Seasoned travelers are aware that the key to a successful journey lies not only in the thrill of exploration but also in the preparation beforehand. Whether you're travelling abroad or jet-setting to exotic locales, having the right essentials can make all the difference between a smooth adventure and the one filled with a series of unforeseen challenges. When assembling your travel kit, it's important to include items that can address common health and wellness needs. 

5 Essentials That Must Be in Your Travel Kit

Bhavna V, Co-Founder of Nysh.in mentioned the things that must be in your travel kit whenever you are setting out.

• First Aid Kit: A well-stocked first aid kit containing adhesive bandages, gauze, antiseptic wipes, and adhesive tape to address minor cuts, scrapes, and burns, serving as a potential lifesaver in case of accidents.
• Medications: Pack essential medications such as pain relievers, antacids, and any prescribed medication you take regularly. It is also a good idea to include medication for common travel-related issues such as motion sickness or diarrhea.
• Pain Relief Patches: Pain relief patches can be a convenient way to manage muscle aches and pains during travel. They are easy to apply and can provide long-lasting comfort during long journeys or sightseeing tours.
• Travel Warmers: Travel warmers are a must during winter travels. These warmers are air activated and easy to use. They generate heat naturally and can be placed inside your jackets, skull caps and gloves. Moreover, they are also safe to be carried on flights. 
• Power bank: In today's digital age, staying connected is the key, whether it's for navigation, communication, or capturing memorable moments. A portable power bank ensures that your devices stay charged throughout your journey.

Skincare Essentials To Carry While Travelling:

While travelling, you skin gets exposed to a lot of dust particles and imurities. Also, the quality of water might not be good enough for your skin at all places. Therefore, is very important to take care of your skin while travelling.

Akanksha Sharma, who is the Co- Founder & CEO of CITTA listed the following ways to take care of your skin while travelling:

• Refresh your dull and drying skin on the go with a hydrating mist made with aloe vera and rose. This simple addition to the bag can rejuvenate your skin while keeping it hydrated all day.
• A hydrating toner or a glow toner crafted with damask rose helps cleanse clogged pores, tones effectively, prevents acne and fights dryness. It can reduce water loss from your skin, locking in the much-needed moisture and also fights skin dryness and reduces wrinkles, fine lines, and skin ageing.
• If you are a mom travelling with your baby or kid, carry a moisturising baby balm and foaming baby wash for a quick bath and long lasting moisturisation.
• Baby’s skin gets dry and itchy due to dirt and pollution, a baby wash made with natural ingredients like aloe vera, rice protein and coconut oil can be your saviour.
• For instant moisturisation, nothing can be as safe and convenient as a moisturising baby balm made with natural oils. Thicker than lotion or cream, baby balm stays longer, keeping skin hydrated day long.
