Have you ever taken off on a trip looking all cute, only to land feeling like a pile a stinky garbage? What is it about traveling that just makes you feel icky? Maybe it’s the recycled air, or how the temperature is never quite right. Or maybe you’re a mom like me, and your kid spends the flight drooling all over your cute blouse. Whatever, the case and wherever you’re off to, feeling clean while traveling can be hard, especially since we don’t tend to think about how we will feel when we arrive beforehand. Luckily though, I’ve found a few amazing products that can really help keep you feeling fresh while on the go, and they’re super travel friendly!
Do you like feeling fresh and clean while traveling? Here’s a trick!
So this weekend I went to Southern Oregon to see my family (it was my grandmother’s 80th birthday party). I flew down there from Portland with my 9 month old daughter, Ayla. This flight is great because it’s so short, only 45-55 minutes long! However, any of you mom or dads out there know, traveling with a baby leaves you feeling the opposite of clean. Now, we didn’t have any diaper blowouts on the flight, but we did have lots of drool and a little spit up. Since this was my third trip flying with Ayla, I’d learned that the best thing I could do to come out on the other side of the flight still clean, was to wear layers and take off the outer layer once I land. It’s literally like wearing a whole new outfit LOL
But guess what else happened on the flight? OF COURSE I got my period. Mother Nature can be funny that way…And ladies, let’s be open and honest right now, the monthly menstrual leaves us feeling BLEGH and BLAH. I know I tend to feel bloated, crampy, and just downright icky. Luckily though, there’s a product I’ve been using that helps to keep me feeling fresh, the new Summer’s Eve® FreshCycle™ Cleansing Cloths!
I’ve actually been using the Summer’s Eve® product line for years just because they’re super convenient for on-the-go freshness and they work really well with my body, so when I heard they came out with this new line specifically to help women get through their periods feeling fresh and confident, I knew I had to try it. I purchased the individually wrapped Summer’s Eve® FreshCycle™ Cleansing Cloths, as well as the 24 count package. The individual ones are SO great for my on-the-go lifestyle because they can fit into a wallet, a purse, my pocket, ANYTHING. I also love that they’re proven to reduce period odor and remove odor causing bacteria, they’re ph-balanced, and free from dyes and parabens. They really help to keep me feeling fresh wherever I go, especially when I travel.
The Summer’s Eve® FreshCycle™ product line also includes a FreshCycle™ No-Rinse Cleansing Foam, which I’ve pictured below but I didn’t purchase because I was traveling when I found it and couldn’t take that big of a bottle with me. I do plan on testing it out once I get home though if I can find it in my local Target store!
