getting through airport security with
liquids can be somewhat stressful but it
doesn't have to be
in this video i'm going to break down
tsa's rules for liquids and show you
what i pack in my tsa approved toiletry bag
bag [Music]
hey everybody i'm allie and my husband
and i just wrapped up six months of
full-time travel living out of nothing
but carry-on suitcases
during that time period we took
something like 40 flights so i've picked
up some tips and hacks along the way on
how to get through security with my
it's easy to get confused by tsa's rules
in regards to liquids in your carry-on
suitcase but it's pretty simple so i'm
gonna break it down the rule is three one
one one
one
all liquids gels creams aerosols and
pastes must be in a 3.4 ounce container
or smaller all of these compliant
liquids must go into a one
quart bag that is clear
plastic and zip top and you are only
allowed one of these bags per passenger
so two quick things in regards to this
three one one rule
the tsa states that a container size is
dictated by what is actually on the bottle
bottle
so there's no getting around having a
container that is larger than 3.4 ounces
even if what is inside the container is
less than three ounces this would need
to go inside of your checked bag or the
tsa will throw it away at security
additionally when it comes to liquids
the tsa counts food and drinks towards
this one court allotment so you've got
to think about things like snacks and
peanut butter as needing to be inside of
that single bag allotment for quote toiletries
okay
now that we've gotten through all the
rules here are a couple of tips and
hacks that i've picked up along the way
to help me get through security with my
toiletry bag
first and foremost and this may sound
pretty obvious but remember
not all of your toiletries and makeup
have to go in this bag
only your liquids have to go into your
single toiletry bag
with that
trade as a mini liquids for solid
product options as you can
for example
dry shampoo usually comes in an aerosol can
can
but if you can trade it for a dry
shampoo powder
which will one usually last you longer
and two does not have to go into your
bag because it is a powder and not a liquid
liquid next
next
if you're traveling with a partner or a
male companion typically they are going
to have less toiletry items than a
female let's just be real
be willing and ready to pawn off some of
your toiletries onto this partner if
they are open to it to help you meet
your one court allotment for the tsa
rules i don't know how many times i have
had nick take some of my toiletry items
and put them in his toiletry bags
just so i could get through tsa
also make sure your tsa approved
toiletry bag is in a quick access place
the last thing you want to do is be the
holdup in the security line because
you're digging through your carry-on bag
trying to find this toiletry bag
you know you have to take it out and
place it in the bin so just make sure
it's in a quick access spot i personally
carry mine in my personal item bag so in
my backpack so it's just quick access to
throw into the bin and get through
security very quickly lastly
don't be overly attached to anything
there's a chance that you encounter a
rule or an agent that's just overly
strict or
going to make you throw something away
rip some perfectly good olaplex shampoo
you just gotta be ready that any of
these items can go away which is fine
because you're going to be able to find
most of your toiletries in the places
that you're going
but just be ready to do that so don't
take anything that you would say is too
so now it's time to jump into what i
actually pack for toiletries and what
makes it into my one quart tsa approved
toiletry bag
first and foremost this is the actual
toiletry bag that i packed and put into
my carry-on for every single trip it is
a square clear bag that's plastic and
has the zipper on the top it's perfect
for tsa
it goes straight into my backpack um and
i got this on amazon for pretty cheap
honestly and it came with a couple of
different colors but this is my toiletry
bag from a liquid standpoint i really do
try to limit the amount of liquids that
i carry
in my toiletry bag i usually have some
sort of travel size shampoo and
conditioner if you are a person that can
use a shampoo bar i would personally
recommend that because it won't count
towards your liquids but my hair just
doesn't cooperate so i have to have just
the traditional shampoo and conditioner
i'm not picky when it comes to my
shampoo and conditioner so i just get
whatever travel size versions i can get
at like a pharmacy or you know walgreens
but if you have special shampoo and
conditioner that you have to have on
your trip you can get tsa approved 3.4
ounce bottles that you can refill with whatever
whatever
shampoo conditioner creams or gels that
you would like these are really great
options they're silicone they're squeeze tubes
tubes
so if you need to do that you can for
more hair products i honestly am pretty
low maintenance when it comes to my hair
but try to be as minimal as possible on
the number of hair styling products you
bring that are liquid-based for me i opt
for an all-in-one styler this one's by
olaplex so this is like a five in one
product that style smooths
heat protectant all of those things in
one so i only have to bring one item
this is in a 3.3 ounce bottle as well so
it comes in an already approved tsa
travel size of course i have to bring
toothpaste i typically like to have a
micellar water as well to help wash my
face particularly on the plane when i'm
not going to have access to a sink
or you know if i'm staying in a place
where the water is pretty questionable i
like to wash my face with a micellar
water so this one's from garnier and it
comes in the travel size as well and i
won't use this all of the time but it's
nice to have it as an option if i'm in a
pinch another item that i really like to
have in my toiletry bag is an acne spot
treatment and i know that sounds pretty
specific but when you're traveling and
you're trying a bunch of new food or
foods that you're not used to
let's just get real there's an
opportunity for pimples to pop up
so we have this origins spot treatment
it's in a very very small container but
this goes into my toiletry bag for every
trip a great multi-purpose item to have
when you travel is vaseline
vaseline can cover a multitude of things
it's great for chapped lips it's great
for minor cuts and burns so i always
have a small travel size container of
vaseline on me while we're traveling
especially in airplanes they can like
dry out your skin like crazy and
vaseline is perfect for that
so these are all of my technical liquids
as you can see it's not that much that
falls under what the tsa would identify
as liquids that have to go into my
toiletry bag
now for everything that's in my toiletry
bag that isn't technically a liquid
i always have a travel size deodorant
this sometimes goes in my bag and
sometimes i just throw this into like my
personal item bag because it's a solid
it doesn't matter where it goes in my
carry-on i also have
a face soap that's actually a bar this
one is from clinique and it's really
great because it lasts a long time
this thing lasted six months between me
and nick using it and it comes in a
handy travel case this i actually just
pack into my carry-on suitcase because
it's a solid it doesn't take up any room
in my toiletry bag
i also like to opt for a solid sunscreen
stick we wear sunscreen every day or at
least try to and having a stick form of
it allows us to make sure we always have
sunscreen on us
and this lasts forever as well and
sometimes sunscreen can get pretty
expensive in places depending on what
destination you're going to so i like to
have a small option for sunscreen in my
bag and the stick works out really well
as a solid another big shift that i made
that was a game changer in space in my
toiletry bag was changing from
aerosol travel size cans of dry shampoo
to a
powder based dry shampoo this one's from
aveda it's two ounces and i've had this
thing for four months and i still have
half of the container left of powder
somehow dry shampoo powder just lasts longer
longer
and it doesn't count against your liquid
rule for your tsa toiletry bag another
item that i switched to a solid option
was for face moisturizer so
most of the time face moisturizer comes
in a cream which would count towards
your liquids but i switched to a stick
moisturizer which this one is from coco
kind and i just got this at target it
works perfect for moisturizing your skin
and your face but being a solid option
i always have chapstick in my toiletry
bag i always have like 500 chapsticks
let's be honest they're all in different
spots in my bag chapsticks count as
solids so i just have these hidden
throughout my suitcase toiletry bag
anywhere and everywhere i can fit a
chapstick i have one the last two
essentials in my toiletry bag are my
toothbrush which should be no shock and
a razor this toothbrush is a phillips
electric toothbrush that comes in a
handy travel case
and then this is just a disposable razor
that i can actually change the razor
heads on
so i typically just bring a couple of
extra with me but these are the last two
items that i would say fall in my
toiletry bag so that's all the items
that i pack from a toiletry standpoint
and because of how i've optimized what
products i've chosen between liquids and
solids you can see that my tsa toiletry bag
bag
isn't even halfway full with liquids so
i'm honestly able to pack a majority of
my toiletries into this bag
like this
honestly this is my toiletry bag with
everything liquid and solid i can pull
this out during security and no
questions asked it gets through security
99 of the time
the only toiletry item that doesn't make
it into that bag is this face soap bar
and part of it's just because the shape
of the container is a little weird
so if you can optimize your products
between liquids and solids
you should have no issue getting through tsa
tsa
