Lo and Sons The Waverly 2, $210

Whether you call them fanny packs or belt bags, the once-lampooned trend that peaked in the ‘80s is back and here to stay. The issue? How bulky and unstylish most are.

Noble Panacea The Exceptional Vitamin C Booster, $160

Vitamin C is a workhorse when it comes to skincare ingredients – it plumps up and brightens complexions, and boosts your sunscreen’s ability to protect against photo damage – but not all versions are created equal.

To reconcile that, Noble Panacea launched this intensive four-week treatment in 30 individual doses. Each packet ensures peak freshness and potency, and is loaded with 8 other sources of vitamin C in addition to 20% pure L-Ascorbic Acid.

So pack this purifying bar soap on your next trip. Sustainable palm oil and shea butter ensure a rich lather, while salt and white pumice gently buff away dead skin.
