Packing for Carry On
My husband and I just returned from his high school class reunion in a small town, in Southern Illinois. I would tell you how many years but then I would have to “kill you”! It is safe to say that “name badges” were crucial.
We were only going to be gone a few days so I decided to try to pack with only carry-on luggage. The challenge of course, is how to bottle up all my lotions, creams, liquids, etc. in one quart size bag. These are items that I cannot leave home without and nobody else wants me to be without.
So, I poured and mixed and finally got the following in my little plastic bag. My only saving grace was that I purchased facial cleansing pads and eliminated one bottle in my collection.
5 (2 oz) bottles of hair products (humidity is not my friend)
1 (1oz) bottle of day moisturizer
1 (1oz) bottle of night moisturizer
1 (1oz) bottle of liquid makeup
1 (2oz) bottle of cologne
1 (2oz) bottle of hand wash
1 (1oz) bottle of sunscreen
1 (1oz) tube of concealer
1 tube of toothpaste
1 (2oz) bottle of eye drops
1 (1oz) disinfectant spray
1 (2oz) bottle of contact solution
and, two lip colors
The moral to this story...when you think you cannot place one more item in your plastic bag...keep trying!
