A super simple way to book a place to stay in minutes is with the Overnight app–even if you didn’t plan ahead and it’s a last-minute thing. It’s kinda like a push-button staycation app. The app’s creators said they wanted to help more people see more of the world by making it easier, cheaper and faster to find lodging. Available on both ioS and Andriod platforms.
Kiss your hair blues goodbye! The Cast Beauty app takes the guesswork out of how your hair and skin will weather (pun intended) the elements. With personalized skin and hair tips, Cast is the first and only app that uses weather data to get you through your next destination. Available on both iOS and Android platforms.
Tzumi Pocket Juice Portable Battery
A good external battery can charge all of your devices together. There’s nothing worse than being in that perfect moment and discovering you have no power left to take a picture–let alone use a flash. The Tzumi Pocket Juice, a high-capacity, portable battery (10,000 mAh) , can charge multiple devices simultaneously or a single device multiple times. With a sleek, lightweight design, it will fit conveniently into your travel bag for quick, on-the-go use. Get one before you need it and have all the juice your devices need.
Overpacking clothes and shoes for a trip is common, but the same can be true for tech devices. Have you ever packed all of your tech gadgets, promising to hammer out some report or write that epic novel that’s on your bucket list? The reality is, some of our best trips are also respite and should give us more space to enjoy our new surroundings without having to lug an extra 20+pounds around. Tablets are the perfect choice and provide lightweight accessibility to your email, news, and more. The Amazon Fire Tablet is cute and cost-effective option.
