Review on ๐Ÿ”’ GLOBEGEAR Leak-Proof Storage Containers: Compliant & User-Friendly Accessories by Nicole Bao

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect holdall, fits in bags and suitcases

If you look up the word overpacker in the dictionary, you'll find a photo of me struggling to stuff more stuff into my suitcase! I'm the infamous OPE: Packer Extraordinary. But I'm trying something new for a 2.5 week trip to Japan. We are constantly on the go, so only hand luggage. MY GOD! I had a heartbeat just thinking about taking so little. To breathe. Just breath. We have. First, I love that the accessory includes a small funnel and a tiny spatula. I've never seen this in other holdalls I've bought and they made it easy to pour liquids and creams into the containers provided. And while I have yet to travel, the kit is advertised as TSA compliant. (You'll hear me grumble in the future if I'm not.) The plastic is thick, the bag is solid, and the zipper is good quality. The bag also has a little plus so I can continue my cramming practice for the rest of my life. Can't confirm the quality of the leak protection yet, but will update my review after the ride. You can see what I reduced in the photos above. (BB Cream - Tube; Face Cream - Tube; Murad Exfoliant - Tube; Toner - Tube; Face Cleanser - Spray; Hair Oil - Tube; Emu Oil - Extra Tube; and last but not least, I add this Amazing Rinse Concentrate Mouth Glister in a separate spray bottle .) I used all the containers in the bag except the dispenser bottle. I switched it to another atomizer and also used an extra tube. It would be great if the company offered different bottle caps to choose from so you can use what you need. A few notes. I didn't pack the shampoo and conditioner because I bought the bar versions (Lush) specifically so I can pack other items in my liquid carry-on. I've also used solid versions of laundry soap/shaving cream (Dr. Bonner's), sunscreen (Neutrogena), deodorant, and perfume (VS Crayons). I LOVE it and highly recommend it.
