READER QUESTION
Q Travel-sized products are handy, but so expensive. What’s the best alternative?
A Compact versions of toiletries such as shampoo and conditioner can cost much more per ml than full-sized products. Whenever you stay in hotels, take the complimentary mini shower gel bottles home. Once they’re finished, wash them out and pour your normal shampoo and conditioner into them, for the next time you go away. Alternatively, you can buy cheap refillable bottles and use those instead.
