Whittling down our beauty arsenal into just a few can't-live-without products is one of the most agonising – although ultimately satisfying when we get it bang on – parts of our holiday prep.

But it appears that radio presenter and former The Saturdays star Mollie King doesn't faff about with a label maker and travel bottles, trying to squeeze an entire apothecary's worth of product into her suitcase. 

Instead, the 36-year-old looked cool as a cucumber on Monday when she gave fans an insight into her personal pre-travel ritual. 

Chatting merrily away to her 1m followers via her Instagram Stories, Mollie picked up a few products in British high street retailer Boots that she considers to be her "holiday essentials".

The radio presenter shared that she is set to head off for a few days next week for a "family break", a slice of well-earned respite following her cricketer fiancé Stuart Broad's retirement from the sport. Mollie picked up a few affordable skincare products that are widely available here in the UK.

Mollie picked up an affordable skincare classic

 One of her choices was Garnier's classic Micellar Cleansing Water in its limited-edition Pride month packaging. The iconic skincare product, retailing at £7.99 for 400ml in Boots, is a staple product in the arsenal of many a beauty lover, but Mollie revealed that it was a recent discovery for her.

The radio presenter also bought a hydrating serum and a blemish gel

The radio presenter also picked up French pharmaceutical brand Vichy's Mineral 89 Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Serum, retailing at £26.00 in Boots. The lightweight gel serum is designed to deliver long-lasting hydration – perfect for if you are flying since the humidity levels plummet when you are at a high altitude.

 Another of Mollie's must-haves was CeraVe's Blemish Control Gel, priced at £14.50 in Boots. Packed with salicylic acid and niacinamide, this targeted treatment penetrates pores and works to reduce the appearance of blemishes and blackheads.
