Carry-on Essentials

Hi everyone,

With a vacation to Europe in less than a week, I am starting to pack. While most people may find packing tedious and stressful, I enjoy the whole process. One of the most essential parts of my luggage is the carry-on. This small bag you can bring on the plane carries important items to ensure your travel goes smoothly. I’ve composed a list of my essentials to include in my carry-on on any trip big or small.

1. Yes to Cucumbers Facial Towelettes
Just before we are about to descend I wipe my face and re-apply moisturizer.

2. Evian mineral water spray
When my skin is feeling parched I spritz the face mist on and feel instantly hydrated.

3. Sleeping Mask (One below is from Dream Essentials)
This is great for the plane and/or a bright hotel room. No matter how tired I am on a plane, I need a sleep mask to help ensure I get enough shuteye. It helps block out lights and those other passengers who like to flip the window shade up in the middle of a dark cabin.

4. Large scarf (This one is from Wilfred)
I love an oversized scarf it is a great versatile piece. You can use it traditionally or if you get chilly on the plane it can be a throw.

5. Marshall Monitor Headphones
I look forward to catching up with movies or TV shows on the plane whether on my iPad or the selection provided by the airline. I need a good pair that covers my ears and blocks out noise.
