Bachelorette Survival Kit Ideas
First, let’s get into the nitty-gritty of putting together a bachelorette survival kit. Afterall, that’s what brought you here, right? I’ve included a wealth of ideas below, and linked some of the items I actually used in the survival kits I made for my Sister-in-Law’s bachelorette party.
To put yours together, think about the things that your guests might need throughout the party.
Bachelorette Party Survival Kit List
- Emergency Items: band-aids, safety pins, Tylenol pack, blister pads, antiseptic wipes, mini sewing kit
- Snacks: Late-night hunger pangs are real, so include some snacks like granola bars, fruit snacks, or trail mix in your kit.
- Hair accessories: extra bobby pins, hair scrunchies (see below for a way to make these even cuter!!), and mini hair spray or dry shampoo in case anyone needs a hair touch-up.
- Breath mints or gum: Keep everyone’s breath fresh with some breath mints or gum. These cute mini packs of tic tacs are perfect!
- Chapstick or lip gloss: No one’s got time for chapped lips! Include mini chapsticks in your kit for a flawless finish on the go.
- Tissues: Tears (both happy and sad) are common at bachelorette parties, so make sure to include some tissues in your kit. Here are some great tissue travel packs to include!
- Nail polish: If you’re planning on doing some DIY manicures, include some mini bottles of nail polish in your kit.
- Mini fan or hand-held misting fan: If you’re partying in a warm climate or indoors, a mini fan or hand-held misting fan can be a lifesaver. (these fans that plug into your cell phone are perfect for on the go!)
- Beauty Touch-ups: oil absorbing face-blotting sheets or facial mist can be a nice touch if you’re going to be out on the town all night.
- Hand Sanitizer: You’ll be interacting with a lot of people throughout the course of the party, so mini pocket hand sanitizers are always a good idea.
These are just a few ideas to get you started. Remember to tailor your bachelorette survival kit to your party’s specific needs and have fun with it!
