This question can be interpreted in three ways, either relating to efficiency, economy, or excess:
- Efficiency: What are the items you pack even though they are not the most efficient iterations?
(For example, I prefer to pack a hairbrush even though a comb is slimmer because it feels so much better in my hair.)
- Economy: What are items you pack even though they are not the least expensive versions?
(For example, I usually pack premium-priced hand sanitizer for pure vanity.)
- Excess: What are the items you pack even though they are unnecessary?
(For example, and this is a confession, I always pack my adorable fluffy bunny miniature Jellycat.)
Just curious!
I always decant a little bit of hair product from every single hair product I own. I probably could get away with two products (leave-in conditioner and a mousse), but my hair is curly and unpredictable depending on weather and humidity. I've been getting better at taking the most economical amounts for space saving, but it's often at least 5-6 products so I'm ready for anything.
