How Much Cosmetics Is Needed for One Week of Vacation?
Packing stress before your vacation? Especially when it comes to cosmetics, it's not easy to estimate what you really need. How much shampoo, lotion or face cream do you really need without packing too much or too little? With our Travelpods and the following guidelines, you can ensure that you are perfectly equipped without taking unnecessary baggage with you.
Disclaimer: Everyone has individual needs and habits - the actual consumption of care products may therefore vary. Our figures are general guidelines to help you pack.
For One Week:
1. Shampoo - 40 ml
An average hair wash uses approx. 10 ml of shampoo. For a week with four hair washes, you should expect to use 40 ml. Our Pump (55 ml) is perfect for easy dosing.
2. Conditioner - 40 ml
If you use conditioner, approx. 10 ml per application is also sufficient. For a week, the 55 ml is enough, which you can easily store in a Pump Pod.
3. Body Wash - 55 ml
Depending on your shower routine, you will need approx. 8 ml per shower. For a week, we recommend a Large (55 ml) for showering daily.
4. Body Lotion - 30-50 ml
You generally need less body lotion than body wash, approx. 5 ml per application. For a week you can get by with a Medium Pod;(30 ml) - but for daily use you can also use a Large Pod (55 ml).
5. Cleanser - 30-40 ml
Cleanser can be used sparingly - approx. 3-5 ml per application is sufficient. One Medium Pod (30 ml) is sufficient for one week of single use, a Large Pod (55 ml) is recommended for more frequent use.
6. Face cream - 10 ml
Face creams are very long lasting - approx. 1 ml per day is sufficient. A Small Pod (10 ml) will easily cover your needs for a week.
7. Serums - 10 ml
As with face creams, the consumption of serums is also low. A Small Pod (10 ml) is ideal for daily care.
8. Toner - 30 ml
For toner you need approx. 4 ml per application. One Medium Pod (30 ml) lasts for a week, even if used generously.
9. Sunscreen - 55 ml
With sunscreen, it really depends on how much area you want to protect. For face and body, you should calculate with approx. 7-10 ml per application. One to two Pumps (55 ml) are ideal for a week, depending on the time of year and vacation destination/activity.
10. Hand Cream - 10 ml
Hand cream is used in small quantities, less than 1 ml per application is needed. A small pod (10 ml) fits perfectly and is easy to take with you on the go.
For longer trips:
Planning to be on the road for more than a week? Our Large Pods (55 ml) are ideal as refills for the Pump Pods so that you are always sufficiently supplied even on longer adventures. This not only saves you space, but also plastic waste.
Conclusion
Pack smarter, not heavier. If you estimate your cosmetics quantities well and use our practical Travelpods, you will not only be organized, but also save space in your suitcase.
