Must-Haves for Festival Season

This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx.com on behalf of Single Edition Media.

It's April, you know what that means? Baseball, The Masters (starts tomorrow!), food and wine events and the kick off of festival season! Last year I was lucky enough to go to Voodoo Fest in New Orleans, and this year I'm heading back to the Big Easy for Jazz Fest with my girlfriends at the end of the month. 

My best pal Laura is New Orleans born and raised, so my other bestie Magen and I are going to be staying at her place. We were all 3 college roommates, and we try and get together several times a year for a girl's getaway! 

I've already started planning what I'm going to pack when we go! This month's BabbleBoxx must have known I was heading to Jazz Fest because they sent me a box of Festival necessities and I thought I'd share them - plus a few other things I'm packing - with you today! 





1. A Cozy Pair of Pajamas from PJ Salvage

PJ Salvage makes the coziest lougewear and sleepwear that you're going to want after a long day in the sun and on your feet. After the festival, take a long bubble bath then throw on these insanely soft pajamas and get a good night's sleep so you'll be ready for day two! 

My BabbleBoxx came with a matching tank and pant set, featuring the Blue Batik print, which is inspired by everything denim.

2. Nad's Ultra Smoothing Exfoliating Wax Strips  

Even though I live in Texas, when I think of New Orleans my mind jumps to humidity. When you're wearing shorts and tank tops all day, you want your legs and under arms to be smooth. I don't know about you, but I'm physically incapable of dancing without my hands waving around in the air.

Pack this tiny box with you for your next festival, which allows you to prep, exfoliate and wax in just one strip. It's also effective on any type of body hair from thickest to finest! Throw these wax strips in your bag and go!

3. Sour Punch® Bites® Ragin’ Reds And Sour Punch® Straws Pineapple Mango Chili  
My girlfriend's and I almost never just pass out when we get back to the room. We stay up, watch some Bravo and toss around some candy or chips and talk about our day. I'm packing these sour yet sweet Sour Punch® bites (flavors include strawberry, watermelon, cherry and raspberry) for our late night cravings!

4. La Croix Cúrate Piña Fraise 
La Croix is both my - and every other girl's absolute favorite right now. Let's just say La Croix is having a moment.  It is 100% natural spring water with no sodium, no caffeine, no calories, no fat and no sweeteners! The sparkling bubbles immedietly quench your thirst, so throw this in your checked bag or grab one at the store before you head to the festival for the day.



5. Clear Eyes Pure Relief® Multi-Symptom
When you're attending a festival, not only are you probably wearing more eye makeup than normal, but the amount of dust that gets kicked up as festival goers move from stage to stage is out of control. You have to pack a box of Clear Eyes in your purse to relieve red eyes from seasonal irritants.  

EVEN BETTER: Take $3 off using THIS COUPON

6. Renpure || 
Black Label 100% Organic Coconut Oil 
Coconut Water Hydrating Shampoo 
Coconut Water Hydrating Conditioner
I was pumped to see these three products in the box, because if you have curly hair like I do you can never get enough moisturizer in your hair. It boggles CB's mind how fast I go through conditioner. I am pumped to try out these Renpure products that are packed with natural extra virgin olive oil natural coconut water. There's enough moisture in them to leave even the driest, curliest of hair bouncy and shiny! 



What festivals are you guys heading to this year?
Have you been to Jazz Fest before?? Any tips for me on attending this festival for the first time??
