural blush, so no one has to know you’re wearing anything; and 3) The bottle is so small because all you need is a dab on each cheek.

12. Waterproof Makeup: Regardless of how much or little makeup you choose to wear, just make sure it stands up to the elements. (via Brit + Co)

13. Compact Mirror ($13): This may sound obvious, but there are no bathroom vanities in the forest. If you’re going to cover up, you’re gonna need one of these.

14. Towel Organizer ($10): When backpack space is so limited, everything you pack has to have some purpose. That includes a toiletry kit that doubles as a facecloth. Check out this easy peasy DIY from Whimsy Love to make one of your very own.

15. Hand Sanitizer ($3): Hand sanitizer is a must on treks, especially if your travels are taking you across the globe.

16. TOOB Brush ($6): This space-saving item hides your toothpaste inside the handle of the brush and comes with a cover. So. smart.

17. Body Wipes ($3): Maybe this won’t be a concern if you’re going glamping, but if you’re planning on trekking without a shower for a few days? Trust us, these will be a lifesaver.

18. Minimergency Kit ($16): We typically recommend this kit for bridesmaids and holiday gifts, but they would also be totally useful on the trail. Dental floss, stain remover, safety pin, mending kit, bandages — you basically ARE MacGyver.

19. Anti-Itch Cream ($6): Ahhh, nature… we love you until you rub poison sumac all over our legs.

20. Feminine Wipes ($5): No need to be embarrassed. Stay fresh, friends.

21. DIY Sunburn Relief: Forgot to reapply? We feel you. Some aloe vera, coconut oil, vitamin E and essential oils will help reduce the burn. (via DoTerra Blog)

22. DIY Mosquito Repellent: Do NOT allow mosquitoes to ruin your much-anticipated trip. DO skip the chemicals and make your own bug-be-gone spray.

It's taken years (kid you not) to develop this thickvegan instant pot chili. Many recipes out there turn out too soupy and have a sort of muted steamed taste. We've toyed with the measurements here and there and finally can present something we're impressed with. Fascinatingly enough, quinoa helps to bind the veg and tomatoes together; the pseudo-grain swells up and soaks any extraneous liquid. It's an essential part of this simple vegetarian chili that calls for only a handful of ingredients.

We intentionally tried to make it easier on you, because we know getting a home-cooked meal on the table is trouble enough. The most effort you'll have to put forth is cranking open a bunch of cans and rough-chopping onion and pepper. We promise you can get through that prep in about the same amount of time it takes to listen to a single on Spotify.

How To Make Pressure-Cooked Vegetarian Chili

Once cooked, the onions, tomatoes, and peppers practically melt in your mouth, while the beans retain their firmness and chew. This is not a five-alarm chili in terms of heat, but you can certainly crank things up by doctoring it with sriracha, cayenne pepper, or diced jalapeño. If you need more textural contrast, serve it with some tortilla chips. The recipe yields quite a large amount — certainly enough for you to reheat and enjoy all week long. That, or inspire you to host a last-minute dinner party with spicy paloma cocktails for all.

Recipe Notes: Don't rinse the beans! They help thicken the chili. To crank up the heat, dice up a fresh jalapeño (ribs and seeds), and toss it in the pressure cooker along with all the other ingredients. The hot capsaicin will infuse into every bite of the chili.

Ingredients

Brittany Griffin / Brit + Co)

  • 2 cups broth of your choice
  • 1 1/2 cups quinoa
  • 1 large onion, large dice
  • 2 bell peppers, large dice
  • 1 28 ounce can diced tomatoes
  • 1 4 ounce can diced green chilis
  • 1 heaping tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 15 ounce can black beans, drained
  • 1 15 ounce can kidney beans, drained
  • 1 15 ounce can pinto beans, drained
  • salt and cayenne, to taste
  • shredded cheddar cheese or nutritional yeast, to garnish
  • guacamole or freshly sliced avocado, to garnish

Directions

Brittany Griffin / Brit + Co)

Step One

In the pot of a multicooker, combine all ingredients in the order they appear. Secure the lid and lock. Cook on chili/bean setting or on high pressure for about 15-20 minutes.

Brittany Griffin / Brit + Co)

Step Two

Quick-release, carefully remove lid, and stir until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed. Salt and/or sprinkle cayenne pepper to taste.

Brittany Griffin / Brit + Co)

Step Three

Divide chili in bowls, garnishing with shredded cheddar cheese and guacamole (or avocado).

Step Four

Transfer leftovers to an air-tight container, and refrigerate for up to 5 days. Flavor will improve each day as the spices sink into the ingredients.

Our favorite dancing queens (Meryl Streep included) might be returning to the big screen for a third encore of Mamma Mia! and we’re already rewatching the first two movie musicals in preparation.

In an interview with Deadline in May of 2023, Mamma Mia! franchise creator and producer Judy Craymer said a third movie musical is in "earliest stages." She also shared that she has come up with a way to bring Meryl Streep back again.

"I don't want to over-egg it," she said of the unofficial news, "but I know there's a trilogy there…and I do think Meryl should come back, and if the script is right, she would, I think, because she really loved playing Donna."

"Of course I want to do it," Streep said during the 2024 Cannes Film Festival (via Deadline). Sounds promising to us!

Is Mamma Mia 3 happening?

Universal Pictures

Yes, Mamma Mia 3 is in its early planning stages! Christine Baranski just told The Hollywood Reporter that she's met with producer Judy Kramer, and that Kramer has plans for the third movie. "She gave me the narrative plotline of how it’s going to happen," Baranski says. "That’s all I can say! But, it’s not like, 'Oh, I wish it could happen!' Judy Kramer makes things happen. She made number two happen, and it was a phenomenal hit. I wouldn’t put it past Judy Kramer to get everybody back together."

Universal Pictures

A third installation was first mentioned way back in 2020, during a Collider interview with Mamma Mia! star Amanda Seyfried. Seyfried said she was on board — and at the time, she thought the rest of the star-studded cast would be too.

"Listen, every single person in that movie would say yes in a heartbeat because we want to hang out with each other," Seyfried told Collider at the time. "That's what we talked about last time, like did we ever think that we'd end up here again on an Island in Croatia?"

When will Mamma Mia 3 come out?

Universal Pictures

We don't have an official answer about when to expect this highly anticipated sequel. The project is in the "earliest stages," according to creator and producer, Judy Craymer. Cher also revealed to Entertainment Weekly that everyone is "talking about it," but she doesn't "know when they're going to do it."

Has casting information been shared about Mamma Mia 3?

Jonathan Prime/Universal Studios

While nothing's been made official, Amanda Seyfried just said something that made my heart skip a beat. She told ABC News she loves Sabrina Carpenter's music and dropped this admission: "If Sabrina Carpenter wants to play my daughter, I’ll make it happen."

But before she admitted that, the actress said something else that made me raise my eyebrows. "Everybody says it’s gonna happen, but I mean, I haven’t seen a script."

Cher is also eager to return to the beloved franchise and is rooting for Meryl to make an appearance again. "I keep saying, 'Meryl, you've got to come back,'" she said (via Entertainment Weekly). She also said she's told her, "'It'll be fun. You'll have a good time. You'll be able to sing.'"

I don't know what it'll take, but hope someone gets a script in Amanda Seyfried, Cher, and Meryl Streep's hands ASAP!

What is the first Mamma Mia about?

Universal Pictures

The first film follows Donna (Streep) and Sophie (Seyfried) as mother and daughter living on a remote Greek island. When Sophie is about to marry Sky (Dominic Cooper), she sets out to learn who her real father is after discovering it could be one of three men (played by Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgard, and Colin Firth).

Who does the second Mamma Mia follow?

Universal Pictures / NBCUniversal

Mamma Mia 2takes viewers back to 1979, where young Donna (Lily James) embarks on a series of adventures throughout Europe following her Oxford University graduation. On her journeys, she makes the acquaintances of Harry, Bill and Sam – the latter whom she falls in love with. In the present day, pregnant Sophie dreams of renovating a taverna while reuniting with her mother's old friends and boyfriends on a Greek island island.

TBH, we’re pretty happy that Mamma Mia! is far from over, and we can’t wait to see what the franchise has in store for us next. Stay updated on all the latest entertainment news with Brit + Co.

Camping foods are a great excuse to cook creatively, since you're working with limited tools, unpredictable conditions, and fewer ingredients. Not to mention, there's nothing quite as lovely as cooking (and more importantly, eating) under a wide-open sky. As cool as brewing kombucha or mandoline-slicing veggies for campfire ratatouille sounds, you'll probably be happier making easy camping meals while you're living in a tent.

Not only are these dishes delicious, but they're also quick and easy, which gives you more time for hiking, relaxing, or just hanging out with your friends and family! From breakfast to dessert, these recipes make campsite cooking approachable *and* delicious.

What are good meals to make while camping?

Brit + Co

Chili hot dogs, mac and cheese, grilled corn, pancakes, campfire nachos, roasted salmon, and sloppy joes are all easy meals to make while camping.

What is the best food to bring for camping?

Brit + Co

Eggs, rice, bread, beans, canned tuna, cereal, tinned veggies, jams, crackers, protein bars, and fresh fruit are all the best foods to bring for a camping trip. Ensuring your camp is stocked with grains is helpful in sustaining your energy down the line.

What food do I bring for camping for a week?

Brit + Co

You'll want to stock up on some easy-to-use groceries if your camping trip is a week long (especially if you bring your pup!). Bring eggs, bacon, cereal, and potatoes. Don't forget the coffee, either. Load up some peanut butter and jelly, bread, granola bars, chips, hummus and other dips, hot dogs, and canned chili and soups. Fruits that can be stored easily like bananas, apples, and clementines make for good camping and hiking snacks.

What is classic camping food?

Brit + Co

Franks and beans, grilled chicken and hamburgers, and campfire chili are all considered classic, traditional camping meals because the recipes are accessible and simple. Of course, s'mores are always on a classic camping menu.

This is one camping breakfast recipe you can make right over the fire. (viaBrit + Co)

There's nothing ~normal~ about how much we love Normal People's Paul Mescal & Daisy Edgar-Jones. While it turns out we're not getting a Normal People season 2 (yet), the two actors are starring in some of 2024's biggest blockbusters (Twisters and Gladiator II, namely), and we've been soaking up their presences ever since.

Paul recently exhibited his ongoing friendship with Daisy at the Gladiator II premiere in Los Angeles. While he approached Brittany Broski on the red carpet for an interview, he recognized her from her recent 'Royal Court' interview with Daisy:

"You were with Daisy!" he chimed in excitingly. We just love this power duo!

Enda Bowe/Hulu

Daisy Edgar-Jones also revealed that she's remained incredibly close to Paul Mescal after their time on Hulu's Normal People. "Paul is one of my lifetime best friends," she says. "He’s an incredibly grounded person and I am too, I think, so it’s nice to be able to have those touchstones and those people you can laugh about it with and be lighthearted with. We met when I was 20 and Paul was 22; I’m so excited to see where we’ll be at 32, 42, and what life will bring us."

But the coolest thing is that not only is Normal People special for Paul and Daisy, but they've also been able to see the effect of the show on its fans.

"The thing I love people saying the most is, 'It made me contact my ex,'" Daisy continues. "Especially when much older people say, 'I just wanted to reach out to the person I was with when I was 17 just to say you were a big part of my history and thanks for being part of who I am, the tapestry of my life.' And that I really love, because I’m a massive romantic."

Daisy recently revealed they bonded over their training for Twisters and Gladiator II.

"I did running lessons — isn’t that crazy?" she told Variety. "Actually, Paul [Mescal] and I were laughing about it, because he was training for 'Gladiator II' and I was training for 'Twisters,' and obviously he had to be huge and I was like, 'Don’t worry, I’m going to be right up there with you.'"
