Eco-Friendly Gift Ideas for Travelers

Reusable + Collapsible Straw

FinalStraw

FinalStraw’s mission is to create less waste in the world and cut down on single-use plastics! The FinalStraw product will truly last you a lifetime, and comes in different colors—I love the teal and blue colors! These straws are BPA free, dishwasher safe and can easily attach to your keys! They collapse into a handy carrying case, come with a cleaning wand, and can be taken anywhere along your travels. They also make awesome stocking stuffer gifts!

Reusable Water Bottle

Self-Sanitizing

Cut down on single-use plastic water bottles and to-go cups! This 32oz insulated water bottle is perfect for hot or cold beverages and is made of high-grade, BPA-free stainless steel and a silicone sleeve. The LARQ Bottle is the world’s first self-cleaning water bottle and water purification system. It uses UV-C LED light to eliminate up to 99.9999% of bio-contaminants from your water and bottle.

Sports Bra from Recycled Materials

Girlfriend Collective

Like I mentioned, Girlfriend Collective makes the stylish and sustainable activewear out of recycled plastic bottles— the dream! These sports bras are made from the same stretchy material as the high-rise leggings. Grab a matching set before your next trip!

Reusable Makeup Remover Pads

Cotton + Bamboo

Crafted from a soft blend of cotton and bamboo fibers, these wash pads are naturally hypoallergenic and gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin types. Reusable and biodegradable, they’re an eco-friendly alternative to single-use cotton rounds.

Shampoo + Conditioner Bars

Duo Set

I love the concept of shampoo and conditioner bars — they don’t use plastic packaging, and are way easier to travel with (no liquid allowance issues)! This duo set offers environmentally-friendly, salon-quality haircare that cleans your hair, with honeyquat and shea butter to add a bit of shine without any sulfates, parabens, silicone and phthalates. Plus, recyclable packaging!

Portable Charger

Solar Charger + Power Bank

A portable charger is so handy when traveling! You can charge your phone, tablet, and more, on the go. This charger operates off of solar, stores up in its power bank, and has a USB output. Plus, it’s dust and waterproof!

Travel Containter

Insulated + Leak-Proof

Skip the single-use, to-go cups! Designed in a double-walled construction with a vacuum-insulated seal, this leak-proof container is perfect for packing everything from hot soups to cold smoothies.

Container Set

Stainless Steel

This set of three lidded storage containers are perfectly sized to fit inside a tote for on-the-go meals. Crafted from premium stainless steel with leak-resistant lids, they’re a must-have for leftovers, lunches, sauces, and more.

Eco-Friendly Yoga Mat

Biodegradable

This sustainable yoga mat has been crafted using biodegradable natural tree rubber and PU for ultimate stability and cushion. Wider and longer than standard size mats, the upper layer is non-slip, offering the grippiest of grips even when the sweat is pouring and you’re begging for savasana.

Public Goods Subscription

Not sure what to get? A membership to Public Goods is a great way to give a gift that keeps on giving!

Leggings from Recycled Materials

Girlfriend Collective

Girlfriend Collective makes the stylish and sustainable activewear out of recycled plastic bottles— the dream! These high-rise, compressive legging with flattering seam details are made using recycled water bottles—79% RPET and 21% spandex—and offer a four-way stretchy and breathable fit. I always try to opt for sustainable apparel over fast fashion, and these are the perfect travel leggings.
