10 Travel Life Hacks You Must Know: Packing
1. Wrap your chargers in a hair band.
This will prevent your chargers becoming knotted together and losing their shape. Applying a hair band around your chargers will also save space as the shape will become tighter and smaller rather than being free and loose. You can also use a clear elastic hair band or elastic bands rather than an hair band, sometimes a hair band can be too thick.
2. Wear your heaviest shoes and jacket to the airport.
If you take your heaviest items of clothing to the airport with you, you will be able to save your luggage allowance along with space inside your case so you can fit in more clothing pieces or more of your favourite makeup.
3. Put cling film in the lid of lotions and liquids.
I always get paranoid that my creams and liquids will end up exploding in my case on the flight and the products will end up going all over my clothes, therefore I place tape around the edge with cling film covering lid so none can escape from the bottle.
4. Necklaces can go in between a piece of cling film with a piece on top as well.
If you like to take your favourite necklaces along with you, place a piece of cling down and pop your necklace on top in the center. When your necklace is down, grab another piece of cling film and put it on the top so your necklace won't tangle together and become knotted.
5. Place cotton wool on the top of your compact makeup.
As your suitcase will be getting bashed around on the flight and in the airport, your compact makeup (highlighters, bronzers, powders) may smash and break, therefore place cotton wool or a few cotton buds on top and close the lid and this issue won't take place.
6. Get a tictac holder to store your hair grips.
I never used to know where I should keep my grips in my case because I always managed to loose them before I even got there so storing them in this pot is the perfect place to maintain them with you.
7. Stack bras on top of each and fold the cups over to insert your pants inside.
By stacking your bras on top of each other and inserting your pants in between them, this is going to allow more room inside your suitcase. The shape of your bras will also remain the same instead of becoming odd shapes from the way you lay them in your case.
8. Place valuable or expensive things inside an empty chap stick holder.
If you have an chap stick which is empty, clean it out and this will allow you to keep any notes, expensive earrings or small valuable items inside the stick. People will assume it is a chap stick so they won't think about anything being inside if you leave it with your things on the beach while you go in the beach, or in the pool, etc.
9. Use a button to place your earrings through the holes.
If you have an old button somewhere in your house, place your earrings you aren't wearing inside the holes and place the button in your makeup bag or with all your other jewellery pieces inside your case. I am definitely using this hack this year seeing as I manage to lose my earrings every time I arrive on the other side - they honestly vanish in my case.
10. Buy a cheap pill container and store your rings or earrings.
Relating back to life hack 9, buy a pill box (the ones that older people use with the seven boxes for the different days). Place your earrings and rings inside each day to keep them all in one place. If you want to be EXTRA organised, you can use the days to tell you when to wear each ring!!
