What's In My Travel Pouch ✈️

If you're an avid traveler, you'll appreciate that my favorite thing to pack with carry-on are pouches for my in-flight or on-train skincare routine and essentials. In the past I've forgotten to pack underwear, but my skincare pouch is always perfectly jet set ready to go. My skin tends to feel dry during elevation and I believe that it shows when you arrive to your destination. It makes for a better arrival if you're feeling and looking good. All in all, organization is key to becoming a traveler of the world.

Baggu

BAGGU * 3D ZIP POUCHES SET OF 3 * $36

Baggu’s 3-pack pouches are perfect for traveling and everyday life. From three sensible sizes, the largest one can even fit a pair of shoes. I usually pack face sheet masks and my collapsible coffee cup in the large one, along with other necessities such as a pair of socks and a mini hairbrush. Skincare items pack nicely into the medium size and the smallest fits my phone, iPad chargers.

PACIFICA * GLOWING MAKEUP REMOVER WIPES IN ORANGE SCENT 30ct * $6.29

Facial and hand wipes are a necessity when traveling. I need to feel refreshed so even while I’m seated, I’m able to restart my skincare routine before landing. These wipes are great, normally don’t prefer scented, but let’s be real, being on a plane with strangers you’re going to want a nice, citrus aroma.

Frame Denim
COSRX

COSRX * All About Snail Kit * $25

SULWHASOO * MINI FIRST CARE ACTIVATING SERUM * $25

This serum makes my entire face feels firm and hydrated. Sulwhasoo products are paraben-free and this travel size is the key to keeping up appearances and hides the fact that you just boarded off a 6 hour redeye flight.

Biodance sheet masks

BIODANCE * HYDRO CERA-NOL REAL DEEP MASK 4 PACK * $19

This has been my go-to sheet mask for years now, because it simply improves the state of my skin and texture. Also, it’s important that during flight you choose a face or sheet mask that doesn’t frighten your seat neighbor.

SAIE * MINI SUNVISOR RADIANT MOISTURIZING FACE SUNSCREEN SPF 35 * $16

During travels I pack normal size sunscreen in my luggage and the travel size inside my pouches. I like this one because it feels lightweight on the skin and doesn’t dry out or irritate my skin or eyes.

Made with organic unrefined sugar, Himalayan pink salt, the ingredients are clean and tastes delicious If you love dalgona coffee, this is it in an instant coffee version. The best news is that these instant latte packets already come with powdered vegan milk, so all you have to bother the flight attendant for is a bottled water.

STOJO * COLLAPSIBLE TRAVEL CUP * $14.99 12oz

Instead of using the airline’s paper beverage cups, I like to bring my own sustainable cup and Stojo’s collapsible to-go cup comes with me almost everywhere. When I’ve rinsed it, from the top I push it down so that it fits into my pouch.
