How to Create a DIY Bachelorette Hangover Kit
Planning a bachelorette party can be a lot of fun, but it’s also important to consider the aftermath. We all know that a night of celebration and indulgence can sometimes lead to a not-so-pleasant morning after.

In this blog post, we will guide you through the process of putting together an inexpensive hangover kit that fits the theme of your party, ensuring everyone feels their best the next day.
Why a hangover kit is a great bachelorette party favor
Giving a hangover kit as a party favor is not only thoughtful but also practical. It shows your friends that you care about their well-being and want them to have a memorable experience without suffering the consequences. A hangover kit is like a little survival pack that can help ease the symptoms and make the recovery process more bearable.

Ideas for packaging your bachelorette hangover kit
When it comes to choosing the bag for your hangover kit, there are several options to consider. You could go for small drawstring bags in colors that match your party theme or opt for cute mini tote bags that can be reused later. The key is to find something compact and portable so that your friends can easily carry it with them.
Linking it to the Bachelorette Theme
To make your hangover kits even more special, consider linking them to the theme of your bachelorette party. For example, if you’re having a tropical-themed Final Flamingle Bachelorette party, you could choose bags with pineapple prints or incorporate tropical elements into the design.
If you’re opting for a Camp Bachelorette theme, you may opt for natural burlap bags or those designed to look like a wilderness survival kit, whereas a Coastal or nautical theme may opt for straw beach bags with seaside motifs.
Alternatively, a plain bag could be more affordable and can easily be adapted with stickers or labels to fit any theme. We have a full range of hangover kit stickers and tags themed to a wide selection of bachelorette party themes.
These attentions to detail will make your hangover kits stand out and add an extra touch of fun.
What items should I include in a DIY Bachelorette Hangover Kit?
Of course, the choice is entirely up to you, but here are ten suggestions to pick and choose from to include in your hen party hangover kit. Shop the full product range in one place with this handy Bachelorette Hangover Kit Ideas Amazon list.
Headache Tablets
One of the most common symptoms of a hangover is a pounding headache. Including headache tablets in your hangover kit will provide quick relief and help your friends get back on their feet faster.
Hair Tie / Scrunchie
After a night of dancing and partying, hair can become unruly and messy. A hair tie or scrunchie will come to the rescue, allowing your friends to put their hair up in a quick and effortless bun, giving them a fresh look even if they don’t feel their best.
Make it special by adding a personalised scrunchie tag. Easily editable in Canva, we have a wide range of scrunchie tag templates to suit your bachelorette theme.
Face Mask
A face mask is a perfect addition to any hangover kit. It not only helps hydrate and rejuvenate the skin but also provides a soothing and relaxing experience. Your friends will appreciate this little self-care treat during their recovery time.
Chewing Gum
Alcohol can leave an unpleasant taste in the mouth, and chewing gum can help freshen breath and combat that post-party odor. Plus, it’s a simple way to keep your friends feeling refreshed throughout the day.
Energy Bar
When you’re feeling hungover, eating may be the last thing on your mind. Including an energy bar in your hangover kit ensures that your friends have something nutritious and easy to grab when they need a quick boost of energy.
Lip Balm
Dehydration often accompanies a hangover, leading to dry lips. A lip balm will provide much-needed moisture and prevent chapped lips, making your friends feel more comfortable during their recovery period.
Personalised Water Bottles
Water is an essential in any hangover kit but add a special touch by including a personalized water bottle label. With easily editable text in Canva, you can add names, graphics or a personal message.
Electrolyte packets
After a night of celebrating, your body may be depleted of essential nutrients and fluids. Electrolyte packets are a lifesaver, helping to replenish electrolytes lost during drinking and promoting hydration, which can significantly alleviate the symptoms of a hangover.
Coffee or tea packets
Caffeine can help to alleviate fatigue and boost alertness, making it a popular choice for those battling hangovers. Including single-serve coffee or tea packets in your hangover kit allows your guests to brew up a comforting cup of their favorite beverage and kick-start their day on the right foot.
Cooling eye gel pads
Puffy eyes are a common side effect of a night of drinking, but cooling eye gel pads can help to reduce inflammation and rejuvenate tired eyes. Including these in your hangover kit gives your guests the opportunity to refresh and revitalize their eyes as they recover.
What will you include in your DIY Bachelorette Hangover Kit?
Creating a DIY bachelorette hangover kit is a thoughtful gesture that shows your friends you care about their well-being. By including essential items you’re providing them with the tools they need to recover from a night of celebration.
Remember to link the hangover kit to the party theme and consider adding personalized touches. Your friends will appreciate this gesture, and it will ensure that everyone can enjoy the festivities without worrying about the morning after!
