"Continuing on with the toiletries, packing them especially with security these days, can be a little tedious. What the rule of thumb is you can take a quart or liter size clear plastic bag and each of your liquid products can be 3 ounces, and that's for your carry on. Whatever you buy on the other side of security, that's no big deal. I say invest in bottled water companies now in airports. Like I was saying, the disposable things. Moist wipes, I think they are invaluable. You use them everywhere, especially if you're in a hot humid muggy place. Good for just cleaning up yourself and good for just anti bacterial kind of stuff. Toilet paper always comes in handy. To help with the collapse, just collapse the cardboard tube in there and it backs really quickly and conveniently. Pop that into a plastic bag to keep it dry. Females, I say hair ties and hair bands. If you're in a place where you're swimming through the air, that can be a life saver. Like before, I said compartmentalize. That is the key. Just keeping everything organized and ready to go. Knowing where things are, that is key. Little makeup kits and little things that you can throw away at the drop of a hat."
