    No, I have never put those things in my clear bag and I travel 3-4 times a year internationally, with multiple flights. Plus, I also do not put the mini samples of eye cream, face cream, etc., in there, because I have forgotten so many times to put those in my clear bag and have never been stopped for that. I do think non-US airports are not as strict.

    Couple of things to add: - makeup sample containers are excellent for ruthless travel decanting. Screw-top pots can carry moisturiser, lipbalm & facewash. Armani’s tiny little glass foundation sample bottles, with the inbuilt dabber, are great for a few days’ worth of perfume. - Shrink your deodorant. I emptied out an old lipstick case, sliced off a portion of stick deodorant and slotted it into the case. Unless you’re going on a long trip it should be more than enough & takes up hardly any room.

    Yes. I've been taking Clinique soap bars with me to travel for years. So compact and high quality. It is wonderful. You're the first person I've heard that does that also. I'm not sure how I started, but I used to get the smaller sample size bars when Clinique dealers would run their promotions (to get a bonus cosmetic bag and several samples). I just make sure to let the bar dry out on some type of elevated surface, like over a cup. When the bars are dry, you don't need to put them in any sort of case. For me, the sample size stick deodorants are bad. I must be heavy handed because the bar part always breaks off. So my one full size item is a full size stick deodorant. There really isn't that much more product on the full size ones.

    Reusable makeup eraser cloths, bug repellent wipes, SPF powder (both supergoop and colorscience make varieties), hand sanitizer wipes, and makeup removing balms (which are solids) are good options. Coconut oil will stay in a solid state if it’s not warm out, too, and can make a good moisturizer, makeup remover, or shave balm. Also any prescriptions can go in a 2nd bag (so contact lenses, prescription retinol creams, etc. don’t have to count against you 3-1-1 limit). Carry on travel is also when I go through all the Sephora samples that I seem to accumulate throughout the year 😂

    I was laughing with you on stealing your partner's bag space. I always pack both our liquids bag and put anything we share like bug spray, sunscreen, body lotion in his bag. I love those Amazon travel bottles too because if they are not completely full, you can squeeze out the air and save space. Another thing is that hand sanitizer (up to 12 oz) can be separate from your liquids bag!

    Hackety hack hack, take a sandwich size Ziploc bag, or snack size if you need less. Fill it up with cotton rounds then pour in your micellar water until saturated. Make sure all cotton rounds are covered well, but no excess. Zip her up, squeeze out any air and put in your carry on with other stuff NOT your 3-1-1, honest I did 2 months worth of them, which lasted me 5 months, because hey, I wasn't wearing make-up everyday. They didn't go bad, or get stale, just make sure to zip tight after each use.😀❤️😀 I've done this for much shorter trips as well. As long as they soak up your micellar or equivalent in your backpack, separately looks and, kind of?????? is a solid. More room for other stuff. When you squeeze it down, straight up takes no space in your non 3-1-1 backpack. I need the extra room for sensitive skin sunscreen which I decant into tsa approved bottles as you suggested.😀😀😀❤️😀😀😀

    I travel a lot and I have never used the 3-1-1 system. I have a zip up canvas pouch I use. I never had any problems. I have gotten my carry on pulled to the side for checks twice. Once, I got Cheese from Belgium, and the second time Leeches in NYC. Never for toiletries. Didn’t get my purchases taken away either. I actually brought a tub of body cream from Colombia that I was sure would be confiscated, but it didn’t. I don’t thinks is as strict as people think. I’m actually in Spain right now. I brought full sized deodorant, full sized Mac foundation, full sized tooth paste, full sized mascara. I did just bring sample size Clinique cream and cleansers.

    The link she gives is to a two-pack, but of different sizes (9.6"×3.1"×6.5" and 7.9"×2.4"×5.5"). She's using the larger of the two - which is NOT a quart. Only the smaller one is listed as "TSA approved".

    I travelled Denver to Italy with that sort of clear, zippered bag. No problem with TSA here or whatever they call it over there. I was super impressed with flying with carry on only for a week. They got me coming back because of the weight. It was all okay because I didn’t care if they lost it coming home.

    Although the rules are pretty much the same in other countries, be aware that TSA pre-check only applies to the US. Comes from experience of quite a few American passengers holding up the security line because they don't separate liquids etc. Also nowhere else in the world uses imperial units but although they quote the requirements in metric, it is effectively the same.

    Haha nice tip on "share with a partner"! Luckily my partner is pretty chill, so I tend to toss the shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste; anything we'll both use in his, then use mine for the rest. I do perm my hair, so I'm a bit more picky with my "non-negotiable" liquids I call it, BUT I have been trying out some solid options as well so they'll become my go-to options for flying 🙂

    2 quick tips: 1-if you have TSA Pre-check then you don’t have to worry too much about where you put your liquid bag since you don’t usually have to take it out. 2-if you have small children with you, you can bring extra liquids: water, yogurt, milk, apple sauce, etc. I will just go through extra screening.

    TSA regulations for a liquids bag dimensions state: 6"x9". The bag you recommend (which I really like) comes in a 2-pack. One is too small: 7.9"x5.5", and the other is too large: 9.6"x6.5".

  • @awaytogether

    Hi there, the TSA’s regulation is 1 quart. 6x9 is an approximated rule of thumb. You should have no issues with the larger of the two in that set. From the TSA “As long as the toiletry bag is the approximate dimensions of a quart-sized bag (6″ x 9″), you’ll be good to go through the checkpoint.” I found this article helpful: travelinglight.com/quart-size-bag/

  • @violas.86

    @@awaytogether officially it is still too big as 6x9 is for a flat bag. Once you add the depth of this type bag they are easily 1.5 times the size actually allowed. That being said it will often depend on the people/countries/airports. In our country we approach more as 10x100ml. So obviously that would require a larger bag. 🤷🏻‍♀️ It does get confusing at times.

    I thought chapstick counted as a non-solid. This is good to know. I have been putting things like that in too and in the UK I only have a ziplock bag to work with. 1 quart is a little bigger than our 1 litre allowance. It may not be a massive difference, but when you're trying to squeeze as many liquids as possible in, it makes a difference.
