I like to pack a foldable toothbrush like this because then it not only saves space, but I don't have to keep track of a separate case or cover.

I never bring my favorite brushes when I travel and prefer a fold up option like this. That way, if it accidentally gets left behind or damaged, I'm not replacing something more expensive.

This is my favorite sunscreen. It's both unscented and zinc oxcide based. These are both wins in my book because you don't walk around smelling like a pineapple and the zinc oxide is better than other types of sunscreen for safety.

My skin is incredibly sensitive. This hand sanitizer has been the best! Hotels already dry out my skin so carrying products that hydrate is important to me. This is one of the few that I've found that doesn't irritate or dry out my skin.

I actually always carry one of these in my purse, but I bring a second when I travel. It has some basics like bandaids and wipes, but I usually stick some tylenol in there as well.

Don't forget the snacks! I hate being hungry. Maybe it's a byproduct of having food allergies, but I always pack plenty of snacks when I travel. Also, order a case of water via amazon to your room when you get there. It will save you from spending $6...

I'm a fan of bringing an activity book or two. Beyond the initial travel, there isn't always a lot to keep you busy as you wind down for the night. I find myself reaching for these throughout my trip.
