Sleep while traveling. 💤
THE BEST ear plugs for sleeping. You can half them to fit your ear if you need to but I hear NOTHING when I have these in. People slamming doors? I don’t hear it. Someone using the ice machine? I don’t hear it. Highly recommend!
Vegpoet Reusable Silicone Ear Plugs 12 Pack
This is the best “travel pillow” I have found. It’s not bulky and it keeps my head from bobbing all over the place. Those normal neck pillows don’t fit my neck and take up so much valuable room in my carry on. This wraps around your neck and velcros ...
trtl Pillow Plus - Foam Neck Support Travel
I love bringing this on the road with me. I mix one scoop with water at night and sleep like a baby! Note: the berry flavor is my favorite!
PILLAR Performance Triple Magnesium Professional Recovery
My absolute FAVORITE eye mask. I have left two behind in hotel rooms and have reordered this twice now. So good and comfortable. I really like that it doesn’t press against your eyes!
Manta Sleep Mask - 100% Light Blocking, Adjustable, Detachable Eye Cups
A cheaper version sleep mask that I always carry just in case of emergencies. I HAVE to sleep with a sleep mask. You never know if the curtains close all the way if you get in late. Sleep is so important, making these a MUST HAVE!
3D Contoured Sleep Mask, 99% Light Block, Adjustable Strap (Grey)
Stay healthy while traveling! ⚕️
I am a flight attendant and years ago my ENT told me that anytime I am on the plane to do a nasal rinse when I get home. The only time I have gotten sick is when I hadn’t rinsed my sinuses after flying. Definitely recommend!
Sinus Rinse
If you love your a waterpik lover and hate that it’s just to big to bring on the road, here is your answer! This is the perfect travel size waterpik. Super compact and easy to use!
Mini Cordless Water Flosser Oral Irrigator
Highly recommend when traveling, if you are feeling “off”, if you have been around a lot of people. Just mix one scoop with water.
Sufficient-C 4000mg Vitamin C Lemon Peach
Things that just make life easier while traveling.
As much as I love a good physical copy of a book, they add to weight and space in my luggage. I love my kindle. Plus if you listen to audible and read the kindle, the kindle will pick up where you left off listening to the audible version!
Kindle Colorsoft, Scribe, Paperwhite & Kids
This one is great because of the long cord! Sometimes hotel rooms choose to put the outlet on the complete other side of the room… not often, but when it happens it’s not great. I always travel with this. Not only do my cords all go in one place, but...
One Beat 10ft Power Strip Surge Protector
I have a few of these and have gifted some too! Great way to get good coffee in your hotel, just need some hot water! It’s collapsible which really helps on saving much needed space in my bag!
Attsky Collapsible Pour Over Coffee Dripper Red
I really love this travel size mascara… I’ve been using it for years and it lasts. 12 hour day? No problem!

Great travel steamers for life on the road!
Best Travel Garment Steamers
When I’m flying I don’t like wearing a lot of makeup so I put this in my moisturizer before bed and wake up with a glowing face. I put a little tinted moisturizer on with SPF and some mascara and then I’m good to go.
Tanceuticals Self Tanning Drops - Face Tanner
I love taking a few of these on my trips to wash my face after a long day of traveling. I don’t love washing my face with the hotel washcloths, mainly because I don’t know what detergent they use, so these come in handy. They are single use, and you ...
GAINWELL 50-Count Natural Facial Sponges
Early morning flights and puffy eyes… these help out with that! They feel so good to put below your eyes. I like to put the larger portion next to my eye and let the skinnier portion fall below my eyes. Great to put on while you get ready or sip on y...
Enaskin Naturals Under Eye Patches 30 Pairs
If you are needing to wash something but only have a bathroom sink, these are your answer! So great for travel!
SinkSuds Travel Laundry Detergent 8 Pack
If you buy one thing, let these be it. These are a must have for your suitcase. Obviously you can use them for what they are intended for, protecting your hair from getting wet in the shower, but I use them for my shoes. I place one on the bottom of ...
Auban 100PCS Clear Disposable Shower Caps 20.5"
Traveling with something cold? Just fill this up with ice the night before and place into the freezer. It is great when I’m traveling with food I want to keep cold.
BICAREE Reusable Ice Pack 9" with Cover
I LOVE traveling with these. It’s a solid, so you don’t have to worry about the TSA liquid rule, they lather well, and they last a long time!
Earthling Co. Shampoo Bar - Hair Growth, Vegan, 3 oz
I always grab some of these for my bag! Great CLEAN way to dry your face at night without using the hotel towels!
Clean Skin Club Bamboo Viscose XL Towels, 50 Ct
If you fly frequently, this is a GREAT app to have on your phone. You can change your departure or arrival city and it shows every flight taking off or arriving. You can click on the flight number and it will give you more information, like your gate...
Flight Board
It gets so loud on the airplane, I love having these on hands. It dulls the noise but I can still hear conversations! Great for concerts or other loud plans!
High Fidelity Earplugs
My absolute favorite travel bag these days for walking around new cities. It packs up light and holds quite a bit. I love how it hangs.
Medium Nylon Crescent Bag
I just had passengers bring these on and it’s such an awesome idea!! It vacuum seals all of your clothes so you can fit more!
Backvac® Pro
Traveling with a Camper
This is a must have app if you are on the search for a campground to spend the night or nights at! We have used this for years!
Allstays Travel Apps Camping, Trucking and Road Warriors
This was a GAME CHANGER in our airstream. It fights right on the counter top by the sink and then will compact down so you can put away and drive. LOVE it.
