Make-up Travel Tips for Carry-Ons
Traveling long distance flights are tedious. Within six hours of your flight, you are so restless. When booking flights , I look for flights that correlate to my body rhythm of home. even though the flying time zone is day, my body says good night. With that in mind, my booked flights are planned that I will fall asleep naturally after 6 to 7 hours into the 18 hour flight. The first hours are usually layovers and flight changes and by 8 hours into the trip, I am settled for the flight over the ocean, whichever one it might be.
After dozing awhile, you need a break, whether it is to walk up and down or just make it to the restroom, you need to move your legs. And there are certain items you NEED in your carryon.
Purchase all travel size items. Make it easy on yourself as you go through customs. Have items in a clear plastic container. Remember the rule 3-1-1 of TSA. All liquids must be in a resealable container that is 3.4 ounces or less and all containers must fit in one clear, plastic, resealable 1-quart-sized bag. Simple .

Your non liquid items can be carried on have no limits You can organized them in your bag as you normally would. For faster moving through customs, I have separate clear bags and lay them both (liquid and non-liquid) in the container with the items I don’t want x-rayed. I found it goes much more smoothly.
What’s in those bags ? Travel size toothbrush and paste, mints, facial wipes with cleanser, baby powder, stick deodorant, moistures, lip balm, mascara, small hairbrush and tieback for hair. A scarf or roll-up ball cap helps if your hair just won’t cooperate and sunglasses. That’s it. Knowing the flight is just for getting to your destination, all you really need are the essentials that will help you survive till you get to your room.
