If you’re going on a cruise, I have the nausea-relief hack you’ll want in your bag.

I'm a Shopping Editor who uses my passion for hitting "add to cart" (and my 8+ years in media) to curate the best products on the web — I'm particularly passionate about finding the best beauty products, which probably stems from my days of working at Lush Cosmetics, where I learned about effective skincare ingredients while getting covered in bath bomb dust every day.

Everything in this list is available with Amazon Prime two-day shipping at the time of posting, so yes, it's not too late to buy the outlet adapter you've been meaning to get for months now.

Note: The color of the case you receive is picked at random. You will either receive green, purple, or orange.

Promising review: "I purchased this to keep in my purse zipper compartment for 'emergencies' aka getting something stuck in between my teeth, such as pepper, lettuce, herbs, whatever. I can go to the powder room and remove whatever it is. I feel better having these in tow. We love Plackers for use here at home; they make flossing easy. With age, it just seems things tend to get stuck more, and these are a great idea to have just in case. I can refill the case if I do end up needing to use them. The case is easy to open and close and feels like it will stay closed well in my purse. These are a great idea!" —Small~Town~Girl

Get a case with 12 flossers from Amazon for $2.23. And refill your case with a 36-count bag of flossers for $2.45.

I'm obsessed with my Philips Sonicare electric toothbrush (and so is my dentist!), but it's just way too bulky to stuff in my already over-stuffed carry-on when I'm traveling. I decided to try this out on a recent trip and was super impressed with how well it works. I love that it has a two-minute timer built in (with reminders to switch quadrants every 30 seconds), and it gives a nice, gentle vibration. For under $20, this is a great alternative to lugging around a bulky rechargeable toothbrush and way better than most flimsy travel toothbrushes.

Get it from Amazon for $19.98 (available in nine colors).

But remember that this is not a voltage converter!

Promising review: "I am a digital nomad, so I travel full-time around the world. I have a lot of devices to charge (laptop, Kindle, phone, backup battery, portable Wi-Fi device, camera, the list goes on). A lot of times, hostel bunks or hotel rooms only have one outlet, and with the previous adapter I was using, I had to charge one device at a time. I used to literally set my alarm to wake up in the middle of the night and switch devices so that I could get more than one device fully charged overnight. I did my research finally and settled on this one because it is universal and has four USB ports. What a GAME CHANGER. On my latest trip, I was able to charge all my devices at once, and it made traveling so much smoother. It seems well made and good quality, too. Definitely recommend to my digital nomad and traveling peers. Happy travels! :)" —Maggie A.

Promising review: "Hate dragging out the old hotel iron and board, so I just spray my wrinkled clothes with this, and viola! Takes the wrinkles out, and off I go — no wrestling while putting the iron and board away. I even have a small travel iron or use my hair styling irons if I want a better finish, but this usually does the job nicely." —Audie 

Each pack comes with three packets. And, because they *are* liquid, they'll easily slide into the side of your toiletries bag.

Promising review: "Game changer for travel! We were gone for two weeks, and I was able to wash all the clothes I had packed! Helped with using only a carry-on for the trip and kept my clothes fresh and clean! So easy to use and smelled nice! Will never travel without them again!" —Kristy

Get nine packs from Amazon for $6.97 (also available in packs of three and six).

Promising review: "This little bottle is pure gold. I threw it in my purse for emergencies (you know the ones), and wow — it works. A couple of sprays in the bowl before you go, and that dreaded “public restroom aftermath” never happens. The Beach Bum scent is warm, tropical, and slightly sweet — not fake coconut or overpowering perfume. It’s discreet, travel-sized, and has saved me from several awkward moments. Honestly, this is one of those things everyone should carry but no one talks about. Also a fantastic stocking stuffer or cheeky gift." —Mildly Motivated Kim

Get it from Amazon for $5.02 (also available in a two-pack).

Promising review: "My husband and I travel a lot and take a number of prescription drugs. It was always a hassle accessing our medication when needed, so I purchased this organizer to make things easier. I used a label maker and labeled each little compartment, and it has performed wonderfully. I highly recommend this organizer to anyone who travels and needs medications throughout the day." —Jacqueline

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $5.97 (available in two color sets).

Promising review: "Fits comfortably and looks amazing! I always have trouble finding a swimsuit that I like and that I’m comfortable in, and this one is a winner! The color is fabulous, also! This swimsuit gives me the confidence I need!" —Kris Farley

Get it from Amazon for $38.79 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 40 styles).

Promising review: "I used this fan when I went to the beach with my 7-week-old son! I attached it to his stroller, and he stayed cool the whole time he was outside. Since returning, we have used it in the car, for stroller rides, and I even use it when I’m hot in the house! The bendable legs make it easy to attach to any surface or allow it to stand on a flat surface. All around best purchase I have made this summer!" —Jessica

Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in six colors).

Promising review: "I was SUPER stoked when they made a less drowsy version! The original put me out! I get motion sick sooo easy even when driving and it slows me down to the point I can’t drive the hour to see family and hour away. With this formula It helps calm my stomach, my mind, and my anxiety while helping me stay awake and happy on my trips! Will recommend to anyone! A lot of my friends take it!" —Autumn Williams

Get eight tablets from Amazon for $3.97 (also available in packs of two and three).

Promising review: "Took this on my first cruise. Anytime that I started to feel woozy I’d reach for it. I’m sure the required act of deep breathing helped a lot — and breathing in the fragrance of the essential oil is very calming and effective. Worked for me! Wonderful!" —Willy&Lilly

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in a pack of four). 

Promising review: "Just what I needed. This worked perfectly on a recent business trip. Felt refreshing and left my skin feeling soft." —Glenda E 

It comes with one handle and one blade refill!

Promising review: "The travel-size shaver is definitely a space saver, along with a lovely case that has holes to help ventilation and prevent mold. Don’t let the cuteness fool you. Despite its much smaller size, the handle is easy to handle and grasp." —Sight Seer

The kit comes with 30 flexible fabric Band-Aids in various sizes, 21 sheer Band-Aids, three nonstick pads, one roll of paper tape, nine hand cleaning wipes, 10 packs of all-purpose dressings, one tube of Neosporin, and four Tylenol extra-strength caplets. Oh, and a plastic case to keep everything in!

Promising review: "Great little first-aid kit to have on hand. It’s compact but includes all the basic essentials you might need for minor cuts and injuries. Easy to store and perfect for travel, a car, or keeping in a rental. Good quality and gives peace of mind knowing it’s there if needed." —Connor

Promising review: "This small-but-very-effective stick of sunscreen was perfect for traveling with us on vacation. I took it to the beach, stuck it in my bag when we went exploring and carried it in my purse when we were in town. The smell is so good; it makes you want to take a bite out of it! I found it perfectly fine for my face, not greasy or irritating. I'll most likely buy a bigger size of lotion for my next trip as well." —Pixie Mom

Promising review: "I got so many compliments when wearing this set on vacation in Hawaii! The top is very comfortable and cropped at just the right length. The shorts were a little see-through, but for the price, they were very comfortable." —Courtney Smith

Get it from Amazon for $38.98 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and in 13 colors/patterns). 

Promising review: "Made very well. Nice breathable fabric that isn’t too thick/heavy but also isn’t cheap or too thin. It’s very soft, lightweight, and flows nicely. Nice quality. I’m always extremely skeptical about elastic waists because they can kill a look; I was ECSTATIC to find that this isn’t your average elastic waist. It gathers just enough to give definition between the torso and hips and isn’t even close to being too tight or snug around the waist. Seriously, I was so excited. The off-shoulder neckline is sexy and feminine, and living in Arizona, between having a shoulder exposed and putting my hair up, it makes me feel 50% cooler in the hot temps. Love it." —Holly

Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in women's sizes S–3XL and 31 other colors).

Promising review: "A must-have for vacations. This rain cover and mosquito net were perfect for our vacation! It fits over our stroller nicely and was great for the two-day trip we took to Cincinnati as some days we used the net and one day it rained when we went to the zoo, so we used the cover! The baby didn't get overheated inside and was a happy camper since he could see through it. Very easy to use and worth every penny!" —Tlake33111

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in two colors). 

Promising review: "It’s a little hard to fill, but if you have a small funnel already, it makes it a lot easier. They’re super easy to use and really convenient for packing. I use it for the gym, travel, and I also travel for work often, and it comes in handy there." —Kelsey Jacobi 

Get a set of two from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in three colors). 

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says, "HELLO, I AM OBSESSED WITH THESE. Despite all the rave reviews I was definitely skeptical of space-saving bags that didn't require a vacuum, and even as they were actively squishing my clothes into oblivion I still couldn't quite believe it. I had easily two suitcases worth of clothes I wanted to pack for a three-week trip to London, and I managed to neatly pack the entirety of my wardrobe in one roller carry-on bag. Truly all I had to do was put my clothes in the bag, push them to the bottom, and then sit on it to get the air out before sealing it up. I had tons of extra bags and make a habit of taking them with me in case other people joining me on trips need them to be able to pack souvenirs on the way home. I'm never taking a long trip without these again — these are worth every damn penny."

Promising review: "I travel monthly for work, usually gone for 4–5 days. Before these, I would have to check a bag. Dress shirts and pants, roll up nicely, and stay wrinkle-free. It's tempting to want to over-stuff these, but if you're packing golf shirts or clothes with 'slippery' fabric, they slide out of the top of the bag as you get close to the end. The clips take a minute to get used to, but after a couple of times zipping up the bags, it's pretty easy." —BigSkinny

Get a set of eight from Amazon for $15.28. 

Each set comes with a small, medium, large, and extra-large cube, a shoe bag, and a laundry bag. Reviewers also mention using these to organize drawers when they're not traveling.

Promising review: "I have been on the fence about buying packing cubes for two years! I wasn’t sure if they would really make a difference in my packing or not. However, I am so glad I decided to get some! I have looked at many brands, but I am happy I decided on this one! These are made from a great material and are super cute! This is one of the few brands that include both a shoe bag and a dirty linen bag!...I was actually able to close my luggage with ease for the first time. These keep your clothes clean and organized. It makes packing and unpacking a breeze." —Cindy U.

Get a set of eight from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in 11 colors).

Promising review: "I love this little suitcase. It's perfect for carry-on and fits a good amount of clothes/shoes, etc. It also expands. I used it for a 12-day trip. I took buses, trains, and planes with this suitcase. The wheels are great and it was smooth and easy to move around. I took it as carry-on and ended up checking it in for the return flights; it survived just fine. I love the orange color, which makes it very easy to see in baggage claim." —Kirsten

Get it from Amazon for $60.97+ (available in three sizes, five colors, and various sets).

Promising review: "This is a great carry-on bag! It has numerous pockets and storage areas to keep everything organized. I've taken it on three trips to Europe this year, as well as a few domestic trips, and it fits well under most airline seats (unless the seat has a footrest). In those cases, it's easy to fit it in the overhead compartment. On a couple of occasions when airlines requested that carry-on bags be checked at the gate, this bag was OK for me to carry onboard since it's not too large (yet it holds a lot). In an emergency, I was able to fit three days of clothes, sweaters, a jacket, toiletries, shoes, and electronics in this bag because it's so easy to organize it in numerous compartments. It wheels great, too. I've traveled a lot over the years, and this is the best carry-on bag I've found. I bought two of them!" —DM7233

Get it from Amazon for $59.99 (available in nine colors).

Promising review: "This garment bag is an exceptional value for the money. Well built, top quality materials, including 'beefy' zippers, should hold up well for airline travel. Minimal wrinkles, if any, in garments, and a cavernous bag for storing shoes and other items for a trip. Added bonus: it fits easily in the plane overhead storage and is similar in size to a standard roller bag. I highly recommend this product." —Kindle Customer

Promising review: "I LOVE this backpack! The color is a perfect light cream, way cuter than other travel backpacks. I spent a week in Spain on my own, and this backpack truly fit everything I needed when I couldn’t bring my suitcase. The padding and support on the back and the straps made it so comfortable to carry, despite how full it was. The way the backpack is structured distributes the weight evenly and does not cause strain at all. The many compartments make it so easy to keep things organized and allow you to fit more things just when you think it’s full. I kept my clothes rolled up in the main compartment, my toiletries in the waterproof front compartment, and laptop and Kindle in the back. The bottom compartment was perfect for all my cables." —Olivia

Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in four sizes and 40 styles). 

Promising review: "Perfect. Have used these for hiking and business travel. Can't imagine anyone having a bad thing to say about them." —G. B. 

Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in 18 colors and six sizes). 

Promising reviews: "I use this brush daily and during trips. I like travel-sized brushes because the teeth tend to be spaced further apart and work better for my curls. This brush is waterproof, so it works great in the shower. Also good for kids with lots of tangles." —DG

"My son has 4c hair and brushes I’ve tried before break his curls and would take forever to detangle his hair! This brush right here cuts the time in half and glides right through!" —Elizabeth

Get it from Amazon for $11.49 (available in 11 colors).

Promising review: "I was skeptical about a bar shampoo, but wanted something that would last and I could take on my frequent travels... This was the solution I was after, and I plan to use it even back home. A little goes a long way and leaves my hair feeling bouncy and refreshed. It also has a nice, clean scent that isn't overpowering. Would purchase again." —Jennifer G.

Get it from Amazon for $14 (available in 11 styles).

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth (that's her above) has traveled with this in her carry-on and loves it: "Here, I used hotel shampoo (it was pretty fancy, NGL), this conditioner bar, and my roommate's Moroccan Oil curl cream. The bar is basically foolproof. You rub it directly on your wet hair after rinsing out your shampoo. I normally wash my naturally curly hair once or twice a week but on this trip was taking daily dips in the sea, so I washed my hair 5x over a week. Because of this, I let the conditioner sit for a few minutes, though you probably don't need to do that if you're washing your hair your usual amount on your trip. Each bar is supposed to last 200 washes and it might do a little less for me, but I know this'll be good for many future trips!"

Promising review: This is incredible! It leaves my hair feeling soft, hydrated, and healthier with every use. I was skeptical about switching from a traditional liquid conditioner, but this bar exceeded my expectations. It’s compact, eco-friendly, and lasts longer than I expected." —Niki Saigeon

Check out a TikTok of the dry shampoo in action. 

Promising review: "Will be buying again!! This is a fantastic product. I have incredibly thin hair that gets very oily very easily. This is the first product that I’ve tried that actually works! I am so very happy!" —Katie_0_Baker

Get it from Amazon for $13.59+ (available in brown, dark brown, blonde, and in multipacks and bundles). 

Promising review: "I’ve been buying these for years. They replaced my Ray-Bans that look identical! Fit great, and with the price point, I don’t have to worry too much with my kids and being on the go!" —Jessica M

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $18.99 (available in five sets, as well as two-packs, and individual pairs). 

Promising review: "TikTok told me this compared to Lululemon, and it’s true, it is. Love this little bag! And the price — you can’t beat it." —Jolie

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly also owns this — she packed it as her only bag for a trip to busy trip to Iceland, and not only did it hold a ton and keep her hands free, but it easily fit around her waist over her outerwear. 

Get it from Amazon for $12.98+ (available in 45 colors). 

Promising review: "Got this delivered yesterday. Immediately tried it on and it is fantastic! It adjusts if need be and looks so cute on. I love the ability to use the strap on windy days. My ensemble is complete with the hat, a new spring sundress and new sandals! Thank you!" —Kathleen

Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in two sizes and eight colors).

It also has a lifetime replacement warranty!

Promising review: "I really got tired of having umbrellas turn inside out during a big rain storm while I'm outside. And it would always happen right in front of people. And those were name-brand umbrellas. So, I checked out reviews about Repel and ordered one. I've used it for a couple of years, and at no time, even during the heaviest of wind and rain, I have not had it turn inside out. I think it's the vent at that top. The vent does not let rain in. So I just bought another Repel umbrella to keep in the vehicle. One for travel with me, one in the vehicle for those very frequent times I drive somewhere, and a rain storm whips up, even though it is not on the weather app!" —Brother O
