There’s no hiding the eldest daughter of it all when you roll up to the airport with this weighted eye mask and a 3-in-1 charging cable you somehow snagged for less than $10.

Promising review: "Took this on my first cruise. Anytime that I started to feel woozy I’d reach for it. I’m sure the required act of deep breathing helped a lot — breathing in the fragrance of the essential oil is very calming and effective. Worked for me! Wonderful!" —Willy&Lilly

HELLO, I AM OBSESSED WITH THESE. Despite all the rave reviews, I was definitely skeptical of space-saving bags that didn't require a vacuum, and even as they were actively squishing my clothes into oblivion, I still couldn't quite believe it. I had easily two suitcases worth of clothes I wanted to pack for a three-week trip to London, and I managed to neatly pack the entirety of my wardrobe in one roller carry-on bag. Truly, all I had to do was put my clothes in the bag, push them to the bottom, and then sit on it to get the air out before sealing it up. I had tons of extra bags and made a habit of taking them with me in case other people joining me on trips need them to be able to pack souvenirs on the way home. I'm never taking a long trip without these again — these are worth every damn penny. 

Psst — just note that airlines will still enforce weight limits, so don't fly TOO close to the sun packing these up!!

Perilogics is a small business creating hyper-functional tool holsters and bags for carrying your stuff on the go. 

Promising review: "I bought this nifty gadget about six months ago for a multi-leg, ultra-long-haul trip, and it more than held up the entire duration. I was able to finagle it to fit the tray tables on different planes, and like others, I find the height just nice when clamped onto a stowed tray table. It also works on my roller carry-on handle during layovers." —Earendil

Fomin is a small business that specializes in travel soaps and wipes. 

Promising review: "Best thing ever. I work outdoors and I use this for my job. Doesn’t require lots of water either, but gets the job done. I actually bought it for my fishing trip and can’t wait to see how well it does." —Amazon Customer

Check out a TikTok of the Airplane Pockets tray table cover in action. 

Airplane Pockets is a small business that specializes in sanitary, portable travel organization products. 

I used this on a roundtrip from NYC to Tokyo, both with connecting flights in Canada, and cannot sing its praises enough. It fit all four of the different tray tables I used it on and was so ridiculously handy for keeping track of all my littler odds and ends like AirPods, the plane's headphones, earplugs, a sleep mask, a book, gum, a scrunchie, and little snacks. The hanging end of it easily tucked into the built-in sleeve of the seat in front of me for takeoff and when other passengers needed to scoot past me in my aisle seat. Usually, I feel like a hot mess and get frustrated rooting around in the grimy sleeve for my stuff, and this was such a refreshing solution! Several flight attendants even asked where I got it to buy one for themselves! 

Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS, that specializes in antimicrobial toothbrushes designed to get deeper cleans even patients with "great" dental hygiene might miss with traditional brush and floss routines. 

I've been using the regular-size version of this for over a year now and I LOVE it! I used to use an electric toothbrush, but I feel like I'm getting a much more satisfying clean from these — especially because I tend to get yellow stains between my teeth no matter *how* much I floss, and these bristles seem to actually target that a lot more effectively. My teeth feel genuinely ~squeaky clean~ after I use this, too. 

Promising review: "This toothbrush is a new staple item for my on the go Invisalign bag. When I need to brush my teeth and don't have time to floss before putting my aligners back in, this brush makes sure my teeth and mouth feel clean and removes debris in-between my teeth. The bristles are soft, this toothbrush is sturdy and the different lengths of bristles help remove debris or help floss your teeth on the go. This brush also dries very fast in-between uses as well." —V. Brown

Promising review: "Love these. These are soft and very comfortable, and they seriously black out every bit of light. I love them. I would highly recommend. I’ll probably never sleep without them again." —AJ

I bought these at the last second for a flight when I lost my way more expensive sleep mask, and can safely say "good riddance" to that old pair — I love this version way more. It's perfectly contoured so it doesn't rub my eyes or mess up my makeup if I'm traveling, the weight is satisfying without being distracting, and it adjusts super quickly and easily without every getting caught in my hair. Also the pink is just absolutely precious, so my little Glinda x Barbie heart is most pleased to show it off.

Promising review: "I used this pillow on flights from the eastern U.S. coast to Hawaii and back. The pillow was very supportive, and I appreciated that I could use it to lie back or to the side. The fastener strings were a nice touch to keep it secure, especially while sleeping. I sat in the window and aisle seats, and the pillow worked great for both (i.e., don’t need a window seat to lean against the wall). I have chronic neck pain, and the pillow helped me manage the pain during the long flights!" —Katie Sandlin

Get it from Amazon for $23.99 (available in two styles).

Promising review: "I purchased this because I saw them all over TikTok. As someone with chronic illness, I honestly carry around like 10 different pill bottles for 'just in case' situations. This little pill box is a great size. I love that it’s magnetic, and each little compartment fits a good amount of pills. It won’t fit a ton of Tums if that’s what you’re looking for, but the amount of space this has saved in my bag is amazing!" —Jasmin Salas

Promising review: "These are perfect for the one-item sink cleaning that occurs when traveling. I highly recommend it for those travel excursions where you want to clean one or two clothing items." —LIFE_COMPOSED 

Get a pack of three (with three mini loads each) for $9.99. 

Promising review: "I wanted a silicone band to wear at the gym and for travel, but wanted something different from the wide black bands that are so popular. This ring is cute, and it's so comfortable I'm not aware I'm wearing it. I may be back to get more colors!" —Lindajf

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in sizes 4–10, four colors, and a three-pack) 

Promising review: "These are my best value summer purchase. I take my kids to the splash park all summer long and these come in so handy for their wet clothes. It's waterproof, roomy, and a cute alternative to using a plastic bag." —Brenda

Check out a TikTok of the foot masks in action. 

I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days! 

Promising review: "Very soothing. My husband and l used these on our European vacation, and they definitely felt good on our feet!" —KS2018

Get a set of three pairs from Amazon for $11.97.  

Bonus: This works with your existing suitcase, unlike versions of this that come pre-built into more expensive versions! 

Promising review: "I was able to pack seven outfits and have way more space in this organizer. I just packed the clothes in the organizer, closed it up, and placed it in my carry on. Once I got to the hotel, I just hung it in my closet. It would be perfect for cruises since their is never any drawer space and very little room to move around." —jess

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in four colors and several sets). 

Promising review: "This is the best extension cord, especially for travel. It's compact and you can use plugs or USB with several ports. You'll never need a bunch of outlets again." —Paula A. Austin

Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in five styles). 

Promising review: "I bought this for my recent European trip and it worked great. It’s compact, easy to use, and offers adequate pressure. Each fill of the tank lasts me one session, so it’s perfect for me. I used to pack my full-size Waterpik; no more — this is one of my better buys for traveling!" —Phuoc Lee

Here's what BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly has to say about them: "This is a product that I put in travel stories over and over and over again, and would always think, 'Hmm, I should buy some.' Once I booked my first-ever cruise, I knew that I needed to invest in these hangers to make the most of what I presumed would be a tiny closet for my cabin. These were super easy to slip into my super-packed suitcase and plenty sturdy for holding up a variety of stuff. In my pic above, you'll see one collapsed and then one in use, with dips perfect for spaghetti or thin straps. So many hotel and rental places' hangers don't have those little dips, and my slip dresses are always slipping off of them. With these, I was able to put a variety of garments on them without anything slipping off — in fact, they work better at that than my regular velvet hangers I have at home!" 

Promising review: "They are so lightweight and yet so durable. I can’t say enough good things about them. I love the fact that they come in their own bag so that I wouldn’t have several hangers flying around my suitcase. I love that now I don’t have to worry about how many hangers the hotel has. Another big bonus is that if you decide to do laundry, you can now hang up your clothes to dry. The hangers are very light, and they add relatively nothing to the overall weight of my suitcase. It is the perfect solution for my travel needs." —P. Thomassen

Psst — Loop makes a variety of "hidden" earplugs for concerts, focus, and even for kids. Check them all out on Loop's Amazon storefront! 

Promising review: "These are my third pair of Loop earplugs. I like using them in the car, on planes, at concerts, in class, and while sleeping. This is my first pair of the silicone ones which were much more comfortable to sleep in which I appreciated. If you are more sensitive to noises, I definitely recommend keeping these on you." —Cash Tieman

Promising review: "I love Boka products, especially these chewable mouthwash tablets. I keep a few in my bag and work lockets when I want a clean mouth feel and fresh breath feel. Great for long travel days too!" —Tawny

Claasico is a small business that specializes in wallet and tech accessories. 

Promising review: "Loved everything about it. Only problem is I can never find my purse since it isn't necessary 99% of the time. Hands-free carrying is great, and it can even fit a pen, stylus, and checks in with my phone. I can also attach my keys! This is a great purchase. Shoppers at stores have asked me where did I buy it because they wanted one too." —Kindle Customer

Get it from Amazon for $28.30+ (available in nine styles). 

Promising review: "I recently took a cross-country flight with my three kids. I really didn't want to worry about checked bags getting lost, so maximizing our carry-ons was a priority. This backpack fit an unfathomable amount of stuff! Lots of zippers and compartments for everything from shoes to laptops/iPads, easy access compartments for cell phones and boarding passes, I fit tons of neatly folded clothes. The best part was that fully loaded, it easily slid under the seat." —Kindle Customer

Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in four sizes and 38 styles). 

Promising review: "I am a flight attendant and sometimes have a hard time falling asleep while away in my hotels without my home white noise maker. This is compact and rechargeable so it is super easy to keep with me on my trips! It also has great volume range from very low to quite loud! I would recommend even for home use if you don’t have a ton of space but want to use a white noise machine." —Faith Morris

Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in 17 colors and in packs of two). 

Promising review: "This little travel umbrella is a lifesaver! It’s so compact that it fits perfectly in my purse, but don’t let the size fool you — it holds up great in both rain and sun. The UV protection is a bonus for sunny days, and the sturdy design has handled unexpected gusts like a champ. Opening and closing are smooth and easy, and the cute design adds a bit of flair. Perfect for anyone on the go who needs reliable weather protection without the bulk!" —California girl

Promising review: "I bought this wallet right before a business trip. I wanted something that was small, but still had room to carry necessities. This wallet did that and more. Besides my ID and credit cards, I carried my passport and organized my receipts. It held a lot but didn’t take up much room in my purse. It was also cute to carry alone as a small clutch. I’m actually planning to buy more as gifts." —Sherlethia

Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in 31 colors).

Promising review: "I only took carry-ons for a vacation, so I clipped my hat to my bag so I wouldn't have to wear or hold it. It worked great. It looked cute and was very secure. Never came off." —Mom

Alleyoop is a woman-owned small business that specializes in functional makeup products. 

Promising review: "I absolutely love this portable razor! It’s so convenient, especially when you forget to shave and need a quick touch-up. The kit comes with two razor heads, a spray bottle, and a shaving bar to help keep your skin smooth. It's TSA-approved, so you can even bring it on airplanes without worry! Plus, you can purchase replacement razor heads and the shaving bar when needed." —Life As Cerena

Rinseroo is a small business specializing in problem-solving cleaning, pet, and travel products. 

Promising review: "These covered various sizes of products — hair care, body wash, etc. Nothing leaked out of these whatsoever, even after a lid popped open during a flight. These prevented it from leaking out on the other contents of my luggage. Easy to use. Not flimsy. Very flexible. LOVE THESE!" —TAG

Get a four-pack from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in three styles and also in packs of eight). 

Promising review: "Love these! These are sturdy and large. I used them on a recent trip to pack boots and sneakers that I didnt want to touch my clothes. They also came in handy for putting in my backpack on hikes to keep food and drinks separate and safe from leaking. I used one for storing a wet bathing suit after a swim. So many uses and take up little space!" —Amazon Customer

Get a pack of five for $6.99+ (available in four colors and ten-packs). 

Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok a bunch of times and finally decided to get it. I hate the paper lint rollers, they never seem to work that well and I hate that I have to throw them away. This is awesome because it fits right in my bag, and I’m able to reuse it over and over. It’s super sticky and works great!" —Ella
