Summer is the time for festivals, road trips, and vacations! Whether you're heading to Pitchfork or Riot Fest, you'll want to travel prepared. Don't leave the house with these essentials-- all fit easily into your purse or carry-on bag!
A Handy Sani
A must-have for every occasion, especially at outdoor festivals and other places where you won't have ready access to running water and soap. Keep it clean naturally with Dr. Bronner's Hand Sanitizer Spray. Lavender-scented and in a convenient 2 oz. spray pump, this is the perfect size for your purse or bag.
'Screen Time
Make sure to slather up with SPF before heading out. But if you're going to be in the sun all day, you'll want to make sure you reapply every couple of hours. For quick reapplications on-the-go, the Badger Stick SPF 35 is the perfect no-mess solution. We also love Derma E's SPF Powder Brush for sun protection you can easily apply to skin, face, and hair throughout the day. This silky-smooth mineral powder offers natural protection and comes in a convenient brush applicator.
No bugs allowed
Protect from those winged nasties with NOW's Bug Ban Spray, which naturally keeps the pests away with essential oils and is completely DEET-free. For extra protection, BugBand's Insect Repelling Bands can be worn like a bracelet to help keep bugs at bay throughout the day (and night!).
Stay hydrated
Make sure to pack an eco-friendly water bottle! But even when drinking water throughout the day, it can be hard to stay hydrated in the summer heat. This is where electrolytes come in! We love Nuun Sport Hydration Tablets for an on-the-go burst of hydration. Simply add a tablet to a 16 oz. water bottle and let dissolve. With natural flavors like strawberry lemonade, you'll be gulping down hydration like a champ!
Pucker up
Don't forget to take care of your lips! For all-natural SPF protection, keep Badger's Clear Zinc Oxide Sunscreen Lip Balm in your pocket for frequent application. Layer on some ultra-sheer summer color for a look you'll love all day long with Gabriel's Lip Gloss in Champagne or Mineral's Fusion Sheer Moisture Lip Tint in Shimmer or Glisten.
We hope these suggestions keep you clean and comfortable on all your summer adventures! If you're going to Lollapalooza, what artists are you looking forward to? Let us know in the comments below, and be sure to check out our team's Lolla playlists this Thursday!
