Pack for comfort.
1. Therapeutic Silk Sleep Mask 2. Gel (spa) socks 3. oversized sweater
When it comes to long flights it’s definitely an essential for me to carry comfort items. I don’t know about you guys but I always get cold on flights so I like packing a light sweater and socks to keep me warm. I love these particular socks because they are a Gel (spa) socks, which keeps your feet hydrated and silky smooth after the plane ride! I know that sometimes flights provide a sleeping mask, but I like to bring my own because this therapeutic silk sleep mask helps me fall asleep faster. I’m always looking for an excuse to turn the plane ride into a spa!
Pack for entertainment
1. Frends Headphones 2. Canon 3. Magazines & Books 4. Reading Glasses 5. iPhone
I can’t go anywhere without my phone and my latest issue of Vogue of course, but on long flights I can get really bored, so I like to keep my books, DSLR, and headphones on my carry-on just in case I want to use it. I also like to bring my valuables on my carry-on just so it’s always with me. I won’t be able to provide you guys with amazing travel photos if my camera got stolen!
Pack for beauty
1. Wakaya Perfection Organic Ginger 2. Sleeping Pack Mask 3. Tarte Cheek Stain 4. EOS Lip Balm 5. Tootbrush & toothpast 6. A Clutch (to keep all my beauty products in) 7. Laneige BB Cushion 8. Keihls Eye De-Puffer 9. Carry on Perfume 10. Blotting sheets 11. Avene Thermal Spring Spray 12. Dry Shampoo 13. Eye Drops 14. Advance Night Serum 15. Mints 16. My Contact Case
Last but not least, my beauty products! I’ve learned from thru my travels its important to fight off Jetlag from the plane. I discovered The Wakaya Perfection Organic Ginger which is a remedy for jet lag, I usually drink it daily when traveling with hot water to fight off any jet lag or colds! It’s the magic potion! If I’m going to be sleeping on a flight, I always bring my sleeping mask, my Keihls Eye Depuffer, and of course my Avene thermal spring spray ( to keep my face constantly moisturized & misted) . My dry shampoo is also a must-pack, because after sleeping against the seat, my hair tends to get flat. I also carry around minimal makeup with me such as my Tarte Cheek Stain, as I prefer a light dewy look when traveling. Also the Cheek stain is good to wear on the cheeks as well as the lips for that natural glow. I like to pack my beauty items into a clutch so that I can just take it out when I put my carry-on luggage overhead. It’s also a functional way to pack my clutch for later uses on my travels!
Now you’re all packed and ready to go, just make sure you have your passport! As i’m traveling this Thursday to The Bahamas to be a judge for the Miss Teen USA pageant , I will definitely be bringing all of the above with me! Bon voyage and happy traveling!

A Week of Wellness
We flew the whole CINCteam out to Austin for a week of wellness, meditations, group activities, and spa treatments.
I like your suggestion of gel socks and eye mask (hopefully the gel type) to make a plane ride more like a spa day. Also thank you for reminding me ginger for jet lag. I had used ginger for altitude when I first started hiking in higher altitude. It can be used for mile-high plane ride, too.
Now I also pack food and drink for plane rides. Cut fruits, cheese, cracker, and cured meats are my favs. I have a HydroFlask for my tea (using tea bags) so that I have hot tea anywhere I go as long as there’s a coffee place (leave it empty until after the security check before heading to Starbuck’s for free hot water).
Hi Chriselle!
What is your go-to lens that you use the most frequently for your DSLR?
Chriselle dear, can you please do a full packing video? I travel a lot between LA and the Bay Area and I always spend hours packing. >_<
Congratulations on being a judge!

Lovely post. Really helpful!
I have always wandered why people have to take so many things in the carry on? why do you need a toothbrush on the flight? can’t you just brush your teeth when you get to your destination. And I didn’t know you have to use glasses, why don’t you want to wear glasses? They can be very fashionable.
I don’t know whether it’s just me or if everyone else experiencing problems with
your site. It appears as if some of the text in your posts are running off the screen. Can somebody else please comment and let me
know if this is happening to them too? This might be a problem with
my browser because I’ve had this happen before.
Thanks

After the time Alitalia lost my luggage for three days, I learned: always pack a change of clothes and underwear in the carry on; never check charging supplies; pack as much toiletries and makeup in the carry-on as possible and put a pair of nice shoes in the carry on.
Love this post! I’m currently in LA so these are great tips for me 🙂

Cool picks! I like to carry beauty samples in my carry on to avoid the liquid problem and also to create a spa in the sky.
Check out my post; http://www.blushandbeyond.com/2014/06/10/travel-how-to-arrive-at-your-destination-looking-fresh/
It worked for me on my 20+ hours of flight to Singapore last month!
This is great list, as I continue to increase my experience in travel I love looking at things that help make the trip as comfortable as possible. Especially with 14hr trips! I will definitely keep this in mind! Thanks Chriselle~!
Great list! Sleep masks are so essential.

I tend to keep my beauty and entertainment items in my personal bag/backpack so that I have room in my carry on luggage for an extra outfit, shoes, and valuables just in case the plane loses my luggage!
Love these travel posts! Definitely going to look into those beauty products! ^__^
