I've solely spent a few meltingly hot days in Taiwan - no complaints about that, but like all short-stay, long-haul trips it was a packing defy.
Those little plastic bags have sorted out my carry-on and saved a few kilograms, but the toilet bag stowed in my suitcase and distinct makeup kit is always full to bursting.
It seems no matter how often I try to downsize my beauty selections, a stack of what I take never gets used. The salts for the bath I rationality I might soak in, the nail polish for touch-ups, the rainbow of lipsticks and shadows, who was I kidding?
Which probably makes me a contemptible person to offer advice (in which case check out our frequent flyer's tips opposite), or perhaps I should just muse on to follow my own guidelines. Carefully pre-assemble a kit, then don't blow it by throwing in a stack of superfluous extras at the last minute. Here's my tips on what you'll literally use.
