How to Pack a Travel Shaving Kit with a Soap Travel Case

Quick answer

Pack a travel shaving kit by using a soap travel case to protect your solid shave bar and a travel size shave cream for a smooth, irritation-free shave. This keeps your toiletries dry, organized, and TSA-friendly.

5 steps to pack your travel shaving kit

1. Choose your shave format: Decide between a solid shave bar (lighter, no liquid limit) or a travel size shave cream (familiar lather). For a bar, you'll need a soap travel case. Check your airline's liquid rules: creams over 3.4 oz (100ml) must go in checked luggage.
2. Pack the soap travel case: Place your solid shave bar inside the FFS Essentials Soap Travel Case. Close the lid tightly so no moisture seeps out. The case allows airflow so the bar dries between uses. If the bar is still wet, pat it dry with a towel before closing the case to avoid mold.
3. Add your travel size shave cream: If using cream, pack the Moisturise & Glide: Shave Cream - Travel Size (50ml) in a clear quart-size bag. It's well under the TSA liquid limit and won't leak if the cap is secure. Double-check the cap is tight; place the bottle in a small zip bag for extra leak protection.
4. Secure your razor: Wrap your razor head in a small cloth or use a blade cover to prevent nicks. For a safety razor, disassemble the blade and store it separately in a hard case. Never pack a loose blade in your toiletry bag—it can cut through soft items and cause injury.
5. Organize in a dry pouch: Place the soap case, cream, and razor in a dedicated toiletry pouch or a small mesh bag. Keep the soap case upright to prevent any residual moisture from leaking. A mesh bag allows air circulation, helping everything dry faster after use.
