Travelling with your spray mists

Spray mists, nice things as they are, don't travel too well. Even the best made ones tend to leak thanks to the difference in air pressure pushing the liquid involuntarily out of the nozzle (unless if they are in a glass/aluminium bottle). However, there are a couple of things that you could do if you want to minimize the chance of it doing so:

  1. Carry it with you on board ie. hand carry luggage. Take it out and spray a few times throughout the journey to relieve the pressure.

  2. If you are packing it, unscrew the mist spray top. While it is detached from the bottle, spray contents back into the bottle ie. empty the spray top. Once the spray top is empty, screw it back. This makes it harder for the liquid to travel up and through the nozzle.

  3. Another option is to transfer into a small travel bottle that is glass and screw top. These are less likely to leak during travel. But it would mean that you may have to change to pour-on-hands-and-pat-on-face or using cotton pads for application, rather than spraying on.

  4. Always pack bottles upright and try not to stack one on top of another. If packed inside a luggage that is not a hard case, try to put them in the middle so that they are cushioned by clothes as luggages are usually stacked one on top of the other thus putting a lot of weight on the inner contents.

    Our skin tends to get drier while travelling thanks to the changes in weather as well as dry cabin air on board the aircraft. I seldom travel without this one:
    • Mukti Floral Hydrating Mist Toner: A blend of botanical extracts keeps skin hydrated and moist. Comes in a handy size which would be allowed on board the aircraft.
