When I was pregnant with twins, people would say, "You're not going to be able to travel anymore." But I proved them all wrong.

Like many frequent fliers, my skin tends to be very dry—especially in the winter or after traveling. To help combat this, I've kept a humidifier in my bedroom for years—a true saving grace for anyone with a similar skin type. A humidifier is an easy way to improve a room's air quality, and along with giving my skin back some much-needed moisture, I've also found myself suffering from fewer allergies and colds since using one. The con to this clunky bedside essential: It occupied half the space on my nightstand and was a real pain to refill and clean (I could barely fit it under my sink). And of course if it's too big for my nightstand, there is no way I'm packing it in my suitcase when I travel. The perfect solution to my wintertime woes: the Hey Dewy wireless facial humidifier, an ultra-lightweight, portable device that does the job of a large humidifier. Best of all, I can bring it anywhere.
Dimensions: 3"L × 3"W × 7"H
Capacity: 11.3 ounces
I've had this mini humidifier for nearly two years. When it first arrived, I was shocked at how small it is. In terms of height, it's not that much bigger than my iPhone. It works well, weighs less than a pound, and has held up over time. My favorite thing about it: The wireless humidifier is completely travel-friendly. There have been months over the last few years when I've had back-to-back trips on my calendar, and feared the toll all that travel would take on my skin. I simply packed the Hey Dewy humidifier in my carry-on and set it up on the hotel or Airbnb nightstand. I even packed it in my weekender bag for a quick trip to the Poconos last winter and it made all the difference in how I was feeling. I'm never going back to the days of dry hotel rooms and dehydrated post-flight skin again.
While I love sleeping with a humidifier for that extra dose of hydration for my skin, lips, and hair, there are several other benefits worth noting. Hey Dewy's humidifiers help alleviate allergy symptoms, keep your throat and nasal passages clear, relieve congestion, boost immunity; all of this leads to better, deeper sleep.
Along with the device, your order comes with a 6.5" filter and a 5" USB power cord. It only takes about four hours to charge and then lasts up to eight hours—so I can leave it on while I sleep. To refill the Hew Dewy, untwist the top and bring the bottom piece to the nearest sink. For as compact as the humidifier is, it can still fit 11.3 ounces of water—more than enough needed for a continuous cool mist throughout the day or night. Cleaning the device is simple, too—a quick rinse with water will do the trick; for a deeper cleanse, I use a toothbrush and water to scrub it.
The device itself is so sleek, with only one button, and looks chic on any

Many of us have had the privilege of traveling to some of the most far-flung corners of the earth, but few things can top the simple joys of either traveling with family, returning to beloved cities, and rediscovering our own backyards.
