1. If you're not entirely sure what to expect from your accommodation, taking a decent-sized handheld mirror like this one will be super helpful.
2. Depending on where you're off to, a bougie pair of sunnies like these ones are sure to serve you well.
3. Whether you're going to a sunny destination or not, a high protection SPF for your face is a necessity when out and about. This one is factor 50+ from the Bondi Sands range, and is one of my absolute faves.
4. Invest in this mesh waterproof shoulder bag, which to my mind is the ultimate beach bag.
5. Travelling on aeroplanes can be massively dehydrating for the skin, which is why a moisturising lip balm like this one from Dr. Lipp is a must-have if you're going to be doing a lot of flying!
6. Having a reliable couple of luggage locks is a must, and these ones are super highly rated.
7. This organic coconut oil is a great natural body moisturiser if you're going somewhere that's likely to dry out your skin.
8. Having a bag for your hand luggage that's big enough to fit all of your essentials can be a struggle, but this one is a pretty perfect size.
9. After being in the sun all day, this Nivea after-sun cream will be an absolute dream for your skin. It's even infused with aloe vera, which is known for it's soothing properties!
10. A reliable pair of flip flops is a holiday must-have, and these black ones from Havaianas are ideal as they'll go with pretty much any outfit you have planned.
11. Plan on sleeping during the journey? This breathable 3D eye mask will help to block out any light if you're trying to get some good shut eye.
12. Speaking of getting good sleep, taking some of these noise cancelling ear plugs with you is also a great shout.
13. As aloe vera is super soothing, I think it's always a good idea to pack some of this gel just in case my skin decides to kick up a fuss whilst I'm away. It also acts as a great natural after-sun treatment!
14. If you plan on wearing a lot of swimwear, this pack of two sarongs will definitely come in handy.
15. If you prefer something with a little more colour, you may like the look of this flamingo-printed sarong, which can also double up as a scarf!
16. Ensure the lighting is up to scratch before you take a holiday selfie with this clip-on ring light, which comes equipped with three different light modes.
17. Keeping your skin and hair well-hydrated if you're in a climate that can be drying is a real mission, but this hyaluronic acid serum will make it a whole lot easier for you.
18. Transporting a whole perfume bottle can really jack up your luggage weight, which is why I absolutely love these mini refillable perfume bottles.
19. There's nothing worse than falling ill when you're abroad, so keeping your immunity up with these vitamin C tablets is definitely a good shout.
20. Keeping this bite relief cream in your suitcase is a smart move – take my word for it when I say you never know when you might need it.
21. Ensure your face is well protected from the sun with this baseball cap that comes in loads of different colours.
22. This portable travel pillow will help to keep you comfy during your travels, and might even reduce the risk of you falling asleep on the person sat next to you (if you're lucky).
23. To my mind a good book is an absolute necessity when going on a relaxing holiday. I finished this one by Colleen Hoover in one sitting, so it's safe to say I'd definitely recommend it.
24. This nifty little clicker can be connected to your phone by Bluetooth, and will allow you to take group holiday pictures with a lot more ease.
