It's gifting season! The time of the year when we start checking our lists twice and heading to the stores, physically or virtually, to find items our loved ones will love.

Finding good gift ideas can be hard, so I like looking at gift guides to get some ideas on what I could buy. This gift guide is for those who love to travel. Most of these are products I use and love when I travel because they make my packing and traveling easier.

If you have a MacBook, you know the struggle — nothing connects without an adapter.

I recently upgraded to this USB-C Multi-Port Adapter, and it’s been a total game-changer. Now I can easily plug in my microphone, HDMI cable, USB drive, or SD card all at once!

It’s sleek, compact, and super lightweight, which makes it perfect for my workspace or travel bag. Setup was simple too. Just plug it in, accept the prompt, and you’re good to go.

I went with the silver-white color, but it also comes in fun options like red, pink, and purple.

Shop this exact adapter below.

I keep most of my makeup in my makeup table drawers but some key items I like to keep on this makeup carousel. It’s plastic but very sturdy. It rotates so I can easily grab each item I want. It looks small but does hold quite a lot.

My favorite drugstore shampoo - the TGIN Moisture Rich Sulfate Free Shampoo. It lathers really well, cleans my relaxed hair of everything, doesn’t dry my hair out.

The Kiehl’s Ferulic Brew Antioxidant Facial Treatment with Lactic Acid claims to visibly smooth and even skin’s texture and tone, reduce fine lines and leave skin with a healthy-looking glow. For the weeks that I used it I liked how glowy my skin started to look. I also liked that it didn’t irritate my skin which can sometimes be sensitive.

The NYX Shine Killer is my favorite makeup primer for my oily skin. When I don’t use it I notice a difference in how oily I get throughout the day and how my makeup wears. #oilyskin #makeup #makeupprimer

Saw this on sale and had to share. I've used the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer before and thought it did a good job of making my brows look fuller, but not fake. The only thing that held me back from purchasing again was the price. That's why this sale is one to check out. I like the shade dark brown because it blends well with my dark brown hair and doesn’t look as stark as black does on my brows.

When I don’t wrap my hair at night, I wear a night cap or bonnet. The short night caps weren’t working for me anymore so I switched to longer ones because my relaxed hair can lay flat at night. #haircare #hairproducts #hairtips #relaxedhair

With a darker skin tone it's been hard for me to find blush shades that don't look like I'm wearing blush. Shades that look natural and aren't too bright or too light. It was so hard that for several years I didn't wear blush.

I eventually go to the point that I wanted to wear blush as part of my makeup look for a couple of events so I started my search for one that could work for me. I ended up finding two shades that work. They are the Milani Cheek Kiss Cream Blush in shades Merlot Moment and Nude Kiss.

Finding a blush that looks natural on darker skin hasn’t been easy for me. Most are either too bright or too light. Until I found the Milani Cheek Kiss Cream Blush.

The shade Nude Kiss gives my skin a soft, natural flush that looks effortless, not heavy. I also love Merlot Moment when I want a deeper, more evening-appropriate look. Both shades blend beautifully and melt into the skin like a dream.

Shop the exact shades I use below.

Dad's sometimes have good advice. Mine recommended this glass cleaner. It's the best one I've ever used. It doesn't smell like vinager, it leaves my windows and mirror looking streak free. And it's not messy since it's a foam versus a liquid. #homecleaning #cleaningsupplies #glasscleaner

If I didn’t have this treadmill I probably wouldn’t be able to exercise as much as I do. Love how it doesn’t take up much space so I can leave it up in my living room allowing me to walk while working or watching TV. It’s probably one of my best Amazon finds. #amazonfinds #workout #getfit

I’ve been using the Mielle White Peony Leave-In Conditioner for a few years now, and it’s been a great option for my freshly washed hair. It’s super lightweight, smells amazing, and leaves my relaxed hair smooth, shiny, and soft. Plus, it offers a bit of heat protection which perfect for those times I forget my heat protectant spray.

I only use it on wet hair since it’s a liquid leave-in and liquid leave-ins on my dry hair tend to cause frizz.

If my relaxed hair needs a little moisture pick me up close to my next wash, I pull this out. It’s the Mielle Avocado Moisturizing Hair Milk. It’s thick but light so my hair isn’t weighed down. It smells nice and brings good moisture to my hair. #relaxedhair #hairproducts #mielleorganics #ltkhair

#LTKBeauty

Some great products to try from the TGIN product line. I use a lot of TGIN products because of how much moisture they provide my relaxed hair. Plus, they don't cost a lot for the results that they provide.

Sometimes the machine I use to clean my clothes needs a good cleaning. To give my washing machine a wash, I use this Tide Washing Machine Cleaner with Oxi. They help eliminate odors and remove buildup and residue.

When I use it, I notice my laundry looks cleaner and my washing machine seems to run a little smoother.

Looking for a quality yet budget-friendly makeup sponge? Check out the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge. It works great for liquid and cream products such as foundations, skin tints, tinted moisturizers, and BB creams. I typically use it when applying a concealer or liquid foundation.

They are really soft and expand quite a lot when they are wet, allowing me to blend larger areas of my face more easily. #makeupfind

When I want to pamper my relaxed hair, I pull out this hair steamer. It's easy to put together. It's really mobile because it can be placed on a desk, dresser, or counter for me to use.

When I steam my relaxed hair, I typically do it after I've shampooed and have a deep conditioner on my hair. Other times, I'll use it when I do a pre-shampoo treatment.

Bought this computer stand several years ago, and it's still going strong. I like how lightweight it is, that I can adjust the height to work best for me, and my computer doesn't slip and slide.

When I want to do a roller set or dry my hair without using a handheld dryer, this standing hooded hair dryer is what I use.

It's got a front flap that lifts up so I can slip in and out with my rollers on. This hooded dryer is easy to move around because it's on wheels, so I never have to pick it up and carry it.
