Traveling Hygiene Tips

There’s nothing quite so exhilarating as getting out on the road and experiencing the wonders that the world has to offer. In the face of this, however, it’s important to keep yourself fresh and looking your best. Travel can take a harrowing toll on our hygiene routine, but that’s no reason to leave your pores clogged, your teeth unbrushed, and your clothes used and rumpled. Even when sinks and showers become a distant memory you can keep yourself feeling refreshed.

How To Handle Your Hands

When you’re traveling the world there’s nothing more important to be able to chase away the various bugs and flu you’ll come across on your way. Just like when you’re safe at home it’s important to keep your hands clean to avoid getting sick. Hot soapy water is, of course, the best option, but you can’t carry that in a bottle in your bag. What you can carry is a bottle of hand sanitizer and use it religiously.

Remember To Care For Your Face

While you’re on your travels be sure to take the locations you’ll be traveling to into account. If you’ll be traveling in dry environments, be sure to bring moisturizer. Protect the skin on your face using sunblock, and use it everywhere else as well. To clear the grime of the road from your face you can also bring along special cleansing cloths and makeup remover pads that don’t require water to use.

Take Care Of Your Mouth

Halitosis is a persistent and difficult problem that faces the world traveler, and avoiding spicy and rich foods will only go so far towards ensuring you don’t scare off your fellow passengers. Gum is a standby that many people have used, but Colgate Wisps are a great innovation. These miniature toothbrushes will ensure you can take care of your breath until you can get a real brushing done. There are also mouth sprays available that will refresh your breath in the interim.

Keep Your Clothes Looking Fresh

When you look great, it helps you feel great, and that matters as much when traveling as it does at any other time. There are a host of wrinkle-free clothing available on the market that will look as fresh as if they’d just been ironed when they come out of your suitcase. There are also sprays that will help to release the wrinkles with just a smoothing pass of your hands, all great options to help you stay feeling great.
