My Romantic Getaway Scrapbook

  • My Romantic Getaway Scrapbook
    By Natasha BurtonMy boyfriend and I will soon be on a plane to Tahiti, with nine days in paradise ahead of us. (I know, I'd hate me, too.) While I can't wait to get to the islands, what I'm even more excited about is the fact that this is our very first couple trip, so I've compiled my top product picks to help make this milestone totally magical.

  • My Romantic Getaway Scrapbook
    I’m not usually a germaphobe, but something about prolonged air travel just makes me feel grimy. With a pack of these in my carry-on, I can do a routine wipe-down when needed. After all, icky is exactly the opposite of how I want to feel during a romantic trip with my guy. SHOP NOW: Wet Ones Sensitive Skin Extra Gentle Wipes in Travel Pack, $3.75

    Going on a tropical vacation in winter is an awesome idea. However, my skin isn’t cooperative with the fact that I need to show it off in those aforementioned sun dresses and bikinis.
