When it comes to flying, I used to be a carry-on only type of girl.ย I would purposefully underpack, carefully planning my trip wardrobe so that I could bypass baggage claim and avoid lugging heavy suitcases around.
However– as we all know –in recent years, this mode of travel has gotten tougher to pull off.ย I officially gave up on carry-on only when TSA started restricting liquids.ย I mean, a girl must have her beauty products, and figuring out just how many ounces are okay and in what quantities is just more trouble than it’s worth.
So I was very intrigued by mini kittour’s Just in Case collection of TSA-approved, leak-proof bottles and containers. ย Since they’re TSA-friendly, they make carry-on only travel a possibility again, and the part that really caught my attention? ย “LEAK-PROOF!” ย After all, travel can be rough-and-tumble, and I can’t count the number of times I’ve arrived at my destination only to find that my toiletries spilled mid-trip. ย As a result, I’ve developed a complicated bagging system, which entails stuffing my suitcase with more zippies than an old lady’s purse. ย Hardly the chic, sophisticated vibe I like to project when I’m traveling…
So are they truly leak-proof? ย Well, in my experience, yes. ย The typical, flip-top caps close completely, and even the trickier pump cap and spray cap have unique locking mechanisms that help them stay put. ย Plus, all the tops fit the bottles snugly, eliminating under-the-cap leakage. Also, with a variety of sizes and shapes, mini kittour offers something for almost every product. ย A few of the options:
3.3 ounce/ 100 ml bottles– best suited for shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body lotion, makeup remover, nail polish remover, facial cleanser, or moisturizer
Twist ‘n Lock lotion pump
***
2.7 ounce/ 80 ml bottle– best suited for body wash, mouthwash, cleanser, foundation, moisturizer, or hair styling products
Shown with flip-top pump cap, suitable for hairspray, styling products, or fragrance
***
1 ounce/ 30 ml jar– best suited for face cream, serum, specialty face products, body scrub, or body butter
1 ounce/ 30 ml bottle– best suited for shampoo, conditioner, cleaners, body wash, or styling products
0.17 ounce/ 5 ml jar– best suited for moisturizer or night cream
Overall, I give this collection a big thumbs up. ย I am curious as to how they would hold up to multiple uses over a longer period of time, but so far I am a big fan. ย Each container retails for between $5 and $8, so they’re a reasonable investment for anyone who travels on a semi-regular basis. ย I’m very comfortable recommending them for any fashionable housewives on the go.
