👜 Already In My Bag
A mix of travel essentials that have already earned a place in my bag.
A simple way to keep everything together without digging through a suitcase every morning.
Toiletry Kit | Toiletry bag with easy-clean lining and organization
One of the sunscreens I'd happily travel with. This is the one sunscreen I use everyday as someone with oily skin. It's great.
SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Air-fit Suncream 1.69 fl oz
It doesn't take up much space, I honestly never leave the house without it. Adds just enough color to keep my lips from looking washed out. The only downside is having to apply it with a finger—it can get a little messy when you're out.
The Lip Therapy® Collection | Vaseline®
One of those things you don't think about until you need it. Great for flights, quick cleanups, or freshening up after a long day of exploring.
Shop Wet Wipes for Personal Care - Walmart
I always carry one of these wherever I go. Any alcohol brand, I just particularly like this because it's cute and smells nice.
FRESH, X BT21 Cosmic Wonder Purple Alcospray 100ml - Watsons
Not the most exciting purchase, but one of those things you appreciate on longer flights.
Lifestyle Compression Socks For Women - Sockwell
For days when I don't need a backpack, a small sling is much easier for carrying everyday essentials like my wallet, phone, passport, and camera.
Venture Sling 9L | Large crossbody bag for all-day adventure | Bellroy
Coffee, a long flight, or a quick meeting—this usually comes in handy before I even realize I packed it.
Listerine Travel Essentials Cool Mint Breath Strips
The first few minutes outside in the middle of summer are enough to justify bringing this.
JISULIFE® Official Store | Pioneering brand on portable fans
Sunny days are a lot more enjoyable when I'm not constantly squinting. I like that these feel timeless instead of chasing whatever style is trending.
ERIKA CLASSIC Sunglasses in Rubber Havana and Brown - Ray-Ban
📍On My Radar
These are the products I'm planning to add before future trips.
One of those things that seems unnecessary until you start using it. It's just a really well-designed water bottle that I'd happily carry every day.
FreeSip® Water Bottle - Owala
Long flights, airports, cafés... this is where good noise cancelling actually makes a difference. These are the earbuds I'd pack first.
Sony Premium Truly Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds | Black
Not every trip needs a big camera. This is the one I'd bring when I just want to press record and enjoy the trip.
Osmo Pocket 4 - The World In My Pocket - DJI Global or Other Regions
Luggage isn't something I want to keep replacing. I'd rather buy one that's built well and use it for years.
C-Lite: Ultra-Light Luggage with Curv® Material | Samsonite
Hopefully I'd never need it, but I'd rather know where my luggage is than spend hours wondering where it ended up.
AirTag - Apple
If I'm carrying a laptop while traveling, the first thing I want is good protection. I also like ta sleeve that doubles as a stand, so I can set up and work comfortably wherever I am.
Nillkin Versatile Pro 12-14in Laptop Sleeve
Best backpack for quick travels. I particularly like the shoe compartment so no need to carry another bag for it.
Backpack With Shoe Compartment - Amazon.com
Need I say more? It doesn't take up much space.
Compact Towels For Travelers - Amazon.com
One adapter is much easier than trying to remember which plug works in which country. If I'm traveling internationally, this is one of the first things I'd pack.
EPICKA Universal European Travel Adapter
Comfort matters, but I also don't want shoes that only work with athletic clothes. These strike a nice balance between walking all day and still looking good with almost anything I'd pack.
2002 & more - New Balance
Some shirts wrinkle the moment they come out of a suitcase. This isn't one of them, and that's exactly why it earned a spot here.
Women's AIRism Cotton T-Shirt | UNIQLO US
Sometimes the room is noisy. Sometimes the flight is. Either way, a good night's sleep is worth protecting.
Loop Quiet™ 2 | Noise-Reducing Earplugs for Focus & Travel
A jacket that doesn't feel out of place anywhere. Easy to throw on for early flights, cooler evenings, or when the AC is set a little too low.
Men's Utility Short Blouson Jacket | UNIQLO US
I'd rather carry a compact umbrella than get caught in unexpected rain and spend the rest of the day uncomfortable.
Travel Umbrella - Amazon.com
