Our Favorite TSA-Approved Beauty PicksThe dreaded 3.4 oz. liquid rule doesn't keep us from traveling with carry-on gems |
2 of 6
This skin care kit is amazing -- every product is packed with great ingredients -- and it's pretty! Rather than mixing and matching a ton of different skin care products, I like to use an entire system when I travel.
2. Sebastian Volupt Travel-Size Shampoo and Conditioner, $5.99 each
There is nothing worse than generic hotel shampoo...and there's rarely any conditioner at all. This Sebastian shampoo and conditioner just recently became available in a travel size, and I can't wait to bring them on my next trip.
3. June Jacobs New Body Travel Kit, $95
Sometimes I'm guilty of using any old hotel soap and skipping lotion entirely. But when I pack the right body products, I'll use them -- and my skin is so much happier for it. This June Jacobs kit is perfect for me. (Bonus: If you stay in a Hyatt, you get June Jacobs products in your room.)
4. Supergoop SPF 50 Antioxidant Infused Sunscreen Day Cream, $37
I'm insane about sunscreen 365 days of the year, but especially when I'm traveling because I'll inevitably be walking around outside. This SPF 50 is my sunscreen of choice because it's a combination of physical and mineral SPF ingredients. I pack a tube for each day of my trip. No exaggeration.
5. Yes to Cucumbers On-The-Go Facial Towelettes, $2.99
Thankfully, the TSA doesn't confiscate wipes, because I usually travel with a ton of them. I use them for everything from washing my face on the flight to wiping down my tray table. These are my favorite because they're refreshing, and they come in perfect-sized packs of 10.

Nice article, but the general ideas are more useful than the actual products listed: buy travel versions of your favorite products, switch to solid versions if you can (lip balm, moisturizing balms, solid perfumes). I get so many samples from my subscriptions that I just sort them out into categories (body lotion, face wash, etc) and then pick out a few to use on my trip. They're so tiny that they usually only hold a few days' worth of product, so I can throw them out before my trip home.

I think this is really useful when I'm not in the mood to subdivide all my stuff for travel.

Love this for the upcoming vacation season! I have so many samples from the boxes I receive so I am ready to go somewhere and use my travel products.

I thought that nail polish is not allowed on-board because it's flammable.

The only info useful to me in this article is about the moist wipes. I manage easily by substituting non-liquids wherever possible (solid deodorant, concealer balm), and putting necessary liquids into travel bottles or buying travel sizes.

interesting to see what "must-haves" ladies choose for travel. Aren't aerosols (like dry shampoo) and flammables (like nail polish) prohibited in hand luggage?
