Travel Bags 🛍

Travel bags are so important and finding the right ones to suit your style and needs is essential when on the go!  These are my favs - simple yet accommodating to any type of travel - local, air, land and sea.

I absolutely love this bag! Not only does it have 3 large compartments, but it also has little pockets - like lil nook and cranny gems - because I use them for my personal items I don't want to lose. The fabric is water repellent, so spills and leak...

This little number is perfect for on the go!  You can throw it over your shoulder, use as a body cross or adjust to fit around your waist.  There is an exterior zipper to secure valuables - which is perfect if you don't like carrying a bulky wallet, the interior pocket fits my cell phone, glasses, lip balm and gum.  Fits perfect in larger travel bags and carry on's.  Giving this lil gem 💎 a 10/10

Best no-nonsense bag ever!  I use it for the beach, yet could also be used for the gym, shopping, flea and farmers markets on your travels - Easy to pack and go to the pool/beach - sand rolls right out of the bag! I put a water bottle in one side pocket and flip flops on the ot... My towels, books, sunglasses, wallet, ear pods, hat, lotion, reading glasses and shells I collected, all fit in this bag at the same time.  Came back to the room, shook it out and rolled it up to pack home for the next trip!  Highly recommend this bag as a 9.5 out 10 only because I wish it had 2 larger outside pockets.

This travel cosmetics bag is great for a long weekend or overnight getaway when you don't need as many compartments or many products. Again, I love that it hangs up for easy access and location.  Fold, zip and go! 9/10

Now this is something most hotels don't offer and I absolutely love these disposable slippers!  Don't know about you, but walking around barefoot in hotels, motels and all public places when traveling with or without carpet gives me the geebies 😝 - these disposable slippers give me and my tootsies protection and a lil peace of mind!  They are thin, easy to pack and no need to bring them back home so just toss them in the trash on the way out the door! Highly recommend 10/10!  You're welcome😊

When my eyes are wrecked from traveling from too little sleep and I want to wake up looking more refreshed, I just pop on these eye patches before bed or when I wake up. Love how easy they are to put on and actually stay on! 10/10

I love these satin pillowcases!  Yes - I like to use my own when traveling and these are perfect to pack because they basically take up no room.  I wake with better hair, better skin, and sleep like a baby in luxury!  The best part is the zipper - so no slipping off the pillow while you are in slumber 😴 - hands down 10/10!

Do you Gua Sha?  I take 2 of these with me on my travels for my morning routine.  Helps reduce puffiness, relieve muscle tension and improves circulation in my skin - also helps with reducing wrinkles and just keeping my skin looking good!  I love it - couple minutes a day is worth keeping the wrinkles away! This set is nice and cooling too! Just make sure you have a good serum or oil - 10/10

This waist trainer does more than just trim the waist - I love wearing this while I'm traveling because it helps keep my back and my posture straight and demure 😏.  Bonus when I take it off once I've arrived at my destination because not only is my waistline a little tighter, but I also have it with me for any exercising or other activities I may have planned.  This is a 9/10

While these may not be luxurious - they are the perfect size for travel, and I use them for removing anything that may leave an adhesive residue on my skin- like my HRT patches 🙄 - 8.5/10 (lil too small - yet does the trick)
