My Travel Essentials
26
items These are the items that are always with me when I travel. I travel about 40% of the year - both personally and for business. These items just make life a little easier.
I just got this suitcase and I am kicking myself that I didn't do it sooner. This suitcase is so easy to travel with - glides thru airports and train stations and has a TON of storage. I'm strictly a carryon gal and this is perfect!! If you travel alot like me, it's worth the price.
TUMI Alpha Continental 4-Wheeled Carry-on
This app will show you the best way to get anywhere around the world. It's great if you are travel planning, or use it real time when stuck in a congested city at rush hour. This app will tell you the fastest and cheapest way to get around the world. I no longer plan trips without this!!
Rome2Rio: Trip Planner - Apps on Google Play
eSims are the way to go when you travel. This app gives reliable eSim that are available for a variety of time lines, in every country and are even available on a regional level
Airalo: Buy eSIMs for international travel
Great to throw in your carry on to combat the dry air in the plane. This 4 in 1 will hydrate your skin but can also be used as a primer and a setting spray. I have the large size at home and then this travel size stays in my suitcase
Rare Beauty Mini Always an Optimist Mist
The best hand cream I've ever used. Not greasy but thick enough to have your hands feeling like a baby's bum. Smell is more musky - in line with the Le Labo brand
Le Labo Hand Pomade - 1.8oz
Also a fantastic travel find that I carry in my suitcase - this top coat dries in minutes so if you need a fresh mani, it can be done in 10 minutes flat.
LE GEL COAT Longwear top coat - Chanel
This mascara will take you thru the longest of travel days - morning til night - without smudging or running.
IT Cosmetics Superhero Mascara - Black
This pink glow powder not only brightens but also keeps the shine away on long travel days - and it's one of the most affordable on the market.
Pond's Angel Face Pinkish White Glow Powder
Been using this for years and it gets my face so clean after traveling all day - another one that's in my suitcase and on my sink at home
Ultra Facial Cleanser - Kiehl's
Eating on the go - planes, trains, automobiles - there are bound to be spills. I have one of these on me at all times just in case
Tide To Go Instant Stain Remover Pen, 3 Ct
Under eye patches are always in my suitcase to combat dry, puffy eyes and dark circles due to jet lag.
COSRX Snail Hydrogel Eye Patch (60pc)
It's the absolute worst when you forget your charger. I have one of these in each of my suitcases - covers the world and has USB ports for your phones. This has been a lifesaver and replaced all the region specific adapters I used to carry with me.
EPICKA Universal Travel Adapter AC Plug
Only started using these recently as I put them in my dog's crate when we travel together. But also great for your luggage if you are checking bags.
Apple AirTag 4 pack
I have owned this for nearly 20 years and it's been around the world multiple times. If you are taking your pet in cabin, this carrier is hands down my #1 recommendation
Sherpa Deluxe Travel Pet Carrier, Large
Always carry these in my suitcase for quick polish changes or to clean up my nails on the go
Nail Polish Remover Pads
In my suitcase at all times for quick on the go hair styling. Great when I don't have a lot of time to wash my hair before the next flight.
Rushower Dry Shampoo | Hair Care - Soap & Glory
This is a must if you use heating tools on your hair. For me, a combination of tough foreign water + heat = disaster so make sure you have one of these on hand when you travel
Heat Protectant - Hair - Ulta Beauty
Love this and can be used not just on your face but anywhere else where you might experience acne (I use it on my back). Comes in travel size for your carryon
Witch Hazel Toners | Alcohol Free Facial Toners - Thayers
Hydrates skins and helps with the prevention of wrinkles and perfect to any toiletry bag
The Ordinary Argireline Solution 10%
I know it's called a “peeling” mask but I just apply a thin layer in the evening. The fruit acids have my skin feeling clean, fresh and tight.
SEPHORA COLLECTION AHA Peeling Masks Papaya
A must have for when I travel - these fight the harsh air from the plane and keep my skin moisturized.
SUNGBOON EDITOR Deep Collagen Mask 37gx4
