3 Tips for Travelling Light

3 Tips for Travelling Light

Here at ScentedTowel.com, we've done A LOT of travelling!  So, we know that nothing spoils a trip quite like a suitcase that weighs more than all of your travelling companions combined.  (Plus, we know that those "heavy bag" airline fees can be a killer!)

So, how do you travel light, without skipping on any of the essentials?

1.  Skip the face wash

That big bottle takes up a bunch of space -- and, worse, it's likely to leak all of your clothes.  So, save yourself some precious suitcase space with our makeup remover wipes.  They're pre-moistened with stuff that's going to leave your skin clean and moisturized in one easy step.  However, they're all individually wrapped, so they won't leak anywhere.  (And as an added benefit, you won't have to lug a washcloth around with you!)

2.  Don't fold your clothes

Mom will probably be shocked to see this tip, but it really works!  Traditional folding takes up a ton of extra space, AND it creates wrinkles.  So, combat both problems by laying each item of clothing down flat on top of each other, and then roll everything up.  (Think of it like making a giant clothing burrito!)  You'll be able to save so much space that you might even be able to downgrade to a smaller suitcase!

3.  Skip the toiletry case

Those cases may look fancy, but they take up a huge chunk of space.  Instead, pack your essentials in several plastic bags.  That way, you can stuff each bag into a corner, instead of looking for a giant spot to store your case.

Want an even more streamlined solution?  Look for pre-packaged toiletries (like our scented towels!) so that you don't use up an army of Ziplocks every time you head out of town.
