Dry Toiletries for Flights

The TSA’s ban on liquids left many wondering if and how to bring toiletries on board flights. Believe it or not, there’s a way to transport your toiletries with you, without getting hassled. A simple alternative to liquid toiletries is dry toiletries–you don’t have to bother with the allotted 3-ounce containers for liquids. So, can’t fly without toothpaste? Bring powdered toothpaste or a pre-pasted disposable toothbrush. There’s ToothFresh Dry Powdered Toothpaste, on Amazon for $8, or DentaKit’s pre-pasted toothbrush, just $6 for 10.

Need a facial cleanser to freshen up mid-flight? Take some cleansing cloths. There’s the Mustela cleansing cloths or Biore Cleansing Cloths, both $7. There are even shampoo sheets, like the ones from We Live Like This for $6, and babies’ sunblock sticks like the one from Baby Einstein for $4. With alternatives like these, you can still bring the toiletries you need on the plane, even with the TSA’s liquid ban in place.
