    There's something so special about taking a vacation with just the girls. Whether you're going on a bachelorette party in Vegas, heading out on a road trip through the Southwest, trekking around Europe, or simply planning a girls-only staycation at a nearby locale, don't forget that packing some surprise goodies can put a smile on everyone's face. We rounded up nine easy items to pack that won't break the bank and will make any girlfriend getaway more fun.

  • 1. Sheet Masks

    You’ve likely seen sheet mask selfies from celebrities and influencers all over social media. There’s a reason the Korean skincare product is so popular. Sheet masks are fun inexpensive, and they provide results. The Face Shop is a reputable South Korean brand that uses pure ingredients found in nature. Each cotton mask contains a nourishing serum that yields soft and healthy skin. This pack of 15 sheet masks (gift them to your friends) includes ingredients like pomegranate, aloe, lemon, and green tea — and promises to brighten, firm, and soothe complexions.

    Once the wine starts flowing, it can be hard to remember which glass of Pinot Noir belongs to you and which belongs to your friend. Enter these cheesy, funny, and sexy drink markers. Each gentleman (and his six-pack abs) is designed to hook around the base of a wine glass. If you can’t remember which underwear color your guy is wearing, check his buttocks for his name. That’s right, Blake is guarding your glass. And if you prefer something a bit more buttoned up, choose the set with men in uniform.
