- Good morning, good life.
Welcome back to Amy TV, where we come together
to help you go after the life you want.
Welcome to my dressing room.
I wanted to do something a little bit more chill,
a little bit more relaxed,
really easy setup to talk to you today
because my last video was pretty extra, extra.
Don't get me wrong.
I'm very, very excited about the new set for Amy TV.
I think we're going to have a lot of great chats in there,
but I'm still working on it a little bit.
I want to make sure that it's the best experience for you,
and I'm not there yet.
And I don't have time to work on it at the moment
because we're getting ready to go out of town.
It's not crazy.
We're traveling.
We have not been anywhere since I was in New York,
right before the crackdown and like everybody stay home.
All those orders went in place, that was in February.
We went to London before that.
So for us, this is bananas.
We, my husband and I,
whether together or separate for business,
travel twice a month on average, if not more.
So for us to be home this much,
I have to tell you, has been lovely.
But anyway, we are traveling,
and so I thought it'd be fun for me to sit down
and do a What's In My Travel Bag video.
Why? Because we are not getting on a plane.
Nope, we are taking a road trip,
which means your girl can over pack.
Just so you know,
we have been as safe as humanly possible.
I think we take this pandemic really, really seriously.
We have been working from home.
We've been quarantining, so we feel really good about it.
We haven't been sick at all,
but we are going to get our COVID test today,
and it takes about a day or two to get results back
before we hit the road.
So we're thinking everything's going to be on the up and up,
and so I am preparing to take off,
and I wanted to share that with you today.
All right with that, let's get into what's in my travel bag.
I'm going to be focusing on the tote that I have with me
in the car because we are driving, brace yourself,
10 hours.
So I have to keep myself very entertained
because my husband is usually the driver
usually because Miss Dazy.
So let's get into my travel bag
and how I will be...
Oh it's, oh, it's so heavy.
All right first and foremost,
here's the elephant in the room.
I bought myself a real fancy bag
because I've been wanting this bag for two years.
There's an updated 2020 version
and I thought, what better time to get it
than the moment I'm getting in the car
and can actually use it to go somewhere.
But this is a bag I'm going to have in my life
for a very, very long time and it's so on-brand.
Oh my gosh, is that beautiful?
You know, if you've seen the new set for Amy TV,
palm trees are my jam.
Now they are blue, but I'd much prefer a blue bag
to a green bag so the palm trees are enough for me.
So everybody meet Christian. Nice to meet you, Christian.
First, let's take this out.
Hydration, everybody.
My favorite water bottle, as you can see I have dropped it.
I have beaten this thing up.
This is a very expensive water bottle
but it keeps it so cold.
I have it next to my bed every single night
so that I can take a cold drink of water whenever I need it.
My hydro flask, absolutely love it.
I think it's 42 ounces, 32 ounces, 32 ounces of water,
throw whatever you want in it like lemon or lime
but ice is the main thing for me.
Okay, so this is not full yet.
There's still a few things I'm going to tell you about
that aren't here because Amazon is delivering them
unfortunately tomorrow,
but I'm hoping to still be able to like shoot closeups of it
so that you can see what I'm talking about.
But what I already have in my little toiletry bag here,
in my little lemon toiletry bag,
I think my sister got me this.
First of all, black mask.
I ordered some great black masks on Etsy.
Hopefully we won't have to go in anywhere.
More on that later.
A week or so worth of vitamins.
I always get my own custom vitamin packs from Care/Of.
I absolutely love them.
They come with these motivational little thingies
on the front.
Love opening this every day and taking my vitamins.
This one says, "Go for a slow walk
around a familiar neighborhood.
Notice anything new or different?"
Emergencies.
I swear by this stuff,
you can think I'm crazy, but if I ever feel like
I'm getting a little like tickle in my throat
or if I'm not feeling good,
I chug an emergency immediately.
Travel Advil.
Love me the liqui gels always.
I have my bonus Laneige.
Whenever I get these kind of low to the bottom,
this is what I wear at night for my lip mask.
Whenever it's like almost running out,
it goes to my purse so that I can take it places with me,
which I have not had to do very much
in the last eight months.
So this might...
We should probably check this, make sure it's still good.
Yeah, it's still good.
This is my favorite lip mask every single night.
But I also have my lipstick because this is what makes it
look like you got it all together
when you don't always have it all together, right?
I always have this with me.
It's so funny, I will put it on
even when I put the mask on.
And then I'll be like nobody can see my lip,
but just in case, I got a lip on.
Everybody always asks me what this is too.
This is the Charlotte Tilbury Pillowtalk shade.
I have worn nothing else in the last, like two years.
I think I learned about this from Lauryn Evarts
Bostic from the skinny confidential.
She raved about it.
She called it her lip cheat, and I just,
I have it on now.
I just have it on constantly.
It's the best.
And I have a couple of sheet masks.
Not because I need them on the drive just because, well,
maybe who knows?
I might feel a little extra on the drive probably
but I definitely like to do a mask at least once a week
if I can.
I find the sheet masks are easier to travel with
but I have a couple from Peach and Lily.
Peach and Lily sent me these and I'm so excited to try them.
I have not tried them yet,
but they're just the original glow sheet masks,
and who doesn't need a little glow up?
We are really hoping to stay healthy.
However, I plan to drink water,
and I'm probably going to have to pee a lot, okay?
I bought this thing.
It is called the Sunany or the Suenanny.
I am not a hundred percent sure.
The good news is that it's pink,
and it is a female urination device.
Because when your girl's got to go,
she doesn't want to wait anyway
to get to the next McDonald's.
She just wants to go.
So I don't know exactly where these occasions
are going to take place,
but what I know is I don't need to use a public restroom.
I have my own public restroom.
I also picked up some sanitation wipes.
I just think that this is really, really easy.
You pull them out if you need to wipe down any spaces
in the car or if you need to wipe down any items
that you think maybe got contaminated somehow, I don't know.
I just feel like they're the easiest thing
to wipe everything down.
And if you can get your hand on sanitation wipes right now,
it's a really smart idea to pick them up.
So I ordered a bunch of packets so that we can take those.
And finally, I could not help but complete this whole
nasty preparation experience without the Travel John.
This is a solid waste collection kit,
and I'm going to leave it at that.
Okay, here's some other items in my bag
that are making it extremely heavy.
First of all, your girl's a boss babe.
So while I am out of the office, I am still in the office,
so I will definitely have my Mac Air.
I'm going to have to do some editing on this.
You can get some video action on the YouTube.
And I've been watching a lot of YouTube and Netflix lately,
so I am bringing my iPad as well
because it's nice to be able to multitask
and have an iPad going while you're on the computer
and doing work and stuff like that.
I plan to keep up with my morning routine as usual
so I just can't, I can't help myself.
I absolutely have to bring my planner.
I can't live without my planner
now that it's like out in the world,
like I need this every morning now
so that I can set my priorities
and write down how the trip is going
and I'm just very excited about it.
so definitely bringing the planner.
Sign up for updates for when this is restocking again.
I will definitely be doing morning pages,
so I'm still bringing that.
This journal's almost full.
I've probably got about,
I probably have about a week's worth of pages left,
so definitely going to take that with me as well
so that I can do that first thing every morning.
And I am going to be honest, I'm doing this just for show.
I'm not going to bring the daily stoic with me.
Although I do question not bringing it with me,
because as I still can read it on Kindle,
I have been doing this thing.
So this is the second year in a row
I'm reading the daily stoic every morning for the last year
and eight months, right?
The first year I just went through and did like underlining
and starring and stuff like that,
so it was more the year of absorption for me.
2020 has been the year of comprehension.
If I could rephrase what I just read in my own words,
what would that sound like?
What would I say?
What would a tweetable sound like?
And so that's what I've been doing.
So I don't do that as well
if I don't have the actual book in my hands,
so I'm still going back and forth on that,
but it is kind of unnecessary to bring the whole thing
but I love it that much.
I might do it.
As I said, can always read on Kindle.
This is my Kindle Oasis.
I will be reading a fiend in the car.
And this has just been the best.
This is the best Kindle purchase I have ever, ever made.
By far, my favorite one.
It's still very black and white
like you're reading paper,
but the intuitiveness of taking notes
and having the buttons so that you can move it forward.
It's not just a touch screen.
It's just much better as a reading experience.
And ergonomically, with the holding here,
I have the case on it.
You can take the case off
and you still have this divot of hold.
It's really easy to hold.
Just stuff like that makes it just a much better experience.
So will definitely be reading in the car.
And of course can't leave home without it.
Bullet journal.
I keep everything in here.
I've been doing a lot more digital note-taking.
I've been becoming a really big fan of notion.
And, so there's some stuff happening there,
but brain dump wise, this is just my jam.
I love, love, love my bullet journal,
so I will not be leaving home without that.
I would like to make a couple of honorable mentions
if you don't mind, because I'm just having so much fun.
There are a couple of things that will not
be going in my tote,
but I will be packing for the trip
that I am very excited about that are a little big
but are meant to travel well,
and so I intend to test that
as I am actually leaving the house.
First of all, is my self tan kit.
So I've always been a self-tanner.
Sometimes I will go to a spray tan booth,
but with Covid, I canceled all of my memberships for that
because I just do not want to risk it
for something like that.
So I've been doing all of my self tanning at home.
One of the YouTubers that I really truly admire,
she does amazing work, is Lydia Elise Mellon.
And she came out with her own line called Glo,
and it is essentially a travel kit,
but it is also a great home kit
just for keeping everything in one place.
She created this travel kit for self tanners.
And I think that's great because a lot of people
who enjoy self tanning have to do it on the road too
especially if they're going on a vacation somewhere
and they're trying to keep their glow up,
you know what I mean?
But it fits all of my different
self-tanner accoutrements in it,
and it also comes with the stuff to put it on.
You have your mitt to put it on.
This guy kind of helps you apply it to your back,
so these are great.
The kit also came with identical items but for exfoliation,
and so those are hanging in my shower.
I will probably not bring those, just for the sake
of making sure I exfoliate before I leave
and not having to worry about it until I get back.
But I tend to apply fake tan maybe twice a week,
so I want to bring this with me
since I will be gone for about that amount,
a little bit longer than that
just to see how well this actually travels.
The quality of this is supposed to be so amazing
which I assume it is because I just don't think
that Lydia would do something halfheartedly.
This is supposed to keep everything from leaking.
It's supposed to keep all your clothes safe,
everything else in your luggage safe
from that dreaded tanning liquid.
God forbid it escapes it's bottle.
Your girl said she was going to over pack.
Okay.
Yes, she's over packing.
The second Honorable mention I want to share
is my new Dyson air wrap.
I talked about it on my vlogging channel.
If you don't know what I'm talking about,
checkout Amy Landino offline.
That is my YouTube channel for vlog life.
And I was very excited when I bought this.
This is the box.
It is enormous, okay?
If I was not driving the car to where we're going,
I would not bring all of this.
I would just bring the wand and a couple of the attachments,
but you know what?
I'm bringing the whole thing.
What this is, is it basically houses everything
for the Dyson air wrap.
So this is just the blow dry feature.
And then you just kind of,
I always put this one on backwards.
You just add the attachments to the top.
I'm going to bring this with me as well
so that my hair looks pretty while we're there
'cause I have not had to dress up
and get ready to go anywhere for a long time.
I dress up for YouTube videos, and that's it.
That is what is in my travel bag, at least so far.
I was trying to think of what would be the most interesting
thing to share with you that I haven't told you about
in the past,
but a lot of stuff in there that you've definitely known
about me will to go with me everywhere.
I would love to hear what kind of things
are in your travel bag.
Share that in the comments down below.
And also, is anyone traveling during the pandemic?
Where are you going?
How are you getting there?
What are you doing for prevention?
I would love to hear your thoughts on that.
To everyone who saw the last video and bought the planner,
I love you so much.
It has been so amazing to see the feedback on that.
If you don't know what I'm talking about,
I will leave a link in the description.
But my biggest takeaway from that
was how many comments I saw of people saying, oh my gosh,
I just saw your video and the planner is sold out.
Yes, it is another reason to have notifications turned on.
If you enjoyed this video,
please make sure you give it a thumbs up.
It really supports my channel.
And do make sure you subscribe
and get notifications so that you don't miss a thing
because we are, again, changing things up
a little bit around here.
You know, I do it 'cause I get so bored
if I can't just keep you guessing.
So stay tuned.
That's all for today.
Thank you so much for tuning in.
I appreciate it as always.
Remember, subscribe for good vibes,
kiss the ones you love
and go after the life you want.
Cheers.
