Buying the perfect Valentine’s Day gift for the traveler that has everything isn’t easy. Should you get them something that makes their next trip easier and more comfortable? Or something that they can enjoy once home, maybe with a loved one? These gift ideas run the spectrum across price points and uses so that your frequent-flying friends get a present that fits their busy lifestyle.
PIYA Skincare
This Ayurvedic-inspired brand uses organic products like turmeric and rose in its line of face and skincare products. Frequent travelers are subject to dry air in the sky and sometimes harsh sun and temperatures on the ground. The Glow Ritual Set combines a glow-up bar of soap and Vitamin C serum and moisturizing face lotion. The two creams come in TSA-friendly bottle sizes. This makes them ideal for travel. The bar of soap is the perfect accompaniment to return home to after the journey.
Eli & Elm Weighted Comforter
After sleeping in dozens of hotel room beds, returning home to one that is just right could be the best gift of all. The Eli & Elm weighted comforter is made as a 300 thread count, 100% cotton duvet that comes in different sizes for a variety of mattresses. The pre-sewn loops allow you to wrap your preferred duvet cover around it.
This comforter helps you to fall asleep faster, and hopefully stay resting longer, thanks to its wrap-around-you feeling that makes it feel snug without being hot. Eli & Elm calls it “gentle pressure” that helps release feel-good and rest-promoting hormones like dopamine, serotonin and oxytocin. And unlike many comforters where they can bunch in places, the micro-glass beads are evenly distributed into pouches so that the entire blanket feels evenly weighted.
Penetrex Joint and Muscle Care Cream
This fast-absorbing cream leaves no residue and is designed to soothe sore joints and muscles. Lugging heavy bags around is not ideal for your shoulders (neither is hunching over a laptop). Penetrex blends Arnica, Vitamin B6 and botanical extracts among its ingredients and is fragrance-free (unlike many other muscle-ache creams). The cream is smooth and non-greasy, leaving skin moisturized and muscles soothed. It comes in a pump bottle perfect for a work desk, but it also comes in a travel-sized, TSA-friendly container.
Luxury Scent Box Fragrance Subscription
Subscription service Luxury Scent Box (LUXSB) finds unique, designer fragrances from around the world and sends them to members in TSA-friendly, refillable, travel-sized spray bottles. If you like the scents they share, you can also purchase the full bottle. You can buy one-time or monthly subscriptions that you can update to the duration you choose. It’s a fun way to try more than 800 designer or niche brands that represent the latest trends.Some of the newest scents include L’Atelier Parfum’s Opus line of eau de parfum like aromatic herby Green Crush or rum and musk-scented Woodylicious. The service offers free shipping and the option to choose between 2ml or 9ml sprays making this a great gift for frequent travelers.
Ogio Pace Pro Suiter Duffel Bag
Have you ever struggled with trying to keep a suit or formal dress from getting wrinkled? Then, you understand the need for a travel bag that protects your items but also has a lot of space. The Ogio Pace Pro Suiter comes with numerous interior zippered pockets to keep everything organized. Most importantly, it has a large pouch to store a suit or dress so that your arrive wrinkle free.
I appreciate that this bag is lightweight and compact enough to fit into an overhead bin or within the trunk of a car. Often times when carrying just a duffel bag it is easy for important clothes to get wrinkled quickly, but the design of this bag solves that issue. There is even a compartment for your shoes.
