Travel light toiletries

I weighed all these items to get a sense of how heavy my cosmetics bag would be. Excluding the weight of the bag, these essentials weighed in at a hefty kilo! Wow. How much do your cosmetics weigh?

  • 50 ml moisturiser in glass jar = 229g
  • 15 ml eye cream in glass jar = 88g
  • 50 ml perfume in glass bottle = 202g
  • Dental floss 25 m = 16g
  • 50 ml body lotion in plastic bottle = 65g
  • 30 ml hand lotion in tube = 34g
  • Lipstick = 39g
  • Compact shampoo bar = 56g
  • Toothpaste 20g tube = 24g
  • Toothbrush electric = 114g
  • Cream eye shadow = 15g
