Promising review: "I have oily skin and I use this as a night moisturiser with my serums. I wake up with soft skin, no oil or residue. It has no smell. It has a bit of a stickiness that disappears quickly because it sinks straight into the skin. If, like me, you don’t kill the snails who eat your plants, then they owe you this in return. A great skin product. And you use such a small amount that it lasts a long time." — CMM1984

As someone that's editing videos, vlogging or using tech constantly while overseas (or at home), I'm always worried about bringing the right cables, where I put my SD cards and if I have the right outlets for the place that I'm visiting. This pouch has so many nooks in assorted sizes to store everything that I could need, tech-wise, for a trip. It can fit headphones, big charging outlets, multiple cable stacks and more — all in the one place. Less incidents of frantically hunting for random cables in my suitcase at 11pm.
Buy it from Orbitkey for $109.90.

One of the worst things is losing something with sentimental value on a trip. So, before you take your favourite jewellery off and throw them loosely into your bag on a beach day — chuck them in one of these instead. Pack your hair ties, mini shampoo bottles, retainer and more in its own pouch for easy organisation on your holiday.

OUAI
OUAI's brought back their beloved Super Dry Shampoo and I thought you should know. As a sweaty scalp girly that can't wash her hair everyday (#naturaloils), making sure my hair, at least, looks clean is really important when going out on hotter days. It adds an extra element of looking ~put together~. This spray doesn't leave any whitecast on your hair and leaves it looking and smelling fresh.
Buy it from Sephora Australia for $29+.
UNIQLO

Promising review: "It's versatile and I have a couple of them — sometimes it's my makeup bag, sometimes it's for all my hair products. The removable pouch is great and comes in handy when I travel e.g. to put wet swimmers in when I'm on the go! It's also got a nice luxe feel and I feel like a proper adult when I use it." — Sohan Judge

Promising review: "I took this neck pillow on the longest flight I’ve ever been on (10 hours to South Korea). Let me tell you — the moment I put this on, I've never, in my life, fallen asleep faster on a plane. It’s perfectly padded and if you’re a messy sleeper like myself, the straps that can be fastened onto the seat are a game changer. Despite how cushioned it is, it’s perfectly compact and fits easily into my carry on. This is now a non-negotiable travel item for me for sure, no matter the length of the flight or which class I’m in." — Bernice Corral

Promising review: "This fan works really well, even the lowest setting is quite strong. The battery life is great, I can leave it running for hours. I like that it’s bladeless, so it doesn’t get caught on anything. My only gripe is that even on the lowest setting, it is quite audible, but at the price I bought it for and considering its size and power, it’s bearable." — Honey
