13 Things You’ve Forgotten to Pack for Your Ski Trip

You’re about to leave the city for the snowy mountains to enjoy a fabulous, sporty, exotic holiday. This is what your friends & Mom think. But at SkiDiscount UK, we know you’re just standing by your bed right now, panicking, and thrusting random stuff into your suitcase before rushing late to the airport. We’re here to help with a short list of 13 essentials you are most likely to have forgotten :

1. Regular gloves: Your skiing gloves will be way too bulky to wear off the slopes.
2. Sunscreen: Goggle tan lines haven’t come in to fashion yet. We’ll keep you updated if they do.
3. Small first aid kit: Cuts and scrapes should be dealt with ASAP. There’s nothing like gangrene to spoil your trip.
4. Ibuprofen: Any painkiller will do but ibuprofen also brings down swelling, so it’s as good for your purpling bruises as it is for your hangover.
5. Swimming costume: The majority of resorts have swimming pools and spas, they’ll charge you a small fortune to buy one there.
6. Moisturizer: The cold will do bad things to your skin, so spend 2 minutes in the evening making it up.
7. Cheap watch: Don’t miss the last lift back. Don’t be That Guy.
8. Multiplug: What’s better than 4 EU to UK adaptors? 1 EU to UK adaptor and one cheap multiplug you’ve probably got lying around at home. Huge money saver.
