Don't let these mistakes steal your joy!

I am so happy to see the shelves stocked at the grocery store. I am so happy to be able to buy wipes, masks and hand sanitizer. For some reason those items on shelves make me feel a tad more secure.  Almost as if, just because they are there, I wont get Covid. I have NO idea why I feel that way. But, I do. Weird right? Do you feel that way too or is it just me?

As I am digging around in the internet crazy things pop up. Some things are ridiculous! And some things are just genius – including this Away Travel Wellness Kit . It has everything in it that makes me feel more secure and I fell in love. I thought you might love it too!

With everything happening around us right now wouldn't it be nice to have everything you need in 1 tiny, and amazingly beautiful, case? I just LOVE the case. (It comes in navy, blush, white and graphite).

The Away Travel Wellness Kit includes:

– Polycarbonate shell with zipper closure – Interior mesh pocket and elastic strap – Exterior D-ring (for attaching a key clip or keychain)

Size  7″ x 5″ x 3″ Weight  0.35lbs

The Kit – Hand Sanitizer (1 oz) – Anti-bacterial wet wipes (10 sheets) – Soap leaves (30 dissolvable sheets) – 1 Away x GIR Navy reusable silicone mask + 5 filters

I had to look up what a GIR reusable silicone mask was. It is a silicone mask that can be washed and re-used. The filters are single use.

PLUS I love the idea a dissolvable soap sheet. No need to carry about a bar of soap or even a bottle of soap that might leak. PLUS – no mess. Yay for no mess.

I love the TINY case too. It can fit in your car or your suitcase if you travel. 

Away Travel has a 100 day money back guarantee. You've got nothing to lose and everything to gain. 

Check out the Away Travel Wellness Kit . Might even make a great gift for someone on your list 🙂

PLUS – Away Travel has other mini's that you might just LOVE too – check them out .

BTW – when you click on one of these links, and make a purchase, I do make a small comission (at no additional cost to you). I would have told you about the Away Travel mini's regardless – I love them that much!

Away Designs Travel Wellness Kit For Those Still On The Road

Though nearly all of us are staying put due to the c-virus, the unfortunate truth is that some folks have to travel, whether it’s for essential work or a family emergency. Traveling already takes a toll on the body’s immune system in the best of times, but that risk is compounded by COVID-19, making airports, train stations, and bus depots toxic environments. 

Luggage brand Away became an Insta-darling for understanding travelers’ needs, and they also happen to know a thing or two about toxic environments . So while there isn’t much demand currently for their chic carry-ons, Away has adapted to the times, releasing a limited-edition kit designed to provide a buffer between travelers and the coronavirus.

Notably, Away highlights that the collection’s sleep mask, blanket and neck pillow are designed with 37.5 Technology , which utilizes dynamic thermoregulation technology to help keep your body at a core temperature of 37.5 degrees Celsius (99.5 degrees Fahrenheit). It also helps keep the microclimate next to your skin at the relative humidity of 37.5 percent. Brands like Adidas , Tommy Bahama and Carharrt also make products utilizing the tech.

The collection adds to Away’s Shopping reader favorites like suitcases , bags , packing cubes and passport holders . The new collection is available online and at Away’s retail locations.

Away’s Black Friday Luggage Sale Is Live

By Madison Flager

All products featured on Condé Nast Traveler are independently selected by our editors. However, when you buy something through our retail links, we may earn an affiliate commission.

Travelers looking for a luggage refresh are in luck: Away's Black Friday sale has begun, with up to 40 percent off of suitcases, bags, and travel accessories. The sale runs from Monday, November 22, through Cyber Monday, November 29. This is only the second-ever Cyber Week offering from Away, which was recently ranked as Traveler readers' favorite luggage brand in our annual Readers' Choice Awards.

Plenty of Away luggage favorites are included in the Cyber Week promo, from the brand's most popular product, The Bigger Carry-On , to newer additions like The Latitude Tote and The Longitude Tote —ideal personal items for plane travel—and the soft-sided Expandable Bigger Carry-On . There are also plenty of giftable items up for grabs, like The L-Fold Wallet in chestnut leather, The Dopp Kit , The Mini Everywhere Bag , and The Travel Wellness Kit , which comes with hand sanitizer, anti-bacterial wipes, soap leaves, and an Away x GIR reusable silicone mask, plus five face mask filters, all wrapped inside The Mini, Away's smallest (and cutest) piece of luggage.

Colorways vary in these deals—for some items, like The Expandable Medium and The Expandable Large suitcases, only one color is on sale (in the case of those two pieces, it's a cherry red that was part of a Serena Williams collection). Others, like The Bigger Carry-On , are available in plenty of hues for the time being. Shop early for the most choice in sale styles, and for the best chance of your shiny new luggage arriving before December holiday travel.

Below, we've rounded up a few of the Away luggage pieces we are most excited to see on sale. Shop more Black Friday deals right now at Away —and then use these Black Friday travel deals as an excuse to book your next trip.

The 12 Best Travel-sized Skincare Sets

We love Fenty Skin’s The Glow Around 4-piece Travel Skincare Essentials Set.

In This Article

• Our Top Picks
• Tips for Buying
• Why Trust T + L

35 Thousand

Despite all the (obvious) positives, traveling can wreak havoc on your skin. Among the culprits: new climates, indulgent food and drinks , fatigue, drying plane cabin air, and more. For this reason, you’ll want to pack a skincare regimen that counteracts these stressors as well as targets your unique everyday needs regardless of the location.

To help you choose the best travel kit for your next adventure , we researched and rounded up selections that address a variety of circumstances and skin concerns, and fall under the TSA 3-1-1 guidelines . Our overall favorite, Fenty Skin’s The Glow Around 4-piece Travel Skincare Essentials Set, stands out for its consolidated product lineup with multifunctional items, a reasonable price point, and the versatility to be used on nearly any type of skin. But, if you want to target specific concerns or environmental stressors, read on. We’ve culled the best items for a multitude of scenarios.

These are the best travel skincare sets to shop:

Best Overall

Fenty skin the glow around 4-piece travel skincare essentials set.

Multiple products in this vegan kit do double duty, and SPF is included.

If you prefer an even more minimalistic travel skin routine, shop the brand’s three-piece set instead.

We’ve long been traveling with Fenty Beauty products in tow, and this skincare assembly — featuring standouts from Rihanna’s Fenty Skin line — is our number one pick. The vegan set, suited for normal, dry, combination, and oily skin types, includes four miniature skincare products: an antioxidant-packed cleanser, a toner-serum hybrid, a moisturizer with sun protection, and an AHA exfoliator with a reusable applicator. It has just a little more than the bare necessities to help combat travel-induced skin stress, but it’s not excessive either; it’ll all easily fit inside a clear quart-sized bag, and won’t break the bank.

We especially love that multiple products in the kit do double duty. The 1.5-ounce Total Cleans’r face wash easily wipes away dirt, oil, and makeup, eliminating the need to pack a separate makeup-removing product. The lightweight 1-ounce Hydra Vizor moisturizer contains SPF 30 and also works well as a primer. Furthermore, the moisturizer’s pump-style container is extra sanitary for travel (so you’re not transferring any germs from your fingers into a product tub). For those who prefer a more minimal routine, the brand also offers a three-piece version of the travel kit (sans exfoliator), which comes with a trial-sized body cream.

Best Overall, Runner-up

35thousand all the radiance set.

Four full-sized products (1.7 ounces each) including an SPF 30 serum and bamboo washcloth come in a clear zip case.

It’s on the more expensive side for the size.

If you’ve never heard of 35thousand, it’s a skincare line that was made for travel — literally. All of the brand’s products are travel-friendly in terms of size, containers, and the skin concerns they address. The set is more of a splurge, but that’s because each product in this vegan kit was carefully designed to function in place of multiple other products. For example, the makeup-removing cleansing balm can double as a hydration mask when left on skin for 10-20 minutes. Or, try the refreshing and toning mist in place of water (along with the cleanser) if you don’t have access to a sink.

We love that the day serum includes SPF 30 and a subtle tint hint for added glow while on the move, and the hyaluronic acid-rich cream delivers much needed hydration. The best part? The items come housed in a clear zip case (with room for a few more products) and there’s a mini bamboo washcloth which comes in a smaller zip case to keep it separate from the rest of your stash.

Best for Sensitive Skin

Ren clean skincare evercalm skin zen trio.

Natural ingredients like plant oils can help soothe delicate skin.

You may want to consult your dermatologist first if your skin is highly sensitive.

If your skin tends to be fickle, you may want to follow a less-is-more approach to your routine. Enter this three-piece system, which includes only the essentials. The ultra-gentle cleansing milk is the perfect wash for delicate skin, and the kit follows that with a calming cream for daytime and a recovery balm with an intensely nourishing barrier for bedtime. Even if you don’t generally have sensitive skin, travel conditions (such as plane cabins, new climates, and bedsheet fabrics you’re not used to) can cause your skin to flare up on vacation, and these soothing products featuring sea buckthorn berry, jojoba, and sunflower seed oils can be a welcome relief.

Best for Combination Skin

Caudalie vinoperfect brightening solution set.

The oil-free gel moisturizer is great for warmer climates.

If you prefer a more matte finish, you might not love the pearlescent moisturizer.

Designed to target uneven skin texture, this three-piece set includes a gentle glycolic essence (which the brand recommends applying with a cotton round after cleansing), a dark spot serum (to be used on face, neck, and décolleté), and a brightening moisturizer (to be slathered on morning and night, after serum application). The oil-free moisturizer has a lightweight gel texture, which makes it a great companion for trips to warmer climates. It also has pearlescent minerals which deliver an immediate visible glow to skin.

Best for Oily Skin

Priori the clear skin now kit.

This no-fuss routine is aimed at clearing and soothing blemish-prone skin.

To avoid possible irritation, start slow with the gel perfector only. 

If your skin tends to break out under stress, you’ll need targeted products to combat the effects of a change in daily routine. This small-but-mighty set includes a two-week supply of skincare essentials designed to offer blemish control and clear oily skin. The first step is a calming lactic acid cleanser, which is still tough enough to remove eye makeup. Next comes a salicylic acid gel perfector aimed at balancing oily skin that can lead to breakouts, and that doubles as a mattifying primer. (The brand recommends starting usage at a few times a week to see how your skin reacts and before bumping up to daily application.) Finally, there’s an oil-free, silky-smooth replenishing moisturizer, which can also be used post sunburn to soothe skin.

Best for Dry Skin

Biossance miracle moisture set.

Four squalene-packed products work in tandem to help target parched skin.

The set does not include a cleanser or a product with SPF.

Plane cabins are practically synonymous with dry skin. That’s because an aircraft’s filtration system — which takes in outside air and circulates it in the cabin — causes humidity to drop well below what is comfortable for most people. Each of the four steps in this routine (a soothing eye cream, a plumping serum, a rich moisturizer, and a finishing Vitamin C oil) contain squalane , an ingredient said to have powerful hydrating properties. Not only is the kit a good fit for anyone with naturally drier skin or who may be experiencing abnormal dryness due to time of year or destination climates, but it can be great to boost lost moisture due to the flight alone. We love that this set includes a really creamy eye product, since delicate eye-area skin might need a little extra love after an aptly monikered red-eye flight .

Best for Normal Skin

Olehenriksen find your glow brightening skincare set.

Packed with vitamin C, these products can help brighten dull, travel-stressed skin.

This set does not include SPF, and you’ll want to layer some of top of any areas where PHAs were applied. 

If your skin isn’t fussy, you can focus your routine on products that target long-term skin concerns. Olehenriksen’s four-piece set is anchored by the hero ingredient Vitamin C , which can treat photoaging and hyperpigmentation. An orange fruit water-based daily cleanser, a Vitamin C serum, a nourishing gel cream, and a color-correcting eye cream are designed to help improve luminosity, which can certainly suffer when we put our skin through the stress of traveling. The weightless-feeling gel is cool to the touch, making this set ideal for warmer-weather locations — but don’t forget to pack SPF for vital sun protection, which is not included in this kit.

Best for Lips

Fresh sugar collection lip care set.

These tiny lip balms deliver moisture and a variety of subtle colors.

Depending on the length of your trip, you may not need five different options.

We’ve talked a lot about skin dryness due to travel, but don’t neglect your parched pout. Fresh’s cult-favorite Sugar lip products are famous for delivering moisture along with subtle, buildable color. They’ll do double duty on your next trip by replenishing chapped lips and potentially replacing any lipsticks you might have considered packing. 

This five-piece set includes mini versions of the brand’s best-selling colorless Advanced Therapy lip treatment (a must-have to combat drying plane cabin air), refreshing and softening Mint Rush, and three buildable tinted balms. The color balms — in rosé (a rosy pink), honey (a warm terracotta), and petal (a nude blush) — deliver a subtle tint with one swipe and a deeper shade when layered. If you don’t feel like carrying five lip products, the brand also makes a three-piece set .

Best for Eyes

Charlotte tilbury recovery skin set.

A cult-favorite cream is coupled with two soothing, hydrating serums.

This set is best suited for normal and dry skin types and does not include any cleansing products or SPF.

Jet lag, lack of sleep on red-eye flights, and more can all add up to dryness and redness around the eye area while jet setting. Charlotte Tilbury’s Recovery Skin Set is designed to restore hydration and plumpness with its trio of soothing products. Included is a half-ounce container of the celebrity-loved brand ’s cult-favorite hyaluronic acid-based Magic Cream, a mini serving of a lightweight Vitamin C serum, and a depuffing eye serum containing caffeine. We especially love the eye serum because it has a metal applicator tip which delivers a cooling sensation to your eye area when applied.

Best for In-flight Use

Shielded beauty self defense system set.

We keep these moisturizing minis close while in the air to replenish skin mid-flight.

You’ll need to pack other skincare items for a full routine as this set only has a hydrating mist, facial moisturizer, and hand and body lotion.

Plane cabins are notoriously harsh on skin and just a couple of hours in the air can leave your epidermis feeling parched. Whenever we fly, we love to keep a teeny bottle of hydrating mist — such as the soothing and energizing spritz in this three-piece kit — handy for a little mid-flight refresh. You can even apply it over makeup. Equally essential: the hand and body lotion which can aid any exposed body skin pre-, mid-, and post-flight and the nourishing facial moisturizer. Designed to protect skin against environmental elements, this set is also ideal for packing for new climates that your skin isn’t accustomed to.

Best for Warmer Climates

Image skincare ready, set, discover set.

A minimalistic skincare routine means more time for soaking in your trip .

If you prefer a more radiant finish on your beauty products, the mattifying moisturizer might not be your favorite.

When outdoor activities are on the itinerary, sun protection should be at the top of your packing list (yes, even in colder locations). With ingredients designed to hydrate and brighten — plus SPF — Image Skincare’s three-item set is a great low-fuss find for beach or warm-weather vacations. It starts with a mild cleanser, which is followed by a hydrating and brightening hyaluronic acid- and Vitamin C-packed serum. The last step, a mattifying moisturizer, offers SPF 30 sun protection. A bonus: The products come in a reusable TSA-friendly clear zip case that gives you one less thing to think about while packing for your next adventure.

Best for Colder Climates

Glossier the skincare edit.

The kit comes with two of Glossier’s cult-favorite lip balm minis.

None of the included products have any SPF. 

Cold, dry air can quickly lead to skin dryness and redness as well as chapped lips. If you’re traveling to a climate that’s chillier than you’re used to, Glossier’s Skincare Edit set could be a great companion. It includes mini versions of the brand’s makeup-removing Milky Jelly Cleanser, the hydrating Super Bounce Serum (which they recommend pressing 3-4 drops gently into skin after cleansing), a shea- and murumuru-butter-rich moisturizer (which doubles as a primer), and Futuredew (an oil-serum hybrid that should be applied as the last step in your skincare routine, after sunscreen). We love that this kit also gives you two Balm Dotcom lip balms (one non-tinted and one barely-there pink), which will certainly come in handy if your lips dry out when temperatures drop. A bonus: it includes a nylon-spandex headband that's ideal for washing your face, and everything comes in a molded, recyclable paper case.

Tips for Buying Travel-sized Skincare Kits

Prioritize portability.

When traveling, especially via plane, you’ll want your skincare regimen to follow certain guidelines. First, anything going in your carry-on should adhere to the TSA’s 3-1-1 rule (all liquids, gels, and aerosols must be in containers of 3.4 ounces or less and should all fit into a single, clear quart-sized bag). You’ll also want to minimize the number of products you’re hauling as much as possible, per the quart-sized bag. 

Consider your usual skin concerns and the climate at your destination

You’ll also want to think about the specific stressors your skin will be exposed to on your trip and stock up on products that can help combat those: Will you be spending ample time in the sun? Are you entering drying, cold weather? Will you be wearing more makeup than usual? These are all things to take into consideration when shopping for products to pack for your next vacation.

How to Make Your Own Travel Wellness Kit to Stay Healthy While Traveling

Traveling during the holidays? Here’s how to stay healthy.

By: Lexy Parsons

The holiday season is upon us, and for many, that means travel is in our future. According to survey data , more than 80% of all Americans will travel by the end of the year.

Ahead, we’re sharing how to optimize your wellness while traveling, including how to build a DIY travel wellness kit that will help you survive and thrive through the holidays , with tips on supporting mental health too!

Build Your DIY Travel Wellness Kit: The Best Travel-Sized Items to Keep You Healthy on Your Trip

Based on the categories below, here’s how to build a travel-friendly wellness kit. Including:

• Diet essentials for travel
• Exercise must-haves
• Sleep support items
• Stress-reducing travel necessities 
• Immune-boosting travel items

For Your Nutrition 

Fiton sustainable water bottle.

Wondering why you get so dry when you travel by plane? While it can be due to a lack of fluid intake on travel days, the lower humidity in the air is mostly to blame. It can quickly instigate fluid loss and cause dehydration, which can take a toll on your immune system. Carrying a reusable water bottle — like the FitOn Hydrate Me Bottle — not only reduces the need for expensive bottled water while on the go, but also ensures you have a convenient and eco-friendly way to stay adequately hydrated.

Plus, there are so many single-serve beverage packets you can pack alongside your water bottle, including:

• Four Sigmatic Chai Latte with Reishi Mushroom
• Om Mushroom Superfood Coffee Latte Blend
• Vital Proteins Get Up and Glow Collagen & Vitamin C Packets
• Bare Bones Instant Bone Broth Packets
• Aiya Ceremonial-Grade Matcha Packets
• Primal Kitchen Vanilla Coconut Collagen Peptide Drink

Electrolyte Packs

Beneficial for gut health, hydration, and overall cell functioning, electrolyte packs can be a traveler’s best friend, especially during long journeys. They play a crucial role in maintaining your body’s balance of essential minerals — such as sodium, potassium, and magnesium — helping you avoid electrolyte imbalances due to changes in diet, activity levels, or climates during your travels. 

Quality brands (with travel-friendly single-serve packs) include: LMNT , Ultima , and CURE .

If you could only pack one supplement in your holiday travel kit, you’ll want to prioritize probiotics . They help to regulate digestion, strengthen the gut’s barrier against pathogens , and support the immune system, thereby boosting overall health. Plus, considering this time of year often involves indulgent foods and sweet treats, probiotics are particularly crucial for supporting the gut microbiome during holiday season travel! 

However, while supplements are great, don’t forget about probiotic-rich foods ! If you’re traveling to a new area, check out the local markets for probiotic-rich foods like yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and tempeh — you can often find small vendors for these staples.

Healthy Travel Snacks

Skip the airport food and drive-throughs. Instead, grab some travel-friendly snacks! Foods like nuts, seeds, whole food bars, and whole-grain crackers are among some of the items that can help boost your energy levels and curb cravings.

Here are some wellness-inspired grab-and-go snacks to pack:

• Raw honey sticks or pouches
• Grass-fed beef or turkey sticks 
• Wild Planet wild-caught salmon or tuna to-go pouches
• Single-serve nut and seed butter packets
• Once Upon a Farm cold-pressed fruit and veggie smoothie pouches
• Second Nature raw nut and seed trail mix snack packs
• GimMe roasted seaweed snacks
• Wonderful pistachio packs
• EPIC keto protein bars
• RXBar protein bars
• Purely Elizabeth collagen or prebiotic fiber oat cups

For Your Immune System

Beekeepers propolis throat relief spray.

Rich in properties that can help soothe a sore or irritated throat (like potent antioxidants and antimicrobials), Beekeepers Propolis throat relief spray is a travel must-have. Thanks to nutrients like zinc and vitamins B, C, and D, it’s a great travel hack to help bolster your defenses, especially in the colder months during peak cold and flu season.

Hand Sanitizer

Between crowded airports, public transport, and busy tourist areas, hand sanitizer is a non-negotiable travel item for a healthy immune system. It can significantly reduce the risk of infection and help maintain your health during this busy season. Plus, it slips perfectly into any purse or travel bag without notice.

Plant Therapy Immune Aid Essential Oil Blend

Made with fresh and invigorating essential oils like Frankincense , Lemon , Sweet Orange , Tea Tree , Eucalyptus , and Rosemary , the ingredients in this blend have been shown to modulate the immune system and reduce inflammation. Make a DIY essential oil spray or mix a few drops with your favorite carrier oil or skin care lotion and massage it into your body.

Beekeepers Propolis + Vitamin C

The ultimate immune-boosting duo: 100mg of bee propolis and 1,000mg of vitamin C. Better absorbed by the body, liposomal vitamin C ensures maximum bioavailability, allowing your body to benefit from all of the immune-boosting qualities. Propolis, a natural powerhouse, provides antioxidants, zinc, iron, B vitamins, and over 300 other beneficial compounds, including flavonoids and polyphenols that combat oxidative stress and free radicals. Additionally, the presence of vitamin C further fortifies your immune system and contributes to muscle recovery and vibrant skin by supporting healthy collagen levels.

For Your Sleep

Fiton silk sleep mask.

Practical and portable self-care. Considering adequate shuteye is a necessity for both immune support and overall well-being, our FitOn silk sleep mask is an integral travel necessity. It will help enhance your sleep quality and duration during travel, which will, in turn, help to bolster your defenses and help your body fend off pathogens and travel-related stressors.

Earplugs & Headphones

Want some peace and quiet during a long flight or while traveling in congested areas? You’ll want to pack earplugs or noise-canceling headphones when building your travel wellness kit. Research suggests that exposure to loud noises can increase stress levels and disturb sleep, which may weaken your immune system’s ability to fight off illnesses. So, by creating a tranquil environment, earplugs and headphones can help reduce stress, promote better sleep, and enhance your overall travel wellness.

Weighted Travel Blanket

Offering comfort, relaxation, and stress relief, packing a weighted blanket can come in handy during travel. Thought to help reduce stress and anxiety , weighted blankets can help enhance your well-being leading to increased resilience and a stronger immune system.

For Your Body

Fiton travel foam roller.

No matter if you’re commuting by plane or car, a compact foam roller can be a game-changing tool for releasing muscle tension and improving circulation after long hours of sitting. It’s lightweight, compact, and can encourage you to stay moving and mobile throughout the busy holiday season.

Compression Socks

Prone to edema or fluid retention while traveling? Research has shown that wearing compression socks can help improve blood circulation and alleviate the discomfort of swollen legs during long periods of sitting, such as during flights or car rides. By aiding in blood flow and supporting circulation, you can indirectly support the immune system, ensuring nutrients and oxygen reach the body’s tissues.

An essential companion for travelers, particularly during the cold and dry months, hand cream can lock in hydration and moisture and prevent dry, cracked skin. Aside from the physical comfort (no one likes flaky, dry skin), well-moisturized skin is important for maintaining a strong immune system which provides a strong external barrier against pathogens.

A simple yet crucial item for your DIY wellness travel kit. By protecting your lips from environmental stressors — especially in dry or cold conditions — you can prevent chapping, discomfort, and potential infections. Opt for a multi-use Chapstick like Cocokind MyMatcha stick — it can be used for chapped lips, dark undereye circles, and areas of dry skin!

Under-Eye Gels

Under-eye gels can be a soothing addition to your travel self-care routine. Not only do they work wonders in diminishing puffiness and banishing those dark under-eye circles, but the mere act of dedicating a few minutes to self-care serves as a gentle reminder to pause, reconnect with your inner self, and take a moment for mindfulness. Their cool, refreshing application makes them perfect for planes, long car rides, or when you have a few minutes to lay down and rest.

For Your Mental Health

Travel journal.

To support your mind and mental health while traveling, pack a journal and pen! It will give you a place to jot down your thoughts, release any pent-up emotions (that are bound to surface during extended time with friends or family ), and clear your head. Plus, it’s a great way to document and reflect upon your travel experiences in a mindful way. A healthy mind supports a healthy body!

Stress Ball

No matter if you’re carrying physical or emotional tension, a travel stress ball is a simple and compact tool that can help support you during your holiday travels. Think of it as a hand exercise for stress — by gripping it, you can help melt built-up physical tension and stress in your muscles and joints while also dissipating mental tension by stimulating blood flow and increasing endorphins. Plus, it’s easy to slip into large pockets, your purse, or a carry-on bag.

FitOn App for Meditation & Mindfulness

Before you hit the road, sign up for FitOn PRO to gain access to our library full of stress-busting meditations and breathwork exercises. From sleep-supporting Yoga Nidra meditations to simple breathing exercises to meditations and tools designed to bust stress and support your mental health, meditation is one of the best travel tools shown to support your overall health.

Forgot to Pack a Wellness Kit? The Best Airport Alternatives to Keep You Healthy

If you forget to assemble your DIY travel wellness kit — don’t worry! Many airports offer a slew of wellness-inspired products for health and comfort while on the go. 

Look for the following options:

• Healthy airport vending machines, such as Farmer’s Fridge
• Healthier food chains, such as Starbucks , where you can grab a protein bento snack box
• Nutrient-dense snacks at the Newstand, such as fresh fruit, raw nuts, or whole foods-based protein bars
• Immune-supportive products like honey drops or herbal teas
• Dairy-free milk alternatives when ordering coffee or lattes off the menu
• Compression socks or neck pillows
• Hand cream, lip balm, or body lotion to prevent dry, cracked skin
• Essential oil sprays or fragrance-free hand sanitizer

Prioritize Your Wellness While Packing!

While travel stress isn’t always avoidable, building a proactive tool kit can help alleviate certain stressors before they arise. From sleep masks to nutrient-dense snacks to recovery tools, we’ve got you covered with all the necessities to support your mental, physical, and emotional well-being on the go. Of course, this isn’t a cure-all solution. However, by staying healthy and building your defenses, you can make the most of your travel experiences and end the year on a strong note!

Can I share my kit with family members?

The Wellness Company only offers emergency kits that are prescribed to the specific individual to whom the medication is intended. The prescribed medications take into account the individual’s medical status based on the clinical intake form, including any noted allergies. All medications have potential for allergic reactions and other adverse effects. Therefore, it is crucial to not allow others to use medications that were not prescribed for them. The emergency medications should be handled with the same caution as any other prescription medication prescribed by a physician. It is important to adhere to the prescribed usage guidelines and avoid sharing the kit with family members unless explicitly advised to do so by a healthcare professional.

Does The Wellness Company accept HSA or FSA cards?

While The Wellness Company generally accepts HSA (Health Savings Account) cards, it's important to check with your insurance provider before attempting to use your card.

We encourage you to verify with your insurance provider regarding their guidelines and coverage for using HSA cards.

What is the shelf-life of medications within The Wellness Company Travel Emergency Kit?

The FDA requires pharmacies to label prescription medications with an expiration date, which can be found on the prescription included in your kit. While the duration of the expiration date can vary depending on the medication and formulation, most medications, including antibiotics, commonly have a shelf life of around 2 years. To optimize the shelf life of medications, it is generally recommended to store them in air-tight containers in a cool and dry environment. However, it is important to note that storage requirements can vary for different medications, so it is advisable to consult with your healthcare professional regarding proper storage conditions.

Information about the FDA’s Shelf-Life Extension Program may be found within the Guidebook (included within the kit) and at the following link below:

Travel Wellness Kit: How To Take Care Of Yourself On The Road

• February 14, 2021

Traveling becomes uncomfortable, expensive and loses its shine when you are unwell on the road. This travel wellness kit will help minimize all of these discomforts and inconveniences so you can focus on being in the moment and enjoying your time in this special destination.

Staying well while traveling is always important, but it’s even more paramount when you are a digital nomad or backpacker – anyone traveling for months on end. Poor food choices and loose health habits compound to affect your experience greatly.

Do you love traveling? Maybe the digital nomad lifestyle is for you! Learn how you can take steps to become a digital nomad today.

3 Factors That Will Impact How You Stay Healthy While Traveling

1. your budget.

And I’m not just referring to your food budget – your overall daily spending budget will impact your health all around.

The amount of money you spend on accommodation will impact if you have access to a kitchen or not. Likewise, the amount of money you have budgeted for daily food will have a huge impact on the quality of meals.

You cannot completely avoid these limitations: your budget is your budget, and it’s better to be prepared with a travel wellness kit and be able to travel cheaper for longer.

2. Dietary Restrictions

Avoiding dairy, gluten, non-Kosher foods, meat (my personal dietary restriction) or any other food group will affect your diet significantly.

3. Where You’re Traveling

Access to nutritious food will vary greatly based on where you’re traveling, what is naturally occuring in the region and what the local culture cultivates as their standard cuisine.

It’s something to keep in mind as you map out long-term travel and plan out how to maintain your health on the road.

Travel Wellness Kit: Health Maintenance Items 

I’ve broken this travel wellness kit into two parts: maintenance items and reaction items. You won’t necessarily need to pack all of these items for every trip, but these suggestions will give you a foundation to pull from.

1. Single Kitchen Knife With Sheath

A big challenges with eating fresh food while traveling is the lack of kitchen amenities.

Finding a hostel or hotel with a kitchen will be rare, depending on what part of the world you’re in. When I was backpacking in Latin America, it was only once or twice a month that I had access to any kitchen basics.

Because of this, carrying a few basics in your travel wellness kit will be a game-changer.

I recommend an actual kitchen knife over a pocket knife because it can keep things more sanitary and the blade is the right size for the job. This can make broccoli, sweet peppers, carrots, etc. snackable.

When you pick up something fresh at a market or grocery store, now you can easily do something with it!

I wouldn’t recommend spending a lot of money on a fancy knife in case you accidentally leave it in your carry-on bag going through and airport and it’s confiscated.

Kitchen Knife with Sheath Cover on Amazon

2. Produce Bags

I wish I had these bags with me in Latin America, where huge markets were overflowing with fresh fruits and veggies.

The obstacle with eating fresh food right from the market: the food isn’t washed, and odds are there won’t be a strainer at the hostel to wash everything.

This may seem extra, but hear me out:

Say you want to take some delicious fresh blueberries on a long bus ride : how are you going to clean them? Handful by handful in the bus terminal bathroom? And then load up all of the rinsed blueberries back into the plastic bag that they came in?

I’ve been there, and it’s a mess.

Produce bags are mesh and food can be washed directly through the bag . The food also keeps better in the mesh bags because the water dries and they have fresh air, unlike a plastic bag (which should always be avoided anyway).

The bags are also virtually weightless and take up almost no space. I’ll never travel again without a few in my pack. You may be able to find mesh produce bags at your local grocery store, or they can be bought on Amazon .

3. Multivitamins

I’m not a healthcare professional, and this is not medical advice! Just so ya know.

Your body will not always get the right nutrients when you’re traveling. I think that’s almost a guarantee of traveling.

During my first big trip traveling through Latin America as a digital nomad , I didn’t pack any vitamins. I was on a tight budget and went days or weeks without a meal having vegetables that weren’t deep-fried.

I felt worse and worse as the weeks passed, and halfway through the trip, I bought vitamins. The improvement was such a contrast to how meh I’d been feeling for months.

I had more energy, my stomach functioned more regularly, I had fewer colds. I will never travel again without a supply of vitamins that lasts the whole trip. Seriously: this is an essential part of your travel wellness kit.

A packing tip for handling bottles: to make the bottles take up less space, empty them into Ziplock bags and label them with the information that you need to remember.

While we’re talking about vitamins .. Does vitamin B really keep mosquitoes away? 

One of the vitamins my doctor recommended for me was vitamin B, and it just so happens that some people believe B makes you unappealing to mosquitoes. It was recommended to us in the Amazon to take B to help minimize exposure to malaria.

Before taking daily vitamins, I was a mosquito magnet. I would sit down and have 12 new bites while my husband sitting right next to me had none. After I started taking vitamin B, the tables turned and the mosquitoes bit him much more than me.

If you search on Google you’ll quickly see that the theory isn’t scientifically proven, but I had luck with it. 

If you consult with your doctor and they say you could benefit from taking vitamin B, it may help you on your travels through high mosquito zones!

4. Water Bottle

Conscious water intake should be a goal for you on your travels, and a bottle that suits your needs is an important part of your travel wellness kit:

• Looking for the most size-efficient bottle? Something collapsible is probably best for you
• Need something higher capacity? A hydration pack will fit your needs better
• Traveling somewhere without drinkable tap water? A wide-mouth bottle and a UV-light sterilizer will be your friend (you can read more about these specific tools in my sustainable travel packing list )

Before my first-ever overnight hiking trip, B-Man from REI (a famous source of information at the Pittsburgh REI on the Southside) gave me this advice for staying hydrated : begin every day by drinking water until you pee, and then fill up your bottle and get on the trail. Then, do the same at every water fill-up throughout the day.

This was advice specific to staying hydrated with a limited water supply where you’re dependant on refilling your bottle from streams along the trail, but it’s great advice for traveling as well.

Travel Wellness Kit: Reaction Items

5. first aid kit.

I won’t spell out every item that you should have in your first aid kit, because you can read the detailed list here: just in case travel kit . But I would be remiss to not mention the importance of including first aid items in your travel wellness kit.

Things will always go wrong along your travels, and even if they somehow don’t wrong for you, I reckon you’ll encounter someone who needs a bandage along the way.

6. Liquid IV

Liquid IV is a hydration multiplier, which is a fancy way of saying that it takes a normal bottle of water and multiplies its effect. It’s a powder that dissolves in your water. It’s a great addition to your travel wellness kit because it’s small, disappears into you bag when you don’t need it and will be there to save the day when you do need it.

Use Liquid IV to stay hydrated on long bus rides or any travel scenario where you won’t have access to a bathroom for extended periods of time.

My longest bus ride ever was 27 hours in Peru, with no stops for food or water. By the time we arrived in Cusco, I felt so sick from dehydration; I would’ve given you a kidney for a Liquid IV.

Be sure to also one Liquid IV in your first aid kit for every person in your group. Use Liquid IV to treat dehydration, help recover from stomach hugs, etc.

7. Vaseline

I had a dermatologist tell me once, “ we tell most patients to go home, put some Vaseline on it, and then call us again in 3 days if they’re still having trouble. And about half of them don’t call .”

Bug bites, rashes, sunburn, harsh soaps used to wash the sheets you’re sleeping on: irritating stuff happens to your skin when you’re traveling. Vaseline calls themselves “the healing jelly,” which in my experience is spot on.

These travel-size Vaseline tubs are sized just right: they’re sized to take in your carry-on, and are small enough to stash one away in every bag.

How do you take care of yourself when you’re on the road? Which items in this travel wellness kit will you never leave without?
