Packing a carry-on toiletry bag? These are the 15 products our beauty director won't travel without

Erborian BB cream, Color Wow Dreamcoat mini, Byoma face wash and Sol de Janeiro body butter mini.

We've all been there: booking a hand-luggage only fare to save a bit of money, only to come to pack and find yourself in a full-blown 100ml liquid limit nightmare. Squeezing a complete beauty routine into a bag the size of a sandwich bag, without leaving your holiday essentials at home, takes some serious editing skills.

When you're trying to fit your must-have hair products for humidity alongside your go-to everyday best perfumes, packing light can be impossible. But if anyone's mastered it, it's our Beauty Director, Sarah Cooper-White. Ahead of a trip abroad, Sarah set herself a challenge: fly hand-luggage only, and find every beauty essential she needed from a single Boots run. No overstuffed toiletry bags, no last-minute airport beauty buys - just a streamlined edit of holiday-ready buys that tick every box (and every liquid restriction).
