Not all products work for everyone. Just because your friend uses a particular product that helps with skin irritation, doesn’t mean it would work for you!
Females can get their periods at irregular times, so it’s good to be prepared. Plan to include items like a few tampons/pads, fresh pairs of underwear, and pain medication for cramps.
Fancy purses probably aren’t a good option. It might get dirty or ruined if hand sanitizer or another liquid gets on it. Backpacks are likely too large and bulky. You’ll need a hygiene kit on the go, so it will be difficult to keep carrying a large backpack everywhere. In fact, your mission is for it to be compact and fit within your daily bag. A fanny pack or pencil pouch could be a good choice. Black bags or bags of a neutral color (black, gray, tan) can work well because they are discreet.
Don’t plan to include unwanted items like leg massage cream or your favorite necklace. Think about things you need and use daily or monthly, not random items. Remember, this is not a random storage container. This kit is specifically used for staying clean and fresh. You can even ask your parents or relatives what they personally think you need.
Pack a few items like a toothbrush and toothpaste if there aren’t any places to buy them nearby. Put a razor in your hygiene kit if you need to shave. If you’re boarding a plane, be sure to only pack items that can be in carry-on luggage.
Limit using flavored or scented lip balms. The chemicals in some scents and added flavorings can irritate your skin or cause allergies, these can dry your lips and make them feel even more chapped.
Try a hand sanitizer with no alcohol, as they make your hands’ dry and stiff.
Small cordless razors are reasonable for a hygiene kit just for men.
The dirt that gets under your nails may contain a lot of germs, so keeping your nails cut is important.
Petroleum jelly is a good alternative to lip balm as well. Try avoiding flavored lip balm. Plain is the better way to go for chapped lips.
