While are a few solid options when it comes to removing wrinkles and bulges from your clothing, traditional irons and full-sized industrial steamers that you’ll find in retail shops and on photoshoot aren’t exactly the most practical solutions—especially if you’re an avid traveler or live in a smaller space. However, when you’re traveling—whether for business or pleasure—arriving and sporting wrinkled apparel is one of the biggest style faux pas you can commit. One of the biggest keys to looking sharp, polished, professional, and you know, just straight-up put together is showing up in crisp clothing.
Sure, there are plenty of last-minute “hacks” to remove wrinkles from your favorite silk blouse or perfectly-tailored trousers, like sticking them in a steam-filled bathroom with a hot shower running at full heat or using your hair straightening irons as make-shift iron to get the job done, but these tricks aren’t exactly fool-proof, and they can also result in damaged clothing items.
The best solution? Investing in a compact, travel-friendly mini clothing steamer that is ridiculously portable, but still powerful. Not only do these pint-sized steamers remove unsightly crinkles in a pinch, but they also have an off-label benefit of helping to remove germs and grime thanks to the steam treatment. Even if you don’t travel that often, they’re also a super great safe-saving wardrobe solution that stores easily and doesn’t crowd a studio apartment or small bedroom. Ahead, we’ve highlighted a few high-powered but portable compact steamers to get the job done without getting in your way.
