The only thing worse than picking out what outfits to wear on vacation is packing toiletries.
They're likely the last thing you pack, which means you're likely trying to stuff your toiletry bag into a suitcase that's already bursting at the seams.
However, if you follow these travel tips, you'll be able to pack everything on your list without having to leave behind any essential toiletries.
As someone who used to travel monthly for work, I've got packing down to a science and that's coming from someone is not a minimalist packer.
After all, a gal needs bring her entire skin and hair care routine, even if you'll only be gone for a weekend.
But if there's one simple space-saving tip, it's finding mini versions of your favorite moisturizer, toothpaste, shampoo, and more. Not only are they TSA-approved (no one wants to watch their precious face wash be thrown out because it's over the liquid limit), travel size beauty products are also essential for freeing up extra space in your luggage.
Even if you plan on having a checked bag, minis are necessary for avoiding those overweight fees.
To store these travel size beauty finds, you' need a spacious toiletry bag (or two). I recommend opting for a bag with plenty of compartments to keep you organized.
Another hack to make getting ready in your hotel room less chaotic is to choose a toiletry bag that is transparent, that way you can easily spot whatever it is you're looking for.
Whether you're taking a short trip or a long-haul vacation, these toiletry solutions will help you streamline the packing process, save valuable space, and keep you organized on your trip.
