We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. An on-the-go razor that guarantees a close, smooth shave while taking up almost 0 space in your luggage. Goodbye, horrible disposable razors I *used* to pack!
2. Packing cubes capable of helping you fit your entire 👏 friggin' 👏 wardrobe 👏 inside your carry-on. Plus, this keeps everything lookin' niiiiice and neat.
3. Disposable silicone earplugs that may help you say "GOODBYE" to discomfort. Ear pain during air travel is REAL, and babies have every reason to cry because of it. Just saying.
4. A helpful checklist that will remind you to pack underwear, deodorant, contact lens solution, and all the other essentials that you ALWAYS FORGET TO BRING.
5. A waterproof cosmetics bag you won't have to unpack: everything can be stored upright, meaning you can keep this on your hotel bathroom sink for easy access.
6. A first aid kit because one minute you're enjoying a nice hike and the next minute your foot is bleeding and you have no idea why. *vows to never go outside again*
7. A luggage patch guaranteed to prevent cases of mistaken identity; no one will think your black bag is theirs.
8. Waterproof nylon shoe bags because you do NOT WANT the mud on your sneakers to transfer onto your brand new maxi dress, thank you very much.
9. A jewelry organizer that will be extra sweet to your earrings, necklaces, rings, butterfly clips, and so on. Why? It will become their home. Their home sweet home.
10. A TSA-approved transparent organizer so that you don't have to fish around your suitcase for liquids (and then stuff them in a clear baggy) while going through airport security. Flying is nerve-wracking enough. Let's not be panicking about whether or not our favorite moisturizer will be unjustly confiscated.
11. A laundry bag to separate your stinky, been-through-hell socks from the rest of your innocent, freshly-washed clothes.
12. An carry-on bag that you can store — YES — right underneath the seat in front of you. No more getting up mid-flight to see if you left your headphones in your stowed away bag.
13. A travel wallet to store all your important papers and documents. Passports! Boarding passes! Itineraries!
14. A foldable hair dryer that packs something itself: a lot of POWER. This tool may be small, but it is damn mighty.
15. An anti-blister balm because traveling = sight-seeing, and sight-seeing = lots of walking, and lots of walking = painful blisters.
16. A luggage and duffel bag hybrid capable of fitting 90 outfits, 13 pairs of shoes, your entire medicine cabinet, and one live animal inside.*
17. A jade roller you'll want to add to your in-flight skincare routine ASAP. This little facial massager is said to promote circulation, tighten skin, and help with lymphatic drainage to keep your face feeling glorious and de-puffed (which is especially helpful while flying).
18. A silicone travel mat that is heat-resistant up to 450°F and prevents you from ruining expensive things (like, gee, hotel bedding which I totally have not done). Feel free to wrap this around a hot tool before throwing it in your suitcase, with peace of mind knowing it won't burn anything it touches.
19. A Mario Badescu facial spray that I’m not sure how you’re living without. This impressive blend of aloe, herbs, and rosewater can do everything from set and refresh makeup, give your complexion a dewy appearance, and wake up tired skin — the kind that was waiting in an airport for one million hours due to a delayed flight caused by “bad weather”.
20. A pizza tag designed to give airport food a run for its money. Although, let's be honest, there's no comparison.
21. Neoprene handle wraps available in a bunch of vibrant, fluorescent colors you'll be able to spot from space. And at baggage claim.
22. A neck pillow with chin support designed to help your head remain upright. This'll prevent your noggin from falling down whenever you begin to snooze.
23. A shelving unit you can hang in your closet...and then drop directly into your luggage. Be gone, packing woes.
24. A cord roll because tangled headphones are the second most frustrating thing on the planet. (Forgetting your headphones at home is #1.)
25. A ~bear-y~ useful toothbrush holder with a suction cup back so you can place this directly onto your Airbnb mirror. Or hotel mirror! You fancy person you.
26. A collapsible water bowl for our canine companions! This food-grade, silicone item is perfect for when you're traveling with your good boy, but have 0 space in your backpack.
27. A regal-looking passport holder that screams, "why yes, I am flying business class."
