Whether you’re traveling near or far or in between, you definitely need this foldable 3-in-1 charger and these holy grail travel pants as your copilots.

As a Senior Shopping Writer at BuzzFeed, I specialize in a broad range of topics, including beauty, cleaning, fashion, personal care, home, fitness, and my beloved “TikTok made me buy it.” My work has been featured across lifestyle and writing publications during my ten years in the digital media space, including Bustle, HuffPost, HelloGiggles, and The Washington Post.

Promising review: "I was at a training, and someone had something like this, and it was just a must-have. I have a work phone, my personal phone, and an Apple Watch. Also, it was just nice because the person that I was training with let others use one of the pads. It’s rare that all of your devices go dead at one time. Ever since that and since I’ve gotten this, I take it to every training I have and offer it to people around me. It’s a nice icebreaker and a way to make friends in training sessions where you don’t know a whole lot of people. It’s also very handy because it always seems like my watch goes dead when I least expect it, so I highly recommend putting it in your daily bag." —The_Adulting_Lab

Promising review: "Great little pouches to help organize your purse or backpack. I use it for my makeup and a separate one for essentials while I am out and about. I love that I can see what’s in them instead of having to rummage around. Haven’t had to clean them yet, but that seems like it will also be very easy to do." —KR

Check out a TikTok of the Trendy Queen tops in action. 

Promising review: "Soft material and very stretchy. It’s not see-through like most white shirts, and it’s very warm and thick material, so it’s good for layering in cold weather. It doesn’t wrinkle for me, so I’m able to just toss it into a travel bag and not worry. Overall, a great purchase, and I love the style; it’s very cute!!" —Amelia Zglezewksi

Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in women's sizes 3XS–3XL and 43 colors). 

Psst — these don't work on bottles with pump tops! 

Promising review: "These silicone bottle covers work really well! They stretch easily to fit over different-size bottles and stay securely in place. I’ve had no issues with leaking or spills, which makes them perfect for packing toiletries when traveling or heading to the beach. Simple, reusable, and definitely worth having. Highly recommend!" —Deanna Burnette

Promising review: "I couldn't be happier with this travel backpack! It has plenty of room for everything I need without feeling bulky or heavy. The compartments keep everything organized, making it easy to find what I need while traveling. And even has a water-resistant plastic pouch! It's comfortable to wear even for long periods, and the quality feels durable enough to handle airports, road trips, and everyday adventures. If you're looking for a stylish, functional, and reliable travel backpack, I highly recommend this one!" —Katie Kenyon

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in 19 other styles). 

Promising review: "Love this makeup bag so much. Saw it started kinda going viral on TikTok, and finally gave in, and I understand why! Not so bulky and love how I can see all my products once opened and laid out, but still organized! I gifted one to a friend for Christmas, and she loves it as well! My mom got herself one too, and we’re all obsessed! Totally worth it, don’t think I can go to any other kind of makeup bag again! Really sturdy too!" —Isa

Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in two sizes and twelve colors). 

Pro-tip: if you keep a MagSafe wallet on your phone, you can slide this inside and keep track of them both at the same time! 

Promising review: "Life changing!!!!!!!!! I lost my wallet! I spent hours looking for it!!! This was repeatedly an issue for me with my keys, my work badge, my purse, my wallet, and the list goes on and on, so I decided to buy this and see if it would work. I have no words, this tile has changed my life!!! For someone who has severe ADHD, it is a must-have!!!!! You will not regret this purchase!!!!! It has relieved so much stress in my life! super easy to set up, just get. The minute I am a short distance away from my purse. I was driving off the other day, and it immediately alerted me that I had left my purse in the building. It took me two minutes to retrieve it; otherwise, I would’ve driven 30 minutes home and had to go back. Just get it!!" —Brilly

Check out a TikTok of the foot masks in action. 

I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days! 

Promising review: "Very soothing. My husband and l used these on our European vacation, and they definitely felt good on our feet!" —KS2018

Get a set of three pairs from Amazon for $11.97.  

Check out a TikTok of the Summer Fridays Jet Lag Essentials in action. 

Promising review: "The Summer Fridays Jet Lag Essentials set is such a great way to try the products or keep favorites in a travel size. Everything feels super hydrating and leaves skin looking refreshed and glowy without feeling heavy. The Jet Lag products are especially nice when skin feels dry, tired, or needs extra moisture. I noticed my skin felt softer and looked more hydrated after using them. The mini sizes are also perfect for travel, your purse, or keeping in a carry-on. The packaging is cute, the products feel luxe, and a little goes a long way. Overall, a great skincare set and would definitely repurchase! ✨💙🧴" —Hallee

Promising review: "Love these! These are sturdy and large. I used them on a recent trip to pack boots and sneakers that I didn't want to touch my clothes. They also came in handy for putting in my backpack on hikes to keep food and drinks separate and safe from leaking. I used one for storing a wet bathing suit after a swim. So many uses and take up little space!" —Amazon Customer

Touchland is a small business that specializes in hand sanitizers. 

Promising review: "Love this hand sanitizer. I take it with me everywhere I go. Beautiful scents. Super fast drying time. Leaves my hands soft and smooth. Non-stickiness is the most important. A+++." —KD

I am a huge fan of Touchland and have been using their products for YEARS. I love that they don't smell at all like alcohol, so I don't feel bad using them in public, and that they never dry out my hands. But the leakproof bit is the real win for me. I can't tell you how many "lEaKpRoOf!!" hand sanis have exploded in my bag, but never, ever, ever has a Touchland version spilled a drop. And trust me when I say I am a chaos goblin who switches tote bags every day and knocks them around the floor with zero respect or decorum. 

Get it from Amazon for $16+ (available in five varieties, including the new Cotton Candy scent!).   

Promising review: "I have to thank all the Amazon customers who have written precise, accurate details on these pants. You guys are the reason I pulled the trigger, after so many failed purchases/returns of similar pants products from other vendors. It has been a totally frustrating experience. These are the closest pants to the Ruti 'On the Loose' barrel pant. Quality is so good, and fit is spectacular. I almost cried for joy when I put these pants on and looked in the mirror. Better than I ever could have imagined. And that is saying a lot, as I just had abdominal surgery six days ago — which means a lot of swelling to boot. Do not hesitate. You will not be disappointed." —Brenda Shuey 

Get it from Amazon for $34.98 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and nine colors). 

Promising review: "This is 100000000% the most reliable, durable, stable AMAZINGGG MagSafe accessory I have purchased! It really is a lifesaver, and it won't break the bank either! It's incredibly straightforward and super easy to use/install, very easy to transport should you need to move vehicles, etc. Also, the stability and durability of the magnet are UNREAL!!! Currently, where I reside, they are doing construction for days, so the roads are so bumpy they feel like a shopping cart rolling down a staircase, and my phone stays securely in place every time! I have no complaints about this product; the charging speed is also decent." —Courtney Brown

Promising review: "We took four of these with us on a cruise, and it was AMAZING. AMAZING. We unpacked in no time and basically had hanging dressers. They take up NO space. It's incredible. Cruise ships have very small closets. I fit two of them side-by-side in a very small area, and yet they were easily accessible. My children usually take soft-sided bags, and they become a complete MESS after one outfit change. I rolled the clothes into 'sections' like shirts in one, pants and shorts in another, underwear and socks in the top, etc. These stayed neat and tidy for the entire seven days of our vacation. They fit perfectly into small roll-on suitcases, the aforementioned duffel bags, and actually into my kids' (admittedly rather large) school backpacks! My husband initially said that he didn't want one for our trip, and so I didn't get him one. As I unpacked myself and the kids within seconds, he was joking around, saying, 'Hey! Why didn't you get me one too?' Right?! I'm ordering one for him immediately. LOVE LOVE. Buy one now!" —Renay Houck

Get it from Amazon for $54.99 (clip the coupon on the product page for this price; available in four sizes for carry-on and check baggage). 

Psst — one reviewer even used these to separate their sets of sheets in their linen closet! 

Promising review: "Love these different color packing cubes! We recently took a family vacation where five people were packed into two suitcases, and we moved hotels every 1 to 2 nights. This allowed everyone to be assigned a color and to easily find their items everywhere we went. We purchased both the large and the medium so each person had two. Once you zip them closed, you can push down to get rid of extra air — it's just a mesh opening, so if you really need to save a lot of space, you'd need a vacuum-seal bag. But these do provide compression. The large size was big enough to make two stacks of adult-sized clothing and could be folded in half to fit in the suitcase better if needed. The medium size allowed for two stacks of kids' clothing side by side." —Ereviewsamazon

Get a pack of five from Amazon for $29.99 (available in three sizes and eight styles). 

Promising review: "I bought these a few days before a trip to Rome, and they ended up being the perfect white sneaker for a European vacation. They check all the boxes: they're stylish, easy to wipe clean, lightweight, and comfortable. I'm very picky about shoes because I am a heavy walker. I typically only wear ~very~ cushiony shoes like New Balance Fresh Foam X More, Oofos, and Taos. These are more cushion-y than your average sneaker, and I comfortably walked around 20,000 steps per day. They required no break-in period, and I never developed a single blister (even though I skipped socks one day). If you're looking for a cute, cushiony, travel-friendly white sneaker that can handle long days of walking, I highly recommend these!" —Dani Escobar

Get it from Amazon for $64.99+ (available in women's sizes 4–12 with wide options in select versions, plus 29 styles). 

Promising review: "These are perfect for the one-item sink cleaning that occurs when traveling. I highly recommend it for those travel excursions where you want to clean one or two clothing items." —LIFE_COMPOSED 

Get a pack of three (with three mini loads each) for $6.99. 

Promising review: "Look, writing a review for sprayable bathroom insurance is slightly embarrassing, but here we are. I’ll admit I was skeptical — trapping natural disasters under a layer of essential oils sounded too good to be true. But it actually works exactly like you hope it would. A few sprays into the bowl beforehand, and suddenly the bathroom smells like a pleasant spa instead of a biological hazard. ​It’s small enough to slip into a pocket or bag without calling attention to yourself, making it an absolute lifesaver when traveling or using a bathroom at someone else’s house. 10/10, dynamic peace of mind in a tiny bottle." —Brooke Mercer

Get it from Amazon for $5.91 (available in two sizes). 

Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS, that specializes in antimicrobial toothbrushes designed to get deeper cleans even patients with "great" dental hygiene might miss with traditional brush and floss routines. 

I've been using the regular-size version of this for over a year now and I LOVE it! I used to use an electric toothbrush, but I feel like I'm getting a much more satisfying clean from these — especially because I tend to get yellow stains between my teeth no matter *how* much I floss, and these bristles seem to actually target that a lot more effectively. My teeth feel genuinely ~squeaky clean~ after I use this, too. 

The regular size version is one of our 2026 Buzzy Award winners! Check out the full list to shop all 100 picks, hand-selected by the BuzzFeed Shopping team.

Promising review: "This toothbrush is a new staple item for my on-the-go Invisalign bag. When I need to brush my teeth and don't have time to floss before putting my aligners back in, this brush makes sure my teeth and mouth feel clean and removes debris in between my teeth. The bristles are soft, this toothbrush is sturdy, and the different lengths of bristles help remove debris or help floss your teeth on the go. This brush also dries very fast in between uses as well." —V. Brown

Promising review: "I bought this for my recent European trip and it worked great. It’s compact, easy to use, and offers adequate pressure. Each fill of the tank lasts me one session, so it’s perfect for me. I used to pack my full-size Waterpik; no more — this is one of my better buys for traveling!" —Phuoc Lee 

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in four colors). 

Here's what BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly (pictured above) says about these: "This is me wearing them for takeoff for a Newark > Edinburgh red-eye flight and I had zero problems! I normally swap from these to the Mack's Earplugs once we're up at a cruising altitude and I really block out noise from other passengers. So they're not really noise-canceling, but worth the extra room in your personal bag!" 

Promising review: "This product has changed my life. I travel fairly frequently and always have issues with ear pressure on the plane. My ears will be clogged up, and it is painful to swallow for a day or two after short-distance flights. But now, I use these and fly incident-free. You are supposed to insert them before the plane takes off and then before landing. I have found that it works best if I leave them in the entire flight from before takeoff until landing, but they work almost as well if you take them out once you reach cruising altitude." —Thomasina

Promising review: "I was looking for a lightweight luggage scale to ensure that when returning from vacation, my luggage was not overweight. This works amazingly. Super lightweight and extremely accurate." —Taziree

Get it from Amazon for $9.86+ (available in seven styles and in a two pack).

Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for, and I took it on our summer cruise and still have some meds left in my purse. It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. It's small enough to fit easily in my purse, backpack, or carry-on, but it includes the basic medications that are handy for everyday situations and travel. The case pouch that can be resealed keeps everything organized, so I don't have to carry several separate bottles. I also like that it's lightweight and convenient to grab whenever I'm on the go. It's great for road trips, vacations, or keeping in the car for unexpected needs. Having these essentials in one compact kit gives me peace of mind, knowing I'm prepared for minor aches, allergies, or stomach issues while away from home." —Kimmy Mc 

Promising review: "This thing is awesome. Pretty sure I saw someone use it on TikTok, so I found it on Amazon, and it sat in my 'save for later' cart for a while. I thought it would be good for a splash pad we bought for our son a while back, and we didn't realize you had to blow up the outer ring before you could turn the water on. I finally hit the purchase button when we planned a boat day, and I knew I would be blowing up floaties left and right. This worked perfectly! Small but mighty! Comes with a carrying case to keep everything in one place, and it is super easy to charge. I definitely recommend it!!" —Caitlin Veach

Promising review: "A few weeks ago, I decided to try the 4AM clean sheets after seeing them in Target’s travel section. After just one use, I was hooked and quickly ordered the 30-count pack. When they say 'no rinse,' they really mean it. You just take a wipe out of its portable packaging — perfect for fitting into even a small purse or your pocket — and wipe your face clean. The feeling afterward? Soft, dewy, and refreshed, almost like you forgot you just cleaned your skin. There’s no residue, no heavy fragrance — just a lovely, natural glow. I wholeheartedly recommend keeping this handy product in your emergency beauty kit, especially if you’re always on the go. A solid 10/10!" —Accidental Mompreneur

Get a pack of 30 from Amazon for $22.99. 

Promising review: "I use these every day at work! Love these — easy to learn and to use. Best thing about them? Well, everything, lol. Good sound, they hold a charge for long periods, and I don’t have to worry about them losing power. I can answer my phone easily and then go back to music without a problem. Definitely a great buy and worth the money! Love this color, too!" —Erin

Get it from Amazon for $25.98 (available in eight colors). 

Check out a TikTok of the motion sickness patches in action. 

Promising review: "Motion sickness can derail a trip quickly, so I packed these patches with cautious optimism. They delivered. One patch behind the ear provided steady relief through long hours at sea, even during rougher stretches. The strength felt just right. Effective without overwhelming the body or dulling the senses. Portability is another win. The patches are slim, lightweight, and easy to tuck into a carry-on or small pouch. Ten patches offer solid value and peace of mind for longer trips." —mzphine

Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $7.59 (available in different size packs).

I used this on a round-trip from NYC to Tokyo, both with connecting flights in Canada, and cannot sing its praises enough. It fit all four of the different tray tables I used it on and was so ridiculously handy for keeping track of all my littler odds and ends like AirPods, the plane's headphones, earplugs, a sleep mask, a book, gum, a scrunchie, and little snacks. The hanging end of it easily tucked into the built-in sleeve of the seat in front of me for takeoff, and when other passengers needed to scoot past me in my aisle seat. Usually, I feel like a hot mess and get frustrated rooting around in the grimy sleeve for my stuff, and this was such a refreshing solution! Several flight attendants even asked where I got it to buy one for themselves! 

Promising review: "Most awesome thing I bought all year! I have a small sports car, no cup holders. This thing looks awesome, is well-made, and is sturdy! It's everything I needed, and it looks fantastic in my car, even though I have a dark blue leather interior. Fabulous find!" —2019

Get it from Amazon for $20.89+ (available in six colors).

Swigzy is a small business that specializes in drinkware and accessories. 

Promising review: "Fits great in my F-150. I've been manually holding my Yeti for years, often times picking my water bottle off the floor after it slides off my passenger seat. Slide no more. This thing works great. Feels sturdy. Holds all of my oversized cups. Highly recommend." —Bryan

Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in three styles and two colors). 

Each strip comes with three outlets and four USB ports. 

Promising review: "Excellent product. Great to take with you when traveling. It’s not bulky and can fit in any bag pocket. The USB ports work perfectly. I would definitely recommend this power strip 100%, and the price point is very fair." —JC

This requires two AAA batteries, which are not included. 

Promising review: "I have used this Remington razor long enough now to say it is a great razor, and good for sensitive skin. I have found that it gives a good, clean shave without leaving a sting on the skin. No pulling, no dragging, cuts close for even the toughest hairs. Low noise and speed are great. Shave smoothness lasts longer than throw-away razors." —Bertha Green

Promising review: "Convenient size/shape for travel! Easily fits in your purchase, suitcase, etc., and a small individual pack contains a solid number of high-quality, non-irritating wipes. Discreet appearance, easy to use, does not dry out quickly, and and overall great value for the price! The wipes are not super thin but also not super thick, just the perfect amount. Will be repurchasing!" —Alina

Get a pack of eight from Amazon for $8.47 (available in larger packs).  

Promising review: "Confidentiality is everything in my line of work. I put this in my conference room near the door and set it to a low volume — just enough to mask conversations without being noticeable. The wall plug design means it's always ready, no batteries to replace. Sound quality is excellent — soft and ambient, not mechanical. My clients feel more at ease knowing their privacy is protected. Additionally, I have bought a second one for home use. I'm a very light sleeper, and have found this white noise machine to be an immense help in getting a good night's sleep. It has 30 different sound settings from white noise to nature, something to soothe anyone, plenty of volume, and a built-in direct wall plug. It also comes with a long USB cord, if you don't have a plug nearby. It also has a dimmable night-light. Because of its small, compact size, it's also great for travel, easy to pack, and take to a hotel/Airbnb, I've always got the soothing sounds I need to get some sleep." —Val

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 $15.99+ (available in brown, dark brown, blonde, and in multipacks and bundles). 

It fits any phone up to 100 mm x 170 mm (or about 3.9 inches x 6.7 inches). It's also a great fix for keeping out sand and dirt (and a great option for runners, if you're caught in the rain but still want to be able to toggle through your music options).

Promising review: "I purchased this case in July for an upcoming canoe trip with a friend, and as luck would have it, we flipped our canoe. I just assumed my phone would be discovered a thousand years from now and placed in a museum as an ancient artifact. Fast forward to this week. I was contacted via FB by an Alachua County Sheriff’s Office diver, and guess what he found? Yup, my phone case with all of the contents intact and dry as a bone! He had to cut the case open, but there was not one single drop of water in it, and he ended up purchasing a case for himself because he was just that impressed!" —Julie McDonald

Here's what BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly has to say about this case: "With these, I find that they're good for about a day due to condensation. So, for a trip, I'll buy two to three. I've used this case to take underwater pics, on boat rides, and have worn it with the lanyard, jumping off a boat into water. So, I really trust these!"

Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in 14 colors).

Promising review: "A very cute, compact umbrella in a hard zippered case. Sturdy and well-made. It can be used to block the hot summer sun or to shield you in the rain." —Debi

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 12 styles). 

Promising review: "Seems silly but 100% worth the buy. I fly A LOT, and I am always too afraid to wear my AirPods on flights because I’ve dropped one under the seat a couple of times while sleeping or just moving around. This product is great — keeps my AirPods from falling, and I can confidently nap on flights without losing a pod. Highly recommend!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $10.99 (available in 18 styles). 

Promising review: "I bought two straps to use for my trip. It was so worth it! It held my family's light jackets and kids travel neck pillow. We also used it to hold our water bottles on our hikes. I wish I knew about these sooner!" —Lisa H

Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in six colors). 

Promising review: "These are my best value summer purchase. I take my kids to the splash park all summer long and these come in so handy for their wet clothes. It's waterproof, roomy, and a cute alternative to using a plastic bag." —Brenda

Get a set of two from Amazon for $14.95 (available in 30 styles). 

Here's what BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly has to say about them: "This is a product that I put in travel stories over and over and over again, and would always think, 'Hmm, I should buy some.' Once I booked my first-ever cruise, I knew that I needed to invest in these hangers to make the most of what I presumed would be a tiny closet for my cabin. These were super easy to slip into my super-packed suitcase and plenty sturdy for holding up a variety of stuff. In my pic above, you'll see one collapsed and then one in use, with dips perfect for spaghetti or thin straps. So many hotel and rental places' hangers don't have those little dips, and my slip dresses are always slipping off of them. With these, I was able to put a variety of garments on them without anything slipping off — in fact, they work better at that than my regular velvet hangers I have at home!" 

Promising review: "They are so lightweight and yet so durable. I can’t say enough good things about them. I love the fact that they come in their own bag so that I wouldn’t have several hangers flying around my suitcase. I love that now I don’t have to worry about how many hangers the hotel has. Another big bonus is that if you decide to do laundry, you can now hang up your clothes to dry. The hangers are very light, and they add relatively nothing to the overall weight of my suitcase. It is the perfect solution for my travel needs." —P. Thomassen

BodyGlide is a small business that specializes in chafe-preventing personal care products. 

Promising review: "Miracle worker. This stuff is seriously magic. I glide it along problem areas on my feet AND the shoes, and I hardly ever get blisters anymore. Cannot recommend this enough!" —Alexandra 

Promising review: "Great organizer. Easy to collapse if I need to put it away. Storage pockets are well thought out and sturdy. Fun prints, too." —RDD

Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in 12 prints and three sizes). 

Promising review: "Love this product! I work out on the go, so I’m always in need of a water bottle, but I hate carrying a big one around all the time. This bottle is a nice size to use while running/walking (lightweight and easy to carry), it doesn’t leak like most plastic bottles, and it’s easy to roll/fold up and store in a bag after you’re done. Overall, great design and functionality. 10/10." —LaMonica

Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in five colors). 

Promising review: "This product is exactly what I was looking for. It fits well in my lunch box, and it's easy to clean. The box it comes in is great. I am able to keep my utensils separate from my food while traveling." —Meghan Evans

Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in four styles). 

Promising review: "I recently took a trip to Rome and Venice, and I swear by these clips. Pickpockets in Venice were thick, after us as soon as we got off the water taxi. But since these take some effort to get on/off, I think it dissuaded pickpockets from choosing us. Of course, it’s an added step to secure your luggage, but it's well worth it to me. They are lightweight, well-built, and blend in thanks to their dark gray color. Anything is better than nothing if you’re traveling to pickpocket-prone locations. Also, if you have a bag on which the zippers don’t seem to want to stay shut, these are great for that." —IU Fan
