The Daily Kit

The Daily Kit is the smallest kit, made to be with you everyday. It isn't designed for any specific situation, it is assembled with quick fixes to common everyday accidents.

It's useful both for myself and others around me. I also love seeing the pop of colors in my bag. I always make sure I have this kit on me before heading out. Here's why I selected each item:

I often found myself needing a quick fix—whether for a spill, a blister, or just a refresh—and not having it. Over time, I assembled a kit containing all the practical, everyday essentials in one convenient place.

This kit is designed specifically to live in your everyday bag so you are never caught unprepared.

Here are my tips and tricks on how I use each of the Daily Kit items:

Chapstick: These tiny chapstick have great flavors (cherry, citrus and ?) and last a surprisingly long time (don't forget to push the bottom for more!)

Sunscreen: A daily necessity for skin protection, especially in San Francisco where UVs are high and sunny park days are a-plenty.

Bandaids: Not only are these pastel bandaids very pretty, I'm actually always surprised at how often I end up needing them. Crucial for unexpected shoe blisters from walking or minor paper cuts. They are always a big hit with the girlies!

TicTacs: A fun and quick way to freshen breath after a meal or a coffee! The mini size of the Tic Tac box makes it always a popular item with my friends. Like an instant flashback to the past ;) Each box comes with around 10 Tic Tacs. Several flavors are available:

Eye drops: These are simple lubricating eye drops from the BRAND. They provide instant relief when something gets stuck in your eye, and help with dry, irritated, or screen-fatigued eyes. They're not necessarily used every day, but always immensely helpful when needed.

Lenses wipes: I can never have too many of these. Cleans smudges off prescription glasses or sunglasses instantly without scratching the lenses. They also work perfectly for cleaning a dirty phone screen.

Toilet wipes: Essential for public restrooms that run out of paper. They provide a quick, hygienic, and comfortable solution when you are on the go. I always make sure to have several on me (this kit comes with 3).

Purell wipes: I like to use these to disinfect items I use a lot, such as my phone screen, my keys, Used to wipe down sticky cafe tables, grocery cart handles, or public transit seats before sitting or touching them.

Pill case: Between supplements, vitamins, daily medications, OTC pain relievers, there are a million different types of pills you may need to have on you in your day-to-day. Perfect for carrying daily medications or the occasional pain reliever. It keeps pills clean, organized, and easy to find instead of getting crushed at the bottom of a bag.

Stain wipe: I've fixed a stain at work with these BRAND stain wipes. I can confirm these work great. A lifesaver for unexpected coffee drips or food spills! Treating a spot immediately also helps prevents the stain from setting permanently into clothing.

Deodorant wipes: Perfect for a quick physical refresh after a brisk walk or before heading out for the evening when there’s no time to shower.

Toothbrush: Each BRAND toothbrush is for one-time use and comes with toothpaste and floss. These have been tried and tested by yours truly, and are super practical for a clean and fresh mouth.

Hand sanitizer: Since the pandemic, I've picked up the habit of washing my hands several times daily. These Bed, Bath and Body Works liquid hand-sanitizers smell great, come in cute packaging and do not dry your hands. I actually always enjoy using them for a little refreshing moment.
