Thanks to a tip in one of the stylethread articles, I brought a pashmina on my last trip and it was a lifesaver. It was perfect for the ever-unpredictable airplane temps and I didn't have to use the icky airplane blankets.

As far as beauty care, obviously moisturizer, lip balm and drinking loads of water are musts, but I also love, love, love Avene face spray (it's available at some CVS stores). It instantly makes me feel refreshed, clean and hydrated- I've gotten a bunch of friends hooked on it! They even make handy little travel sizes of their spray. If you can't find it at a CVS near you, a google search should reveal some online retailers, but I'm sure the Evian spray or any other water spray works just as well! Check out their site for more info: http://www.aveneusa.com/consumers/soothe/every_day.asp

I also like to bring sensitive baby wipes (perfect for cleaning face, underarms- ick!, hands, etc.), my ipod and an eye mask (to help me totally zone out).

Where are you heading?

HTH!

-face wipes
-eyedrops
-lip balm
-gum
-bottled water
-snacks like mixed nuts, trail mix and a little bag of cookies

cc has a great list. just wanted to add a couple other things.

ipod
big gigantic bottle of water (they never give you enough)
notepad and pen
reading materials about your trip or what you're doing on your trip
trash rags.. i love indulging in my guilty pleasure of magazines while i fly
socks if i'm wearing flipflops. i like to be barefoot on the plane while i'm in my seat. always wear shoes to the bathroom.
sunglasses. i just wear them like an eyemask when sleeping.

i can't say how much i love brush-ups! they are a god-send!
