I just some run of the mill bag, its just a matter of keeping the
amount of stuff down, electric toothbrush is the biggest thing in
mine. It used to be hairbrush till I got a collapsible one.

Default Toiletry kit

I use one of those nylon zip-up shaving kit bags, but always seem to
have trouble packing that big lump, especially since it usually goes
in toward the end, with last-minute stuff. Do you have a toiletry kit
you really like, that's easy to pack?

Don't use one at all any more. Just bung the things in the case
separately. Anything likely to leak, like shampoo, just put them in
individual plastic bags.

If you're flying these days, the plastic bag is mandatory for liquids,
gels, and semiliquid things like toothpaste.

I recently flew out of Indianapolis, where a helpful agent was handing
out plastic bags to people who had forgotten or were clueless. This
was also the first time I've gone through that machine that puffs air
at you to discover plastic explosives you might have neglected to
leave at home.

I like to keep all that stuff together somehow. If not, the nail
clippers end up getting lost somewhere and I find them after I get
home.

I always pack the pajamas and the toiletries bag last. That way, I can
find them immediately when I arrive and leave the heavy unpacking to
the next day.

I can attest to the fact they won't allow a tube of toothpaste. Nothing
over three ounces. They threw out our toothpaste from our carry on bag
- even in its clear plastic bag.

Try this link
http://www.llbean.com/webapp/wcs/sto...=pp&featE25-tn

That should take you to the LL Bean toiletry bags directly, if not go to
www.llbean.com
click travel and luggage
click toiletry bags
click personal organizers

These are the best there are, in my opinion, and they open in a way that you
can hang them right in the shower or by the sink. They are nearly
indestructible. They are a common favorite for high school graduation gifts
here in Maine.
