EDITOR'S NOTE

I’m about to embark on what my mom calls “home games” versus “away games,” aka the back-to-back holiday travel of heading to my parents and in-laws. With being gone for nearly two weeks, I make sure to pack things that help me keep my regular routine, including:

• A TSA-friendly version of the cleanser I use on my face and body (it also works well as a shaving gel on the go).

• These hydrating eye patches for a quick moment of me-time. These are a recent discovery, and they’re quickly becoming my new favorite eye mask.

• These cloud-like sneakers for busy travel days and daily walks.

• My e-reader of choice, which allows me to binge read without weighing my suitcase down.

Wherever you are, however you celebrate, we’re wishing you a warm and relaxing holiday season. We’ll be back next week to finish out the year, and we thank you for continuing to Skimm with us.
