How Long Do Travel Size Toiletries Last?

 
Picture
Are going on an extended trip but not sure how long the travel sized toiletries will last?  You are in luck!  Here is a general guideline based on a 20 day trip I completed a few years ago:

ITEM

Toothpaste


Mouth wash

Shampoo / Conditioner


Hair Spray

Mousse

Contact solution

Deodorant


Floss

Shaving Cream

Moisturizer


SIZE

.85 ounces (smallest size)


2 ounces

1.7 ounces


1.5 ounces

2 ounces

2 ounces

1.4 ounces
  .3 ounces

10 yards

2 ounces

2 ounces



TIME FRAME

7-10 days
(brushing 2x daily)

1 week

21 days
(short hair, washing daily)

7-10 days

1 month

14-17 days

2-3 months 
14-20 days

21 days

1 month

10-14 days



Of course the ranges depend on how much of an item you use at one time.  For example, a pea-sized portion of toothpaste is usually plenty and your tube will last much longer.  People with short hair require less shampoo/conditioner than people with long hair, and not everyone needs to wash their hair every day. 

With the exception of the 3 items, I took all of the above (some multiples) on the trip and they all fit in a TSA approved, quart sized bag.
