There are few events that feed the soul quite like a girls’ night out. Whether you’re a working mom of 3 who’s had a long week at the office or a college freshman who just needs to turn your brain off for a few hours, that quality time with your girls is everything!
The key to making the most of it, though, like most things in life, is a little preparation, so I put together a list of my girls’ night staples:
1. BUBS Naturals Hydrate or Die Packs to combat hangovers
A GNO often means dancing the night away, walking from spot to spot, and indulging in a strawberry margarita (or a few). 🍹 That means hydration is an absolute must. Not only will it give you the energy to keep the party going, but it keeps your skin glowy and helps you rebound the next morning.
These little sticks from BUBS Naturals come in clutch! These sticks are packed with 2000mg of natural electrolytes in the form of evaporated coconut water powder, Himalayan salt, and Aquamin. These ingredients combat hangovers by delivering sodium, potassium, chloride, and magnesium for optimal rehydration.
Hydrate or Die packs come in delicious flavors like Orange, Lemon, and Organic Coconut, and they’re also free of fillers like gluten, soy, dairy, and GMOs. Each pack is only 45 calories, so you can save your calories for the drinks! The cherry on top is that you can subscribe & save for 15% off, so you’re ALWAYS prepared for your GNO.
2. Fashion tape to keep everything in place
Choosing the right outfit for a night out is a whole production. It has to be the perfect combination of cute, functional and comfortable–that’s no easy feat.
So when I finally do find my perfect ‘fit, I don’t want things like bra straps ruining it. Fashion tape swoops in for the win, allowing me to make sure all my straps and underthings stay hidden, so I don’t have to be the friend that ruins the one picture everyone looks cute in.
3. A portable (preferably lipstick-sized) charger
How long you’re able to stay out shouldn’t depend on the life of your iPhone battery, so a portable charger is essential. Now, when I picture a portable charger, I’m seeing a clunky device that’s almost as big as my phone, but there is a better way. You can find chargers that are literally the size of a lipstick tube. Just make sure you charge it ahead of time!
4. A shimmery lip gloss
There’s nothing that ties your look together quite like the GLOSSIEST, non-sticky lip gloss. Whether you’ve been enjoying a drink with the girls or a session on the dance floor, a quick reapply boosts your confidence to keep you going all night long!
5. A cross-body purse that doubles as a clutch
You need somewhere to put all of your essentials, right? A crossbody purse is cute, easy to carry, and can double as a clutch if you take the strap off. I use one that is just big enough to fit my phone, a BUBS pack or two, my portable charger, and my lip gloss without looking clunky and over-stuffed. It comes in clutch (pun absolutely intended!)
The key to unforgettable nights is preparation
And there you have it - my list of ride or die products for a girls’ night out. My BUBS Hydrate or Die packs, fashion tape, portable charger, lip gloss, and a clutch to keep them all safe. These things help me look and feel fabulous from the moment I leave my house until I make it back at the end of the night (or in the early morning)!
