The 6 Most Practical Items to Bring on Your Summer Glamping Trip
With summer comes glamping season!
Glamping is the perfect alternative to camping for those, like us, who aren't the biggest fans of the dirt and grime of camping. Instead, glamping brings amenities, whether it be carpeted floors, indoor plumbing, queen-sized mattresses or all of the above. That said, you'll still have to prepare for a glamping trip in similar ways to a normal camping adventure—don't leave without your hiking boots, first aid kit and bug spray.
Below, we've found six more items that you need to include on your list to make the next time you go glamping the most glamorous and fun time you've ever had.
Touchland x BLACKPINK Blue Sandalwood Limited Edition Hand Sanitizer: $10
If you're heading on a glamping trip, you'll probably get somewhat dirty while setting up. Or, you might simply want to stay germ-free in the wilderness.
Thankfully, leading hand sanitizer brand Touchland will make you feel clean and luxurious. Earlier this month, they released an adorable collaboration with K-pop icons BLACKPINK. This (fittingly) black and pink sanitizer is described as "mysterious and addicting" with notes of sandalwood, cedarwood, lemons and apples. The vegan, cruelty-free mist will last you 500 sprays for you and your friends to share throughout your camping trip.
Moroccanoil Mini Dry Shampoo: $12
At some point, you'll probably be outside, and if it's hot, you'll be sweating too, which can leave your hair sticky and gross. Depending on what kind of glamping resort you stay at, you might not have access to a shower, so you might have to opt for dry shampoo instead.
One of our favorite dry shampoos on the market comes from Moroccanoil. Besides smelling absolutely delicious with their signature warm, floral scent, this dry shampoo gets the job done for all hair types. Plus, they have shades specifically for light and dark hair.

Unbound Petite From Conair Cordless Flat Iron: $29.99
When you're on your glamping trip, you may not have a convenient place to look in the mirror and use your flat iron, but that doesn't mean the humidity should have the power to get you (and your hair) down. Thanks to cordless flat irons, touching up your hair on the go just got a lot easier. Combat the frizz wherever and whenever, even if that means whipping it out in the middle of the woods.
Bling Starbucks Venti Cold Cup: $61.99
Glamping, in itself, will already be a glamorous experience, but why not add to the glamor with a blinged-out cup from Starbucks?
Starbucks tumblers have always been some of our favorites. They do, in fact, keep your beverage cold for hours, which will be essential while you're out in the woods. And there are so many variants that you can choose from. We decided to link this iridescent Unicorn Jewel tumbler from their holiday collection, but you can also head over to your local café and see what they're offering.

Velvet Caviar Battery Power Pack: $75
There's no worse place for your phone to die than in the middle of the woods. This time, keep your phone protected with a charger that's also adorable. We love the Battery Power Packs available at Velvet Caviar—they have rave reviews for their minimal size and are said to be 400% more powerful than other leading brands.
Fujifilm Instax Mini 12 Instant Camera: $80
You'll probably want to take a few photos while you're on your glamping getaway. Sure, snapping a picture on your phone is great, but who doesn't love the vibe of a Polaroid photo? Bring enough film, and you can document the whole weekend without worrying about taking up too much space on your phone. Pictures from instant cameras can be super cute if you purchase fun film, too!
