Travel-Size Essentials

                                
We travel quite often so I have a toiletry bag that's always packed with travel size products for when we decide to take off for a weekend trip or even a longer vacation. While I'm known to over pack in the clothing and shoes department, I have my toiletry selection under control. Other than the basic necessities like toothpaste, shampoo & conditioner, deodorant and a razor, these are some of the other essentials I take with me on vacation (in travel-size).



 A few other travel-size things that I also pack are dry shampoo, body spray/perfume, hand sanitizer, a good quality chapstick, and aloe vera (for tropical destinations).

When it comes to getting adequate sleep on vacation, I usually also bring along some melatonin for those restless nights. Until recently when I tried ZzzQuil Nighttime Sleep-Aid (sample from Influenster). I went out and bought a full pack because it helps you fall asleep within 20 minutes and doesn't leave you feeling groggy the next morning.



I've talked about being a non-morning-person before, probably because I'm the exact opposite and prefer to stay up late but that isn't practical when you have a 8-5 pm gig and need to be up at the crack of dawn. So I really like how ZzzQuil helps you sleep soundly for about 7-8 hours. The best part is the ingredients are non-habit forming because it's solely made for sleep and not for pain or sickness. While I wouldn't take this every night, I definitely need it from time to time when the night owl in me decides to come out to play.


I received a sample packet of ZzzQuil Sleep-Aid complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.  The review above is my true and honest opinion. #ZzzQuil, #SleepLovers, #ad, #gotitfree @Influenster

  2. I do the same thing in terms of having a toiletry bag packed and ready to go just in case! I like to keep ear plugs (the silicone ones that mold to your ears) in there too just in case it's loud where we are!! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston

  10. I keep a little stash of travel size items too for such the occasion. I love the little face washes because that is how I try out new ones so I don't commit to a full bottle! I have bug spray everywhere right now...our house, both cars, a travel bag. Gotta keep that Zika away!

  11. We're totally alike! I'm all about keeping a thing of toiletries ready to go in my overnight bag! We travel too often for me to have to deal with packing them all the time!

  18. i am definitely a morning person, but i really struggle getting to sleep sometimes, which makes me not a morning person when i slept like crap lol. i'll have to check that stuff out. also, i am a pro with clothes and whatnot, but i suck at toiletries when it comes to travel. i throw everything i own in and don't use half of it. one day i will conquer it lol
