Kandi Burruss’ Vacation Kit: The Housewife-Approved Fan and Other Cheap Luxuries You’ll Pack Because Why Not

Hi, I’m Sage Matthews, and if you are awake at 2 AM scrolling through celebrity shopping lists like a sleep-deprived detective, congratulations, you have reached peak civilization. Of course Kandi Burruss is hawking affordable vacation contraptions on Amazon while the world quietly burns. Of course one of her picks is a tiny portable fan that theater-ready Housewives repeatedly praise. Here is the cheerful reality: Kandi, entrepreneur and reality-TV lifer, has assembled a sensible, bargain-driven travel kit that is very likely to save your holiday and also quietly confirm that we now outsource minor life maintenance to celebrity-approved Amazon links.

Let us begin with the headline act, the fan. Kandi singled out a compact, multi-speed portable fan that she says has “like five speeds” and acts as a tabletop mini-AC so you do not have to wave your hand like a makeshift savage. This is not just Sage opinion; it is a Housewife favorite, noted on camera in other Real Housewives episodes, most prominently by Angela Oakley. The practical bit is obvious: no need to hold it, it sits on a surface, and it works better than the existential relief your vacation was supposed to provide. Oh, and it is on sale. Two corroborating touchpoints for that little triumph: Kandi’s own shopping recommendation and the product’s frequent mention across Housewives-associated clips and social posts.

From there Kandi’s list reads like a survival pack for the mildly inconvenienced traveler. She advises a Downy Wrinkle Releaser spray when hotels skimp on irons. This spray promises to smooth out creases and neutralize odors without wrestling with a steaming appliance in a humid bathroom. She also named a battery pack that supports three charging cables and can be charged via an outlet without extra cords. Translation: fewer frantic hunts for matching adaptors at 11 PM while your devices gasp for life.

If you plan to board a boat and anticipate wardrobe chaos because the cruise industry apparently forgot about hangers, Kandi has your back with a portable hanger pack. Imagine that: an item specifically for the modern problem of not having enough hangers. Society has peaked in very specific, retail-friendly ways.

Now for the shiny but not empty promises. Kandi touted a glittery body oil that imparts a gold shimmer on skin and comes in two scents. She also highlighted Supergoop’s Unseen Sunscreen, a cult favorite with oil-free, velvety texture that keeps shine at bay and provides a grippy base for makeup. Yes, sunscreen is suddenly a status accessory. She recommended a whipped body cream in the brand’s signature scents that both hydrates and makes you smell like you paid attention to self-care this trip.

Vacation outfits received the usual celebrity stamp of approval. A crochet cover-up that looks expensive but costs about thirty-five dollars earned Kandi’s praise for being loose yet flattering and stretchy in all the right ways. Oversized aviator sunglasses under fifteen dollars and a wide straw beach hat with UV protection rounded out the look, because apparently efficacy and thrift are not mutually exclusive. She even pointed us toward a $30 matching set that Paige DeSorbo took to Italy, proving your influencer wardrobe can look European on pocket change.

There are practical travel extras too, like a spray that de-wrinkles clothes and eliminates static when an iron is not an option, plus a portable hanger pack for unpredictable cruise cabins. The editorial standard here is not spiritual guidance but actual hands-on curation. The E! Insider Shop editors claim they vet items via research, customer reviews, and personal testing, which is probably the closest thing we have to reassurance in a trending-item economy. Pricing and availability were confirmed at publish time, because no one wants false hope at checkout.

So what does all this add up to besides a cart full of small mercies? It means we will continue to outsource tiny comforts to celebrity picks while the larger problems remain unresolved. But if your vacation is imminent and you need a fan that works without you cradling it like a dying phone, Kandi’s recommendation is a small, concrete win. Buy the fan, spray the wrinkle releaser, pack the hanger set, slather on the shimmer oil, and pretend that organization equals meaning.

At the end of the day, Kandi Burruss is doing what she has always done: finding cheap luxury and telling the rest of us where to click. That is both comforting and mildly tragic. Enjoy the sale, and try not to think about everything else combusting outside your tiki umbrella.

Anyway, can’t wait to see how this gets worse.
