Mole skin tip...... We used mole skin during volleyball when we would get terrible blisters. So IF you already have a blister cut a hole into the center of your piece and put your mole skin on with the blister in the cut out hole. This way the sticky mole skin won't tear off the blister OR if the blister already popped and is raw the adhesive won't hurt it. The thickness of the surrounding moleskin should protect that injury. If it isn't thick enough put 2 layers of moleskin on to increase the thickness. Hope this helps!

[@toddylu6869]

It is also easier to cut round the corners of the moleskin and use a dart at each corner so it bends and fits certain areas better. With a rounded edge, the corners won’t lift up as easy.

[@redhatbear1135]

We used to tell our camp kids to let us know when they even had a hot spot as their boots were almost always wet! Moleskin is almost like duct tape for all its uses.

[@LifeWellCruised]

Very good tip

[@lynnfranklin5098]

Hiker and scout tip too just passed it on to my neighbor 9year old who just started pitching

[@jvarner7088]

Look for a product made specifically for blisters that you put on and forget. You’ll never know you had a blister.

[@sandrapearl4902]

I have a tip if you’re going on a cruise ship that has a laundry room and that’s to bring laundry detergent sheets. The Dollar Tree actually carries them for just $1.25. They also carry travel size liquid detergent but the sheets are much easier to pack and really don’t take up any room at all.

[@debbieboswell5785]

What are used to use moleskin in the 60s. When we had a blister we would cut out a hole and then attach it.

[@cathycooper1426]

The waist band would work for concerts or ballgames when purses aren't allowed.

[@LifeWellCruised]

Very true! Great for going to the gym or a run too

[@docsmctink]

Great idea!

[@heritageofhastur]

Another use for water shoes is in the shower. If you have balance issues or if the shower gets rather slippy, they can give you so much better footing. This goes for hotels, cruises, even fitness facilities....

[@lauramorgan9608]

My mother was way ahead. In 1983 I went abroad and my late mother sewed a pocket into my back brace. I was robbed but my passport ticket money etc was safe.

I use the door lock every time I travel solo. It just gives me piece of mind. I actually travel with two, in case I get a connecting room in a hotel.

[@chrisjenson7483]

Could you recommend dresses with sleeves, the older you get you want the coverage.

[@LifeWellCruised]

Absolutely, I have a very short sleeve one that I like a lot but I can definitely look for cute dresses with sleeves in the future

[@ashleys4652]

You could do a lightweight cardigan over all the dresses that she recommends. Amazon has them in every color, short sleeve, 3/4 sleeve for summer months.

[@geemah8286]

I always look forward to your videos for must have cruise items. Unfortunately, my husband doesn’t understand why I get so many Amazon packages after I watch one😂.

[@andylee6130]

You should try Wellow compression socks. They're made of bamboo and keep you warm in winter and cool in summer. Plus they're antimicrobial. Much better than any other compression socks I have had. I'll never buy another brand!

[@LifeWellCruised]

Thanks for sharing this!!

[@sophiegallinger8004]

My new Wellows just arrived yesterday, and I already love them! I looked at other places that had Merino compression socks (Sockwell?), but the women's sizes only go up to 11 (BOOO!). Wellow has lots of fun prints for even my size 11.5 feet, and wide calf widths as well.

[@brendawyber6556]

20 years ago my husband and I walked across England. He, silly man, decided to wear new boots, as opposed to getting his broken boots resoled. We were walking an average of 18 miles a day, and by the end of day 3 his feet looked like minced meat. He put moleskin, pretty well everywhere, and we were able to finish the walk. Most incredible 2 weeks of my life. We walked 200+ mikes, climbed 10000+ feet and took zillions of pics. 14 days in England with only 4 hours of rain. We came back with suntans, never heard of in the UK. Really enjoy following you. 👍🏻

[@ilenet9911]

I was in Ireland that year for 2 weeks for my brother in laws wedding. We had one day of rain. We also came back with a little sunburn!

[@LifeWellCruised]

Thanks for sharing this & thanks for your kind words. Glad you’re here :)

[@Neddoest]

England is much smaller than I realized!

[@sandishull2378]

My husband is retired US Army and they had 12 mile marches all the time. He always put mole skin on his ankles and under his toes before so he didn't get blisters. So when I buy a new pair of shoes I always use it until I get them broken in.

[@reneebee8693]

Great tip. 👍

[@MrRanger59]

One good item to bring is a sun guard long sleeve hoodie in case you forget to bring sunscreen. They hardly take up any room, dry quickly and help to protect against UV rays.

[@jwascom2]

Llana…you do not have to take the entire shampoo bars on your trips. You cut a section off and it’s even less to pack! I use Lush brand all the time. I found lightweight plastic containers on Amazon that are inexpensive to carry parts of these in …I’ll try to find the link!

[@LifeWellCruised]

Smart 👏

[@JoyYoung-ez3pd]

[@Krkeagle]

We do the same thing with body soap - get nice goat’s milk or other soap and just cut off and take a piece

[@amandapatton3194]

Matador has a great bag for packing them that allows them to dry inside the bag - no slimy bars!

[@chrisrobinson3980]

We've used moleskin for decades! Never leave home without it. 🙂 I even pre-cut a couple of pieces - around 1" x 2" with rounded edges - and carry them in my handbag.

[@LifeWellCruised]

So smart!

[@redhatbear1135]

I have a huge roll so I cut several long strips that I can cut down.

[@sandranoyd9576]

I’m an old backpacker. I’ve carried and used moleskin for over 51 years. It’s a lifesaver!😍

[@deborahsheldon9951]

I used Moleskin in high school, 1964 under majorette boots, the product was great.

[@LifeWellCruised]

I can’t believe I’m only learning about it now. It’s fabulous 👏

[@ccdav13]

Shampoo and Conditioner Bar has been my go to when I travel. Not only because they’re convenient they also work well just like the regular liquid version. It’s so compact and last long as long as you dry them after used. I highly recommend this. I actually gave my friend a set during our travel and she was amazed how it made her hair soft and manageable.

[@Idkdk]

Moleskin was my lifesaver in my Disney World trip when I was walking 12 hours a day

[@LifeWellCruised]

I could imagine!!!

[@sharynboudreau3937]

I was just wondering how many steps a perimeter would clock if you wore one. I agree that it is a great product!

[@MiaHessMusic]

HOw to you get it to stay on? I'venever had lucky with moleskin.

[@sharynboudreau3937]

@@MiaHessMusic You cut the piece to the size you need. Make sure the area is clean and dry. Then peel it and place it where you need it, like a bandage. The brand matters also. Get it from a reputable dealer. GL 🙂

[@rowanmulvey8632]

When cutting the moleskin remember to round the corners to help to keep the edges from lifting or rolling. DO NOT PUT MOLESKIN ON TOP OF AN EXISTING BLISTER. Sorry for the emphasis here but it is super important so you don't tear off the "roof" of the existing blister. Cut the moleskin out in a donut type shape to accommodate the area of loose or separated skin where the bubble or pocket of the blister is. I know this sounds gross to some people but it is the difference between successful treatment and extended misery.

[@genitagray6126]

You’re right

[@sardi114]

Corn cushions come with the hole already and work too

[@sandybunn7924]

I learned about moleskin as a newly graduated college student learning to hike and explore in the High Uintas of Utah--40 years ago!! That stuff is great!

[@LifeWellCruised]

Wow, it’s funny how some of the best items are just good old tried & true

[@rachaelgrier6126]

Moleskin! Old school for blister prevention! Love it when I camp/hike, travel walking days, etc. Great Stuff!

[@LifeWellCruised]

I never knew!!

[@andrenamcevoywilson3913]

Hi Ilana try out the fan that goes around your neck it’s fantastic. No need to hold fan in your hand all day

[@reneebee8693]

Yes, the neck fan is a game changer. I also saw a "new" fan that you clip to your waistband and it blows under your shirt.

[@IreneHanshaw]

u I have been on 40 plus cruises. Did not know the walls of the cruise cabin are metal. Since I have been faithfully watching your videos have bought a lot of things from Amazon for my comfort on the ships. My husbands always ask me what great finds from your video I am buying next. Love to see your doggie Abby. Please show her of some more.

[@agneslamer1128]

Moleskin, either precut or the cool one you have, is a must for Disney!! A lifesaver for walking miles.

I love your videos on Amazon finds!!! Please keep them coming!

[@AR12541]

We have used Moleskin for many years. We used it for our first cruise in 1993 and don’t go anywhere without it. We even keep it in our car all the time.

[@fairannie9]

Thank you for your information shared. We were watching as a random search after dinner, my adult son and myself, and our ears picked up excitedly about the moleskin blister prevention tape. We have never heard of it. At the moment he is limping and hobbling with blisters from new shoes. Have paddeded and taped the blisters at present. I read some comments and was really taken by how many people have used it and know it's a great product. So off we go searching for it online. Thanks so much for sharing. It may change the way we now protect our feet with new shoes. Bandaids are not great, terribly fiddly and fall off.

[@C7Zaol]

I have been using Moleskin for decades. Not only great for uncomfortable shoes, I also use it to cushion my CPAP headgear straps to keep them from chafing me when I am asleep.

[@LifeWellCruised]

So smart

[@alisonrempel608]

Years ago I switched from moleskin to duct tape. It protects against hot spots/blisters without the bulk. The smooth surface allows sock or shoe to slide smoothly.

[@redhatbear1135]

Double socks gives you slip you need too. I was also taught not to put duct tape directly on your skin, by actually one of my campers, as it will tear skin off! I was taping an ankle so I just taped on top of a thin sock. Yes it left a bit of glue on the sock, but better than tearing my skin off. Of course, this was before someone decided to make cheaper duct tape that doesn’t really stick!

[@MiaHessMusic]

That's a good tip and occasionally, in desperate moments, I've used it in the past. thank you for the remnder!!

[@suzanne6313]

Your videos are always so helpful. I'm always adding items to my travel wish list. Thank you.

[@Debra_Hasatheory]

If you watch Marnie Goldberg, she just had a pair of leather sandals like the ones you show here, but hers were Tori Burch, and they were almost $300! Same color. I think Amazon does dupes that they don't tell us are dupes, and those sandals are a good example!

I LOVE my Eagle Creek compression cubes. They are more expensive than the non-brand ones. But there is a huge difference in quality of nylon, zippers and construction. They are also much lighter than the non-brand ones.

Eagle creek is amazing! i found a small rolling bag years ago for a course I was taking for a year and it is an amazing bag! it still looks great. so when it came to compression packing cubes, i had to get Eagle creek!,

That’s interesting. I haven’t tried them yet

[@user-gi7gl7rm3r]

I had 2 small compression cubes I bought last year. Before our cruise last month, I bought a set with bigger compression cubes. I was nervous about wrinklingn so took my travel size bottle of Wrinkle Release, but didn't need it. My 3 dresses, tops and shorts were fine. I carefully folded and rolled everything.

Moleskin is wonderful for preventing blisters! I used to use it every week when I went roller skating as a kid! I forgot all about it! The dresses are really cute and look like you got them at a boutique at the beach! Good find!😊

[@pamelalambe1356]

Have used mole skin and is lot better than a bandaid. But now like the BANDAID blister packs, for heel and for toe. They have something in them, and they really seal and pad the blister - puff up, and just leave on and on until it disappears. Was like a miracle first time I used.

The handheld fan was a lifesaver when we had to be outside in the Texas heat all day a couple of years ago. Definitely works well. We've been using moleskin for years as we used to hike and run, it does the job of preventing blisters.

for a fan, I prefer the USB mini fan for iphones. It is small fan that will fit in your bag or pocket and then you can plug it into the charging port of your phone and you have a great little fan. Would never travel without the Moleskin that you can cut to what ever your need.

[@lindastradley9788]

I started using moleskins some 40 years ago for when my husband I would go hiking. They're indispensable! I also found compression LEGGINGS on Amazon that I bought when I was getting vein work done on my legs. They're still tight to put on but not as much of a struggle as full length compression stockings!!! On the subject of solid shampoo and conditioner, I bought some about three weeks or so, but kept forgetting to try it. I finally tried it on Tuesday, and it really is a game changer! The convenience and portability is brilliant but I am SUPER impressed with how it lathered and how soft my hair was after it was dried! I'm sold!!!

We always cruise with magnet hooks - what a great tip.

Glad you enjoyed the video! I love Sheri & we’re friends, but different people 😂

Llana first I would like to say that I absolutely love your videos! Your energy is addicting and I love it! I just wanted to say that my son used Mullkin when he was in the army. They worked fantastic in his hiking boots when he would have to walk miles and miles carrying 100 pounds away.

Great ideas! I used to participate in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer (39 miles over 2 days) and used moleskin the entire time. Definitely worth it!

Auear 4 plastic soap containers (4 colors) are 8.99 us. There is another set that are round for 7.99 for 2. These are great for travel shampoo and conditioner…or your favorite body bar…nice and light and small!

Kitsch sells a purple shampoo for blonde hair. When I travel I just bring a piece of each. Lasts a long time. I cut a piece of mole skin and keep in all my first aid kits.

Good idea!

I will definitely try Mole skin as I do get blister when wearing certain shoes. I also made a travel backpack in canvas very similar to the one in our video so I can use it on my Alaskan cruise. 😊

I learned about mole skin while in college 50 years ago from a girl in my dorm who was a ballet dancer. I found myself purchasing it about 3 years ago, but it was just a small package with 3 squares, each about 3"x 4 ". As far as the waistbelt, the first thing I thought was if it is RFID protected as further security for any credit cards. Thank you for showing the backpack as I was looking for something that was roomy and yet flexable. 👍

I use have been using the rice shampoo and conditioner for over a year. Game changer. I have struggled with eczema on my scalp off and on since I was in my teens. When I moved to the solid products, it cleared up and hasn't come back. I also use the conditioner as a face shaving lubricant. Works great. So, it replaced my shaving cream, too. Not only are these products superior, but cheaper than the products they replaced.

Wow! Thanks for sharing
