What's In Your Quart Sized Bag?

Ever since TSA has implemented regulations about liquids in carry-on luggage, I have adjusted my strategy for packing.  Since I previously wrote about what’s in our carry-on luggage (click here to read more), I thought I would let you know what is packed in our quart sized bag that will be in my over the shoulder (personal item) bag.





Here’s the list:

• Emery board—I take an old one that can be thrown away.
• Lip balm with SPF 45.
• Tinted lip gloss—this is part of my daily make-up routine.
• Kids 30 SPF sunscreen in a stick.  3 of these are in the bag.
• Tube of mascara—again, part of my daily make-up routine.
• Tide stick—2 of these are in the bag.
• Eyebrow brush. 
• Tweezers and nail clippers.
• Travel sized contact solution.
• Spare contacts.
• Glasses.
• Tube of triple antibiotic ointment.
• Travel size hand lotion.
• Tube of Daily Defense Anti-Oxidant Tinted Moisturizer SPF 30 by Patricia Wexler—this is also part of my daily make-up routine which is all I use except for mascara and lip gloss.  I’m very low maintenance when it comes to make-up and I love this all in one product that I use year round.

Some alternatives might include a travel size hand cleanser, but we use wipes and those don’t need to be in the quart size bag.

While our travel party is a party of 3, we technically could have 3 quart size bags, but we can get by on 1.  When the boy needed liquid medication, it was in a bag by itself.

Other items, like hair products, deodorant, toothpaste, etc. are packed in our checked bags.
