A few weeks ago, I went on vacation and forgot to bring eye makeup remover. I went to the local CVS and bought CVS CLEANSING & MAKEUP REMOVER TOWELETTES. You simply wipe your face with one and it takes off your makeup and cleans your face at the same time. No water or rinsing required. They contain chamomile and vitamin E. They are hypoallergenic and dermatologist tested. My skin felt clean and fresh after using one of these. It didn’t dry out my skin. I would say that it removed 99% of the makeup on my face, including the very heavy waterproof eyeliner and mascara that I was wearing. I would definitely buy these again. They are perfect for travel or camping. You can buy a pack of 15 pre-moistened wipes for about $2.50.

Maxwell House International Cafe French Vanilla Iced Latte Single Serve packets are surprisingly good. They come in a box of six individual to-go packets. You just mix them with 8 oz of cold milk, and your drink is ready. You can use any type of milk that you like, including cow, soy, rice, coconut, or almond milk. It tastes just as good as Starbucks Iced Vanilla Latte, with less sugar and a lower price. A similar drink at Starbucks has approximately 27 grams of sugar, but the Maxwell House French Vanilla Iced Latte only has about 14 grams of sugar. This product is made with real sugar, not imitation sweeteners. It is also Kosher. It comes in hazelnut flavor as well.This is great for taking to work or packing in your lunch. You can buy a box of Maxwell International Cafe French Vanilla Iced Latte Single Serve Coffee Drinks for about $2.75 at most grocery and retail stores.

I recently reserved a room at a hotel through Hotwire.com and saved A LOT of money. I booked a hotel which would have been $399.40 for two nights for only $177.50 on Hotwire.com. THIS IS A HUGE SAVINGS! To make it even better, the hotel where I reserved my room got overbooked, so Hotwire made reservations for me at another hotel FOR FREE. They are not allowed to give you a lesser quality hotel when this happens, so they have to put you up at a hotel of equal or greater value and pay the difference themselves. So I ended up paying $177.50 to stay for two nights at an EXCELLENT hotel that would have cost me approximately $458.00! How can you go wrong with that deal? I went from a standard hotel room to a suite with a kitchen, living room area, and a HUGE flatscreen TV! It was so nice! I would definitely recommend this website if you are looking for deals on travel. They also have flights and rental cars available.

The Colgate Wisp Mini-Brush Disposable Toothbrush is a must-have for your purse, bookbag, or car. You do not need water to brush your teeth with this, and you do not need to rinse afterwards. It contains a breath freshening bead to fight bad breath. This is very convenient for freshening up on the go. It is great when you can’t get to a sink, or when you are traveling. My teeth felt a lot cleaner after using this. The pointed end can also be used as a toothpick. You can buy a package of four Colgate Wisp Mini-Brush Disposable Toothbrushes for about $2.25 at most drug and retail stores.

Copco’s Eco-First Acadia To Go Travel Mug is one of my must-have items to bring to work every day. It is made of double-wall BPA-free plastic for superior insulation. It keeps your beverages hot but protects your hands from the heat. The Eco-First Travel Mug is dishwasher and microwave safe. I use it to make hot tea or hot chocolate in the microwave at work. The lid fits tightly to prevent leaks and the 16oz capacity makes it much more convenient than having to refill those stupid 8oz styrofoam office cups all day. The easy-grip bands come in assorted colors like blue, red, pink, green, and brown. This cup is also good for the environment because it is designed to be reused hundreds of times. You can buy the Copco Eco-First Acadia To Go Travel Mug at many home and department stores such as Target, Meijer, Walmart, and Sears. I bought mine for $5.99 at Bed, Bath, & Beyond.

Batiste Original Dry Shampoo is a great way to freshen your hair when you don’t have time to wash it. You simply shake the can then spray the product evenly onto your roots. Massage it into your scalp for a few minutes. Then brush and style your hair. This is a great time saver when you are running late. It is also handy when traveling, after exercising, or any other time you need to freshen up. Batiste Original Dry Shampoo contains powders that absorb excess oils and grease from your hair. It leaves a nice fresh scent and adds volume and body. Batiste Dry Shampoo comes in many other scents, such as Blush, Tropical, Boho, and Diva. I bought this product at Sally Beauty Supply for about $6.00. You can also find it online at many different beauty websites.
