The Best Travel-Size Beauty Products That Won't Get Swiped by TSA
Take your custom toiletry set to go.
When looking for the best travel size beauty products, there are some limitations — namely, what comes available in a 3.4-ounce sized container. While you may be tempted to bring your entire beauty product arsenal with you on your trip, if you're not already checking a bag, packing regular-sized products in your carry-on is a big no-no. So to help you out in getting past TSA scot-free, we're rounding up the best travel size beauty products for all of your skin, makeup, and hair needs.

Read on to shop the best travel size beauty products — all guaranteed to make the 3.4-ounce limit.
Skincare
To ensure that the skies are safe from your massive jar of La Mer, transfer your skincare staples into mini containers like Morfone's Travel Bottles Kit ($10). The set comes equipped with a funnel, spoons, labels, and a clear zipper bag that doubles as a toiletry bag. Not only does it keep the process clean but it also takes the guesswork out of exactly which jar contains your favorite eye cream.

Makeup
Since most foundation bottles are under three ounces, your favorite can probably fly with no problem. But save space in that tiny Ziploc bag by trading your larger mascaras and setting sprays for smaller versions, like They're Real! Magnet Extreme Lengthening Mascara by Benefit ($15) and Urban Decay's All Nighter Setting Spray ($16), which house the exact same luxury-grade formulas as the ones on your vanity.
You won't have to separate out your pressed powders and shadows, but in general, palettes are much easier to travel with and don't take up much room in your carry-on, so opt for a face and eye combo set like Hourglass's Ambient Lighting Edit ($85).

Bodycare
Realistically, you can use the body washes and lotions your hotel of choice provides, but if it's an AirBnB situation, use a few of the empties above to store your favorite formulas. Seek out a few mini rollerball fragrances from Nest's Mini Fragrance Discovery Set ($40) so that airport security won't nab your larger flacon, and though we recommend self-tanning before hitting the road, in the case that you can't, individually-packaged sachets like Dr Dennis Gross's Alpha Beta Glow Pads for Face ($38) and Body ($46) will prevent the bronzy liquid from leaking onto your clothes.
Haircare
Packing your favorite hair products can be the hardest part, so we recommend opting for an all-in-one kit like this one by Alterna ($25), which includes a shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in-conditioner.
