TikToker Lauren, known from the account @JeffandLaurenShow, shared packing tips with over 1.8 million viewers. She allegedly learned these from a flight attendant.
It’s about securing cosmetics with balloons. According to her, you just need to cut off the end of a balloon and stretch it over the top of a bottle or jar.
Thanks to this, the flexible material will prevent liquids from leaking, and the contents of the cosmetic bag will remain clean. Although some internet users jokingly call them "condoms for cosmetics," many people have found this trick to be brilliant.
Lauren also advises packing vertically and stacking clothes on top of each other. This organization method saves space and keeps baggage tidy. Another surprising idea is to use diapers to secure wine bottles. By wrapping the base and neck of the bottle with diapers, we reduce the risk of breaking the glass and potentially spilling the drink.
Internet users do not share enthusiasm for the unusual method
However, not everyone is convinced by these methods. "I checked the price of diapers, and they're more expensive than the wine I drink," noted one commenter. Others suggest replacing diapers with bubble wrap or special alcohol transport packaging.
There were also warnings against transporting glass bottles in checked luggage, regardless of the precautions.
