- Hi, guys! How's it going, Anne here.
Today's video I'm going to share with you guys
my favorite travel tips and hacks
when it comes to traveling.
Since the holiday season's coming up,
I'm pretty sure a lot of you guys
are going to be traveling, right?
If you are, make sure to comment below
and tell us where you are going,
I'm always so curious.
So, I've been traveling a lot this year.
If you guys follow me on Instagram,
I've been taking lots of beautiful pictures of
all the places I've gone to.
But aside from that, I've been collecting
lots and lots of great tips and hacks for you guys
so that way you guys can use and apply this to
whenever you're traveling.
I took down a whole bunch of notes so
that way I can share with you guys,
so let's not waste any more time and get started!
All right, guys, so tip number one.
This one is my life hack, I would say.
I do this all the time, and that is
using lemons for my armpits.
I know that sounds crazy, I did a video on this
already before, but you could either use
lemon or lime for this.
So whenever I'm traveling out,
whether outside the country or inside the country,
I would stop by my local supermarket nearby
my hotel or something like that,
and I would buy myself a lemon.
I would also pack a knife with me,
so everyday I would slice a fresh slice
and apply it onto my armpit.
And then I would smell fresh and
just feel refreshed all day long.
It works better than deodorant for me,
and it's a natural alternative.
All right, so tip number two,
this is a money saver, and at the same time,
this is like bringing a little part of home with you.
So, what I like to do is bring a reusable thermal cup.
I buy the one from Starbucks, and I would
reuse it every time I travel, and then
I would take a Ziploc bag and fill it with
my favorite tea bags, and then I would just
stuff it into the empty cup, put it in
my purse or my carry on bag, and when I'm
at the airport, or when I'm in the airplane,
I would just ask for hot water,
and if you go to your Starbucks and if
you carry that reusable cup, you ask for
hot water, they will give it to you for free,
so you don't have to spend like an extra
three to five dollars on a latte and drink up
those extra calories or any of that.
So the one thing I hate when packing is
taking out my necklaces and my jewelry pieces,
and they're all tangled up in a ball.
Press and seal, this one is genius.
So all you have to do is take out
a sheet of press and seal, place it on
your table, make sure the sticky side is facing upward.
Place down your necklaces, take out a second sheet,
place it on top of that, press and seal it together,
and you should have something like this.
And then just put it in your luggage,
pack it up, it doesn't take much space.
All your dainty jewelry pieces should stay in place.
Another great way to organize your jewelry pieces is
by using a medicine container.
I bought this from my local dollar store,
and I put my rings in here, and my stud earrings.
It's a great way to organize your jewelry pieces.
I have some great hacks to share with you guys
when it comes to reusable shopping bags!
So, what I do is I just fold these up,
and they're so compact, and they're easy to fold.
I put them into my handbags, like one of
my nice handbags that I don't want to destroy,
and then, when I'm on the plane or something like that,
and I want to prevent my handbags from getting
scratched up, I take this out, I put my bag in here.
Usually, I store my handbag on the bottom of
the airplane seat, and sometimes I kick there,
or people kick, and stuff like that.
So this is a great way to protect my handbag.
What I like to do is also carry an extension cord with me,
because I would usually sit on my bed and use the laptop,
and the outlet is all the way across the room,
so I pack like a little mini extension cord with me,
and the way I like to organize that is to just
take out a toilet paper roll, wrap my
extension cord and tuck it into the toilet paper roll.
It's a great way to organize those long cables,
and an easy hack.
Okay, so this next one is something that
I've heard of for a long time now but I'd never done,
until my foundation bottle spilt on me
midway during my trip.
So I highly recommend for you guys to try this out,
and that is to take some plastic wrap,
just cut out a little piece, and what you're going to do is
take off the cap of the bottle, place that
plastic wrap on top, and then screw on the cap,
and this should prevent any liquids from spilling,
and it should keep your cap tight and sealed.
This next tip is a two-for-one.
I like to carry one perfume bottle with me
whenever I'm traveling, and to prevent it from breaking,
I stuff it into my sock, and to organize my sock,
what I like to do is put my perfume bottle
into one sock, and then I would
loop the next sock over that sock,
and then I would keep on doing that
with all the pairs of sock I have.
So this way I will save lots of space with
all my socks, because they're packed nicely,
and my perfume bottle is safe.
For my ladies, I'm pretty sure you guys don't
like to see your compact open,
and ruined, and broken, and all that kind of stuff,
because you spent so much money on it, right?
So, this next tip is very very helpful.
All you have to do is invest a little bit money into
some cotton pads, take those cotton pads,
put them in between your compact,
so you can put them on top of your eye shadow,
or whatever it is, your blush, and then close the lid,
and it should protect your eye shadows or
your makeup from breaking.
I'm pretty sure a lot of you guys have earbuds,
and I don't know how you guys organize your earbuds,
but mine usually get tangled up in
my purse, or my pocket.
All you will need is a business card.
So, take out the long part of your earbuds,
the wire part, and wrap it around the business card.
After that, you can store it in your pocket,
or wherever you store your earbuds,
and it should prevent it from tangling up or
getting all over the place.
