Attending a family festival is one way of having a good, enjoyable time with your family members while creating long-lasting memories. However, packaging for it may be something daunting and overwhelming. Having the right festival essentials makes all the difference for everyone involved so that the experience flows very smoothly. Starting from keeping up with skincare essentials to holding in mind must-haves at the festival such as first-aid items and dental hygiene products are pivotal in a well-prepared festival pack list for the event.

Here is a festival essential checklist of the needs you carry along to enjoy every festival moment comfortably, fresh and prepared.

1. Hydration and Sun Protection Essentials

The days can be really long if you go outside. This means that water and protection against the sun are essential. Pack reusable bottles of water for each member of your family. With that should be an effective sunscreen that will work for the skin type of all members of the family.

• Direct Care offers options in the form of highly SPF sunscreens and hydrating sprays, which help keep the skin fresh and integrity intact during heat.
• Apply sunscreen with reapplication as often as every two hours after heavy sweating or swimming. 
• Lip balms with sunscreen can also be beneficial for preventing dryness of the lips by being included in your packing list.

2. Skincare for a Radiant Glow Throughout the Day

Festivals can be all about letting go and having lots of fun, but they can also be taxing on the skin. Taking along a set of skincare must-haves such as face wipes, hydrating sprays, and moisturisers keeps your skin feeling fresh and comfortable. Face wipes are especially helpful when dirt and sweat are there, moisturisers keep the skin hydrated, making it to combat dryness due to exposure to the sun over a long period of time. Purchase travel-sized skincare, too and keep it on hand for easy reapplication.

3. Quick Makeup Kits

To keep that makeup in place during really hot, wet weather, you are going to need to bring waterproof mascara, setting spray, and travel-sized powders or blotting sheets.

Lip and cheek tints are easy to reapply on the go, even without access to a mirror. They also add a very natural look to your face. Do not miss dry shampoo, tiny combs, and hair ties for small hair essentials. These can help hair stay festival-ready, even with high humidity or in windy conditions.

4. Dental Hygiene Necessities

Maintain good oral hygiene, particularly for multi-day events. Pack travel-sized toothbrushes, toothpaste, and mouthwash for each household member. Travel-sized one-use flossers are miniaturised, they are very useful after meals. Just take care of your teeth without too much angst.

5. First Aid and Personal Care Kit

A basic first aid kit is no festival-faring family’s bible. Adhesive bandages, antiseptic wipes, and insect repellent are handy for the treatment of minor scrapes or bug bites on the go, and pain relievers, allergy tablets, and motion sickness remedies are also intelligent pack list add-ons.

Personal hygiene would comprise items such as hand sanitisers and wet wipes to ensure that hands are clean and fresh. This would be helpful for families with young children. Such products ensure a hygienic experience in outdoor events.

6. Products for Incontinence and Sanitary Products

Festivals are long days out, and for some, incontinence products or sanitary items such as sanitary towels or liners can be festival necessities. Direct Care offers a wide range of discreet, comfortable products to help you manage your incontinence needs. Pack enough to keep you going throughout the whole event, and sealed bags to discreetly dispose of.

7. Healthy Snacks and Nutritional Boosters

The largest thing for kids, is to keep them coming throughout the festival, and pack easy-to-carry and non-perishable stuff that everyone can easily grab when they want to have something in between. Consider adding nutritional boosters such as vitamin gummies, electrolyte tablets, or protein shakes, which can easily be carried and consumed for an energy boost. Direct Care is also offering various vitamins and supplements in case you need support from your body during long outdoor events. Keeping some of these snacks on hand could help energy levels stay up, without having to wait in long food lines.
