My essentials
These are a lifesaver if you’re lactose intolerant like myself. I’ve tried using the lactaid you get from any pharmacy but they don’t always do the job. These - I can always count on. You can get little canisters to attach to your keys or throw them ...
DairyPill: Ultra-Strong. Always With You.
Best item tracker for iOS. I’ve tried alternatives and they just don’t find your items or randomly disconnects. I’ve saved so much time using the search feature when I misplace my keys or wallet and I also attach one in my bike in case someone decide...
Apple AirTag - Track Keys, Wallet, Luggage
Sadly I’m too invested in the Apple ecosystem so this is the best option for me. Luckily it’s not a bad earbud but I go with the pro since it fits better in my ear. Not sure why but the regular AirPods just fall out.
Apple AirPods Pro 2 Wireless Earbuds, H2 Chip
These are pricey for sunglasses but if you don’t lose them they’re a wonderful pair. Light on face and really comfortable. I used to not wear sunglasses but after getting PRK eye surgery they’re an essential to keep them safe. I’ve tried some cheaper...
Kawika Polarized Sunglasses
Still considered in my recovery phase of my eye corrective surgery so my eyes are more dry than normal. Feels nice on the eye but does occasionally blur vision for a bit since it’s a creamier thinker liquid.
Systane COMPLETE PF Dry Eye Drops 0.34oz 2ct
What a useful little bag. Fits in my pocket and any bag I carry. I take this one if I’m using a backpack and the day bag if I’m using a sling.
Nanobag Ultra-Lightweight XL Tote Bag Blue Waves
Mini bag carry
Usually this all fits in a pouch I can swap between a sling or backpack with very little effort
I keep everything I need to swap around bags. This fits in a sling and has plenty straps to keep things organized.
KonMari | Orbitkey Desk Pouch
Small refillable hand sanitizer that doesn’t take up much space. Feels nice and the skin and smells great with many different scents available.
Noshinku Bergamot Hand Sanitizer Refill Kit
All in 1 charging solution. It’s got usb A and usb C on one side to supply the power and a hybrid lightning/micro and a usb c to charge pretty much anything. It’s a lifesaver for all the gadgets we carry around.
Rolling Square inCharge XS 240W 4in1 Cable
I pair this one with my rolling square in charge cable so i don’t have battery anxiety when I’m out.
Nitecore Carbon 6K USB-C 6000mAh Power Bank
This one is a bit different since it has a small cooling fan built in. It’s a bit larger but it’s MagSafe compatible and keeps my phone from over heating. There’s other great options that are thinner if weight and size a priority.
sharge ICEMAG 2 MagSafe 15W Power Bank 10000mAh
This is the same as the other nanobag but it’s a packable backpack with a zipper. I bring this one if I’m only carrying a sling or a tiny bag when I can carry something on my back.
Nanobag Ultra Lightweight Travel Backpack
I don’t know why they advertise this as “lip therapy” but it’s just petroleum jelly (aka standard Vaseline). I keep one on hand for cuts and I can also apply it on lips if they’re dry.
Vaseline Lip Therapy Advanced Healing 3-Pack
If I have extra space
A little more wasteful compared to the tide sticks since you have to use a full sheet but it cleans way better. Keep a few packages at hand for those accidents.
Shout Wipes Stain Remover, 12 Individually Wrapped
I keep one of these in my pouches to bring if I have extra space. Feels nice in hand and writes pretty well. Not my favorite pen to write with of all time but looks nicer for sure.
Zebra Sarasa Grand Gel Pen 0.5mm Blue Gray
If I’m carrying a backpack I throw one of these in there. Weather reports are unreliable unfortunately so you never know when you’ll need an umbrella. This one holds up against strong gust of winds and honestly my favorite brand of umbrella. It is pr...
