Don’t forget to include tools that you might need, such as cotton balls or cotton swabs.
Keep in mind that most hotels provide shampoo, conditioner, and soap, so you may not need to pack those items.
Check with the airports that you’re traveling through to determine their guidelines to ensure that you pack your toiletries appropriately for security checks.
Many skincare, bath, and makeup companies provide free samples when you buy from them, so it’s a good idea to have a drawer in your vanity to keep them organized. That way, you can just go through the samples to find what you need before your trip. Many stores sell travel size versions of common toiletries, such as shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and toothpaste, so you can buy smaller versions of the products you use.
You can also save smaller bottles and jars from samples and other products as you empty them throughout the year. Rinse them out well, and add your favorite toiletries for your trips.
Just be sure that you bring enough of each item for every member of the party. A travel size tube of toothpaste isn’t going to be enough for a week long trip with 4 people.
