No surprise that the brilliant organizing store would get an exclusive on this brilliant travel jewelery organizer, flat-packing and inexpensive, with designated spots for just the right amount of lovelies.

One wipe is loaded with enough sweat-proof, water-resistant, sting-free sunscreen to quickly cover an adult’s danger zones—you know, face, tops of feet, back of neck—or a toddler from head to toe.

You know how those huge mobile phones from the 80s look so ridiculous? Bulky camcorders are finally headed the same direction. Flip’s newest pocket version—just three ounces and about a half-inch thick—can hold sixty minutes of digital video.

Personally, I’d have it out for daily use of cotton balls and swabs, then just toss it in my bag for the road. There’s a mirror under the lid, too.

Look—just four inches long! Love how it displays the temperature and the day of the week, in big letters. When you wake up in the middle of the night having forgotten where you are, the more grounding information, the better.

By the by, it’s one of ten cool travel gadgets I wrote about for Budget Travel magazine a while back.

On the road, no one wants to mess with the dude who looks like he might be able to handle a throwing star. Also: Who knew ninjas were so into handy compartments?
