Well Told Lake Map Mug
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
A crucial part of travel is finding a way to reminisce about the memories you’ve made. Well Told has a unique way to help you do this every day. They create amazing products where they use maps to remind you of special places. These make perfect gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, engagements, housewarmings…and much more! I also have their etched glass wine glasses and carafe with street maps of Boston and I always get compliments on them. Take a peek at these beauties.

Lake Map Mug
($21.95)
You know there is no place as special to us as Ossipee Lake! I was so touched to receive this beautiful mug that helps remind us of our special place when we’re not there. This 15 oz ceramic mug has the coordinates of the lake on it as well as a detailed map of the area. It even has all the bays listed. I like that they are microwave and dishwasher safe, so you can enjoy more lake time!

National Geographic Kids Books
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
National Geographics has the ability to transport kids to amazing destinations around the world. My family has always been a fan of their books and they are perfect to bring along on vacation to read on a plane, in your hotel room before bed, or on a hammock on an island. It’s a wonderful way to keep them off of electronics. Not only is it for kids…adults will devour these books as well. In these crazy times, where we can’t travel as much as we’d love to, it’s a wonderful way to take “trips” around the world.

This book is packed with useful tips and solutions to everyday problems from a messy backpack to stage fright, a drippy ice pop to smelly shoes. It’s a great book when you have a few extra minutes. My girls put it in the back seat of our car for when we’re stuck in traffic on road trips.

Bad Ace Men’s Skincare
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
When it comes to skincare, why should women have all the fun? I find that many men’s skincare lines have scents that are overpowering, but all of these from Bad Ace were pleasant and light. They don’t have a floral smell so men will love them but they are not overly masculine so women can use them as well. My husband loved using these this summer after boating, swimming, and being outside in the sun and wind.

REVY Skincare
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
As a mom of teen girls, I’m very conscious of what products they put on their skin. REVY skincare was developed in response to their son’s Neurofibromatosis (NF1) diagnosis. It was interesting to learn that the US bans ONLY 10 ingredients from skincare products, while Europe bans 1,400. REVY products are truly clean. They use ingredients such as lemongrass, witch hazel, aloe, tea tree, willow bark, and grapefruit.
WHAT PRODUCTS DID WE GET?
THE REVY SKINCARE TRAVEL KIT
$45.00
Travelers will love that they have a travel set that comes packaged in a useful cosmetics bag. It includes:
CLEANSE: FOAMING GEL CLEANSER: a natural and gentle foaming gel cleanser with toner that removes all traces of pollution and excess oil without stripping the skin and also locks in moisture. The lovely smell of grapefruit and lemongrass will invigorate you!
PROTECT: LIGHTWEIGHT DAILY MOISTURIZER: a lightweight, quick-absorbing moisturizer that guards against everyday stressors, free radicals, and environmental stressors without clogging your pores. I love that this moisturizer calms and cools your face. The grapefruit scent will wake you up so you’re ready for the day!
REPAIR: PH-BALANCED NIGHT CREAM: This nutrient-rich formula clarifies blemishes, balances your skin’s pH and reverses UV and IR damage, all while giving your skin the hydration and healing it needs. It is not heavy on your skin or oily, which I feel lots of overnight creams are.

Love, Indus Face Masks
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
These masks are perfect to bring with you while traveling. They would be a wonderful treatment to do in your hotel room after a long plane ride. Ugh… I don’t know what happens to my skin on an airplane! Travel can damage your skin through wind, sun, sand, and sweat, and you may regret it if you wait until you get home to detox it. You will feel the results as soon as you are done and it’s a simple. And affordable, way to focus on your skin while on adventures. And since it only takes 8 minutes, there’s no reason to put it off.

Travel Kit/Sample Set
Precious Potion + Detox Mask
$8 • (Value $17)
Velvet 08 Broadway Bright Detox Mask:
So why would you need a mask while traveling? Product build-up, pollution, congestion, excess sebum – all lead to clogged pores and make it difficult for your skin to “breathe” and recover. When slathered onto your skin, this rich, indulgent mask helps draw out impurities, and polishes your skin. I’ve used lots of masks, but I absolutely LOVE this one!
Amrutini Precious Potion:
As we age, our skin becomes more fragile, and loses its inherent strength and elasticity. Therefore, they focus on intense nourishment, and rebuilding skin’s inherent strength and firmness, leaving it feeling rejuvenated while reducing the appearance of fine lines. This lotion can be used to strengthen, nourish and revitalize your skin. You will immediately feel the difference after doing this treatment!

Your Oil Tools
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THEM
I love bringing essential oils with me when I’m traveling. I create blends for different uses…relaxation, energizing, and for balance. There are many ways to incorporate them into your travels…bath salts, pillow sprays, roll-ons… just to name a few. Your Oil Tools is the perfect place to get all of your essential oil needs. You name it…they have it.
WHAT PRODUCTS DID WE GET?
Everyday Essential Guidebook
Cooking with Essential Oils
Everyday Essentials A-Z Guide
These books are perfect guides to essential oils. They will tell you which to use, what they are best used for, and what they are best blended with. I love that they inspire you to try new projects. I can’t wait to make a sun relief salve, room refresh spray, and a new pillow spray. These books are a wonderful introduction to oils but they can also be used by experts.
Shower Steamer (lavender & chamomile)
Espresso Shake n’ Go Face Masks (chocolate & coffee)
Loofah
These are wonderful for a stay-at-home spa night! The lavender is a wonderful way to end a stressful day and it filled my shower with a lovely, tranquil scent. The face mask smelled amazing and it tightened my skin. It is a great product to wake you up and revitalize you!
I love to blend my own oils so I really like these containers with rolling caps. They are small so you can create lots of different rollers. They also included a portable case that you can bring with you while traveling!
