It’s just a tiny mini fridge that holds 6 soda cans so it’s perfect for little containers. This is the one I have (link below) and have it plugged in on my bathroom counter, is it’s nice within reach while doing my routine.
I keep my serums, face masks (There is a nice little basket on the door for these) and roller in it. Double check the storage temperature before you do, but most things they claim to have a longer storage life in cool and dark places plus as I mentioned before having cold products on my face feels wonderful and helps with puffiness.

This has come up a few times: how to keep medications cold without power in an emergency situation. I have seen mini refrigerators on Amazon that fit a 6 pack of soda. They run on a 12v DC adapter so that means you could run them on a large marine battery or even solar without much difficulty. Or even USB batteries

Depending on how much you need to keep cool, very small mini fridges exist. And I mean large enough for maybe three to six cans. Much easier to hide that.
I realized I have a small thermoelectric cooler that I don't use. Last night I did an experiment by turning it on its back and filling it with 72℉ water. I checked it a few times before bed and it had dropped to 63℉ and by this morning it was down to 51℉. Clearly not the most powerful cooling solution, but it may work. It runs off a USB cable too. The nutrient solution in my grow tent is about 73℉ now and I expect it'll get warmer this summer.
I'm considering drilling some holes in the cooler's door and passing two tubes through it and another for a temp probe. I'll put a tiny submersible pump into it and trigger it with the temp probe. I also have an old copper coil from homebrewing that I'll put into the nutrient bucket. Hopefully it'll be just enough cooling power to keep the nutrients in the 60s.
What do you think?
Twin Z pillow, a few bottles of different types as we went through three kinds with one to see if they liked it, double stroller with car seat attachments , dr browns formula mixing pitcher- we would pregame formula for the day and then pour it into bottles, bottle warmer if you are planning to warm but if not you don’t need it, we hadthis fridge in their nursery for nighttime bottles so we didn’t have to go to the kitchen and it was small enough to sit on their bookcase, Fisher Price infant to toddler rocker as that vibrating chair helped with nighttime reflux when we took turns feeding them, and white noise machine were all our essentials.
Maybe try in-your-face markings... "DON'T YOU DARE THROW THIS OUT, PUMPED BEFORE VAX!" and I'd add in some expletives but to each their own 😂. I'm sorry they are so one sided. That is impossible and not worth your time trying to talk any logic to them!
They also make really small, but wall powered coolers that are the capacity of like 6-8 soda cans. We used one in our second floor nursery from the beginning and loved it. People claim their temps are not cold enough for storing milk, but I kept a digital thermometer in mine and never had a concern.
I like ours aside from some white dust that blew out from the fan in the back I would have liked to try to clear out before it was already all over the room. But I'd check these types of products.
We have this one
We used this and had it in their nursery. It only held 2-3 large bottles or 4 smaller ones but we loved it and the size was really nice.

Edit to add: We also had a bottle warmer plugged in next to it, so we had it going during the diaper changes and then could just switch them out.
Here's what I've got right now. Way less than ideal, but it goes below freezing and lasted two years without problems. I'd like to upgrade to something lab quality but still small.
Nice! This was definitely a post 3 glasses of wine Amazon purchase for me lol. I like how there’s a side shelf in this one for sheet masks.

Right?! Got the idea from some /r/SkincareAddiction 's 'shelfie' posts. Now I just gotta get one of those super cute mini-fridges... (for skin stuff that lasts longer & feels better when it's cooled)
Any "6 can" fridge with a handle on it is perfectly sized for an insulin stash, and then if you need something hyper-portable for travel you bring in the frio pouches.
Sounds interesting, I’ll consider it thanks.
I checked and they only fit 6 cans of beer. I don’t think it’ll fit 4 large containers (16 to 20 oz ones) especially the long glass ones from Pyrex.
I checked the dimensions for this high rated one on amazon: Cooluli Mini Fridge Electric Cooler and Warmer (4 Liter / 6 Can): AC/DC Portable Thermoelectric System w/ Exclusive On the Go USB Power Bank Option (White) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01G7IL3BS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_cuqYAbZ14Q876
It definitely won’t fit the container sizes that I need, unfortunately... I’m disappointed. I got really excited haha

I used this with my son and am currently using for my daughter! It’s the best. It’s very quiet.

We have a Cooluli mini fridge in the nursery that works a treat
Have you researched portable fridges? Amazon sells them pretty cheaply, they are small, some go with a lock.
Using a hot water thermos to heat and a mini fridge works well!
Here’s a good article about the right temperature of water to use: https://masonbottle.com/blogs/news/116277764-the-number-one-mistake-parents-make-when-heating-breast-milk
Here’s an affordable little fridge example: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01G7IL3BS/ref=cm_sw_r_oth_api_i_27RSCb931XX2W
It may also be a good idea to use a glass bottle if possible to prevent plastic leaching! Good luck mama!
