Hi! We're leaving on a trip soon (honeymoon, hooray!) and my mom let me borrow her waterproof camera (Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS3). She gave me a plastic bag with the manual, little brush, charger, extra battery, and the camera in its case. I've lost the brush! What would be a suitable replacement? I would hate to use the wrong kind, or nothing, and let dust get in the o-ring and then have water get in the camera!

Would a blower brush be sufficient (Optex MEDIUM BLOWER BRUSH B113 - lens cleaning brush - London Drugs

Or a lens pen (Lensmate Lens Camera Cleaning for DSLR - LMDSLR - London Drugs

Or am I screwed?
 
Avoid those cheap blower brushes; because of their design, they suck in and trap a lot of crud on the bristles. Lens pens are okay, but not really ideal just for brushing some dust off. Good quality brushes aren't expensive. You can probably pick one up at LD as well, 'though they don't list them on their 'site.
