Personal essentials
Personal essentials can often be overlooked when packing for a weekend camping trip, so we would recommend that you put together a travel bag that contains personal items that you use daily.
Of course, keep in mind that a weekend spent camping will likely fly by, so you won’t need to bring the entire contents of your bathroom cabinet with you. However, you can still make sure that you bring your absolute non negotiables with you to ensure you stay clean and healthy. For example, a toothbrush (and toothpaste!), a hairbrush, toiletries, antibacterial wipes and so on.
Personal hygiene essentials
No matter how long you’re camping, there are some must-haves in that toiletry bag that can’t go a miss. Take note of the list below when packing your toiletries:
- Toothbrush and toothpaste
- Deodorant
- Hairbrush
- Antibacterial wipes
- Suncream
- Medications
- Sanitary productsÂ
- Toilet roll
- A towel
- Insect repellent
- Lip balm
- Sanitiser
Now, the below aren’t classed as ‘essential’, but if you’ve got room, why not pack:
- A compact mirror
- Makeup supplies
- Makeup remover
- Cotton pads
A portable camping shower
When I do, I always bring a thermo blanket as well. It's so warm and cozy!
It's a good idea to bring a camping storage too even thoug I've never done it. That's becasue usually I camp for no more than 2-4 days in the company of 2-3 people.
Thumbs up for the useful info! :)
