Good News for Your Cabin Bag

The cure for leaving behind your headphones on your airport seat or after a mind-numbing long flight: headphones that stay attached to you without become tangled or snagged. Designed to be worn wrapped around your wrist when not in use, Wraps Wristband Headphones feature 10mm titanium speakers and noise-canceling technology that make them ideal for flights, train journeys and working out at the hotel gym. The ear buds have noise-insulating foam tips that block out background noise Wraps(and the guy snoring in the seat beside you), are attached to an adjustable black faux leather bracelet and come in colors that match smartphone and tablet colors in gold, rose gold, silver and space gray. In addition, Wraps are available in six different Classic colors on a braided fabric cable; a Talk series in street fashion colors with a universal one-button microphone; and Natural in a choice of wooden beads or natural tone faux leather cable. Connection is via a 3.5mm, gold-plated jack, with a frequency response of 20Hz–20kHz. The optimal universal one-button microphone and cable splitter makes it easy to pause your music to answer a call.

When it comes to packing, a recent study conducted by the personal care company H2O+Beauty reveals U.S. travelers are less than pleased about having to spend extra travel dollars on products that conform to TSA guidelines: Travel-sized products can be up to twice as expensive as their full-sized counterparts. “Travelers don’t have to resign themselves to the inconvenience of purchasing extra products that may be spill-proof or expensive,” says Joy Chen, CEO, H2O+Beauty, who explains the company has created spill-proof solid options that include the newly introduced Cleansing Stick and Powder Exfoliator. Though they’re TSA-friendly solids, they perform like liquids when water is added during use.

Also new and just the right size for travel, Somersets (based in Henley-on-Thames, England) offers 100-percent natural shaving oils designed for men and women that provide maximum glide in small, long-lasting, TSA-approved containers. Options include Women’s Sensitive Shave Oil, Extra Delicate Women’s Shave Oil, Maximum Glide Tough Stubble English Shaving Oil for men, Maximum Glide Original English Shaving Oil and Maximum Glide Extra Sensitive English Shaving Oil — all available in 15ml (.05 ounce) bottles that each deliver up to 90 facial shaves. Herbal plant extracts including tea tree, rosemary, cedar wood, aloe vera, primrose or lavender soothe freshly de-stubbled skin, while the lubricating oil protects against cuts and razor burns and provides moisturization. Bonus: No animal testing is involved.
